But when it comes to being let go from TV shows, actors normally understand TPTB have their reasons, and it's not because of them misbehaving on set or because it's something personal.

This is the only way they can redeem the show. It faces axing within the next two years if they don't go back to its roots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viewership plays a large part in the cancellation of a series, and dwindling ratings are not something the network executives need worry about...

I don't agree with the proposition that the show has strayed from its roots. I feel the show just takes an updated approach to its roots. It's just moved with the times.

I do find the show has become more dark and destructive in recent years, and can be very unwatchable at times, but it still deals with troubled teens, troublesome teens and it still revolves around the lives of Summer Bay House inhabitants, the school, beach and surf club etc. The show was never a show about fostering itself but about a fostering family who took on wayward foster children.

Skylover Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Zac and Leah shouldn't be the next Tom and Pippa though. The writers shouldn't try and make them foster parents just because the actors are willing to stay long term and live in Summer Bay House at the moment.

I feel the show just takes an updated approach to its roots. It's just moved with the times. For me, I feel that it has strayed from its roots. Compared to what the show was like 20 years ago, it's almost like watching a different show. I think that it's all very well updating a show so that it doesn't become out of date, but I feel like you can do that without changing what the show was originally about. The Home and Away I loved from 20 years ago was a warm show that centred around families, friendships and fostering. Today's show mainly centres around bad boys and violence and it has a cold, shallow feel. There are some moments that remind me of the show I loved, but nowhere near as many as there once was.
