McLeod's Daughters (2001–2009)

McLeod's Daughters posterReview score: 77%

Plot

The four female leads carry the heart of each story throughout the series, which Posie believes reflects much of the truth of what's happening in Australia."The timing was right for this type of show - a rural-based series which showcases a predominately female cast and tells stories that reflect the lives and desires of contemporary Australian women," said Posie.
