    "Perfect"
    By random_lobster, Sep 27, 2006
    I thought this was a really great episode. Joss once again gets into trouble and tries to find a way out, only to put himself in even more trouble. The episode has some classic quotes such as:
    Kelly: Chris, please explain to David why I could never have a relationship with Joss.
    Chris: Because she\'s not clinically insane.

    and

    Man with drugs: I\'ll have your badge!
    Kelly (to Matt): Aw...he thinks he\'s in New York!

    I loved this episode but was disapointed that it was the third last episode ever of Blue Heelers. The acting in it was fantastic, particuarly by Danny Racco (Joss).
    It was a great storyline.
    Fantastic episode!!!! 10/10moreless

  • Joss comes up with yet another moneymaking sceme, which of course ends badly, and Tom convalesces.

    "Mediocre"
    By scarlettslegacy, Jul 03, 2006
    It's race day at Mt Thomas, and Joss, after befriending a man who claims to be a professional punter who never loses a bet, bets on his advice - winning a considerable amount of money. He takes the punter's advice again, and ends up winning a small fortune. Except it turns out the man is a crook who specialises in race fixing. On top of that, he has his old crime boss on his trail, and Joss soon gets into trouble thanks to his eagerness for a quick cash fix.

    I stopped watching Blue Heelers altogether after Paul Bishop left, and had been watching it intermittedly a year before that, and this episode reminded me of why I had stopped watching. The characters didn't have the same comaraderie that the old characters did, and I couldn't relate to them; I certainly couldn't sympathise for Joss's financial plight the same way I did Adam's several years ago.

    A very average episode. 5/10.moreless
