Kylie Northover The Age (Australia) 04/16/2019
Quietly funny and razor-sharp, it's one of the best mockumentary comedies in years. Go to Full Review
Benji Wilson Daily Telegraph (UK) 04/16/2019
4/5
The script is laden with subtle but pithy observations offset, plus the performances are full of tenderness, both for their characters and, at times, for each other. Go to Full Review
Michael Hogan Daily Telegraph (UK) 04/16/2019
5/5
Beneath the loud and frequent laughter, the Coopers' creation also has genuine heart. It glows with warm affection for its characters, while touching on issues such as rural poverty and mental health. Go to Full Review

Victoria Segal Sunday Times (UK) 04/16/2019

This Country is full of pin-sharp observations about the endless small boredoms of life in a tiny community. And there are profound insights from a maudlin Kurtan about missing something when it's gone; "like Blockbusters." Go to Full Review
