Wentworth Review
Oh boy. Wentworth has really jumped the shark now. This has to be the worst episode yet. It was ridiculously predictable and the writing was mediocre. It was so obvious that Will would get stuck in the elevator. Plus, it was lame that Vera ever found such good footage of Sonia hiding the knife in the first place. It was also painfully obvious that Liz was setting Sonia up. The Kaz character is terrible. She reminds me of the Myra Desmond character in Prison. Neither should have ever been top dog.
The old Kaz character was so good. The old Marie Winter character was so good. In Wentworth, they are both terrible. Kaz definitely needs to go. It is the only possible way to save this show from stinking. The episode was terrible. It scores a very low 4 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of Wentworth now.
