Synopsis

CrashBurn was an Australian 13-part drama series airing on Network Ten, about surviving long-term relationships in an age where multiple partners and multiple orgasms are considered a birthright. It starred Catherine McClements and Aaron Blabey as Rosie and Ben Harfield, a couple whose marriage troubles send them to a counsellor. Most of the episodes are shown in two parts: half 'He says' and half 'She says'. Most of the episodes used flashbacks to an earlier part of their relationship when the trouble started. Also appearing is the couple, Candice and Richard, who are also seeking counselling and run into Rosie and Ben's lives. There are numerous problems arising in the course of the series, not least Ben's affair with Rosie's best friend, Abby. Although the series was not a huge hit, it was noted for its fine performances.

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing
Paynbob It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
Intriguer Crashburn was a 13-part series which aired in Australia in 2003. Like many other Australian TV shows though, the timeslot for the show was dragged back to a later time after only a few episodes.It was unfortunate because I found the show to be rather intriguing. The acting was quite believable and that is always a plus in any television show.Crashburn's main stars, Catherine McClements and Aaron Blabey, play Rosie and Ben Harfield, a married couple going through a difficult stage when their marriage hits a brick wall. One of the most intriguing aspect about Crashburn, was it's ability to delve into the characters lives, in a "he says"/"she says" kind of way.I enjoyed Crashburn, and although it isn't my most favourite show, it certainly deserves some credit.
sliat_1981 I thought this was fantastic Australian drama. All of the actors were really good in there roles. Especially Sacha Horler as 'Abby" who was lovely. It's sad this didn't do well. People seemed to dump it for American garbage. Thankfully it has been released on DVD, so we can enjoy it all over again. This was the first TV show in a long time that I simply HAD to watch. There were no slackers in this cast everyone did their best. Catherine McClements was brilliant. Still her character was a bit unsympathetic. After her and her husband seemed to be doing better, she went and had an affair with her married ex. He got revenge by sleeping with Abby (her best friend). Sadly, I never saw the last episode, so I don't know if it was resolved. I'm hoping to get it on DVD soon.
arthurdaley69 I saw the first episode of this on late night Irish TV last night and I thought it was a bit quirky and not nearly as bad as the reviewer in 2003 seems to think it was.There were some Tarantinoesque touches with the same scenes being revisited from different characters angles which I suppose would have been considered more clever if it was original, but this technique added a nice touch for a TV series.Maybe RTE have consigned it to the graveyard shift for a reason, but then they tend to show 'Water Rats' at a similar hour and thats not the worst thing I've ever seen so I will certainly watch it some more to see how it develops!
mgoodhew This production has the humour, pathos, wit and intelligence of Cold Feet (1997) (TV) combined with the interesting double-perspective on the story along the lines of Mystery Train (1989) or Go (1999). It's a riveting and fulfilling TV show concerning friendships, relationships and existentialism. Unfortunately it's been given a ghastly and unattractive late-night time slot by Channel 10. Despite the traditionally crippling curse of being Australian made, this show's quality easily qualifies it for primetime.
