Information, storyline and cast

A collaboration between American, Australian and New Zealand filmmakers, Cleverman is a futuristic drama television series. It is based on an original concept by Ryan Griffin, written by Michael Miller, Jon Bell and Jane Allen and produced by Goalpost Pictures, Pukeko Pictures, Red Arrow International and Sundance Studios. The series premiered on June 1, 2016 on SundanceTV in the US, and on June 2, 2016 on ABC AU, while the world premiere took place at the Berlin Film Festival on February 17, 2016 with its first season. In the US, season 2 premiered on June 28th, 2017 and in Australia the following day on June 29th, 2017.

The series' storyline is set in the near dystopian future and chronicles a struggle of a group of non-human creatures, so-called “hairies”, who have to survive in the world where humans are growing increasingly hostile and want to ultimately get rid of them. The “hairies” are confined to The Zone and as Koen (Hunter Page-Lochard) discovers his special abilities, he becomes the natural leader for the oppressed group. Two estranged brothers who are forced to reunite in their fight for survival are at the center of the plot. The cast is also led by Iain Glen, Frances O'Connor, Deborah Mailman, Rob Collins and Stef Dawson. Otherworldly beings emerge into the dystopian world portrayed in Cleverman.

What a shame there's no third season! The show got me completely hooked, despite being confusing at the very beginning and despite all the violence it shows. Over here in Europe it is now on our public library streaming service. I had never heard about it before.

Really enjoyed season 1. Season 2 floundered a bit on the second half, and left me tired of Koen's random, poorly thought out actions. I did love the last moments of the finale, and hope season 3 will happen... but only if the writing improves.

? I just found out about this show. It’s stirring in its [censored]ogy of the cruel and fear driven nature of racism. It is so timely and truly hope they’ll renew this show for a third season. I’ve never seen a promotion for this show nor for most of the really great tv series. I watched 2 Seasons in 1 week.

I've only managed to catch season 2, but what i saw definitely left me entrenched. The fleshing out of characters and sibling rivalry coupled with cutting edge issues such as racial tension and evolutionary fear and debate make for quite an enthralling storyline. I find it sad that they have lost their following to a degree and would be heartbroken not to have this series seen through to the climatic end

I wasn't too sure of the show during episode 1 and almost didn't watch any further. I'm so glad I did...I'm totally hooked on this show. The characters and the story are all very well written and believable. It's as good as Lost or Battle Star Galactica was. I do wish that they made more than 6 episodes in a season, but then maybe it wouldn't have been as good. The 6 episodes definitely leave you wanting more.

What an awesome show. I started this a couple of days ago on Netflix without knowing a thing about it except that a Cleverman is sort of similar to the Native American shamans.
I really wish the six episode format was a twelve episode format. This show is intense, and well written. I have to give the makeup people a thumbs down on the "Hairies," though. They could have done a lot better with that concept.
