Short summary

Three ordinary women discover a moon pool on Mako Island that turns them into extraordinary mermaids with special powers over water on the night of a full moon. They must never look in the moon's eye or there will be side effects for each of them.

The actresses put full cream milk in their eyes to help them keep their eyes open underwater.

Claire Holt (Emma Gilbert) left the show at the end of season two to film Messengers 2: The Scarecrow (2009), with the character's departure explained as traveling the world with her family.

The girls' powers are as follows: Cleo can manipulate water, Emma can freeze water, and Rikki can boil water. In season 2, they gained weather control: Cleo can manipulate wind, Emma can draw moisture from the air to freeze, and Rikki can draw forth lightning which catches things on fire. Bella, the mermaid introduced in season 3, can crystallize and gelatinize water.

Angus McLaren does not appear regularly in season three due to filming Packed to the Rafters (2008).

Phoebe Tonkin (Cleo Sertori) and Claire Holt (Emma Gilbert) both went on to appear in The Vampire Diaries (2009) and its spin-off Οι Αρχέγονοι (2013).

The theme song at the beginning of each episode is sang by a different singer each season. Season 1 was Ellie Henderson, season 2 was Kate Alexa, and season 3 was Indiana Evans who also portrayed Isabella Hartley.

Cariba Heine hired a professional trainer to help improve her swimming while auditioning for the role of Rikki Chadwick.

During preproduction, each girl that would be a mermaid during the season would get a molding done of her legs so they could make the mermaid tails for the scenes where they are in mermaid form. Before they were able to swim with the tails on, they had to go through a rigorous training process to get their bodies ready for the extra weight of the tails. They also learned breath holding exercises to help them with holding their breath underwater for long periods of time.

Cariba Heine (Rikki Chadwick) and Jamie Timony (Nate) began a relationship during the filming of the series.

The role of Charlotte Watsford was nearly awarded to actress Gemma Forsyth before Brittany Byrnes was officially cast. Forsyth went on to portray Evie McLaren in the show's spin-off series Οι Γοργόνες του Μάκο (2013).

Only two seasons with a total of 52 episodes were originally planned but, due to popular demand, a third and final season was filmed. Season one premiered in July 2006, followed by season two in September 2007. Season three first aired in the United Kingdom in October 2009, with the Australian premiere occurring in May 2010.

It first screened on Australia's Network Ten and runs in syndication on channels in over 120 countries and has a worldwide audience of more than 250 million. It was filmed on location at Sea World and other locations on the Gold Coast.

Every season starts with a full moon.

The actress who portrays Kim Sertori's real name is Cleo Massey. She shares the same first name as her onscreen older sister.

This is one of the most successful children's Australian television series considering they got three seasons. Most of the others only get one or two.

All of the three lockets that Emma, Rikki, and Cleo get, have gems on them that matchup with their powers. Emma (freezes water) has a white stone. Rikki (boils water) has a red stone, and Cleo (manipulates water) has a blue stone.

Nickelodeon advertised a 15 minute sneak peek two weeks before the show was aired.

Claire Holt (Emma Gilbert) auditioned for a part in The Secret Circle (2011) but didn't get it. Phoebe Tonkin (Cleo Sertori) landed the part of Faye Chamberlain on the show.

Cariba Heine (Rikki Chadwick), Burgess Abernethy (Zane Bennett), and Isabel Durant (Ondina in Οι Γοργόνες του Μάκο (2013)) all appeared on Dance Academy (2010).

Cariba Heine, Phoebe Tonkin, and Damien Garvey (Coach Norris in Οι Γοργόνες του Μάκο (2013)) all appeared in Λευκή απειλή (2012).

Cariba Heine and Indiana Evans also appeared in A Model Daughter: The Killing of Caroline Byrne (2009).

Andrew Lees appears in season 3. He was also on "The Originals" with Claire Holt and Phoebe Tonkin.

While clearing part of a jungle for filming season 3 they found an overturned truck and tried to get it out with a crane.

Luke Mitchell appears in season 3. His wife, Rebecca Breeds, appears on "The Originals" with Claire Holt, Phoebe Tonkin, and Andrew Lees (also season 3).

The mermaids, Emma,Cleo,Rikki, wardrobe frequently followed a color scheme: Emma white/blue, Cleo pink/purple, and Rikki black/red.

Indiana Evans (Isabella Hartley) and Angus McLaren (Lewis McCartney) were dating in real life.

Every season has a different enemy or "bad girl." Season 1 is Miriam Kent, season 2 is Charlotte Watsford, and season 3 is Sophie Benjamin.

Phoebe Tonkin and Cariba Heine, who play Cleo Sertori and Rikki Chadwick respectively, are the only actresses who appear in every episode of the series.

Charlotte Watsford's wardrobe consisted of the color combination of all three mermaids: white, red, and purple. She also has all of their powers; Manipulating Water, Boiling water, and freezing water.

In the final episode of season 3, during graduation a girl is called Lucy Fry. In the spin off series Mako Mermaids: An H2O Adventure, she becomes one of the main mermaids.

    Though I should be embarrassed to say that at 18 I watch a television show marketed for tweens, I'm not. H2O: Just Add Water is quality entertainment.

    The storyline, though not entirely lacking in plot holes, is well thought out and attention catching. I've scoured the internet on more than one occasion in the attempts of finding the next episodes and I'm mildly heartbroken about the current state of Season 3. I cannot help but remain interested in whatever might be happening in "mermaid land" The acting is certainly not that of Kate Winslet or George Clooney but as far as the small screen goes the skills of the young cast are enviable. Phoebe Tonkin (Cleo), Cariba Heine (Rikki), and Claire Holt (Emma) are the three headliners. They portray their roles as not only mermaids but best friends in a believable and touching way--and manage to convey turmoil in their relationships with each other but significant others as well. We often see Angus McLaren (Lewis) and Burgess Abernethy (Zane) throughout the series and they too are welcome characters. Both portray teens with real personality flaws and remain an area of interest.

    Certainly the series isn't without its flaws but it's a cute show that will keep you entertained. I'll definitely continue watching for as long as it runs.

    Hey, i am a 13 year old girl and i absolutely love h2o just add water. Its basically about 3 girls named Cleo,Rikki and Emma. When Cleo gets stuck on a boat, Rikki helps her. Gets the boat going picks up Emma and (with the help of Rikki) Get stuck on a island. While trying to get a phone signal Cleo falls down into a cave and Rikki and Emma go down after her. After they walk for a little bit they find a little pool which if they swim underwater would lead them out to the sea. When they get into water they find that the water starts bubbling and sparkling. They don't think anything of it and swim to safety. The next day the girls realize that they have tuned into mermaids. They decide not to tell anyone because they were scared they would end up in a freak show. Later on they find that they have powers over water. Rikki can boil it, Cleo can morph it and Emma can freeze it. While tyring to keep this secret but not let in ruin the lives Cleo decides to go to a party where Zane (The bad boy) throws her in the water while everybody goes inside Lewis (Cleo friends who she likes and he likes her two)is shocked to see her turn into a mermaid he helps and finds out that Emma and Rikki are mermaids to. I have only seen 6 episodes. Because i missed it on channel ten so i am now watching it on the Disney channel. So if you are looking a the show and thinking is this a good show. i would say to you no... Its a GREAT show. And i would definitely recommend you watch it.

    This is not just a kids show. One of the biggest reasons I love this show so much is because it involves relationships, friendships, heartache in great depth yet includes no foul language or anything of that sort. The show is well developed from season to season as well as the characters. Some of the quotes are pure genius (if you watch it you will see what I mean) there are some hilarious one-liners and scenes in the show as well as some serious moments, gripping moments, and moments that have made me laugh out loud and cry. The cast is amazing and perfect for their parts - which is pretty rare. The casts acting improves as the seasons go on and the episodes always have me at the edge of my seat. Brilliant, stunning, 10/10.

    This show has some of the best developed character personalities I have ever seen.If you like shows aimed at pre teens to teens then you will most likely love this show.

    The start of the show is kind of confusing but if you keep watching it gets better and better! The plot of the show revolves around three teenage girls that get turned into mermaids.Also how they deal with everyday situations with there new found 'abilities'.

    I recommend this show to anyone that likes relationships,mermaids,and just watching one of the best shows ever!.It really is that good, and you will not regret watching it.

    This is the BEST new show I've seen in many years, and I've been watching television since 1966. The effects are superb, the actors are both very attractive and very talented. And the Australian accents make it all the more adorable. "MERMAID" just sounds SO much better when it rolls off the tongue of a beautiful Australian actress. You have to watch this show from the start, and give it until season 2 to really hit its stride. It gets very humorous in season 2 - truly a joy to watch. Great for all ages - trust me on this one - i know my mermaids! If this show had an advertising budget behind it it would have been a super smash. Oh and yes I agree - the music is also excellent especially the theme song NO ORDINARY GIRL. I just LOVE this show! If you only watch ONE EPISODE - be sure its SEASON 2 episode 15 IRRESISTIBLE. This is by far the funniest of all the episodes, some of the humor will be lost on you if you haven't seen the prior shows, but it can stand on its own just fine. I'm off to roll around in some ambergris and shamelessly throw myself at the cast...

    Quick and easy: 3 Aussie girls Cleo, Emma & Ricki,(all with opposing personalities, for some added tension whenever it suits) get stuck on a boat, land on an island and their only way back is through magic water. From then on whenever water touches their skin, they immediately turn into mermaids, just like the series title connotes. Life is then a very strange journey for the girls and their time to accept their new powers concerning water. There's the nerdy side kick 'Lewis', a young scientist and trusty friend and Miriam the class bitch who's nasty comments just show her immature personality. Tweens will love the show, but anyone over 13 will recognize the Friday afternoon time slot and the "kid type" plots that come along with it. However it is good to see some Australian shows on our screens.

    *********May contain spoiler*************

    I am 15 and I have to say I love this show! It is about 3 teenage girls: Rikki, Cleo and Emma who, when accidentally stumbling across the mysterious Maego Island, find they now develop tails every time they come in contact with water! Not only that but they have special powers to do with the water: Rikki can boil water, Cleo can manipulate water and Emma can freeze it. When their slightly geeky friend, Lewis, discovers their powers at a pool party he helps the girls hide their secret from their family, friends and enemies in the form of stuck up rich girl Miriam and bad boy Zane whilst also helping to work out how and why they got their powers. Some of the acting could use some brushing up (Cleo's little sister Kim has an annoying way of delivering her lines) but the three main girls are brilliant, especially Rikki (Cariba Heine) who comes out with the best lines in the series and is the best new talent in Australia. The directing is really good and the underwater scenes are so cool especially the tails! All those who say that this show is just for the younger generation are wrong: the show tackles the teenage problems of boys, parties and fitting in. Those who say it's childish are just hiding the fact that they love it! If you are a fan of The Little Mermaid or maybe the lesser brilliant version of it, Aquamarine, then watch this series!

    I was just channel surfing and my digital box summary for the show read (almost exactly)"The story of three Australian teens that are able to transform into crime-fighting mermaids".- Crime-fighting mermaids? It sounded like a lame, animated, 7-year-old, kiddie, "Totally-Spies" copy television show. So I waited for the commercial break to be over while I was reading the show info. When the show came back, I started watching it. It was the pilot episode (I guess it was the premiere of the show on the channel). It was actually REALLY good. As soon as the episode was over, immediately went on youtube to see if anyone had posted some episodes.-I was NOT gonna wait once a week to watch the show.

    I started to watch more on youtube and it was entertaining along with interesting plot lines in each episode.

    This show may sound like a girly-bad acting show, but it isn't. The other great thing about the show is that the girls have almost no acting experience on television, yet their acting is believable not overdone at all.

    All the special effects look totally realistic, unlike other shows for teens.

    Even though I've only seen at least a total of 9 episodes (from both seasons), I strongly recommend this show! I'm not exactly a fan of adventure and fantasy, but I can't stop watching "H2O: Just Add Water"!

    GO RIKKI, EMMA, AND CLEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 9/10

    One of my friends recommended this show to me, and once I saw the first episode, I didn't really know what to think.

    The story starts off with Cleo being the main focus, and jumping right into her life, with her friends, enemies and family.

    Who are the people she is talking to? The story starts off slow, and if you are only planning on seeing the first episode, steer away right now. The characters' backgrounds and personalities are built up over the first few episodes, along with how they can cope with what is happening to them, but you have to stick with it or it won't make any sense.

    Cleo is talking to this girl who is swimming, Emma. Emma is an important character int he story, as without her I am sure Cleo and Rikki would have been goners from the start.

    So, we meet Rikki, who stole something off someone's boat (Note to self : watch my wallet around her), and valiantly jumps into the boat she stole the item from, which Cleo is now in. Now, my first impression of Rikki: Loud mouthed and cheeky. It turns out I wasn't that far off, but, in the end, it makes the show all the better. The 3 girls' personalities even out over the episodes.

    And well, we have the main characters: Emma, the cautious one, Rikki, the one in-your-face one, and Cleo, the . . . I am not really sure how to describe her. Off the top of my head I would say 'annoying', but I think there are depths to her personality that I keep overlooking.

    Then there is Lewis. Having known Cleo for who knows how long, he is seen often, as more of a comic relief character who thinks he is a scientist, and is usually, if not asking the girls for hair samples, trying to figure out what is up with them.

    All in all, I would say this is a great, fun show. The plot is, in fact, thicker than I would have thought possible from watching the first episode (So stick to it!). It has a great assortment of characters (though, I do think a few skip between in and out of character), and plot twists when you least expect it (or think nothing else can go wrong for the three). So, I give this show 8/10 rating, for a great plot, good humor, and episodes that you want to see at least twice.

    OK so i saw the add 4 this show on nick the other day and thought it would be another "sleepover club" type show (well it is) but found it was much better than i tought the sleepover club just got annoying

    3 girls Rikki Cleo and Emma stumble upon an ancient cavern they undergo a transformation when they touch water they become mermaids they also have power like Rikki can boil water Cleo can morph and Emma can freeze water

    they have to hide their powers and trying do normal stuff which in fairness would be kinda hard if every time u touch water u turn into a mermaid!!! there friend lewis found out and is helping them.

    i think the show is good if ur a girl and under 13 u defiantly love it it's got that cute childish charm to it but still if ur over 13 u might like it too it's got that teen drama thing too which is always amusing i think it's funny and i'm a good bit over 13 still it might get boring i've only watched 4 episodes

    this show is great great effects for a low budget show. stunning underwater photography and amazingly realistic tails make this one of the greatest mermaid media ever created. the show however is not so popular in the us but its incredible popular though out the world showing in over 140 countries/territories and over 200 million viewers of the show a week making huge. with the demand for a new season, a new season will start this October. the beginning is a little bad by not so good acting but good enough and then over a short time they get they're acting great. the show has a lot of twists in the tail(laugh out loud) making it one of my favorite shows ever. i highly recommend this show to anyone who likes magic mermaids for all ages

    As a response to the previous comment...

    The show is shown in America,as of recently, and it is shown on Teen Nick on weekends.

    Right now I am watching an episode about Emma having a sleepover, and it is good. I am 14, and I saw it for the first time yesterday. The girls I babysit, 11 and 7, enjoy it immensely, I think mainly for the mermaids. So far I guess it is okay. It just seems like another teen sitcom. A guy gets in the way of all of the girls and they get mad. I think it is interesting how it takes 10 seconds after they get wet. Cleo just got wet and turned into a mermaid in front of the party. That was an interesting plot turn. Oh well. Watch the show and find out if you like it!

    i absolutely love this show and i am over 13 i admit it!! but i also admit i am a mermaid lover so it goes together i believe. i saw all the episodes and i cant wait for season 2 to begin. the 2 last episodes were so good,i must say if season 2 is as good as the 2 last,it will be hot.so as i say i am a mermaid lover and the underwater scene are so beautiful. the tails are amazing, i think they look like the tail in the up coming movie fishtale. i must say this show made me think of the TV movie mermaids. for those who don't know what it is, its the story of 3 sisters who are mermaids and comes to live on land and they each have a power, like h20; but its was an adult movie. h20 is more for teens and ...well, like i said for mermaid lover!!!

    H20 is a programme about three girls, Rikki, Emma and Cleo, who discover that when they go into water or get water on them , they turn into mermaids.

    Even though today's episode was only the fourth episode they have shown in England, I still love this programme.

    Oh, and in America, do they show this on Disney Channel? Because over here in London they show this on Nickelodeon

    Please could somebody answer my question because I am desperate to know Thank You

    P.S. I can't believe the actress that plays Rikki is from South Africa

    The first series revolves around Emma Gilbert, Cleo Sertori and Rikki Chadwick, who are given the power to turn into mermaids when water touches there skin. They discover their amazing powers over water - Cleo can control the shape and volume of water, Emma can freeze it, and Rikki can boil it. Lewis McCartney, a friend of Cleo - helps them from being exposed. These series is mostly about Rikki, Emma and Cleo learning to use their powers and dealing with everyday problems, such as pesky siblings. Cleo meets an old lady, Louise Chatham, who was a mermaid in her past and who warns her, Emma and Rikki from the full moon. They have to be careful because people are trying to expose them like Zane Bennett(the Bad boy)when he was trapped on a sinking boat and Emma has to save him. Zane sees a half of her tail and looks everywhere near Mako Island for the "sea monster". later he and rikki date. I would recommend this show to anyone.

    Embarrassed to say that I'm 17 years old and still love this series! I've probably watched it 4 times now! It's just so good and there's something new and great in each episode!! Also if you have watched it then you'll know Zane and Ricki are just the cutest couple but I would say it gets bad in season 3 because Emma leaves so my 10 star rating is for seasons 1 and 2 and I'd give 7-8 for season 3 :)

    I saw this series in the last year and I absolutely loved it. As a whole, it was well done and it did its job in entertaining me. However, there were five things that irked me throughout the series: 1. Kim. Okay, yes, she's supposed to be the annoying younger sibling character, but she NEVER got disciplined for mouthing off to her parents. If I had said or done half of the things this girl did while I was growing up, I would've been either spanked or grounded. 2. Will in season 3. For the most part, I have no problem with him. He reminded me a bit of Byron from S1: a genuinely nice guy. However, what I had an issue with was the girls looking to Will and suddenly treating him like the expert in all things mermaid after finding out Bella (the mermaid who replaced Emma in S3) was a mermaid when Zane had known about them for two years. 3. Cleo: Her whole personality changes in S3 and she becomes a cross between Lewis and Emma, which made no sense. I could see her becoming more confident after the fiasco with Charlotte but to suddenly change her personality so much? 4. Bella's appearance:. Bella herself is an interesting character, but Cleo and Rikki were awful quick to welcome her into their group after everything with Charlotte. Why weren't they more suspicious? 5. The water tentacle/comet angle: honestly I wasn't a fan of this angle as it made it feel like a whole different show. However, these flaws don't take away from my enjoyment. The series is wonderful and I enjoyed every character even the villains.

    I used to watch this while it was still being aired on TV and then when I realized it was Netflix, I was super excited!! I literally have re-watched this series like once every summer for 4 years! If you love mermaids, and don't mind high school drama, YOU WILL LOVE THIS SHOW. I will say that I do love the original 3 girls and not the new ones that replace the old.

    In an effort to steal 'Charmed's thunder, Australia went ahead and created something rather diabolically stupid, that it seems almost pointless and a waste of time. H2O Just add water is a television series about three teenage friends who become mermaids, and gradually avoid danger at every turn. Although the three friends must also avoid the greatest danger of all: Themselves. Risking exposure is not a priority that sadly seems very high for them, amongst trying to control their powers. Their powers include the different stages of the H2O cycle, like steam, Ice, and liquidized water. The threats also come from below; other mermaids who want to steal their powers, and their boyfriends... From boat chases to drama both on land and off, H2O just add water promises adventure and spectacle at every turn!

    Unfortunately the promise of Mermaids, dazzling special effects, and action, seems to be the only thing on their minds. The script is a childish, contemptible, and the most obtuse, brainless script to have ever been said aloud in quite some time. The dullness of the script is not the only thing that's senselessly nonsensical, but the story-line of each episode is incredibly numb as well as it's cheesy. The dense dialog is so imprudent that the actors performing the inane screen-play look just as stupid. The acting is quite possible the most ludicrous thing about the television series. Here, our protagonists are on the verge of adulthood. Yet, everything that they do – and say – is beyond asinine. We have tweens acting like kids, teens acting like tweens and adults acting like teens. The irrationality of both the script and three girls acting like typical American aussy-speaking teenage girls, along with all of the male figures – all of them – acting like tools and nerds, is utterly absurd and pitiful.

    Phoebe Tonkin (Cleo) is probably the poorest actress of the three girls, Cleo, Rikki and Emma. Whilst looking like she's just popped out of a 90's Wes Craven movie, with foul haircuts and the most plain outfits a star could wear, her acting is the most conventional and boring on the show. She's a cynically stupid, easily predictable character who just shut her damned mouth up. Cariba (Rikki) Is perhaps the least appalling actress here, keeping her character a serious and fit one, despite the inferior script. But like everybody else on this show, she does have her stupid moments – yeah, not stupid in the show. Emma (Claire Holt) is just as bad. So, good then. But eager to squeeze his way next to Phoebe as the worst actor on the show (Phoebe later redeemed herself in 'Tomorrow: When the War began) is probably Angus McLaren. He's just annoying, with his incensing presence proving worthless. But that doesn't stop him; Stupid haircuts (they get around, don't they?) feeble acting, floppy dialog, all make him just as weedy as the rest of the cast. An irritating factor is, he seems far too pre-occupied with thinking that he's all sophisticated because he plays a young scientist with the sea-maids, that he doesn't seem to focus on the real issue at hand; the vulnerability of the three mermaids that are apparently his best friends. The exposure of the mermaidians is evidently not a priority; so why even bother with the show? Burgess Abernethy is another male actor throwing away his career. At first he's an untrustworthy 'friend', who as nearly a grown man, is obsessed with mermaids. Again, another pessimistic and juvenile addition. He then proves himself worthy of friendship, and then they all go out for an under-water orgy. This is probably all you need to know. A weakening factor is, he's still a baddie.

    Oh no! Now there are bad actors, badly acting, as people acting… Bad! Villains and threats are a common factor for our mermaids. Although the villains are nowhere near as menacing as they should be. We might as well kick the show whilst it's down. The theme song 'No Ordinary Girl' written by Shelley Rosenberg is as fatuous as the song, 'I'm a Barbie Girl'. Nail gargling, soul-crushing, head-aching, H2O Just Add Water is promptly the worst television show that has played on afternoon television since 'Power Rangers: Samurai'. Beyond poor.

    I have no idea what the chick from the USA was on about just because it's not American humour dosen't mean its not a great show, newsflash the rest of the world dosen't have to like everything you like.

    The show has a fan base with yes unbelievable story lines and love interests, Love how all the girls are settling into their characters and each seem to be finding their own ways.

    If you like the movie aquamarine and like shows that don't take themselves too serious than this show is for you.

    Look out for Indianna Evans from Home and Away when she joins the cast for season 3.

    My advice watch a few eps and if you don't like it don't like it don't watch anymore.

    OK i know i am an old lady and am forced to watch these things with granddaughter. I watched Mako first and we both enjoyed it i quite liked it did a review. Then we decided to watch H20 just add water.

    I found it quite tedious and lacked any substance, i mean they transform into mermaids and must avoid the moon, but every time it comes up they always allow someone to open their door so the moon light comes in, and one will be affected and off they go in a trance...yawn.

    Then the not getting wet or turn into a fish, yes always they get wet and one turns into a fish. I mean Cleo gets a job with dolphins really.

    Then they freeze someone in the cafes freezer i mean she was solid, and stuck in there all night, and they defrost her with their special powers and she wakes up as though nothing happened, REALLY....i just sighed and thought how stupid is this.

    Then boo hiss we have way too many nasty females, Kim Cleos sister who is a brat all through the series, Sophie Wills sister horrible person really, then Charlotte who turns into a nasty horrible mermaid and does really bad things to the girls, but all is forgiven yawn. Even Sophie who causes the island magic pool to collapse seems to be forgiven yawn again.

    So many silly things, I mean i know its for young people it had its moments but it was just well the same thing over and over again.

    The best person was Lewis who left, I couldn't get on with Rikki and Emma left and we had Bella who was yes a mermaid but from Ireland.

    All the things that happened and no one even made a comment or wondered why. How can you keep that kind of thing a secret, i mean water is everywhere in our lives. Oh and what a hoot tentacles really they looked like snakes or eels to me. Oh and no way would a comet be allowed to get so close it would breach our atmosphere. Far fetched or what lol.

    Oh and really snorkelling under the sea give me a break how bad is that.

    No i preferred Mako it had more substance and story line. I can see the charm of it for young people but even my grand daughter found it hard work.

    I used to watch this show as a kid and I loved it. The effects were good and are still decent today, the tails were beautifully designed if you watch the behind the scenes videos. However, the characters didn't seem all that realistic, the acting was decent but I'll give it credit for covering important subjects like animal abuse with illegal fishing of sea turtles etc. This show does have some substance and morals that are interesting but besides that it's dull. The underwater scenes are beautiful to look at, although there are some aspects that I just can't overlook. First of all the title is incredibly stupid. H20 just add water doesn't make any sense, if you replace H20 with water, the title literally means water just add water! H20 is just the chemical name for water which is made up of two hydrogens and 1 oxygen= water. There are a few plot holes and stupid moments that make no semblance of sense. ( spoiler alert) How Lewis first tests the water inside of the girl's DNA. It is not scientifically possible for a person to have a mermaid's tail just by swimming in a "moon pool" there has to be an already existing genetic material from some line of lineage. So, he should've tested the girl's DNA first and then the water to see what activated the genetics. They do explain some of this when Charlotte shows up in season 2-3 but besides that it should've been obvious. It is an enjoyable show for kids but lacks in certain parts.

    The Best Show Ever H2o Just Add water is the best Australian TV Show I've ever seen.The acting,the plot,the place and storyline are incredible.The Girls have some amazing magic powers,which an ordinary Girl can only dream of.To me,Emma has the most amazing power and I think that she shouldn't be replaced by Indiana Evans.That would be very sad to all Emma real fans.And the girls have got a lots of enemies:Charlotte,the evil mermaid,Zane,the rich boy,Denman,the marine biologist and Miriam,the stacked up rich girl,which they can fight with their powers.I think that H2o Just Add Water is the best show I've seen and it is suitable to children to all ages.Also,my opinion is that there should be more shows like that,that do not involve sex,nudity,stupid scenes,violence and etc.I just can't wait for season 3!The only bad thing about the upcoming season is the fact that Emma won't be there and she'll be replaced by the stupid Bella.Also,That show has some outstanding music.I love all Kate Alexa's No Ordinary Girl,which is played at the beginning of the episodes and Feel it Too,which is played at the episode when Kim and Eliott go on a date,it's good music.

    They do not think what it is, and swim to safety. The next day, the girls realize that they have adjusted to the mermaid. They decided not to tell anyone, because they are afraid they will end in a freak show. Later, they found that they had the power of water. Ricky boil, Creole can be turned and Emma back-acting is certainly not Kate Winslet or George Clooney, but the small screen as much as possible to the young actor to skills enviable.The guidance really good, can freeze the underwater scene is so cool, especially the tail! All of these people say, this program tackles teenage boy, the younger generation of error: Displays the parties to the problem and renovated in. http://www.diablo3gold-sale.com/
