The Wests are a one-family crime wave with a proud tradition in thievery, larceny and petty crime. Or at least they used to be. At the beginning of series one, family matriarch Cheryl West decided enough was enough - the family must clean up their and go straight.
But it hasn't been easy for Cheryl, keeping the family together when outside forces threaten to tear them apart.

The second best new zealand show of all time (pulp sport being the best).
Every character and story is so well contructed. Its great to see we can make
shows other/better than shortland street, and that we actually have decent
actors here among us kiwi's.
I never watched this show when it was on TV but when I heard the complete
series was hitting DVD, I had to grab it just based on the good things I've
heard about it.
One good thing about missing it on TV is that I now get to watch the entire
show without waiting a week for the next episode (or a year for the next
season)!
I absolutely loved it. The cast were awesome (especially Antony Starr) and the writers made some excellent storylines with great drama and hilarious comedy.
I do have a few nitpicks with the DVD set itself though. It could've done
with some original (spoiler-free) boxart and it would have been VERY cool to
have a booklet full of goodies.
For some stupid reason they put the bonus disc in the first case (after the
season three discs), so naturally I assumed it only had extras and interviews
for the first three seasons. I had to hit the ‘eject’ button when
I realised they were talking about something from season six!
I've heard that this box set is actually ‘missing’ extras that are on the
individual season releases but as I don't have those I can't confirm that.
It was also annoying that NONE of the discs had captions for the hearing
impaired.
Every city in every country has a ‘West’.
Outrageous Fortune encompasses everything we love to hate about Westies.
Laugh till you cry and cringe with the antics of the West Family. The one family
crime spree with morals so high you wouldn't stub your toe on them!
Oh, there are those who claim not to have watched, but mention what Van and
Munter are up to, or which particular vendetta Ted has to right this time and
see them smile! Watch the whole series from the start and see what made this the
greatest New Zealand TV series ever.
Cannot wait for this Set to be delivered to my door (:
Gonna have some epic marathons,
But this really is a piece of NZ history
My partner and I love outrageous we watched the whole box set and can't wait for the next session to get our Van hit!! So addcitive
