The 13 x 24-minute drama series involves an Australian teenage girl, Saskia, and her internet-based relationship with Noah, a teenage boy living in the United Kingdom. The two characters project their ideal selves to each other in a virtual world, and in the process get a little closer to reaching their ideals in the real one. The show is about the power of someone's essence and how someone can touch you from 10,000 miles away, and change your whole life. Noah & Saskia speaks directly to today's young people about the technologies which are changing the way we communicate. "I wanted one more crack at producing the type of television I had always believed in; not a formulaic soap-style series; not a co-produced mid-Pacific blancmange, but something that really spoke to adolescents about the issues that were on their minds," Patricia Edgar, Bloodbath: a memoir of Australian Television, pg.399 ."The Internet was the place to set much of the action as this allowed for a modern, contemporary story, which would be new territory for drama. The other appeal of online chat spaces was that they give the characters opportunities to express themselves in multiple ways. The Net is a space where young people are much more at home than their parents and increasingly it will be their world", Patricia Edgar. Noah and Saskia commenced production in May 2003. It premiered and screened in Australia on the ABC and in the United Kingdom on the BBC in 2004. (en)
- Noah & Saskia (Um Par Quase Perfeito no Brasil) é uma série de 13 episódios sobre um relacionamento virtual entre dois adolescentes e seus efeitos sobre suas vidas. Embora os adolescentes enganem um ao outro com "personagens falsos", sua relação é mostrada de forma positivo e muito importante para ambos. Eles se tornam grandes amigos, mas sem revelar suas verdadeiras identidades ao longo de série (mistério que só é revelado no último episódio). Tudo começa quando Saskia (Hannah Greenwood), uma dolescente aspirante a guitarrista, descobre que uma de suas músicas foi "roubada" e está sendo usado no site de quadrinhos de um garoto chamado Noah (Raman Goial), mas no mundo virtual ele é conhecido apenas pelo seu personagem Max (na verdade é mais um alter ego do que um simples personagem). Como Saskia é esperta, também cria uma personagem para ter acesso a mesma rede social que Max, e assim, cria a personagem Indy. Mas as coisas tomaram rumos totalmente diferentes do esperado quando "Indy" e "Max" tornam-se amigos e decidem trabalhar juntos no site de Noah: ele criando as histórias em quadrinhos e ela criando as trilhas sonoras.E com isso a amizade dos dois vai se tornando cada vez mais forte, fazendo surgir até o que seria o início de uma paixão secreta. Isso não seria problema se não fosse um porém logo descoberto por ambos: Saskia mora na Austrália e Noah mora na Inglaterra. O que tinha tudo para ser um possível casal perfeito desmoronou-se antes mesmo de começar; o que não impede nossos e incertezas. Saskia e Noah acham que seus alter egos, Indy e Max, permitem-lhe expressar aspectos de suas personalidades que eles se sentem desconfortáveis ou incapaz de expressar normalmente na vida real. Indy é confiante e sexy, já Saskia é nervosa e tímida. Max é descolado e com atitude, enquanto Noah é reservado e meio sem jeito. (pt)
