Reception
Do or Die's first episode was beaten in the ratings by A Perfect Murder and then the second episode was beaten by coverage of the Wimbledon men's final.[5]
Writing in the Age Debi Enker says "It's easy to focus on the men in Do or Die, for even though it starts out as a mother-and-son story, the drama rapidly develops into a battle of wits involving three cunning and determined men who go to war, with a woman and a sick child between them. The sting in the tale is that, as the representative of law and order, Quint is so dislikeable that you find yourself barracking for the alleged bad guy."[6] Kerrie Murphy of The Australian wrote "apart from the occasional lull in plot, Do or Die is well written. There are some genuine moments of intrigue and, for the most part, you don't see the answer coming, or if you do it's not until the last minute."[4] The Chronicle Herald's Pat Lee wrote that it "is not much above a soap opera, but it's a fun one with all the elements in place."[7]
