The beloved Australian comedy series 'Colin From Accounts' is coming to a close with its third season, as confirmed by stars Harriet Dyer and Patrick Brammall. This news comes as a surprise to fans, who have grown fond of the show's quirky characters and relatable storylines. The announcement was made alongside production house Easy Tiger and streamer Binge, with a July 27 launch date set for Australia.
Dyer and Brammall, who play a mismatched Sydney couple, expressed their love for the show and the process of making it. They co-created the series and are its writers and on-screen stars, contributing to its success as Binge's most popular original series. The show's cultural impact is evident, with a similar level of discourse in the UK and the U.S., where it is available on Paramount+ and the BBC, respectively.
Season 3 will explore the aftermath of Gordon's (Brammall) ill-fated proposal, as he and Ashley (Dyer) navigate their relationship and the role of their adopted dog, Colin. The addition of new cast members, including Thomas Cocquerel, Nikki Shiels, and Mark Trevorrow, promises to bring fresh dynamics to the show.
The show's production team, including Easy Tiger Productions and CBS Studios, has been instrumental in its success. Executive producers Rob Gibson, Ian Collie, and Brammall, Dyer, Trent O'Donnell, Lana Greenhalgh, and Daniel Monaghan, have worked tirelessly to bring the show to life. The final season will feature four episodes directed by Trent O'Donnell and four directed by Madeleine Dyer, ensuring a high level of quality and creativity.
While the show's end may be bittersweet for fans, Dyer and Brammall's statement reflects their dedication to the project: 'We love everything about making this show... We’re going to miss making this show terribly, but we hope you love season three as much as we do.' The series has won several awards and has had a significant cultural impact, leaving a lasting impression on audiences worldwide.
