COLIN FROM ACCOUNTS (Paramount+)

[samhexum]

Offbeat, endearing Aussie rom-com created, written by, and starring Patrick Brammall (Andy from EVIL) and his wife.  They take turns writing the episodes.

I watched the first (8 episode) season in one sitting last night.  One more season to go.

I didn't enjoy season two quite as much as I did season one, but I still liked it enough to hope that they get a season three.

I noticed that some of the episodes were directed by a woman with the same last name as the female star so I assume that's a relative.

Because I felt like it! What is it to you? Why the hell do you give a damn why I did it? Haven't you got anything better to worry about?

Paramount+ has renewed the Australian rom-com Colin From Accounts for a third season, TVLine has learned. Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer will return to write, executive-produce and star in the new season.

Brammall and Dyer star as Gordon and Ashley, who find a romantic spark while they care for an injured dog they name Colin (From Accounts). Emma Harvie co-stars as Ashley’s friend Megan, with Genevieve Hegney and Michael Logo as Gordon’s co-workers Chiara and Brett, and Helen Thomson as Ashley’s ridiculously nosy mother Lynelle. (Read here why we think Colin is worth watching.)

Season 2, which debuted in September, ended on a cliffhanger, with Gordon impulsively proposing to Ashley at Megan’s wedding — and Ashley turning him down flat. 

“We’re VERY excited to bring you Season 3 of our show,” Brammall and Dyer said in a statement. “To be honest, with the way we ended Season 2, it would have been weird not to make a third, so here we are. We promise we won’t leave you hanging like that again. Probably.”

CBS has greenlit the single-camera comedy DMV, which stars Colin From Accounts standout Harriet Dyer. It is a workplace comedy “set at the place everyone dreads going most.” The single-cam hails from executive producer Dana Klein (Friends, Fresh Off the Boat) and boasts an ensemble that includes Dyer, Tim Meadows and Molly Kearney (Saturday Night Live), Alex Tarrant (NCIS: Hawai’i), Tony Cavalero (The Righteous Gemstones) and Gigi Zumbado (The Rookie). (Dyer will also continue to write and star in Colin From Accounts, which was recently renewed for Season 3 at Paramount+.)

"Colin from Accounts" is closing up its books for good: The Australian rom-com will end with its upcoming Season 3 on Paramount+, TVLine has confirmed.

Season 3 still doesn't have a premiere date on Paramount+, but a source tells TVLine it's "coming soon."

All eight episodes drop September 10.

Season 3 "picks up after the Season 2 cliffhanger of Gordon's unexpected proposal to Ashley," per the official synopsis, and "reveals the aftermath of the ill-fated proposal, but while Gordon and Ashley are determined to move on from past embarrassments, they can't seem to shake their collective baggage. And even as life moves on, with challenges at work, ongoing family battles and new friendship dramas, something keeps pulling this flawed, funny pair back into each other's orbits. Do Gordon and Ashley belong together — or is their beloved dog Colin the only thing keeping their futures intertwined?"
