The Australian adult comedy Colin From Accounts makes its US debut on Paramount+ on Thursday, November 9, 2023 with the release of the first two episodes. The half-hour comedy stars real-life spouses Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer as strangers whose lives are dramatically changed after a scruffy border terrier comes into their lives and screws up their plans.
Harriet Dyer stars as Ashley, a student doctor, and Patrick Brammall plays Gordon, the owner of a craft beer brewery. Emma Harvie plays Megan, Helen Thomson is Lynelle, Genevieve Hegney is Chiara, Michael Logo is Brett, and Tai Hara is James.
Dyer and Brammall created the series and serve as executive producers along with Alison Hurbert-Burns, Brian Walsh, Trent O’Donnell, Rob Gibson, and Ian Collie. The series is produced by Easy Tiger Productions and CBS Studios.
“Colin From Accounts is centered on Ashley and Gordon, two single(ish), complex humans who are brought together by a nipple flash, a car accident and an injured dog,” reads the Paramount+ synopsis. “The series is about flawed, funny people choosing each other and being brave enough to show their true selves, scars and all, as they navigate life together.”
Season one premiered in Australia in December 2022 and earned three TV Week Logie Awards for Most Outstanding Comedy Program (the first streaming series to win this honor), Most Outstanding Actress (Harriet Dyer), and Most Outstanding Actor (Patrick Brammall). The series sits at 100% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with James Walton of The Spectator saying it “pulls off the neat trick of combining its undeniable charm with plenty of irreverence and a fair degree of filth. There are lots of great jokes too.”
Two new season one episodes debut weekly on Thursdays on Paramount+.
