Paramount+ announced today the US premiere date for Colin from Accounts, the hit Aussie comedy series created by and starring Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer.
Debuting in Australia last year to critical and viewer acclaim, Colin from Accounts 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.
The series recently won three Logie Awards in the top comedy categories: Most Outstanding Comedy Program (the first streaming series to win this honor), Most Outstanding Actress (Harriet Dyer), and Most Outstanding Actor (Patrick Brammall).
The eight-episode first season centers on Ashley (Harriet Dyer, American Auto, The Other Guy, No Activity) and Gordon (Patrick Brammall, Evil, No Activity, Glitch), two complex, single-ish individuals who are brought together by a nipple flash, a car accident, and an injured dog — in that order.
Colin from Accounts premieres in the US with two episodes on Thursday, November 9, exclusively on Paramount+. New episodes will drop in pairs on Thursdays through November 30.
The cast includes Emma Harvie (RFDS) as Megan, Helen Thomson (Irreverent) as Lynelle, Genevieve Hegney (The Heart Guy) as Chiara, Michael Logo (Love Me) as Brett, and Tai Hara (Home and Away) as James.
Said Jeff Grossman, Executive Vice President, Content & Business Operations, Paramount Streaming:
“COLIN FROM ACCOUNTS has already stolen the hearts of international audiences with its irresistible blend of lovable characters, endearing storylines and the perfect balance of modern-day romance and comedy. We are beyond thrilled to call Paramount+ the streaming home of the series here in the U.S. as it joins our growing slate of originals.”
Commissioned by the Foxtel Group and produced by Easy Tiger Productions and CBS Studios, the series’ first season is executive produced by Patrick Brammall, Harriet Dyer, Alison Hurbert-Burns, Brian Walsh, Trent O’Donnell, Rob Gibson, and Ian Collie. It received major production funding from Screen Australia with support from Screen NSW, and is distributed outside of Australia and New Zealand by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
