The Commons: Sundance Now Acquires Australian Drama for US & Canada


AMC Networks announced today that its Sundance Now streaming service has picked up the exclusive US and Canadian rights to the Aussie drama The Commons.

November brings just one new Australian program, a comedy, to viewers in the US, along with two Aussie mystery dramas being added to a streaming service.

Fans of My Life Is Murder, rejoice! The Lucy Lawless mystery series has been greenlit for a new season, which Acorn TV will co-produce. (Yay!)

The second season of Aussie detective drama Mystery Road premiered in the US this past Monday, and it’s been worth the two-plus-year wait.

For all intents and purposes, Acorn TV owns Down Under TV premieres and additions in the US in October, which could be called “Mark Mitchinson Month” on the streaming service.

At the heart of One Lane Bridge, which premiered today in the US and Canada, are a mysterious death and one man’s reawakened gift of second sight.

The terrific new Kiwi drama series Head High, which finished its run in New Zealand a month ago, arrived in the US last week (and elsewhere, too).

The new Kiwi-Canadian thriller The Sounds, which features stunning scenery and a layered storyline, premiered today in the US, Canada, and UK.

Down Under TV fans in the US get a double dose of brand new Kiwi TV in September, plus the new season of an Aussie TV favorite.

The wait is nearly over. Season 8 of the multiple award-winning Wentworth arrives in the US on Netflix next month.

Five Bedrooms, the new Aussie dramedy that premiered in the US yesterday, is fun and fabulous and perfect for binge-watching this weekend.

AMC Networks announced today that Sundance Now and Acorn TV have picked up the exclusive rights to New Zealand crime drama series One Lane Bridge.
