Binge Has Renewed Charming Aussie Rom-Com Sitcom 'Colin From Accounts' for a Second Season

It started with everyday awkwardness. It plunged straight into a memorable meet-cute, too. And, it pondered what might happen if a medical student and a microbrewery owner crossed paths in Sydney, ended up with an injured dog between them, then went from strangers to pet co-owners almost instantly. Also, it's the latest collaboration between real-life couple and No Activity stars Harriet Dyer (The Invisible Man) and Patrick Brammall (Evil). From the moment that Colin From Accounts hit screens late in 2022, it clearly wasn't short on highlights.

Among last year's best new TV shows, this Aussie gem stood out for its charm, relatability, smarts and fleshed-out characters — plus its ace two- and four-legged cast. Thankfully, there'll be more where all of the above came from, with Australian streaming service Binge confirming that a second season of Colin From Accounts is officially on the way.

"We're thrilled that Binge is finally giving in and letting us do another one. Turns out the border terrier community is extremely powerful," said Dyer and Brammall in a statement announcing the homegrown hit's impending return.

"Thank you to everybody around the world who has enjoyed the show — we can't wait to bring you all a second season. Stay tuned for more shenanigans."

So far, there's no exact timing set for a second date with Dyer as Ashley and Brammall as Gordon; however, the renewal news comes after Colin From Accounts nabbed itself a trio of 2023 Logies. The series picked up Most Outstanding Comedy Program, Most Outstanding Actor and Most Outstanding Actress — all industry voted, rather than by audiences.

Story-wise, the first season of Colin From Accounts followed Ashley and Gordon after the latter was distracted by the former one otherwise ordinary morning, then accidentally hit a stray dog with his car. The pair took the pooch to receive veterinary treatment, then committed to look after him — and, yes, named him Colin From Accounts — causing their already-chaotic lives to intertwine.

"The funniest couple on TV (and their dog) are coming back. Binge is thrilled to confirm a second season of the award-winning Colin from Accounts," Alison Hurbert-Burns, the streaming service's Executive Director.

"We left season one unsure if Ashley and Gordon could get Colin back, so of course we need to see what's next for these loveable characters that audiences in Australia, and the world, have fallen in love with."
