Colin from Accounts

Perfect casting makes this comedy series a delight, with hilarious awkward situations and the best use of Australian humor. You will cringe and squirm as you relive all the silly moments and painful relationship hardships for our modern times. Most of all, you will find yourself laughing out loud!

Creators, Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer, have poured out their hearts and laid all to bear in their true 12-year-age-gap relationship for our pure enjoyment. Bonus being that they also played the leading roles of Gordon and Ashley, allowing more depth to the characters.

Harriet Dyer proves to be an unique comedic actor, with impeccable timing and mannerisms. While Brammall has the somewhat straight role, holding up a mirror to our stressful and unfulfilling lives. It is here that the uncomfortable laughs and nervous giggles creep into the comedy, balancing perfectly with that of the bumbling Ashley and her hectic messy life.

One of the few Australian comedy series' that understands the visual language of comedic storytelling, combining that with the hilarious use of everyday rambling dialogue and banter.

I thought it would be a Office spinoff. Pleasantly surprised to find it's a romantic comedy. Real life comedy, not the canned laughter type. All the characters are brilliant, from Berlin to the bar staff, Ashley's friends to her mum. The main characters develop well. They are very believable, and act superbly.

The writing is top notch, up there with Rake and other great Australian programmes. And that's coming from a kiwi.

I think people will see a little of themselves in the characters.

Please tell me there will be a second series, we binged watched this and need to see what happens to Ashley and Flash.

What started off as a fun, pleasant watch quickly became a highlight in a year of fantastic tv.

Dyer and Brammall have wonderful chemistry (which may or may not be obvious), perfect timing but also both deliver on the emotional heart of the show which elevates it to something great. The rest of the cast are all hilarious, delightful in their quirks and help balance things from ever getting too heavy. Notably, the relationship between mother and daughter is superbly cynical.

The writing is sharp and plays between clever, crude and painfully awkward humour. It never misses and is regularly laugh out loud funny. The story is refreshing and relatable.

Here's hoping this isn't the last of Colin.

Just watch it. The name of it is deceiving really. I thought it was like an office kind of thing. It's not. It's laugh out loud funny. It's brilliantly written. Loved every single second if it.

Watched it on my own then watched it all again in one go with 4 friends.

Whoever directed it was genius. So many small funny things especially noticeable in watch 2.

Brilliant. Sharing this with the world.

The characters are excellent. The small funny things made us belly laugh.

The mom... well she is just excellent.

This show does not need a season 2. It's perfect.

Thanks for making this. This is the best Australian show I have ever seen.

Nice one.

Colin from Accounts is a charming Aussie comedy created and featuring real-life couple Harriet Dyer and Patrick Brammel as Ashley and Gordon.

Brought together by an injured dog, Ash and Gordon navigate the messiness of work, friendship and dating despite different lives and an age gap.

Dyer and Brammel have created characters with nuanced personalities. The awkwardness and attraction the characters experience is palpable and relateable, and the humour woven throughout.

The characters and suburban setting feels universal while recognisably Australian.

Eight episodes feels way too short and leaves the viewer expecting more and a little disappointed with the end point. Season two seems inevitable - we all need to see Berlin cry.
