Colin from Accounts

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.

Must say that I'm pleasantly surprised by this well written Australian comedy. No it's not at the "all time favourite" level like Friends or Seinfeld, but it is witty, it's sweet, it's laugh out loud and it has heart.

The writing is clever and very "now" (borrowed from episode 3:"it's now"). The acting is great, including most of the support actors. Two lead characters have good chemistry, which is absolutely essential in such series.

If you like romantic comedy, looking for some "comfort tv", something light and fun, I definitely recommend this little hidden gem. I think I was the first viewer who gave it a rating on IMDB. Come on. This series is too good to be this "hidden".

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.

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.

Brilliant and relatable.

Laugh out loud and awkward at times which makes it even funnier.

Colin steals every scene that he's in as well as Brett the Kiwi Barmen. Brett adds a bookend to Gordons manic outbursts.

A refreshing comedy that gives a great insight to modern day dating.

Great mix of characters of situations that don't need to be explained to be funny.

Unlike American comedy's that need laugh tracks to remind the audience when it's time to laugh, this one lets the comedy do all the work.

Subtle use of expletives is also subtle and timed to perfection.

There is a mother / daughter dynamic that everyone can either relate to or know of. Helen Thomson as mum, Lynelle, needs special mention as she also steals all of her scenes.

Now that I think of it, everyone seems to steal their scenes.

Can't wait for for the next episode!
