Season three of the beloved Australian romantic comedy Colin From Accounts is finally being released.
While thrilled fans celebrate that the series is returning to TV screens, Foxtel has signalled the upcoming season is the last for Gordon, Ashley and their beloved dog Colin.
“We have a great series of Colin From Accounts coming up at the end of this year that will likely be the last one for now,” Foxtel’s Executive Director of Entertainment Content Dan Monaghan said during a Screen Forever session on the Gold Coast.
Is there a season 3 of Colin from Accounts?
Filming wrapped earlier this year, and the final season is set to air from Monday, July 27.
The shock news of the ending makes sense after star and co-creator Harriet Dyer shared a carousel of videos and images to her Instagram on April 18 that sent fans into a spin.
In one of the videos, she is seen crying while surrounded by co-stars.
“That’s a wrap on Colin From Accounts. The absolute time of my life,” she captioned.
Fans flooded the comments immediately.
“Yay! How long before we can watch in 🇦🇺” asked one.
“Yes absolutely best show. When do we get to watch it?” said another.
Harriet was quick to reassure them: “Not long promise,” she wrote, adding: “SOON. We editing FAST.”
Another fan asked: “So good question this is not the end of the series is it? Because to me it is one of the best well-written shows on right now. It has heart, humor, compassion, and just the right amount of special magic. 🙌❤️
Harriet didn’t reply at the time, but sadly, it is.
Are Ashley and Gordon married in real life?
For those who don’t know, the show is co-created and co-written by real-life husband and wife duo Patrick Brammall and Harriet Dyer.
The couple met in 2015 when they filmed the series No Activity, and then tied the knot in 2021, in Tampa, Florida.
“Everyone was a bit sore that we did it overseas during the pandemic and so it was just to mark it and have some speeches and some dancing,” Harriet told our sister publication WHO magazine in May, 2024.
Patrick added at the time, “It wasn’t officiated by anyone with any authority.”
When she spoke at the 2023 Logies, when the show picked up three awards, she said that it was “incredibly special” to make something with her best friend.
There, Colin from Accounts took home Most Outstanding Comedy Program at the 2023 TV Week Logie Awards, with Patrick and Harriet also taking home Most Outstanding Actor and Actress respectively, leading to the show becoming the most-awarded television series of the evening.
The critically acclaimed comedy has garnered rave reviews from across the globe since its release and even has a certified fresh score of 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.
The romantic comedy has been critically acclaimed both locally and internationally, becoming the Foxtel Group’s most-watched original scripted series of all time, and premiering on the BBC in the UK and Paramount+ in the US to rave reviews.
What happens at the end of Colin from Accounts season 2?
Season three is going to pick up from the second season’s dramatic and awkward cliffhanger.
The last time we saw Gordon and Ashley, they were both at the wedding for Ashley’s best friend, Megan. Caught up in the romance of the occasion, the couple says ‘I love you’ to each other for the first time – how sweet!
But things took a turn for the worse as Gordon then takes the moment to propose to Ashley at a wedding, in front of everyone on the dance floor.
It was a very awkward and uncomfortable moment where Ashley was left shell-shocked, and Gordon was embarrassed.
In the final season, the pair are determined to move past the faux pas, but they can’t get past their baggage. But amidst the dramas with their families and friends, they still seem to be back in each other’s lives.
Perhaps there is hope after all?
