'The Moodys is an eight-part comedy series focused on the loveable, yet seasonally dysfunctional, Moody family as they come together for eight family events over a single year.'

Australia's favourite dysfunctional family The Moodys are back at last with another series filled with hilarity and entertainment.

Following on from the popular A Moody Christmas, Dan (played by Ian Meadows) and Cora (played by Jane Harber) have finally returned home to Australia to set up house together. However, life back in Australia is'nt turning out quite as planned. As they struggle to make ends meet, the Moody family home is up for sale; Sean’s (played by Patrick Brammall) funeral fireworks business is going great guns; Maree (played by Tina Bursill) and Kevin (played by Danny Adcock) test the freewheeling lifestyle of the grey nomads; Bridget (played by Rachel Gordon) and Roger (played by Phil Lloyd) find out if there’s friendship after divorce, especially after Bridget meets the charming Matt (played by Jonny Pasvolsky); and Uncle Terry (played by Darren Gilshenan) is in a tangled love affair with Yvonne (played by Sacha Horler), a one-woman force of nature.

A year of highs and lows unfolds against a backdrop of hysterical family gatherings including Terry’s Australia Day barbecue, which quickly disintegrates into a flag-burning disaster; the annual Moody family Easter Weekend in a caravan park that is not what anyone expected; and Kevin and Maree’s anniversary which turns into mayhem after the surprise arrival of a demanding family member. Plus more challenging moments such as Sean’s court case, Bridget’s surprise birthday and Terry’s run for council.

This would have to be the best new series to Australian television so far this year. The Moodys really is the perfect comedy program, with the most loveable characters and most hilarious storylines. I truly cannot wait to hopefully see another installment from The Moodys, and in particular, what Uncle Terry will get up to next!
