If you were searching for a way to start 2022 right, Paramount+ has just the tonic. On New Year’s Day 2022, Paramount+ will stream eight brand new episodes of romantic comedy, Five Bedrooms.
The drama-comedy series tells the story of a group of very different people, from very different backgrounds, at very different stages of life, all living under the one roof.
Back for another big season are Liz (Kat Stewart), Ben (Stephen Peacocke), Heather (Doris Younane), Harry (Roy Joseph), Ainsley (Katie Robertson) and Simmo (Johnny Carr).
This season, they navigate their way through the perils and pleasures of not only co-housing, but turning said house into a bed and breakfast.
Plus, there are now two couples living under one roof, a garden-variety blindside betrayal, a brave new sexual journey, an unexpected parenting proposal, plus one-and-a-half unexpected marriage proposals.
When filming commenced, Five Bedrooms creator and writer Michael Lucas said: “We are so ridiculously invested in these five characters, we simply can’t stop imagining funny, fraught, tragic, joyful situations to put them in. So, we are beyond delighted that we’ve been given a third season to run wild with them again, and we’re delighted to report that the cast have come out of the gates in best-ever form!”
Doris Younane said: “I’ve been in the industry for 35 years and these are the best scripts I’ve read. There’s so much love in season three, so much heart, and the comedy comes from the drama; it’s beautifully positioned. For me, this is great love and I want it to never stop. I’d like to be in a nursing home still shooting Five Bedrooms.”
Five Bedrooms is produced by Hoodlum Entertainment for Paramount+. Developed and produced with support from Film Victoria, and assistance from Screen Australia.
Five Bedrooms Season Three. Streaming Exclusively On Paramount+, From 1 January, 2022.
