After a two-year hiatus recent reports suggest the beloved and slightly neurotic Nina Proudman will be back with the rest of the gang for a sixth season.
The Logie-winning drama, which stars the phenomenal Asher Keddie would be a welcomed return to our screens after the abrupt end in 2014.
Claims made by The Sunday Telegraph suggest the show’s pre-production will be given the green light as Endemol, the production company originally behind the project, and producers from Shine, finalise a planned merger. Included in the merger are the masterminds behind the dramedy, John Edwards and Imogen Banks.
We’re still recovering from the shock death of Dr Patrick Reid.
A Channel Ten spokesperson informed the Daily Mail Australia earlier in the week that they’re “in talks with the production company and hopeful Offspring will return, but nothing is definite.”
Though the show ended by tying up Nina’s story with the bubbly blonde finding love with Leo – fans wanted more!
Ten’s chief programming officer Beverley McGarvey told The Daily Telegraphshe’d love to see the show continue.
“There have been five seasons but dramas can go a lot longer than that,” she explained.
“We’re in the process of talking about how we would keep going. It is certainly our intention to make that series last as long as possible and as long as people want to keep watching it.”
Adding, “It was such a powerful end to last season but the team has done a great job of … getting back to the heart and the humour of the show.”
Offspring embedded itself into our television landscape, with Nina becoming Australia’s very own Bridget Jones.
Each week the show delivered great storylines and performances –particularly the heart-wrenching on-screen death of Matthew Le Nevez’s Dr Patrick Reid.
We think Australia will back us up in full support of the return of Offspring!
We say bring back the Proudmans!
