    As romance, as comedy, as hangout show, and occasionally as drama, Colin from Accounts is excellent. Gordon and Ashley should probably not be together, except it’s hard to imagine anyone else who would, or should, have them. Which is what makes it all so fun.

    Brammall and Dyer both rise to the occasion as actors, lending Gordon and Ashley’s relationship a poignant complexity. A show like Colin From Accounts really is something to be treasured. It’s one of those small, lovely gems that almost feels too good to be true in today’s TV landscape.

    The second season of Colin from Accounts is that rare follow-up that isn’t just as good as the first – it’s better.

    Why does it work? Yes, the comedy of embarrassment is supremely well-oiled. More than that, you simply root for the protagonists as they ironise their anxieties and awkwardness. .... Is certain to leave Colinophiles hankering for a third.

    Colin from Accounts might very well be the best show that few are watching over here in the States, but that also means there's no better time for viewers to catch up and familiarize themselves with this absolutely charming show.

    Reconciling expectations with reality is a key part of any relationship, and it’s at the core of Colin From Accounts‘ exceedingly charming second season. Dyer and Brammall, in addition to having the kind of natural chemistry most romantic leads can only dream of, are keen observers of humanity.

    Although the show is never quite as compelling when our heroes aren’t the center of attention, the second season does draw plenty of comic mileage elsewhere.

    Colin from Accounts isn’t immune to rom-com conventions — there is an eventful wedding, as in so many other series. But really, who’s to split hairs? It’s funny.

    Colin from Accounts is a high point; they’re quite delightful, and have a knack for playfully stretching out moments that in other hands might have felt long and laboured.

    Success may change some people but – one admirably restrained celebrity cameo aside – this show still feels like the gem it did the first time around.

    As we get to know the characters on a deeper level with each episode, it feels this show will just go from strength to strength - and long may it continue.

    We’re not sure how much more juice there is left to squeeze from the lemon that is Ashley and Gordon’s odd relationship, but Colin From Accounts tries its best to do just that, while expanding what we know about the world around them.
