The Moodys is an Australian television comedy series, which follows on from A Moody Christmas. The Moodys began airing on ABC on February 5, 2014 and will air in the United States on Hulu in Spring 2014.
Originally written and created by Trent O'Donnell and Phil Lloyd at Jungleboys, this series also involved some guest writers for an episode each: Patrick Brammall (Episode 5) and Ian Meadows (Episode 7).
In this series, Dan Moody (Ian Meadows) has returned from London to live in Australia, with his now-girlfriend Cora Benson (Jane Harber). This series explores the highs and lows of their rocky relationship, develops several storylines from the other family members and introduces some new characters to the show. It is based over a year of family events rather than a succession of Christmas Days, as it did in the first series. Shot in Sydney, each episode is approximately 30 minutes.
The Moody family gathers at the local RSL to celebrate Kev and Maree's wedding anniversary. But in usual Moody style, the celebrations are disrupted.
It's the annual Moody family Easter Weekend, when the whole clan goes to a holiday park on the NSW south coast. 'House proud' Kev sets up camp around his beloved RV while Sean books himself, Dan, Terry and Cora into a single, tiny Viscount for the weekend, much to Cora's chagrin. Admiring more than the RV, Maree and Kev are invited to join the Australian Cruising Drivers' Club by President Clive Carlyle (Steve Rodgers), however they get more than they bargained for; and Sean is out-scammed by a bunch of teenagers who ask him to buy them beer. Meanwhile, Cora and Bridget, disgusted by the state of the amenities at the campsite, jump the fence of a nearby resort; and Terry goes for a long bicycle ride and has an epiphany about Yvonne.
A wedding dress is fitted, cufflinks donned, women's hair arranged and shoes shined – but who's getting married?
