ORIGINAL SERIES “GOOD GRIEF” RETURNS TO IFC AND SUNDANCE NOW
Irreverent New Zealand Comedy Premieres Thursday, August 4 as a Binge Launch on Sundance Now, Adopted by a Two-Episode Broadcast Premiere Wednesday, August 17 on IFC
NEW YORK – July 11, 2022 – AMC Networks’ IFC and the focused streaming service Sundance Now introduced that Season 2 of the irreverent kiwi comedy Good Grief will make its U.S., Canadian and U.Ok. premiere on Thursday, August 4 as binge launch on Sundance Now, adopted by its North American two-episode broadcast premiere on IFC starting Wednesday, August 17.
Co-created, co-written and starring sisters Eve and Grace Palmer together with co-creator/co-writer Nick Schaedel, the six-episode comedy collection is ready in small New Zealand city and follows two millennial sisters with very totally different personalities who inherit a funeral residence from their grandfather.
Since inheriting the Loving Tributes funeral residence in Season 1, Ellie (Eve Palmer) and Gwen Goode (Grace Palmer, Adrift) have set off on very totally different paths. Ellie embraces her internal ‘girlboss’, with all of the ill-fitting pantsuits, novice TV adverts, and plumber liaisons that entails. In the meantime, Gwen spends 5 months DJing in Bali and reappears unexpectedly in New Zealand to find their mom has a brand new boyfriend and she or he’s been kicked out of the household residence. Gwen strikes in with Ellie, takes up the job of social advertising for Loving Tributes, and embarks on a infantile prank struggle towards their mom’s new associate. As household tensions escalate at work and at residence, Ellie should resolve whether or not to intervene, or let Gwen develop up all by herself.
Good Grief, Season 2 is directed by Kiel McNaughton (The Legend of Baron To’a, My Life is Homicide), produced by Angela Cudd (I Am Waru) and Kerry Warkia (Vai, Waru).
