Latecomers: Season 1 | Ratings & Reviews

Easily the funniest, frankest Australian show of the year. Emma Myers and Angus Thompson—writers with cerebral palsy—shake things up with a glorious bang in this saucy, sassy and seriously snappy dramedy.

"While it’s frequently funny... the pulse point is the very real yearning for sex and companionship we all feel, and the way society renders some of us invisible."

—

The Guardian

"The series portrays a realistic and rarely seen depiction of sex and disability..."

—

Sydney Morning Herald

"The series is a great representation of the intricacies of sex, dating, and physical disability."

—

"An insightful, witty and superbly produced exploration of the fragility of human life and the fear of rejection that accompanies the human need for intimacy."
