Post Holiday Blues Streaming 25' - Strife - Season Two

Strife recently returned. This time not as a binge (well it streams on Binge ironically) but week-to-week. Mostly with double episodes on Thursday's.

Starring Asher Keddie as Eve, the second series commenced last month produced by Lorelle Adamson for Made Up Stories and Fifth Season, with executive producers for the second season including Bruna Papandrea, Steve Hutensky, Katie Amos, Mia Freedman, Sarah Scheller, Alison Hurbert-Burns, Lana Greenhalgh and Asher Keddie.

The story of Mia Freedman and MammaMia continues across season two with tech bro's moving in, expansions and competition in the media market.

Strife season one (also on Binge) was set around year 2012 and follows Eve (Keddie), who is running Eve, a new women's web site. 

Her personal life is beset by problems; she has abandoned her marriage and marital home, but is struggling to pay the rent on her city apartment. Meanwhile, she navigates co-parenting teenage children with her estranged husband, Jon (Day).

Her fortunes and those of the nascent website change when she writes a confessional column, "I ended my marriage over a flat white" that goes viral.

Binge was done well with this easy-breezy Aussie comedy continuing in season two.

There have been rumours of an Asher Keddie series getting another season. Will that be for Fake or Strife? I feel like Fake on Paramount+ was more a miniseries vibe, whereas Strife could easily continue as Eve's media empire grows.

This season the podcast was launched! Next season more social media viral moments?

Strife is a quality series that may have been released too late for this year's Logie nominations landing in a few Monday's. However I am happy while Binge lost HBO content, they have continued with some solid Aussie content. Next up the co-pro Mix-Tape from Thursday.

Happy long weekend dear readers!
