    I honestly wish SBS would announce a second season for that. My guess is if we haven’t heard an announcement yet, there won’t be one.

    Kind of surprised Diana wasn’t included in the Satisfaction nom since Madeline and Kestie are there (unless it’s limited to two per show).

    Fantastic! Well deserved!
