Returning: Togetherness

HBO comedy drama Togetherness from the Duplass brothers returns later this month.

The series that follows four adults nearing 40 who continue their search to find meaning will air Express from the US on Showcase.

Togetherness season two follows the highs and lows of four adults trying to balance their relationships and individual dreams. After nearly reaching their breaking points last season, Brett and Michelle (Mark Duplass and Melanie Lynskey) struggle to make sense of where their marriage might be heading; Michelle tries to handle her guilt over a night with another man while pushing ahead with her charter-school plans, while an out-of-work Brett looks for artistic inspiration. Following his big acting break, Alex (Steve Zissis) returns from New Orleans reinvigorated – and with a new girlfriend in tow – but his newfound success threatens to disrupt his relationships back home.

Meanwhile, Michelle’s sister Tina (Amanda Peet) has a hard time coming to terms with what should be her “happily ever after” life with her movie-producer boyfriend, and is thrown for a loop when she realises her biological clock is ticking. Through it all, this makeshift family continues to face the hilarity and anxieties of everyday life, while proving they’re truly at their best when they’re together.

Tuesdays from February 23 at 8.00pm on Showcase.
