Colin From Accounts star and co-creator Harriet Dyer has been cast in a new US pilot, DMV (that’s Department of Motor Vehicles in US-speak).
The CBS pilot, based on a short story by Katherine Heiny, is “set at the place everyone dreads going most: the DMV. Our quirky and lovable characters are making minimum wage, doing a thankless job where customers are annoyed before they even walk in the door. Good thing they have each other.”
She joins previously announced cast member Tim Meadows (Mean Girls, Peacemaker).
Dyer, who previously starred in US drama The InBetween, will play Colette, who is described as “the driving examiner with a huge heart. Colette takes the scared and nervous people because she’s calming and patient and genuinely roots for them to pass. Smart, self-aware, and working on herself, Colette is adorably neurotic, bad with boundaries, and often prioritizes other peoples’ feelings over her own.”
A third season of Colin From Accounts is yet to be confirmed.
“We need to take a break from big ‘ol Colin just to refuel the tank,” Brammall told TV Tonight,in June, “because we’ve been on it for the last 16 months.”
“We’re going to write a movie for someone, and then I don’t know,” Dyer added. “But we’re definitely going to do more if they let us.”
