A new Australian drama, Dalliance, is presented by multiple outlets as a warm and funny “spiritual sequel” to The Secret Life of Us and Love My Way. The series follows a messy social circle of friends in their 60s, with storylines that mix heightened situations with grounded, everyday moments.
Sources describe the show’s tone as affectionate and comedic, while still centering on adult relationships, life changes, and the friction that can arise within long-term friendships. Across the reviews, attention is drawn to the program’s distinctly Australian character details, which are used to keep the drama relatable even when events escalate.
While the outlets largely agree on the overall positioning and themes, their emphasis is mainly on characterization and tone rather than new factual specifics about plot details. Overall, they align that Dalliance aims to capture a similar spirit to the earlier series, bringing that perspective to an older group of friends and contemporary Australian life.
