Fisk spin-offs coming to ABC Including Fisk and the Wisk.
Season 2 final Wednesday 30 November - episode 6.
Deborah Kennedy was a brilliant guest star this week. They should definitely get her back for another episode. Cracked up at her comments about Rozâs hair and calling her Madame Cassowary.
âOh dear! Whatâs wrong with your headâŚ?â
Season final of a too-short season is tonight
Snitches get riches
Ray is on leave and has entrusted Helen to hold the Gruber fort. Helen meets with a May/ December couple to discuss their wills and Petro drops by reception with some news for Helen. Roz reveals another passion project and is called away to a local emergency. When allegations against Helen emerge, the Gruber siblings must make a difficult decision regarding Helenâs future with the firm.
Bloody funny episode tonight. Best of this series.
It was great. Looking forward to next weekâs new series âPetro wants a Soulmateâ?
Fisk premieres on ITVX tomorrow (Thursday).

Has people calling for the second season to be released as well. ABC iView though is probably still getting views for that.
For free, and they took the risk to commission the series.
Of course the Netflix viewers outside Australia canât access iView.
The ABC should put more of their quality comedies on Netflix. They seem to find a wider audience even in Australia. I suggest Upper Middle Bogan and The Librarians.
Upper Middle Bogan is already there, has been for some time plus a number of other ABC titles too.
Itâs not just up to the ABC to sell them to Netflix, there has to be internet and demand from the streamer both locally and internationally for what would suit audiences.
Season 3
Helen (Kitty Flanagan) is now a name partner at Gruber & Fisk which means new responsibilities and pressures, largely due to Ray (Marty Sheargold) having other things taking up his time. Things like his new (age appropriate) lady-love and her âfashion profilingâ business. Meanwhile Roz (Julia Zemiro) has a midlife crisis, Viktor (Glenn Butcher) resigns as Rozâs assistant and George (Aaron Chen) jumps ship to work for Conch Mediation. On the home front, Helen has finally moved out into a place of her own. But true to form she soon gets her new neighbour offside. And in an ironic twist, Helen and Viktor become the stereotypical, over-emotional, irrational, bickering family members when Dad (John Gaden) decides to update his will.

Maybe a vague reference to Marty himself taking indefinite break from his media career?
No, it clearly says otherwise:
