Lawrence Mooney wrapped up his first season of Dirty Laundry Live last night for ABC2 with the good news that the show will return in 2014.
ABC2 Channel Controller Stuart Menzies told cast and crew at the cast party that the show would be back next year with another 16 episodes.
Menzies said the idea for the show began with a discussion with Head of Entertainment Jennifer Collins at the Edinburgh Festival 13 months ago. It was developed by Mooney with Series Producer Peter Lawler and Executive Producer Tarni James.
The show hasn’t been without its share of controversy, mostly for some risque language, but it’s also found a rhythm on the off-Broadway channel instead of being in the primary channel spotlight.
Comedian Luke McGregor has also been one of the show’s finds.

Brooke is the weakest link. Luke, Ronnie, Lawrence, Marty & Zoe are the stars of this!
I share the like for Brooke Satchwell as well, didn’t know a whole lot about her apart from knowing she had been in a number of Aussie shows that I didn’t really watch, found her brilliant in Dirty Laundry … glad the show is returning.
I liked Brooke too, she has a really good sense of humour.
Not sure on Luke. It feels like he was trying too hard in the end.
Love Luke McG, he does uncomfortable awkwardness like nobody else.
Great news and should get a spot on ABC1 on Thursday for all those people who don’t know about multichannells.
I would agree about getting rid of Luke McGregor, his segments are awful.
Good show except for Luke McGregor, and when Josh Thomas was on.
Great news, but agree re: Luke – was funny episode one, now it’s just cringy and pointless.
I hope Brooke returns to the show next season, her & Lawrence are gold together.
Yes, not a fan of Luke McGregor, I usually fall asleep during his segments. Glad this show is returning.

I agree. I love the show, but can’t stand Luke McGregor.
For me, the Luke McGregor segments are the only thing I don’t like about the show.
Provides lots of laughs. They should move this to ABC1 next year.
Great news, I love this show, it was really funny.
Funny and enjoyable show (except for the episode that had Josh Thomas on it – delete).
