Binge-watching #MotherAndSon w. @mattokine & @_denisescott. No spoilers but keep your eyes open for the guest star playing Dr Edgar George Wilkins in S1Ep6. btw Catherine Văn-Davies is outstanding as Maya. 😊 📺

Could kick myself for binge watching #MotherAndSon on #ABC iView. Now what am I going to watch at 8.30pm tonight? As for those yet to check it out, do yourselves a favour! It stars #Thornbury’s own @_denisescott and @mattokine, who probably wishes he lived in Thornbury.

@_denisescott I am LOVING your Maggie. Loved Ruth’s but you’re bringing such a great alternative. Clever writing and really enjoying the similarities vs differences. Thank you for taking on this project. More series’ pleas Auntie!!! – at Adelaide, South Australia

Caught the first episodes on iview too Wendy. The tone is perfect
It's very difficult to balance and get that delicate sweet spot between satire/humour and pathos/sadness.
It has just enough of the bitter sweet
(ps: I've never seen the original, so I'm not comparing)

I love that @mattokine wasn't afraid to pursue this ripper remake. Us white mother's and our black babies thank you. 🍷

Caught up with 'Mother and Son' - with the superb @_denisescott She is magnificent, her comic timing on point (as always). Plaudits for all the cast and crew and @mattokine who updates the scenario perfectly. Well done, all.

Dear @_denisescott @mattokine
Huge congrats to both of you for #MotherAndSon. I love the ensemble cast and the delightful warm-hearted tone of the show. But I esp. enjoy all the little moments (the small pauses, the glances, witty asides) from each of you. It's so good. 😊

This 'remake' is so far removed from a 'remake' it allows both versions to stand on their own merits. There's so much more in the new version I love without feeling I'm cheating on the original. 🥴
Denise Scott retweeted
Exactly and well put! I was reluctant to watch the new version because I loved the original so much, but after 2 episodes, I am absolutely loving the new version. It is truly a modern day homage to something old(er) that was fantastic and loved.

If you're not watching ABC's #MotherAndSon with @_denisescott @mattokine Angela Nica Sullen @virginia_gay and others, you are missing so much. Quality, kind-hearted, funny Australian comedy. 😊

Who watched #MotherandSonTV last night? Any favourite moments?? ICYMI - you can catch up on ABC iView tonight! And put next wednesday in the calendar for ep 2 🙌🏾... @ABCTV @deni

Loved it ❤️ Big fan of the original. This is a really great take for modern Australia. All the warmth, humour and love was still there. Maggie still loosing it but lovable, Arthur still a bit inept but caring. Robbie still looking for opportunities. Well written and performed. 💜

@_denisescott you were amazing 🤩!!!!!
The show is brilliant
