SBS 2 is now showing the super queer series ‘Staring from …Now!’
The popular Australian webseries Starting From…Now! is now showing on actual television.
The web series has already amassed over 21 million views online. In a great historical moment, it is now the very first Australian-produced lesbian series to air on Australian television.
Starting From…Now! explores the lives of four inner-Sydney lesbians as they struggle to work out who they are, find a place where they belong, and maybe find someone to love along the way.
Seasons 4 and 5 are now screening on SBS 2 as TV half hours with the next screening taking place tonight, Monday 21 March at 9:15pm.
SBS2 Head of Programming Caleb James welcomed and congratulated the show on winning the Audience Award for Best Narrative at Queer Screen’s Mardi Gras Film Festival 2016. He said, “As part of our commitment to promoting and celebrating diversity on screen, we’re excited to be taking a series that’s resonated so strongly within Sydney’s LGBTQI community to new audiences around Australia, both on TV and online.”
Previous seasons are available on SBS On Demand, in case you need to catch up!
