Dog Park on ABC is a fresh new comedy – ABC is thrilled to announce the premiere of its brand-new six-part comedy drama, Dog Park, arriving Sunday 1 February at 8:30pm on ABC TV and ABC iview.
Co-created by and starring Leon Ford as Roland, alongside ABC favourite Celia Pacquola as Samantha, Dog Park boasts an outstanding ensemble cast: Brooke Satchwell (Mr Inbetween), Elizabeth Alexander (Clickbait, The Secrets She Keeps), Grace Chow (Good Cop/Bad Cop), Ras-Samuel (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes), Florence Gladwin (Neighbours), Nick Boshier (Bondi Hipsters) and making their television debut, Ash Flanders.
The series is a Matchbox Pictures production, co-created by Executive Producer Amanda Higgs. Matchbox Pictures is part of Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group.
When Roland’s wife Emma leaves him with their teenage daughter Mia who barely notices him and Beattie, the dog he never wanted in the first place, he’s determined to cope brilliantly. But when Beattie disappears and turns up at the local dog park, Roland meets the unbearably optimistic Samantha and her mismatched, life-loving group of dog-parkers. As Roland begrudgingly keeps returning to the park, he comes to realise he might actually need a community to belong to.
Dog Park is a heartwarming tale of belonging, resilience, and the transformative power of connection – both human and canine.
