Content(TV show/series, 2019)

Content is a 2019 Australian comedy web series that was produced by Ludo Studio in Brisbane, Queensland, for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). It is the first scripted comedy series to be presented in the vertical video format and designed to be watched on smartphones. The show stars Charlotte Nicdao as 23-year-old wannabe influencer Lucy Goosey and Gemma Bird Matheson as her down-to-earth friend Daisy Laing. In the first episode, Lucy flips her car while simultaneously webcasting and driving, earning her the nickname #Flipgirl. Her video goes viral on social media and she attempts – unsuccessfully at first – to capitalise on her instant fame. After exploring several video genres, Lucy finally finds real celebrity but her friendship with Daisy is ruined. In the final episode, Lucy publicly apologises to Daisy, who attempts to contact Lucy. When a clip showing the accident was webcast on Facebook, some viewers mistook it for a real-life accident and it went viral, attracting 1.2 million views on Twitter. Reviewers gave Content a mostly positive reception. ()
