Once a riotous comedy about teenage pregnancy, the Aussie show "Bump" has morphed into a thoughtful dramedy about family, parenthood and life as we enter the final season. Here's how to watch "Bump" season 5 from anywhere with a VPN — and potentially for free.
All ten episodes of "Bump" season 5 are available now.
• FREE STREAM — BBC iPlayer (U.K.)
• AUS — Stan
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
From recent hit “Colin From Accounts” to the criminally underseen “The Moody’s”, Australia knows how to deliver comedy that will leave your funny bone as tickled as your heart strings are pulled. “Bump” has been one of the best examples of that pitch perfect tone in recent years, as we’ve watched Oly (Nathalie Morris) and Santi (Carlos Sanson Jnr) go from woefully unprepared teenage parents to a functioning, confident family. Oly’s streak of teenage angst has softened and would-be delinquent Santi has become a sweet and caring father.
In fact, the pair are such old hands at this parenting malarkey that season 5 finds them getting set for another go round, with Oly pregnant with their second child. It’s not all cause for celebration however, with Angie’s (Claudia Karvan) cancer returning and Oly struggling with finding a purpose outside of motherhood. And with adult problems overwhelming the Chalmers-Davis’ and a sibling on the way, original bump Jacinda (Ava Cannon) begins to question her place in the family.
With The Guardian calling the fifth and final season “genuinely funny and frequently devastating”, expect to shed every kind of tear as we bid goodbye to this excellent comedy-drama.
Ready to bid farewell to the Chalmers-Davis clan? Read on to find out how to watch “Bump” season 5 online and from anywhere.
