Tired of their perpetual single status, five friends at very different stages of their lives make the bold decision to pool their funds and buy a house together. What comes next is a tale of commitment and its consequences, with good measures of love and heartbreak expected as part of such an intricate partnership. An array of socioeconomic, cultural and personal differences quickly gets exposed as Liz, Ben, Heather, Ainsley and Harry see each other's true colors. The journey of this unique, makeshift family culminates with the friends weighing whether to place the house back on the market or double down on their life-changing decision.

John Doyle Globe and Mail 01/15/2021
More bittersweet drama than outright comedy, it's no masterpiece but has considerable offbeat bounce to it. Go to Full Review Ashley Moulton Common Sense Media 08/28/2020
3/5
Fun roommate dramedy with lots of sex and drinking. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 08/13/2020
Won't make you laugh out loud, but as you get to know the people who have bought into this massive mess of a house, you'll likely start rooting for their ersatz family to function like a real one. Go to Full Review Marshall Estes The Spool 08/10/2020
It's familiar without being stale, dramatic without being over the top. It pulls on the heartstrings without feeling sappy, and . . . it doesn't overstay its welcome. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Gracie G @RT84116250 01/06/2025 This fabulous series had me laughing and genuinely crying from the heart! Amazing really how my life seems to be represented, the suppression of emotions came out in all the Episodes but 9k ( ring) season 3 really is so beautifully crafted I'm not sure there is another show from the Victorian Film industry or anywhere that is as spectacular as Five Bedrooms! Thank you See more Read all reviews
