Guess who's back! Stan confirms a fifth and final season for Australian favourite series Bump

As a devoted fan who has been following Bump since its debut, I am beyond excited for its fifth and final series premiering this Boxing Day! This Australian gem has become a cherished part of my television routine, resonating deeply with me due to its relatable characters and authentic portrayal of life’s ups and downs.


Popular Australian series Bump will be back for a fifth and final series on Stan this December. 

This week, the broadcaster unveiled a teaser for the much-adored show, announcing that it will air on Boxing Day as Stan called it a “yearly Christmas event for every Australian home.

The comedy-drama series is created by Claudia Karvan (who also stars) and Kelsey Munro.

The story primarily focuses on Oly (Nathalie Morris) and her boyfriend Santi (Carlos Sanson Jr), who experience an unexpected pregnancy while they’re both still attending school during the first season.

The duo can rely on a broad circle of relatives and acquaintances for assistance, with Oly’s mom Angie (Karvan) and dad Dom (Angus Sampson) among them.

As a diehard fan, I can barely contain my excitement as I eagerly anticipate diving back into the heartwarming world of the Chalmers-Davis clan! In this final season, Stan has promised us that we’ll be there for key milestones in their lives – from Oly’s next journey into motherhood to Angie’s unwavering fight against cancer. I simply can’t wait to witness these pivotal moments and stand by them every step of the way!

In the fifth season of Bump, the Chalmers-Davis family grapples with the harsh truth of Angie’s diagnosis, which unfortunately clashes with the happiness surrounding Oly’s second pregnancy, as expressed in their official statement.

Simultaneously, Oly is dealing with both pregnancy and the anxiety of being unemployed, a situation that could escalate into deeper worries if she doesn’t manage to regain her momentum.

‘Are you regretting getting pregnant,’ Santi asks Oly in a scene from the trailer.

‘I don’t know how to answer that today,’ she replies. 

In another part of the series, Dom and Tim, played by Ryan Johnson, will eventually achieve their goal of starting a record store, though they’ll encounter some obstacles along the way.

Vince (Ioane Saula) is putting effort into sustaining his fresh relationship with Van (Sana’a Shaik), despite her testing his personal limits. Simultaneously, he’s striving to move past Reema (Safia Arain), who appears to be involved with Rakim (Arlo Green).

To put it simply, the ending for the Chalmers-Davis family seems destined to be a poignant and emotional farewell, filled with both drama and sweetness, much like the final notes of a swan’s song.

In an exclusive interview with Daily Mail Australia before the fourth season debut in 2023, the cast of The Bump shared their insights into what has made this show a hit.

As an utterly smitten admirer, I can’t help but echo Morris’ sentiments when he shared with Daily Mail Australia that the show, featuring his captivating portrayal of Oly, is striking a chord with countless souls. It truly resonates with me, and I believe it does the same for multitudes of others!

The program is incredibly inspiring, and it truly embodies the Aussie spirit by turning adversity into opportunity. Many people in Sydney, I believe, can relate to the portrayal of their hometown in this show,” she stated.

‘There are also heaps of characters that a lot of people can resonate with.’

Morris’ fellow actor, Sanson Jr., who portrays Oly’s partner Santi, concurred, stating: ‘I believe it’s because life is filled with ups and downs, or “bumps,” that people can relate to it.’

As a lifestyle enthusiast and the on-screen character Matias, I can confidently say that the inner west Sydney setting for our show provides an authentic and immersive backdrop to our storytelling. This vibrant and eclectic part of the city not only enriches the narrative but also offers a unique and engaging experience for our audience.

He pointed out that instead of the familiar sights of New York or Los Angeles, you find yourself in Sydney. It seems many folks have a strong affection for the inner western districts.

The characters exhibit a striking sense of authenticity and vulnerability; they don’t sugarcoat or conceal their emotions. We witness the deterioration of personal relationships, the struggles of adolescence, and situations reminiscent of real-life experiences.

Simultaneously, Paula Garcia, portraying Rosa Hernandez, expressed her belief that viewers can identify with at least one character from the show.

‘Every person can identify with at least one or many characters,’ she said.

‘Many people see themselves. It’s also quite different, very woke, very feminist and very modern.’ 

In 2021, when it first aired, the comedy-drama quickly became one of the most well-liked and highly praised shows on Stan, and a spin-off series titled “Year Of” was launched in 2023.

Beginning Boxing Day, the fifth and concluding season of Bump will be available exclusively on Stan. All episodes from seasons one through four are currently streaming on the same platform.
