Untitled Part 1

Abby Oliver has perfected the art of blending into the background of her own life, thanks to her overbearing husband of 35 years, Gerald. But when Gerald kicks the bucket (literally, he was cleaning the gutters and slipped), Abby does not become the quintessential grieving widow. Instead, she's ecstatic.

Suddenly liberated from Gerald's iron grip, Abby explores the vibrant world beyond her stitch-and-bitch crocheting circle and marathon Netflix binging. Armed with a newfound sense of freedom and a totally revamped wardrobe, Abby dives into the deep end of life, much to the shock of her well-meaning but utterly shocked adult children.

From Hip-hop dance classes to communicating telepathically with cats, Abby embraces every opportunity with gusto, leaving a trail of chaos (and occasionally her orthotics inserts) in her wake. Along the way, she discovers a knack for adventure and a talent for causing accidental mayhem, much to the chagrin of her more "conservative" friends (?)

As Abby navigates this brave new world of self-discovery, she is drawn to a quirky cast of eccentric characters who celebrate her newfound joie de vivre. With the help of new friend Cassie and a charming yet bizarre neighbour named Sorrell, Abby realizes that the best love affair she can have isn't with a man but with the joyful, authentic life she's been yearning for all along. Because sometimes, the most incredible adventure of all is the one we embark on with ourselves.

The Unorthodox Odyssey of Abby Oliver proves that it's never too late to unleash your inner wild girl and dance like nobody's watching (even if the neighbours might be).
