Nadia Jaynes joins as producer. The show was commissioned for Channel 4 by Commissioning Editor Laura Riseam. Fremantle, parent company of Dancing Ledge, will handle global sales. Series one of "Big Mood" was Channel 4 streaming’s highest new comedy launch since "Derry Girls." It is currently available on Channel 4 in the UK and exclusively on Tubi in the US and Canada.

Story-wise, a year has passed since best friends Maggie (Coughlan) and Eddie (West) last spoke. When Eddie returns for a wedding, she isn’t alone—Maggie now faces competition in the form of an infuriatingly positive spiritual healer named Whitney. Can Maggie and her brand of chaos fit into Eddie’s new life, or will she lose her best friend forever?
