East of Everything is an Australian drama television series which began screening on 30 March 2008 on the ABC. It is produced by Deborah Cox, Fiona Eagger and Roger Monk. Two seasons were produced. East of Everything revolves around a globe-trotting travel writer who returns home for his Mum's funeral to a neglected resort town, Broken Bay, on the easternmost point of Australia. He is challenged by a crooked local council, his brother who is trying to cheat him out of his inheritance, his first love who broke his heart when he was a teenager and the son he hasn't seen in ten years. The setting was named by combining the names of Byron Bay and Broken Head.
Terry Adams's lost 'nest-egg' continues washing up on Broken Bay's beaches and after a punch up in the surf, Art and Vance score some waterlogged cash.
After a disturbing dream, Art sets about establishing some new 'tough love' ground rules for his son Josh.
As Lizzy's due date approaches, Bev tries to help her out, and Vance grows unexpectedly close to her. Art finds some success with his memoir, and a hot-air balloon ride goes dangerously awry.
Gerry arranges a getaway boys' weekend for Art and Vance to recover from their romantic woes. But their time at the Bear Rock retreat brings up deep emotional wounds.
The Watkins men are having romantic troubles. Gerry involves himself in Josh's love life, Vance looks to the female resort guests for comfort, and Art begins writing a romance novel to spite Eve.
The three-day cyclonic storm that blew Gerry into town finally departs, leaving in its wake some major damage to the Far Out East.
Art wakes up, five months on since he and Vance re-opened their parents' 70s backpacker hostel, lying next to Eve in a lovers' embrace, and counts his blessings. The brothers are getting on well, and business is starting to pick up.
