The Australian actress plays Sheila Rubin, a housewife who escapes her humdrum life by discovering the rising trend of aerobics and health culture. Rory Scovel co-stars as her husband Danny, while Geoffrey Arend, Paul Sparks and Della Saba also appear.
Now it’s been confirmed that Byrne and her character Sheila will be back for more episodes, let’s take a look at how season 1 could end, setting up the second season.
What will happen in the Physical finale?
The penultimate episode of Physical, “Let’s Face the Facts,” ends with Sheila revealing to her husband how she believes they can win him the state assembly election.
Though she tried to quit aerobics, it seems Sheila is going all-in on the venture and hopes it will help Danny succeed too.
The finale, titled “Let’s Get Together” will open with the final stages of the election run, and the results will be revealed later in the episode.
