    I seriously recommend you download the series here and watch them. Funniest TV Show ever in here in Australia.

    It's about a Teacher, Girl and a guy from a school in Australia (all played by the same person), and just about their lives. Check it out :wink:

    That show is hilarious...i watched one ep a week ago, and it was great...i will be downloading the series when i finally get off speedcapped...damn speed capped

    Chris Lilley (the comedian) is hilarious, and the thing is that I wouldnt be surprised if its not that far from the truth....I know there are definately girls like J'aime in my year level

    Also his first series, We Can Be Heroes I think it was called was also awesome!

    This show is the most amazing Australian comedy in a very long time!! (The Chaser fall under a different category and they're really hit and miss)

    I unfortunately have a Mr G at my school, plenty of Jonah's and every single girl (except me of course :icon_wink ) is a walking, talking J'amie.

    I've got an episode podcasted, but it takes about 3-4 hours per episode! It's not a reflection of my new laptop, but merely how in-demand the show is.

    Everyone is getting a copy of this on DVD for Christmas... 'that's not disruptive, that's entertainment...'

    Three words....funniest...show....EVER!!

    I watched some episodes of "We can Be Heroes", the other comedy series that Chris Lilley created and it was equally as hilarious. He's a very talented man.

    I went onto the abc website and they have games where you can dance with Mr G, or get Jonah to tag a wall for you. I've even seen a myspace account for them all as well.

    I agree with Vates in that it's been too long since Australia has produced a comedy series that genuinely makes you laugh.

    Round of applause :eusa_clap

    My drama teacher is exactly like Mr G he peformed a intepritve dance to his vce englis class about te black plauge and the school play you just saw him trying to undermind the actual directors every desition.
    I love his notes around the kitchen "Please cover all food in the microwave there are no cleaning faries" "Please wash your own dishes the dish fariys are on holiday" " if anyone touches ANY of my food i will consider it as theft and it will become a police matter"

    Did anyone see tonight's episode? I'm so upset about Celine!! How will Mr G go on?!

    Chris Lilley is unbelievably funny... he's so talented!
    Oh and a random fact; the principal in the show used to teach at my school!
    Anyways, can't wait for next week's show... I'm beginning to get more enthused about watching this show than The Chaser's..

    The final episode was SO good...I seriously recommend everyone downloading it from Itunes (its free and legal)

    I felt so sorry for Jonah, and I truly believe that his reaction is so true and faithful, as in I can imagine someone like that going completely reclusive (not really the right word but anyway) about leaving the school, and having to be dragged away. Best moment was when he took his hands aways and he was pretty much crying...And Leon is so cute, he seemed like such a nice guy

    And Ja'mie is just hilarious, and honestly there are so many ppl like that at my school, its not funny

    The "Arena Spectacular" was AWESOME...so funny...I loved how "Celine" was replaced by a huge dog and lifted away with angel wings!

    Anyway, it was great

    Today Tonight makes me laugh...and not in the way that Summer Heights High does...Today Tonight and A Current Affair are not news programs...the majority of their "news stories" are sent in by their viewers. By this I mean that those shows actually advertise for viewers to send in complaints for A Current Affair and Today Tonight to do news stories on...That's not journalism, thats getting the public to do your job.

    Sorry I went off ona bit of a tangent, its just that those shows annoy me

    And that German Shepherd was soooo cute!
