Summer Heights High
This show is hilarious. Been watching it on HBO and it is amazing. You should also watch it. ne1 else here watch it? It is an Aussie show I know.
Basically it is one guy playing 3 different characters at a school and it is very funny. clips: Jonah Ja'mie Mr. G |

It is pretty decent. I do not watch it religiously or anything but what I've seen I've enjoyed.
My ex's cousin did a parody of Ja'mie for some MTV competition and wound up winning, which was pretty cool. |

I watched it when it was shown over here (in the UK) on BBC3. Good show. Well worth a watch.

Yeah I caught a few episodes, always enjoyed it - but the Mrs hates it so I didn't watch too many.

I remember seeing the guy on a commercial where he pretty much played the same character as the teacher in this show, and it was pretty funny. Like in a Napoleon Dynamite way, but actually funny. My dad and I would always watch the commercial and sort of be hypnotised. It was advertising this sketch show he was a part of, that he was the only good part about (and really only that skit).
I would have gotten more into Summer Heights High if every single dumb-ass girl I know wasn't in love with the show and called it the funniest thing they have ever seen. But there is no doubt that he is very talented at what he does. He'll probably fizzle out now, though. Not too sure if he can do much beyond what he's done on the show already. Chris Lilley has gotten into a lot of shit for the show, apparently. A lot of it has been people being unreasonably censoring, but others have accused him of stealing ideas from other Australian programs. I'm surprised that it's finding life outside Australia, to be honest. |

LOL last night. When Jonah is at the pool and sees the teacher walking over to them.

Also spawned this hit single here in Aus
There was about a month there where you couldnt escape it lol Chris Lilley did another show before this called We Can Be Heroes. Same idea, him playing all main characters. Summer Heights High was the better of the two though IMO. He is rather talented considering he comes up with all of it. |

Yeah pretty hilarious show
Mr G was pretty underrated. Like everyone I know "only watched it for" Jonah. and has spent like the last year quoting his lines. We even have 'Sorry Ranga Day' now |
