Reilly Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Australian comedy series starring Chris Lilley as 3 different characters in a public high school. It's not at all in an annoying Eddie Murphy "Look at me being everyone!" kinda way, he plays a polynesian bully, the most popular girl in school and the schools drama teacher, and really get's their mannerisms down perfectly. Also, the 3 characters never interact, and their storylines don't affect eachother which is a really pleasant touch. He's so convincing playing each one that it took me almost a whole episode to realise he was playing each of them. Anyone a fan?

LindsayTheChampion Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 I love SHH!! Yes, Chris Lilley is even believable as Ja'mie! it's unbelievable. I love all the characters but I think my fave would be Mr. G. My name is Mr. G...3 talents 1 2 3, singing and dancing and acting is myyyyyy liiiiifeeee. I'm a teacher that's for sure, in a school of crazy kids at Summer Heights Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh I love how he turned the school musical into his life story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reilly Posted March 29, 2010 Author Share Posted March 29, 2010 Yeah how he made the musical all about him is genius! I've only seen up to episode 6. It's hard to choose between the 3, but overall I think Jonah cracks me up the most. It's the accent that gets me. "He said he met 50 cent in the fuckin city" J: "I DID meet 50 cent in the city!" "He even made up that he has a girlfriend" J: "I DO have a fuckin girlfriend!" "Whats her name?!" J: "I don't know Manda or some shit.." Or how everytime he has a problem with the female teacher he ALWAYS says "Whats wrong are you on your period or something" and his friends ALWAYS laugh haha.

Reilly Posted March 30, 2010 Author Share Posted March 30, 2010 I am aware it's a bit old, so that's why I posted about it (Because it's popularity has been and gone but I've never heard of it and so far nobody I know has either). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian Plastic Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 Pretty funny, pretty funny... It's not that funny how many people at my school are like Jonah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmmaLouiseSmyth Posted March 30, 2010 Share Posted March 30, 2010 I started watching this show when it was on bbc3 about 2 years ago, when we didn't have many channels for while. It's quite good actually, the characters are done so well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merryberry9 Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Yeah people started calling redheads rangas and now apparently there's some racism against redheads thing. OMG i swear i heard the same thing somewhere! :dozey::rolleyes: It's all so silly - that show is hysterical - i can't wait for the next Chris Liley show that is coming to HBO. Fun fact: my supervisor at work is Australian and is JUST like Mr. G. in every other way which makes every day considerably more fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
