So I watched an episode and this show is facking hilarious.
It's on HBO Canada, Fridays I believe.
The series is only 8 episodes long but it is one of the funniest shows I have seen. Came from Australia, its a mockumentary that follows some High School.
Seriously, try and watch an episode.

Probably one of the best TV shows I've seen. As absolutely flat-out hilarious as it is insightful and socially critical. Chris Lilley is making some of the most interesting television these days. And yes, Jonah Takalua was amazing... I was near tears by the finale (from both laughing and crying).
Check out his first series 'We Can Be Heroes', which also features Ja'mie King ("weird name, I know, but you'll get used to it).
Also, Chris Lilley's new show is coming out soon and in it he plays, among other characters, an hyper-critical Japanese mother:

Dicktation... rangas are everywhere!... Mr. G the musical... more rapists and murderers tend come from public school (it's true)... if you are in year 7 you are not supposed to be here!
So many amazing lines. One of my faves!

The Comedy Network has been playing this series off and on for a couple years now, and yah it's hilarious. Mr. G is just great. When he goes around sniffing students for various things... i cracked up.
And the show wouldn't work with out all the kids that are used as secondary characters, they all do a great job.

watched this a few years ago, it is really funny. I have one scene recorded and protected on my pvr because it makes me cry with laughter every time I watch it...it's the part where they have the polynesian dude in to talk to the kids...friggen hilarious.
Watching Angry Boys now... holy farking political incorrectness. Gays, blacks, deaf people, aboriginals all made fun of. Not even at the first commercial break yet. Awesome.
As someone who works in K-12 education I find these clips painfully hilarious. I wish more of the people I worked with could have the perspective of the scriptwriter and keep a sense of humour about their work.

Summer heights was very funny, just watched it recently.
The girl character was too annoying to listen to though, then the 2nd series has 90% annoying characters except for the 2 countries brothers that are dealign with the deafness.
I'm not trying to be one of these people who comes into a thread to slam it. I just want to mainly point out that I gave the show a shot during season one, and just didn't get it. I have weird tastes in entertainment that I thought that this would be right up my alley, but it just didn't hook me.
Summer Heights High --> Watch it
