"I'm asian?..."

"Yeah but your hot asian so thats alright!"

Summer Heights High is fantastic - i hope Chris Lilley gets asked by the ABC to do another show after....
Oh, jeez, I spilled wine all over your shirt! You know what's good for getting stains out? Sex with another man...

Chris Lilley isn't gay? OMG - I'm with you Christian - he's just too damn good at it!! Hilarious show, love it. Can't wait for tomorrow night's episode... did anyone download it yet?

Did you see they stuffed up and loaded the wrong Episode on the site last week?? The upped 3 instead of 2 so thousands of ppl have now seen it on Utube.... I haven't watched it tho - will wait till tomorrow night!

Yet to hear the language really taking off. I am more likely to use it than students.

These two shows are single handedly (double handedly?) bringing Oz comedy back from the dead. If any sociologist (amateur or professional) tries to stop them doing what they're doing, I'll make them watch 'Hey Dad' until they die (maybe twenty minutes will be enough?) I know this kind of thing is against the Geneva convention, but to hell with that: this is comedy!

nothing surprises me more than large numbers of stupid people calling for satire to be pulled that challenges many assumptions about our world. lilley's program is sheer brilliance and after a wave of unadulterated crap comedy, it is a thorough breath oh politically incorrect fresh air.

Love new character Jonah and just how unPC the storylines surrounding him are. From what I've read of upcoming storylines, its only going to get better!

Holding a mirror up to society for the sake of reflecting satirical parody doesn't endorse racism; it disarms and ridicules it.
The characters of Summer Heights High ridicule the traits that make them funny in the first place.
