Most American won't get Aussy humor. I studied there and truly think this a gem.
Frank W. gave it a9:
Great show, perfectly NON PC, with plenty of inhouse jokes. Every Aussie GETS A KICK FROM THIS SHOW OF SUBTEXT!
Stu V. gave it a10:
I'm sorry, this was a huge program in Australia. I knew that before it came to BBC3 in the UK. So I was cautious. But it was a terrific program, believable in ways the original The Office could only dream of. And since then received due recognition in the UK (DVD release got 5 stars in Empire and Total Film). Yet American critics don't get it. Shameful.
Chris D. gave it a10:
You have to understand Australian humor to totally get this. This is just an amazing mocumentary. Chris Lilley's is such an amazing observer and actor.
Eric S. gave it a3:
the bully character was amusing, however a MAN, who is OLD playing a GIRL who is YOUNG is on par with fat suit humor (looking in your direction little Britain). not funny. and the gay drama teacher has been done already in waiting for guffman. i can't wait for monty python America.
Scott B. gave it a10:
at last someone who doesn't care about being PC truly biting funny comedy, its realistic and so clever it finishes so well too, almost a little like the final of Blackadder Goes Forth
