Original question by @Justathroughdaway@lemmy.world

Ask any Australian/New Zealander who grew up in the late 2000s or early 2010s what they're favourite show was and they'll probably say something by Chris Lilley. In particular Summer Highs High or Jonah From Tonga. I used to love watching these shows when I was younger and Lilley is such a great actor. To this day there still quoted in schools all over NZ and Australia.

    Never seen it, but I hear it's schtick is that all the characters are horrid.

    It’s like if the It’s Always Sunny characters took more effort to pretend they were good people, but silently ruin the lives of everyone around them.

    I actually enjoyed it if only because it can give some context on how people justify some of the absolutely insane things they do. Very much a slow burn.
