Funniest and most accurate representation of private schools

chocolatemellowfriend

before I begin, I have to say something. I live on the North Shore of Sydney, right in the heart of the private school culture of where Ja'mie is set. And I have to say, Chris Lilley is 100% spot on in this role.

Everyone I know who lives in this area of Sydney finds Ja'mie hilarious because it is just so accurate. It isn't exaggerating at all. Lilley went to a private school and modeled the character off the girls there. he gets the character so right! The humor is very vulgar in parts and the mockumentary style isn't for everyone, but this show is the best portrayal of a Sydney private school I have ever seen and if you understand the culture, you'll be on the floor with tears of laughter.

I find that generally Americans don't "get" the humour as much, but Aussies will definitely enjoy it.

score 10/10
