After a popular student dies of a drug overdose, Mr. G has an epiphany for a new school musical based on the girl's life. Completely exploitative and inappropriate... and hilarious.

A "Summer Heights" Summer
Ja'mie explains why people who go to public school are sluttier and "fugly".

A "Summer Heights" Summer
In this scene, Jonah Takalua, the troubled middle school student, raps during class about being Tongan. Keep in mind, this is the same actor who plays Mr. G. and Ja'mie King. This is so inappropriately brilliant!

A "Summer Heights" Summer
Allow me to set the scene for you...
Ja'mie (played by Chris Lilley) is at Summer Heights High for a special exchange program. She's used to being the "it girl" at her private school and wants to continue the trend at SHH. Problem: the most popular girl at Summer Heights is Tamsin; a lesbian. In an outrageous attempt to be seen as cool, Ja'mie finds herself "coming out of the closet" and asking Tamsin to the school formal.
AAAAND ACTION:

A "Summer Heights" Summer
Mr. G.'s psychological assessments for casting the school musical. I love his checklist; "attractiveness, intelligence, mental state...". Some teachers really do take these things seriously. I'm sure we've all had a Mr. G. at one point or another. "Dad ever hit Mum?" "Who's gonna wanna pay to see you on stage... who?!" Priceless.

A "Summer Heights" Summer
If you know me at all, you know that Summer Heights High is one of my favorite television shows ever. Unfortunately, it was somewhat of a special project that only lasted one season. To satisfy my need for laughter, each week I'll be posting one of my favorite clips from Summer Heights High. If you're not familiar with the show, you're missing out. It's basically an Australian mockumentary style show (think The Office) about high school. The creator of the show, Chris Lilley, plays the three main characters (none of whom interact with one another). It's genius and you can read more here.
But enough about the details... on to the laughs:
This clip is an OUTTAKE from my favorite character, Ja'mie King. Keep in mind, she's being played by Lilley. Her character is the stereotypical rich, spoiled, conceited girl. I could dedicate an entire post to Ja'mie's one-liners. Love it!
