Welcome to NZ Ja'mie

Yes, the rumors are true (thank baby Jesus) Ja’mie: Private School Girl is hitting our very own television screens for the first time ever!

Creator, writer and star of the hit show is from just over the ditch (Australia for you ‘not quite up to date’ folk) Chris Lilley is widely known for his work on Summer Heights High- if you haven’t yet watched that I strongly suggest you do, I can literally watch every episode in a row and not be bored, it’s that good.  

The fictional character Ja’mie (weird name I know, but you’ll get used to it) King first appeared on our TV screens in Lilley’s We Can Be Heroes and then again in Summer Heights High where her honesty was first screened, and we all fell in love.



Finally she has got her own, truly deserved TV show.  Ja’mie is a privileged 17-year-old girl with a feisty, Regina George like attitude towards her pairs and is portrayed by none other than a 39 year old male, Chris Lilley himself. Her honest mouth has just gotten more brutal, but the thing is, you still love her!!


Now if you’re like me and watched the entire series online before it even got the chance to air on the tele you will understand just how damn good it is.

Lilley is HILARIOUS, I repeat HILARIOUS. The Internet has gone wild with memes from the show and Ja’mie has been able to turn the word ‘quiche’ in to an actual adjective used to describe good-looking people < pure brilliance.
Lorde has even managed to jump on the Private School Girl bandwagon by having her album cover made into this...

With a review of 7.2/10 on IMDB this TV series is not to be missed. With guarantee'd laughs you will find yourself quoting the self promoting queen bee herself in regular conversation- I've been there, it can't be helped. I feel like I could talk about Ja'mie for so much longer but then I would just want to attach 20 thousand memes because they are all so hilar. 
First ep airs TONIGHT so MySky that shizz because you will want to watch it over and over:


YOU'RE WELCOME x
