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.
I run into an Australian about once a year in Montreal and suddenly launching into singing that song within the first minute is the fastest way possible to make a new friend.
“Have you ever, ever felt like this” Australasian solidarity kicks in like we’re standing in Anzac cove.
