Angry Boys

After initial disappointment I found this series to hit something above the normal. As the stories developed I realised I was not watching Lilley but watching entirely authentic characters. He is a great actor, writer and commenter on society. The characters are like from a modern Ibsen play; good characters but not necessarily of good character. As the narratives slowly piece together (and it is a very gradual process) something emerged for me that was close to the sublime; a humanity that is more important than the comedic values, a sincerity that is more valuable than the dramatic qualities and a genuine compassion for the characters. I am so happy I stayed with it and watched the series in it's entirety. The emotional gratification in the latter episodes had me overwhelmed at times.

Best ever. Bottom line. Everyone missed the point..

Pure dark humor. For those who are easily offended, please excuse yourself from viewing. Crude, rude, absolutely hilarious!

I, like some other reviewers, stumbled upon this little diamond by accident.

Although it is not a new format (mockumentary) Chris Lilly presents us with believable characters that we can learn to "love to cringe" with!

Great fun and with story-lines that usually interlink at some point.

It is clever but with a splash of total silyness but stories that leave you wanting more.

I feel I know the characters already and know this will run and run.

Even though I am from the UK, I have met most of them in one form or another.

Well done Chris!

When I first hear about this show from a friend, I didn't really care much for it, I thought just another comedy show, but I was very wrong, when I watched the first episode on BBC iPlayer I was absolutely blown away,it was a very funny show, but yet very realistic, the comedy is not over the top, the characters are fantastic and very well played, and the last few episodes show that the show can be very emotional, I had never heard of Chris Liley before this show, and as I looked him up on IMDb he seems to be quite famous in Australia, I will have to look up some more of his work overall 10 out 10, a very good show and I hope there are more series to come!
