Lunatics

Like all of his shows, some truly brilliant comedy and a few dull bits.

But funny funny fun overall!

Different to the previous work by Chris. The detail he goes into for each character is more in depth I think, Some characters are pretty full on and a little annoying but they all had me in tears. Considering he writes, directs and acts for the whole show is a effort in itself, most the time your wondering how many times they shot some scenes without the other actors cracking up as he pulls off some characters so ridiculously well. A specific humour is for sure required to get the most out of this show.

Don't go in expecting a Summer Heights High experience. In fact, you'd do best to forget about a storyline and instead focus on the incredible character work. It would be easy to quit this show early on, but if you like it enough to stick with it, you'll be rewarded. It actually has an incredibly sweet message, and left me feeling great!

At first you think.. hm.. not amazing. Stick with it. Chris Lilley just sets the foundation for his characters! It is honestly a very funny show, so smart and after finishing it find my friends and I often quote some of the characters best one liners. It's bloody funny and will age well.

As always Chris Lilley's new series contains profoundly interesting characters, at first some of them are particularly unlikeable, but that is part of the charm. By the end of Lunatics I found myself enjoying each & every character.

Chris' humour is not everyone's cup of tea, he can be quite confronting, crude, difficult to watch, uncomfortable & offensive. I myself have been a fan since We can be heroes was first broadcast way back in 2005.

I always enjoy how towards the end of a series he ties everything in, the intention flows through and it is often very beautiful and thoughtful. Think of Pat in We can be heroes and you will understand what I mean.

Chris Lilley is a comedic genius. Loved Lunatics.
