I don't really know where to begin. Definitely one of my favourite television series. Rather than just explain why it's so hilarious, I'll just make a few bullet points to sum up the characters:
- An insane, manipulative and controlling Japanese mother who markets her American skateboarding superstar son as a homosexual, creating a franchise around his homosexuality (despite the fact that he's straight). She buys him a dog called "Gay Dog", which is, in her words, "the first ever gay dog".
- A retired surfing champion who has a childish feud with a rival gang that shot his nuts off.
- A racist and hilarious juvie guard who forms a relationship with a boy that was incarcerated for "wanking a dog".
- Two teenage bogan brothers that live on a farm, one of which is deaf. They rename their mum's boyfriend's dog from "Marcos" to "Fuckos" and teach his 3 year old son how to say "my dad's a fag".
- An African-American rapper who pretends to come from the slums but actually grew up in an upper-class household, sang in a choir, and begged his dad for the Wicked soundtrack. He raps about wanting a "three-legged dog" and his "intellectality".
So yeah, the show's incredibly hilarious. Some critics may call it childish at times, but the show is a mockumentary that is 100% satirical. If you haven't watched it, I seriously recommend giving it a shot.
