Everyone should know of my love (obsession) with all this English by now. All my friends seemed to be banging on about this show called 'The Inbetweeners', which they mentioned that I'd love. Proving how obvious my tastes are, they were correct and because of my incredibly bad procrastination issue (no really, I have a colour co-ordinated wardrobe and alphabetised DVD collection), it's taken over my study time for my exam. So I'll post my poor exam results in a few weeks.
The Inbetweeners focuses on four socially inept school friends in the 6th form (year 11 equivalent, I think), and their misfortunes with life...but mostly girls. It's crude, a bit obvious but mostly hilarious. I know the whole virgin group of friends is all a bit American Pie-esque but the English do know how to make a witty show. All you need to do is watch Australian sitcoms and realise how shit the quality of writing and concepts are. Actually are there any Australian sitcoms? Well replace Australian with American and the garbage they produce like 'Two and a Half Men' and 'The Big Bang Theory'.
People say the show 'Skins' is what you wish high school was like and 'The Inbetweeners' is what it really was like. Anyways, you should check it out so I have someone to go on about it with and seeing as it won't let me embed any videos, here's a
link to the videos on youtube and one to a
character guide.

Sounds interesting, should check this out. The Brits generally know how to make great television.
I am glad you poured cold water on the Big Bang Theory for me. I am yet to see it, but judging by the type of people that love it and have recommended it to me, I have no doubt it is rubbish.
big bang theory is horrendous!!!
ive seen one episode of inbetweeners and it had made at the first milf joke
i never know when its on so i always miss it, to the best of my knowledge its only on GO channel rather than nine.
The Inbetweeners is my favourite new show too!
I had to get both seasons.
It's hilarious.
Hi-larious.
Kudos to this post.
Big Bang Theory = Big Pile of Shit.
