Trailer for Chris Lilley's Ja'mie: Private School Girl on ABC1

CHRIS Lilley's much-anticipated new comedy Ja'mie: Private School Girl, will premiere on ABC1 at 9pm on October 23.

A teaser trailer to the forthcoming six-part, half-hour comedy series was released on Wednesday.

Ja'mie King is one of comedian Chris Lilley's most popular characters. She was a hit with audiences on 2005's We Can Be Heroes: Finding The Australian of the Year and 2007's Summer Heights High.

The new show follows the catty 17-year-old in her final school year at Hillford Girls Grammar School.

The mockumentary has the ``prettiest girl in school'' back to her old tricks: getting into cat fights, bullying less popular girls with her clique of minion, mocking students with a disability, Asian girls and lesbians, and showing off her many `abilities' in the sports field and on the stage.

``I'm basically what I like to say, `cos my name's Jamie, Jam-azing.''

Loved Summer Heights though I preferred Jpmah. Haven't seen We Can Be Heroes. Will probably watch Private School Girl, but Ja'mie wasn't my fav char.

We Can Be Heroes was the best of it. I think this is a few years too late.

Agreed, We Can Be Heroes was great. Angry Boys was funny for about 5 minutes. That said I'll watch this as well but I'm not holding my breath

I liked Angry Boys, and still occasionally leave a Chomp somewhere conspicuous in the house to keep the housemate on his toes.

This guy is such a one-trick pony. Mildly amusing at first, but desperately unfunny after repeated exposures.

Agreed. I think I chuckled at a few Jonah moments, but the rest is shit.

Ja'mie is pretty rotten but fuck she can be amusing and funny to quote. I still accuse my friends for not giving me any fucking support after my sponsor kids died.
