Angry Boys is the new comedy series by Chris Lilley the genius behind We Can Be Heroes and Summer Heights High. To those living outside of Australia the goods news is BBC and HBO are picking up this series like the did with Summer Heights High. I can't recommend Chris Lilley highly enough his work on Summer Heights High in particular was amazing.
Angry Boys follows the same format of his past two shows where it follows a handful of unqiue characters all played by Chris Lilley.
Here is the trailer:

Here is the breakdown of the characters:
Jen Okazaki: A softly spoken Japanese woman who forces her son Tim onto the pro-skateboarding circuit, as a 'gay' rider. Although Tim is not of this orientation, Jen uses her tyrannic attitude to construct a skateboarding enterprise for her son.
Daniel & Nathan Sims: Recurring characters from earlier Chris Lilley series, We Can Be Heroes, Nathan and Daniel are identical twins. Nathan became deaf after an accident at a young age and Daniel donated an eardrum to him. In Angry Boys, much to Daniel's disagreement, Nathan has been enrolled in a 'deaf school' and Daniel attempts to rally support against the movement.
Ruth Sims: The grandmother of Nathan and Daniel who works at the Juvenile Justice Centre for Boys. Sims administers her own version of tough love to the inmates.
S.Mouse: A rapper who has produced the biggest-selling hip-hop single of all time. S.Mouse is confined to his father's house after charged with public nuisance charges.
Blake Oakfield: A champion surfer who, despite his victories, is disliked by many members of his community and is involved in surfing 'gang' battles and the founder of surfing gang Mucca Mad Boys.
It is a shame that he isn't bringing back Jonah since that charcter was my favourite from Summer Heights High. This is going to be a great show and I can't recommend it highly enough.
I haven't looked forward to a debut show as much as this one for a very long time.
