Anyone catch this show on Sunday?

My roomate this semester is from Australia and he alerted me to the show's greatness. It didn't disappoint.

If you're unfamiliar with the show, it is written by this guy Chris Lilley who plays a flamboyant male drama student, a thuggish bully and a snobby prep school teenage girl.
__________________
It began innocently enough, with two young lefthanders going pitch for pitch against the two most powerful lineups in the National League.
But the way it ended - with Dan Uggla being mobbed at home plate and a giant teal fish waving an orange flag on the mound at Dolphins Stadium as the 14,000 or so fans who bothered to show up roared - served notice that the Phillies won't be running away with the division anytime soon.

The bully character is hysterical and the snobby girl is very subtly funny.

I laughed so hard at the picture Jonah drew of his dad touching his dick and then the subsequent dad reaction.

The dad's reaction to the pic Jonah drew was absolutely hysterical. One of the funniest TV moments I've seen.

The way Jonah treated the kids he had to look over was hilarious. Then when he gets called on it he says he's just "punking" them. Last night's episode was great.

Also, the blonde that played the "skank" for the demonstration is hot as hell.

God, re-watching the episode where Jonah draws the pic cracks me up.

"Why the fuck would I want to touch his genitals?"

Apparently the guy that made this (Chris Lilley) also has a similar program in Australia called They Were Heroes, or something.
Anyone seen it?
