I don't think too many people on here would be familiar with the show, to be honest.

I know, I've sometimes introduced lesser-known series in this forum.

In escforum.net, people there tend to love using .gifs of Ja'mie King and using her catchphrases. (Then again, in a forum filled with young gay men, people there are gonna latch on to any strongheaded and glamorous female in pop culture.)

You might argue it's an online version of this: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff

Loved that show back in the day, can't believe it aired 10 years ago this year.

I find Ja'mie King in this scene to be relatable because I didn't like the schools I went to from 13-19: j7mYWO-D3zI

Just like how they love using .gifs of the Brazilian celeb Gretchen and how they used to use lots of .gifs of Tiffany "New York" Pollard from Flavor of Love.

TBH, all those recaps of old Aussie hits caused a snowball effect in me.  :P

That's why I find her the most interesting character in this show.

This old joke from my country kind of reminds me of Ja'mie King's subplot: http://enuhbanana.blogspot.com/2009/12/tale-from-cono-side.html?m=1

I was never a fan of the show, to be honest. It was liked by a lot of people though.

Yes, I love the show! The main character is funny as hell!  ;D  ;D  ;D

And yes, I've watched it too.  8)

Plot of said joke: A rich girl studying in a public university who overuses Taglish (Tagalog mixed with English,) feels out of place in her school even though she's been in said school for three years. Her grievances include having no liquid soap in the bathrooms, having to mingle with boys wearing mere tank tops and flip-flops, having to use the Ikot jeep or the university's jeepneys, and the classrooms & the Shopping Center with no air conditioning.

To be fair, these people are more of Ja'mie King fans than they are fans of this show. I mean, about 88% of their Ja'mie King .gifs are from Ja'mie: Private School Girl which was a bit of a flop IRL.

BTW, I can't help but think of her subplot as an angry power fantasy where I go back in time to my old schools and prejudge everyone. ('Cause let's face it, if I did just that, I woulda been right about most people.)
