Highlights From Chris Lilley’s Reddit AMA


Following up the cruel tease from yesterday re: a new show potentially featuring Jonah “Puck You” Takalua, Chris Lilley has just delivered what may well be the quichest Reddit AMA of all time. 

Chris Lilley candidly answered dozens of Reddit’s ja’mazing questions behind his genius, his characters, and his creative process, and seemed to slyly promise a lot of spin offs and comebacks.
