Sit Down, Shut Up(2001)

Sit Down, Shut Up is an Australian sitcom that aired on Network Ten from February to June 2001 across 13 episodes. The series centres on the dysfunctional staff and students of Carpen Heights Secondary College, with particular focus on the teachers' lives both inside and outside the staff room. The show's irreverent take on high school life proved short-lived, though writer Michael Reed later claimed that the more successful Summer Heights High borrowed conceptual elements from the series when it debuted six years later.
