An expression of approval, often for a job well done, or approval of a characteristic. Amplifications include, 'jolly' (polite), 'bloody' (impolite) and others. Sometimes used sarcastically. Primarily dated/retro British slang. Intentional:
You invite some friends over to watch TV, and they show up with pizza and/or Chinese take-out. You: "Good show!" Sarcastic: Bobby rides his skateboard down some steps, hops up on a railing, slides down it, loses his balance, and lands face-first on the concrete. Eric: "Jolly good show, ol' chap!" |

An outdated proclamation of satisfaction usually made in a semi-British accent by a CPA (Certified Peeler of Assorted fruits).
Always accompanied by locking the arm to a 90 degree angle and swiping in a downward motion, possibly to disguise the soiling of the front of the pants. Can be either preceded/followed by an expression of "damn shit". Mr. Rick: How's everything coming along?
Ms. Dying: I almost finsihed Massachuts. Mr. Rick: Damn shit..Good show!! |
