Trailer Park Boys!

[trini]

This is one hilarious show.One great Canadian Original here folks.

[jedijome]

i've tried to sit through a couple of episodes, but i find them quite pointless and stupid. If you want to go watch 6 feet under, "nip/tuck" or "dead like me", now these are some good shows.

[trini]

I think i've seen these shows you pointed out way before you have.Yes they are good.
Trailer park boys just make you laugh.Pointless humour is great.

[Defiant]

I agree! Its a great show!

I admit I didnt like it when I saw my first episode, seemed stupid. But give it a chance, watch a few eps, get to know who the characters are. My gf hated it too until she saw a few eps and now shes hooked too.

Great show

trini: knock, knock .......

it's a great show, one of the best characters is the jonathan tawrence (from jonovision), the guy who is a big wigger in the show

also nip/tuck is one of the best shows ever created

Is this show the CRTC's idea of protecting Canadian content from the deluge of American programming? If so, I think it's time the CRTC received a boot to the head.

[chillin]

what does the crtc have to do anythign with the show other than having a network play so much canadian content and setup guidelines.

if you want to ***** at a gov agency for funding it would be the tax credit council of where ever its filmed (nova scotia) and canada and also telefilm.

Doesn't the CRTC mandate that each Canadian network have a certain pecentage of canadian content in their programming schedule? If they did not mandate this quota would this show even exist? Perhaps the only reason for the existence of this low budget show is to meet the quota percentage.

This show has a fairly large (albeit cult) following. The episodes have been released on DVD recently. It is actually a very funny show, and the humour, while often crude in nature, is often very well-written and acted. I enjoy it more as I watch more and more episodes.

[tharsan]

no, Bubbles is the man!! hahaa, stealing shopping carts, its pure genious!!

has season 3 started yet? i think it has, but i've yet to see an episode, after watching all of season 1 and 2 (season 1 was weak imo, but season 2 was grrreat!)

[PriceChopper]

season 3 is over already, it was like 8 in eps, i think, that's the only beef i have with the show, the seasons are really short

I would rather they do it that way than do 5 more lame shows where they are stretching for ideas, though. And I agree, the show really hit it's stride in the second season. I haven't seen the third yet...

3rd season is great too. Probably my fav ep from S3 was when J-Roc decides to make a rap video. They go into his trialer and catch him looking at a porno mag and 'rockin the mic.'

I would also love to see more episodes but in a way I like the fact that they make you want to come back for more.

Season 4 starts in Spring so you have lots to time to watch the S3 repeats.

LOL, that part was one of the funniest moments for season 3, it was just too hiliarious, whenever i watch that scene i still burst out laughing. Plenty of re-runs await in the future, i might order seasons 1&2 soon. Does anyone know if the movie is on dvd?
