This is the least funny "comedy" ever produced
Holy frick how does anyone find this funny

It's all in the subtlety. It doesn't ring with everyone but basically you notice little quirks and things the characters have when they interact with each other and it's satisfying to see those things happen.
Just a random example: Bubble's really hates the fact that randy doesn't wear a shirt. This is never spoken by anybody, not bubbles himself or anybody else. It's never explicitly stated, but once ever few episodes he throws in a jab at "idiots with no frickin' shirts on going camping!" and it's just funny.
Don't think about the plot or story at all because it's usually nothing really, just observe the characters and take note of how they talk and what annoys them and you'll laugh.
The show isn't for everyone, if you don't like it you don't like it.
This. It's like a wildlife documentary. And the wildlife is Nova Scotian trailer trash.
My favorite running thing is Julien's drink. The later Netflix seasons aren't great, but it had moments. Particularly Julien climbing out of a car crash with his full drink, and him having his drink taken away but his arm is still stuck like that.
It's a canadian show, have you see half of the programming they have. Shit like Letterkenny is considered a beloved comedy.
Letterkenny at least has jokes and some good one liners. I got sick of Letterkenny after one season but can't watch trailer park boys
Letterkenny is shit and the only people I’ve ever known who like it are Americans and city-dwelling liberal homosexuals. Am Canadian btw.
Corner Gas is hot stuff.
So is the Red Green Show
Beloved and acclaimed Canadian actress Sarah Gadon appears as the reoccurring character Gae in the comedic series Letterkenny. She is quite delightful in it.
gadon autist bro, where you been?
Really, you should just commit to watching one whole season because they all have the same general premise. The season starts with them coming out of prison and ends with them going back in. Try season 2 or 3 idk. You are missing out on pure comedy kino, though.
>Trailer Park Boys has consistent story that's present during each season
>TPB has consistent bits that continue through the entire series run
>TPB has iffy writing at some points, stuff that's just cut and never spoken of, and issues with requiring either enjoyment of stupid humor or the misfortune of having experiences living around people like the characters
>Letterkenny has some of the best jokes/one-liners/banter written without feeling too overdone
>Letterkenny has little to no overarching plot per season, adopts a Seinfeld-esque approach to making each episode somewhat of an extended bit with some story mixed in
>Letterkenny has mild writing that Shoresy did better and has more relatable country/rural characters that most people can associate with
Both of these shows are decent.
Letterkenny is hackneyed reddit trash for morons
I don't get the appeal of Letterkenny, I never found it to be funny.
The hockey team from S2 was their best bit and they replaced them in S3 with two gay gym dudes doing the same schitck because it was cheaper than paying 5 actors.
A crossover could never work, because it would end with either Wayne whooping Cyrus's ass, Wayne whooping Jim+Randy's asses, or Wayne whooping the TPB's asses(except Bubbles, because Wayne respects good boys until Daryl whoops his ass for allegedly mocking his inability to pronounce certain words). Either way, Wayne is whooping someone's ass in slow motion to some Drake ripoff. This is why Jared Keeso is not allowed to spearhead any media other than his own.
I dunno man it’s just a comfy show that makes me chuckle
How about you lick the shit out of the crack of my ass?
You fricking want one
this is the only show that depicts extroverted poorcucks in an accurate way
Frick off Cyrus!
Oh, if ain't the big tough guy JOO-LEANNE and his friend, the Hubble Bubble Telescope. Frick off, I got work to do.
I think it helps if you've been to canada once to understand
i find the first 7? seasons hilarious for most of it besides one bad episode every season but the format or connected storylines makes it very unrewatchable for me, i could do Always Sunny, Curb, Seinfeld, Frasier, all day but I have to watch TPB like once every 2 or 3 years
I watched the ones where TPB go to Europe and overseas before S1 to 7 and they were pretty funny
the Europe spinoff season is great
Ricky reacting to people speaking other languages is hilarious
Vibes
What’s it like living as a npc without a soul, intelligence or sense of humour?
Hey the schizos back. Why haven't you ever proved any of your heinous claims?
It's dumb humor. It's not supposed to have structured jokes. The characters are the jokes. It's written better than most hollywood sitcoms, and that's saying something because they had almost no experience with film when they started the show.
I've watched s1-8 like 3 times and the first few movies.
After the revival I saw up to the season with Snoop dogg in it but it felt soulless.
Are the newer seasons/eurotrip any good?
The drunk and on drugs happy funtime hour was so bad i couldn't finish it.
You're well on your way
There are no structured jokes so it doesn't appeal to most people. It's funny the same way hanging out with your stupid friends in real life is funny. You don't laugh because they told you a joke, you laught because they did or said something stupid.
Julian crawling out of a rolled over car still holding his rum and coke cracked me up more than any structured joke.
As a fairly new fan it takes its time in S1 but it gets funny fast
For me? It's Ricky throwing shit around, making a lot of noise while doing so. Don't know why it cracks me up so much. The episode he "confiscates" J-Rock's washing machine is probably my favorite just for that scene alone.
2 more funny ones is ricky borrowing bubbles go kart and bubbles and ray get into an argument over jump-starting rays car
A car is no place for a kitty to live
I can't be the only one who thinks this looks like a renaissance painting
It really it
You know its a masterpiece when you see the Christmas episode
The premise of the show had never existed before on television. This was the height and waning years of the outbreak of reality tv. Cops, American Idol, Survivor, Fear Factor, Real World, The Osbourne's; these were all the rage. "Unscripted" television gonzo television shows where a camera crew was inserted into day to day lives or intense scenarios and we watched it play out in front of our eyes. A show without writers, in a sense.
This show lampooned that time of tv by turning it on its head by making it 'COPS from the criminals perspective.' It was stylized to be around the notion of following criminals around with a camera crew instead of officers and its setting was the authentic trailer park slums of Nova Scotia. Think of it more like a cartoon and the characters are just that, CHAR-ACT-ERS, y'know? Its also a lot in the fine details you pick up on from multiple viewings of the show once, the small subtleties of the characters and universe (Julian not spilling a drink after a car roll over, the Rickyism's, cats everywhere) The improvisational talent and chemistry of the lead characters, the emotional anchoring of the show with the melodramatic moments, and how you aren't even 10 minutes in before something insane is happening on screen like a fight or gunshots before cutting to the juxtaposing tranquil lullaby themesong, Seasons 1-7 are the shows peak when it was new and fresh. The Clattenburg seasons are the essence of what made the show a hit in the first place.
Thanks chatGPT!
Why there are no french speakers if they're canadian
Ricky's last name is LaFleur, Cyrus most definitely is French Canadian, J-Roc talks black, Bubbles grunts; the show is very multilingual.
>Holy frick how does anyone find this funny
The low as frick stakes in all of their plots is what makes it funny to me. Its always like a few thousand dollars never anything massive. Its the lowest pettiest stupidest crime that they still somehow manage to frick up.
another major component of the humor is the now almost lost traditional Canadian sense of good-natured camaraderie that pervades among all the chaos
like earnestly pausing a gunfight because someone got shot
>Its always like a few thousand dollars never anything massive
Lol, love how they refer to "theft over a thousand" like it's the heaviest shit ever
>Ricky, you've got kids stealing grills for you, that's way worse than theft over a thousand!
>The low as frick stakes in all of their plots is what makes it funny to me
This is a huge part of it and one reason the netflix seasons don't work as well.
Bubbles is truly the only unfunny character in the entire show
He's unbearable and only gets worse as the show goes
You misspelled Sara
It's Canadian stoner trash comedy. You have to be stoned to find it funny. Otherwise it's just Canadian trash.
I think it's hilarious but I grew up in Nova Scotia so maybe it's just because it's relatable
Blows my mind that some idiot needs people to explain why this show is funny. Are you fricking soulless robot or what?
Name 2 funny shows OP
its way more funny than friends.
Maybe you should get some better taste
tfw when the bo bandy hits
