First let me say that I can understand that some humor doesn't always translate well from country to country like English or Latin American humor for example. I am a huge fan of Kids in the Hall which is of course from Canada and believe me, I really REALLY wanted to like this show. I like the characters, I think they are funny, but like someone said earlier, this show is like watching a bad bad high school play or porno acting. It's almost like all the dialogue is improvised (badly) and the pace of the show is very lagging and I found myself desperately waiting for a moment of redemption for this series that it would finally get--somewhere. This show could learn a few things from hillarious shows that dabble in this kind of mokumentary style storyline like Reno 911 or Mr. Show I think.

funniest and best fucking show ever. unlike almost every other tv show or movie the characters in TPB speak like people actually would. full of grammatical errors, slang, and swearing. the fuckin idiots giving it 1 star are expecting this show to be something its not, and im glad its not..

Well written and innovative, particularly in its early seasons. Lots here to offend everybody though, which probably accounts for the dichotomy of opinions reflected below.

I have honestly tried, but never made it through an entire episode.
Automatt 03/07/2008
This is just about the funniest show on television.

Canadian or not Canadian this is a great show. Smart full of dope, guns & lots of fun. What's more to ask?
GenghisTheHun 02/27/2007
Sending this across the border from the frozen north is an ACT OF WAR! We have enough bad t.v. in the USA and don't need Canada's offal on our airwaves.

Canada's best contribution to society.

The show is a 10 out of 10. If you haven't seen it yet you should! If you're a fan of low brow comedy this is your show! http://www.tpbusa.com

this show was awsome! you either like it a lot or you just don't get it........The Brilliance!
bobbitchin 12/08/2006
I loved almost every episode since season 1.. one thing I miss though in the new season is the voice of Danny in the background.. If you listen closely in the background during any gun fights or scuffles in the park, you will hear Danny yelling from his trailer... "Enough with the FU*#ing guns!!" Every single time I hear this guy yelling in the background, I break out in laughter.. Trailer Park Boys are simply awesome.. I feel sorry for all the people that just dont "get it" You have obviously lived a sheltered life.. it's why you dont get the jokes or Irony. It doesn't take rocket appliences to get this stuff ;-}
jasonsomers 10/13/2006
i'm not even a fan of the show, in fact i've hated it every time i've watched it briefly. this movie made me want to watch more. g'job eh!!!

The ratings say it all... you either give it 5 stars, or you give it on. Some people get it, other are left wiping the drool from their chin, waiting for the next feeding of pureed prunes (those who gave it a single star). The drooling few need to refuckulate their carbonatores, head to Juniper, buy some space weed, and get with the program!
bubbles420 05/07/2006
the greatest show ever made PERIOD
sdgfsdg 02/28/2006
Some people totally miss the point of this show...Saying shit like "it should be called trailer TRASH boys"...oh no shit we thought it was supposed to be a bunch of eloquent british men sitting around sipping tea. Of course it's trashy, thats the whole fuckin point. Anyone who dislikes this show is a fuckin uptight loser who is taking it too seriously... 5 fukin stars like nothing else on tv.
KristenNCD1980 12/06/2005
Trailer Park Boys I must say is one of my all time favorite shows. I wish that the United States would not have cancelled that program. Now the only way my husband and I can enjoy it is by downloading it off of the internet.
jakester3472 11/30/2005
Those poor people who obviously have made their mind up about the show obviously get their jollies hanging around funeral parlors. LIGHTEN UP! The humor in this show is a lot more realistic than your standard sitcom.... BY FAR!

NoGoodPig 11/22/2005
TPB is low brow, but clever and funny as hell. It's worth watching just for the Rickyisms. Why hasn't HBO or Showtime picked up this great Canadian show? I sure as hell wouldn't want to see a Comedy Central censored version. Come on HBO, I send you money every month!
_Conky_ 11/22/2005
How could anyone not like this show its so funny like if u dont like this show ur either A) someone who as no sense of humour and likes to kill puppies and eat them or B)a dumbass religous right nut. Thats my opinion on people that dont like this funny show
samskwanch 11/19/2005
Trailer Park Boys are real DOPE.... Like all comedy it is an exaggeration of real life. But you can t help liking and rooting for the central characters (my particular favourite is Bubbles the greatest philosopher in the Nova Scotia area.) The fly on the wall documentary style leads to an endearing expose of the characters flaws and dreams. Whether this leads to Julians dream of a lifetimes supply of Bacardi or Ricky s attempts at passing his Grade 10 exams.Also I do hope thatone day Bubbles gets a Kitty farm. Finally it seems to me that this is much better than the commitee scripted stuff that is all the rge in Britain and America.
Joebananas 11/18/2005
this is a top class show,the funniest stuff i have seen for ages,anyone who doesnt like this obviously needs to put an ad in there local paper saying 'LOST,ONE SENSE OF HUMOR,IF FOUND PLEASE RETURN TO ME ASAP SO I CAN ENJOY WATCHING TRAILER PARK BOYS'
azzinengland 10/13/2005
the best show i have ever watched it needs too get bigger in england tho
s_tamlin 09/15/2005
AWESOME! I don't really like US comedies as a general rule so I was suprised to see that I enjoyed TPB so much; but then I realise why - it's Canadian! Oh Canada....
sfalconer 09/02/2005
Alright I had a bad feeling about this before I even saw one episode. Well this poor excuse for a Comedy is now on BBC America and as I said my expectations were low and I was still disappointed. Its more like a docu-drama then any thing else. The only character I thought was remotely funny was bubble(s), I think that's what the Character's name was, he had lent a cat to Ricky and he wanted it back. The cat was being use to protect Ricky's pot plants from squirrels. Other then that, not funny at all. This truely is terrible and some one needs to tell me where the humor is in this mess. Canada you did a lot better with Super Dave.
Jimmithy 09/01/2005
Right on, what a great show ... about time, CANADA RULZ
Xceed 08/18/2005
Its so great i cant believe its canadian, this show is by far the best canadian show ever, i can watch the episodes ove and over n over with out getting tired of them, genious!
pigpen 08/11/2005
A Canadian classic. There is nothing else on TV like it. A show that so openly embraces pot and alcohol could not be made in the US. Check out the Christmas special. It is sure to become a cult classic.
hancollin 08/08/2005
best show ever, the characters are so great and the plots are so random it makes me wonder where these ideas come from, i mean a hash driveway?,in the words of ricky pure geenis!
jakker 07/27/2005
The sad few people who dis this show need a sense of irony injection.......it's pure genius
sab1690 07/07/2005
this is the best show in the world.i Have seen all 5 series.People who say it rubbish are idiots they are probable snobs who have no sense of humour.lightin up it an exellent comedy and it shows . Thank God there making a movie of it that will be the icing on the cake
JonTheMan 06/25/2005
I must confess to having become somewhat hooked on this show. Yeah, the content may seem pretty sordid at first glance, but the way the boys stick together through thick and thin is actually rather touching (in a bizarre way). Despite the characters being pretty exaggerated in some places, the whole thing feels eerily realistic because of the documentary style in which it is filmed. This realism makes every episode completely unpredictable as, just like in reality, the narrative is completely random and erratic. Who could tell Ricky's plan to grow dope would go horribly awry because his inept wiring caused Bubbles' shed to burn down? What about when Julian's scheme to hide his bootlegged vodka in a hastily built paddling pool was foiled by Randy throwing Ricky into it? The show's atmosphere of eerie realism also impacts on how the viewer relates to the show. You don't feel boxed into guffawing along with the canned laughter strictly after each punchline, you laugh whenever you want. It's almost like, as another reviewer noted, you actually know these people and are laughing at their weird and wonderful ways. That's what makes Trailer Park Boys a breath of fresh air in the comedy world.

I came across this show while channel surfing on the BBC America channel. I think this show is great! Very entertaining! I like the episode when Julian falls in love with that door to door bible chick. Then finds out she is a stripper! This show is not award winning material, but i am glad it is on DVD. I did not think it was the type of show to be on DVD's. Brings me hope!
Stiffers 05/10/2005
One of the best shows on TV! Absolutely hilarious. And the fact that it's Canadian makes it even better. Bubbles...oh, God, best character ever. After Homer Simpson. Ricky's awesome, too. The scene where Julian comes out of his trailer wrapped in a huge fur blanket and Ricky and Bubbles start beating on him with baseball bats just kills me.

Good, but tedious at times
kootenaymom 01/18/2005

Absolute rubbish.............

the title says it all. TRAILER...trash!
jadedragn 10/14/2004
Trailer Park Boys will always make me laugh without doubt.
moxy 09/30/2004
Epic! Subtle. Low Budg. It takes some warming up... But even at the start it sucks you in. You feel a bit guilty -- like you are watching a car wreck -- only its funny. Then funnier. Then you know the characters and you can't get enough. Thank God my Canadian friend sent me the 1st two seasons dvd. Now its on to the third. I can understand that, with what they are doing, either you will love this show or hate it.
solid-bebe 09/18/2004
So absolutely stupid.. it's brilliant..

To Jed1000: Overweight middle-aged men? Speaking English as a second language? What show were you watching? Nobody (except Lahey) is out of their 20s in the show and their English (including profanities) is fine.
