    Anyone here watch it. I think it's one of the funny programs i've seen in a long time.
    The best episode i've seen so far imo is the one where they plan to rob a shop and while they are robbing it, their friend who was drunk asleep in the car walks into the shop and they start to shoot each other with machine guns. Your thoughts

    For anyone who hasnt seen it and likes low brow humour its on weekdays on
    Paramount Comedy 2 at 10:00pm and repeated on Paramount Comedy at midnite.

    Some good news for all fans of Ricky, Julian, Bubbles and the rest of the denizens of Sunnyvale Trailer Park - looks like there is a feature film in the works.

    Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) is producing it...

    I wasn't a big fan.Not funny imo using a mentally handicapped guy to get laughs is just low


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,080 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    I aquired the first two seasons and watched about two episodes before I got bored...didnt thinkit was v.funny.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,454 ✭✭✭weemcd


    you need to watch about 4 episodes before it grows on you, the finale of the first season (robbing the grocery store is brilliant.)

    Bubbles is my idol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,479 ✭✭✭Stalfos


    I admit some episodes are not that great but overall it's a good show. It kinda reminds me of that "path to freedom" show which was brilliant imo.

    Theyre not using a mentally handicapped guy - its Bubbles, hes completely normal, he just has thick glasses.

    Im living in Canada at the moment and theyre showing the fifth series. Its absolutely fantastic.

    BTW great TPB link www.trailerparkboys.org

    One of the best tv shows I've seen in years.
    I'm going off to watch them again now...

    In the words of Ricky... "Lets go... smokes!" :D

    sorry i had to dig this thread back up.

    this is a hilarious show, very much like the office except different subject matter.
    i think it has to be watch in chronological order to get the best out of it.

    stalfos that episode is one of my favourites.

    the one that was on last night was brilliant too, where they set up the illegal gas station and ricky defends himself in court and the judge allows him to swear and smoke.

    Been watching this on Paramount every night and have to say I find it very funny.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Actually, anyone who's seen the 'Conky' episode would probably agree that Bubbles is not the full shilling.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,730 ✭✭✭✭simu

    But even if he's not, they're showing him with all his flaws having a failry good life - he has friends, he gets involved in things, he's his own person and so on.

    is the only place i can find them


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 28,128 ✭✭✭✭Mossy Monk


    bah. Region 1 disagrees with me. hopefully it gets popular enough that they will release it over here

    doubt it though :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,584 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    well there's a film coming out - according to their website www.trailerparkboys.com - in 2006 maybe if that gets released there might be a push for dvd sales

    Or "oh f*ck purple squirrals!!" Wow its been a while since I've quoted a tv show like that.

    I'm tellin I've been addicted to that show for months now. It's feckin brilliant!
    :D:D:D

    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0290988/ If ya look at this you can see there has been previous shows based on the same characters

    The only thing about the film that is a bit stetchy is the fact that it's tellin the story of how how they met or rather its the characters meeting and may not be the prequel to the series.

    Am I the only person who thinks this show is terrible? Even after smoking a few joints this show doesn't even get a smile out of me... However I still seem to watch the entire show. I can't explain that.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 35,724 Mod ✭✭✭✭pickarooney


    Buy some better weed?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,211 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    Buy some better weed?

    Good idea, next time...

    P.S. Easy to say for somebody living in the Netherlands

    I bought all five seasons on DVD from ebay, it's so funny it's unreal.
    I love this show so much, there's hundreds of brilliant quotes and some of the funniest gunfights I've ever seen. Excellent!

    Quote from Ricky. The last episode of season 5. I think it's pure gold. Some of the stuff he comes out with is classic!

    Thing with me is that, I am smart and I’m smelf- I’m self smarted, basically, by myself. Basically from nature and smoking drugs and doing different things I’ve self- s- like- self learned myself. And that’s the whole difference I guess, it’s that I don’t need the books or the schoolin type things. I just get everything on my own and, because of that, I’m alive right now. I mean, if I had read more books or tried to go on to college or different things like that, I’d be dead right now. Because people say books and college are for to be to make you smarter but they could also be for to be to get you dead, which is what coulda happened to me, my brain doesn’t use enough oxygen cause I don’t have the whole thing filled with different stuff and if it was full it’s only part full, and that’s why I’m alive right now. Guards are going ‘Here, read this book. Try to get smarter.’ And I’m like, ‘alright I’ll pretend to read it’, but I’m not gonna really read it cause then my brain would be more full and if I have another heart attack I’m gonna die.
