I've never watched the show and I'm more Canadian (English spelling) than Bubbles (the dude in the middle). I do admire the show however. The recently released film did really well in Canada http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0425601/

The film was produced by Canadian director/producer/writer Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters, Meatballs, Stripes, Howard Stern's Private Parts etc...). I may watch the film at some point. The TV show is HUGE in Canada. No home-grown comedy has been this big since SCTV and to a lesser extend Kids In The Hall.

I'll think you'll find it funny. I do laugh at scenes and situations when I pass by while surfing the channels.

I don't think it's all that funny, but I have immense respect for the show.  Just not my cup of tea.

Now, give me Kenny vs. Spenny - that's the best Canadian show in years.

my buddy got a burnt dvd of four shows we couldn't stop watching it. i want to buy all the seasons on dvd for myself, but they're fuckin' expensive.  

i never heard "pullin' your goalie" as a term of masturbation before.
j-rocks rap concert funny as hell.

That term is part of the cannon of Canadian euphemisms.

Also, I don't share red's love for Kenny Vs Spenny.

Oh snap!  I completely forgot about this show.  Does anyone know what channel its on in the US?  I remember seeing it a year or two ago, late at night but I can't remember where.  The dude on the left was given the reigns on the trailer park for a weekend or something and he had some crazy ass party.  Awesome show

If you get BBC America, thats the one. I had to order all the DVD's from amazon.com.

I don't know if its true, but I believe I read it somewhere. I don't get BBC America or BBC Canada for that matter.
