Rewatching Trailer Park Boys and I've just realised I've been jacking Bubbles' swagger with these Western shirts the last few years...

[Mizmazzle]

Bookie on HBO is pretty great!

@T4920 i just started watching Trailer Park Boys first the first time a few months back. its solid gold. I find Mr. Lehey's creative prose using 'shit' hilarious.

“Guys it’s me, from now on I’m the scorpion” lol. TPB is freaking hilarious, one my favs for sure. Seasons 1-7 the best, some of the Netflix ones good too but the og Canadian ones fire. Espically any scene with Ray… side note def check out letterkenny and then shorsey, some more Canadian comedy highly recommend.

@Inorganic the shit winds are blowing Rand...

I was so sad when John Dunsworth died, probably my favourite character in comedy show ever!

But, to quote a wise man;

'Way she goes...'

I've shared this picture here before, but it was one of the funniest nights of my life..

Ten years ago now, I almost got beat up on numerous occasions for calling people Cocksuckers... Got a little bit too inside Bubbles' head!

Pretty cool. Stereotype (probably?) Canadians dumbasses trying to do the big (maple syrup) heist. But, Margo Martindale charming as ever.
And the music rocks!

@endo You beat me to it. Three episodes in and really loving it. Kind of like if Fargo was funny. Can’t help but think it would be popular based on the eclectic tastes in this thread.

[Jett129]

Finished up The Sticky tonight. Just absolutely fucking great.

[seawolf]

@Jett129 it’s on my list!

[Inorganic]

@T4920 you win. This is amazing!!! Cocksucker!

[Giles]

I'm often late to the party.

But I fucking loved Ted Lasso and Slow Horses......

[seawolf]

@Giles Being late to the party just means you have more to watch all at once. I'm not sure I've even heard of anyone not liking Ted Lasso. Is that even possible? WHISTLE!

I'm in the middle of watching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine for the first time, and it's starting to get really good. Lots of character development and some good episodes here and there leading up to the 4th season, but it's starting to get really good now and I've heard it keeps getting better.

Related: Has anyone seen the most recent Start Trek series Strange New Worlds?

And not Star Trek at all, but Seth Mcfarlane's the Orville has no business being as good as it is. Hightly recommended.

[Steve]

@seawolf I've watched all of Star Trek Strange New Worlds - love it, it really feels a lot like the original series (1960's) - in that every episode is its own story, and not a overly complicated arc that you find on a lot of series nowadays. Defo worth watching.

I watched the first few eps and liked it a lot but didn’t persist. I think I was just a bit overloaded on ST from Discovery which hit a little boring for me. Picard on the other hand. 🤌

[seawolf]

@Steve I totally agree. It feels like the original series, but with modern storytelling and special effects. It's great all around.

@Matt Give it another go. You won't be sorry. It's as good, if not better than Picard, in my opinion. Loved Picard as well.

I still need to go back to the second season of Picard, for nostalgia reasons. But I struggled with the first two or so eps.

Still feel that I need to finish the journey.

[seawolf]

@Nick It's solid. Definitely worth a watch.

We have been watching Expedition Unknown. My wife and somewhat surprisingly my daughter enjoy it. It’s about an Explorer’s Club member who digs into different historical events and goes treasure hunting. So, he’ll go to Cambodia looking for Khmer cultural artifacts or dive a shipwreck to recover coins or trek through the jungle looking for El Dorado…

Kind of like a real life Indiana Jones thing. Admittedly sensationalized but still educational.
