Definitely a must watch show(although my wife prefers that I record it and 'must watch' it when she's not around).

cheers

Definitely the funniest show around. Just like Corner Gas, but moreso.

Anyone need torrents for this show? I can get em.

-A- I believe this is on DVD, but I can't find them at the local Blockbuster or Hollywood Video. Maybe you have to order from the Net? :)

This is one reason why I have satellite service in my Canadian home :D

The BBC America version wasn't as good because of all of the censorship.
It was really hard to watch compared to what is shown on Showcase in Canada.
I read a while back that BBC America isn't showing it anymore due to low ratings.

But they are making a Trailer Park Boys movies with director Ivan Reitman which should be in theatres next summer.

You can order the DVDs through the Showcase.ca site or on Amazon. So far they haven't been released in the states. I have the first 3 seasons on DVD.

I hope this show is given a chance in the states without being censored because I think it is one of the funniest mindless comedies out there :)
Maybe with the kind of humor, this show would make it better in the UK...

So, is there going to be a season 6?

And, the first 3 seasons are on DVD, but not 4 or 5?

I heard that BBC America stopped showing it due to the FCC crackdowns. This probably means no other station will pick up the show either.

I am able to find seasons 4 and 5 through other means.

Edit: Oh, also how do I order the T-Shirts? They can't send them to Cali for some reason.
