Letterkenny

For those who don't understand or like the show. Figureitout.

This show is really something. The mixture of brutal simplicity with some top notch tongue-in-cheek writing really sets this show apart from virtually every comedy I've seen in the last few years. The jokes are crass yet eloquent, the situations absurd yet low key.

The style is simple, yet laced with subtle wit. The hybrid of dry British comedy with a loud mouthed American twist is a rare beauty to behold.

A special recognition should definitely also go to the actors of the show. The entire cast seem to be deeply involved in the show and really give it their all with their characters, playing them with equal share satire and honesty. It makes the show all the better for having characters that are genuinely lovable and relatable.

I sincerely hope this show gets another season and world wide acclaim because it is rare to find something so fresh and original nowadays.

10/10

Yer writin a review on IMDB tha other day....

So, ya found a show with quick wit, quick words and even quicker punches. All in glorious slo-mo. Now I know whatcha might be thinking. How coulda buncha Maple junkie, schneef snortin, beer chuggin, ne'er-do-wells with nothin but time on their hands have the testicular fortitude to throw handfuls of hilarious hypothetical haymakers heartily hitting at our hearts and heads? Well, if you'll pump the brakes, and back 'er off about 10-20 there Squirrely Dan, I'd be glad to increase your brain knowings, before you get all hellbent for a Donny Brook.

As sure as God wears sandals I've only two words for this clearly Canadian conscription of classic conundrums converging conveniently in concise conversational colloquialisms.......

Hard yes.

Asa small town Ontarian, this rang so true it made me wonder if it would translate outside of my world of inside jokes - i even guessed the town it was based on (Listowel) just by watching the season.

dialog is Tarantino sharp and fast, the catch phrases fly by almost too fast to catch ( eyes on your own work there super chief) and if this series was on a VHS tape, I would wear it out.

If this show does not garner awards for comedic writing, i will be shocked - simply the best thing i have seen in some time

I signed up to the Canadian crave TV service solely for this offering and it is well worth it - i am surprised by the lack of buzz about this show in the media to be honest. I do not know if it is because this is not based on a reserve, or an urban coffee shop, or if the humor simply goes over most critic's heads

A few years ago, the humor of Napoleon Dynamite and the talking speed of Gilmore Girls hung out and played Cards Against Humanity together.

They conceived a baby and gave birth to Letterkenny.
