The Trades

Fantastic premise for a comedy. We all have been in these types of scenarios at work and fantastic writing to turn it into a comedy series! The soundtrack was hilarious and fitting for the storyline, Cant wait to see how story evolves. Easily could have binge watched the entire first season. Alot of great canadian talent showcased in this series, which should have everyone excited to start watching and give it a shot. Fantastic to see Rob Wells in another comedy and going to have alot more stars coming out of this series... episode 3 cant come soon enough! Signed up for crave just for this show.

First, I actually try to find "home grown" shows. I LOVED Trailer park boys, up until it was taken over by Netflix and "Americanized". (Historically TBP only started Canadians, then they brought in American money, American actors..).

I actually enjoy Canadian shows, with Canadian actors.

This is a fantastic show and I hope it is picked up for additional seasons.

I did not like the "Susan" character on TPB, but they brought Susan Kent in for "The trades" and WOW, she's fantastic.

Not a "kid friendly" show, but MAN is it funny.

So far, "Sensitivity Training" is my fav episode. They have taken this absurdity we see in the workplace and made a mockery out of it on TV and did a great job doing so.

The producers did an amazing job bringing in a stellar set of actors/actresses to make this show what it is. You will be hard pressed to find a character you dont enjoy.

It is interesting seeing "Ricky" (Robb Wells) playing another character, which he does very well.

If you like Canadian comedy and don't mind "how people talk in the real world" give it a try...

No Political preaching, no attempting to brainwash you with propaganda, just some great comedy.

It is nice watching a bunch of Canadian actors working together to provide a great show.

THIS one, is for YOU!

I'd never seen "Trailer Park Boys" but there have been many comparisons to that I'm aware of. I went in with no expectations other than good fun! Having seen it, comparisons to The Conners / Roseanne come to mind for my part....

This is streaming on CRAVE and it does NOT disappoint. Ridiculously humorous situations, and loveable characters that have already grown on you by the second episode .... like whatever is in that hot "" (?!!??LOL)...don't want to give it away, so....keeping it light - ever worked in retail? Dealt with a Karen? A cray-cray boss? This one's for you!

I couldn't wait for the second episode and I'm looking forward (beyond) to the next.

The laughs are legitimate. Situations are unexpected but HIGH-larious as they unfold.

Enjoy - I'll be back.

So will you:)

Heads Up: the languagecontent can be appropriately rough - keep the audience in mind as it fits with these characters.

Just finished watching season two of The Trades on Crave and I'm seriously glad I stumbled on this gem. It's the kind of real-world comedy we don't get enough of-raw, hilarious, and full of heart. The cast absolutely delivers, with standout performances all around.

Tom Green's cameos? Legendary. And Robb Wells-what can I say? The man is a Canadian acting icon and proves it again here.

The show nails the vibe of everyday friendships and real-life situations with characters you can actually relate to and root for. If you're looking for something funny, honest, and uniquely Canadian, The Trades is 100% worth the watch.

This was a much anticipated show for me. I grew up surrounded by tradespeople. My mom was a carpenter in the 80's and my dad was an ironworker - they met on a bus in Calgary....these comedic stories are endless and I think this show is going to prove it. This just hits home for these tired-souls who grind away in these industries and professions just to keep the economy spinnin' round.

I crushed both episodes back to back and had to watch them again. Not only because I was laughing so hard, I wanted to take it all in.

I found myself pausing the show just to read the insults on the bathroom walls. Its raunchy, saucy and sweet, every character made me laugh. The writing and art department knocked this out of the park, the racoon is a nice touch.

I am very excited for the next episode this Friday and cant wait to see where this show progresses. It certainly is no Trailer Park boys - That show is hilarious in its own right, but this show has heart and it seems purposeful. I highly recommend giving it a view, worth the watch.
