Trailer Park Boys: Live in F**kin' Dublin

This had all the feel of a bunch of actors trying to squeeze a bit more money out of their fame. If they were attempting improv - it failed colossally. The Trailer Park movies are hilarious because these guys rehearse and follow a script.

This was nothing of the kind.

They may have tried to be funny but ended up just being stupid. ... and even their stupidity was mediocre!

If I had been in the live audience (and paid for a ticket) I would have been majorly upset! I doubt I'll ever waste time on a Trailer Park Boys show again.

Depending on how much live TPB tv you've seen already (specials, etc.), you should see this, or some of it, just to get a feel for what the live show is like, to add to your love of the TPB phenomenon. is the live stuff as good as the scripted/tight/series stuff? no. are there some amusing things? yes. are parts of it kind of boring/amateur'ish? yep.

but it's fun to see the audience shower our gang w/love when they first appear, and the filmed bookend stuff at the front and back of the special(s) is usually good, as is the case here. but the stage show is really just a chance for fans to come out and see their beloved TPBs in person. it's not gonna be rip-roaring, tight hilarity. it is an oppty to see the boys and get a few laughs

despite what some reviewers mention, i'm sure the audience enjoys themselves, as evidenced by the applause and laughter. some of these earlier specials are actually superior to the borderline-awful later specials, out of the park, etc.

there's no doubt the show is at its best in series form. but experience a little of the other stuff (the movies are generally quite good, as is the xmas special). it is what it is (and the fans usually approve)

I really enjoyed the show, made me laugh out loud. So much fun!

Yes, it did get very awkward at times during the live show. Like the other reviewer said, the scripted bits at the beginning and end were very funny, classic TBP. Had I been there at the show, like many hardcore fans that were in the audience I would have been on cloud nine just being able to see them live in character! I laughed when they show the close up of audience members who were in their 50's and 60's totally not amused, not laughing at all. "Oh look honey this might be fun to see," probably not even having seen a single episode or what the characters comedy is all about. Hell, there were even close ups of people in there 20's who looked like they weren't digging it all, though perhaps it was just do to the fact of poor editing and the use of those close ups were not accurate to the jokes portrayed at that moment (usually the case). Otherwise, why show the shots of the audience at all at that point. It's way too cliché.

In all, I liked the live show bit, they were going for the awkwardness obviously, cause the characters weren't prepared to do a live show, so be open to that. The crowd was being fun and receptive laugh wise, and it wasn't canned. I know there were many people in that audience who are in love with the show and had a great time. I'm not sure (obviously) but I am guessing this is the kind of live show they will be doing at the Pemberton music festival July 18 - 20th, along with many other shows at various festivals and other concerts in Canada this summer. I know with that kind of venue, they are going to kill it and make a lot of people very, very excited. Watching this still made me happy. Get drunk, smoke lots of dope, shut the f@&# up and enjoy it. That's what the boys would want you do. I love you guys, and please, please come to Lake Tahoe sometime!

Have been a long time TPB fan and this movie is not worth watching. The opening and closing scenes are good, the rest is a live stage show with the actors only partially in TPB character. They stand on stage, play drinking games with audience members and sing Rush songs. It is not funny nor fun to watch. It is a sad waste of time and an obvious attempt for the team to make a quick buck. TPB: Please stick to making episodic television, which is where Bubbles and Ricky excel.

And perhaps Conky needs to return to every episode, movie and stage set?

I highly recommend the series, especially the first four seasons. Season 7 is laborious to watch as they try to introduce a bunch of new clichéd characters. Most of the humor has been reduced to jokes about bodily functions.
