Trailer Park Boys: Out of the Park

Nothing acutally to do with the orginal TPB, but just watching the guys over in Europe fu*king everything up, I LIKE IT

I enjoyed watching seasons 1 & 2. Not nearly as good as the original, but what can be? It is near impossible to bring back the magic after the original is over (e.g., Arrested Development, Will & Grace, Netflix TPB, etc.)

I won't say that I hate this series, as I found it amusing, especially season 2. However, the one thing that kills this for me is the guy from SwearNet that is in charge of giving The Boys their tasks. Tom Mayhue? Not sure of his name. However, he is such a rank amateur, and such an a**hole, that I find myself having to fast forward through any parts that he is in. And this is not just because he is an a**hole to the boys. He's just the type of guy that has a most punchable face. I cannot, for the life of me, understand why The Boys have not beaten him to a bloody pulp. I would seriously rather have Cyrus giving them their tasks.

The difference between a good season of TPB and a great one can be illustrated by missed opportunities. The episode with the 200mph task should have focused on time travel, period. A full episode devoted to the boys thinking they went back i time could have been an all time classic, but instead, it's just a momentary gag. Also, the hangover scene was only a gag but it should have been an epic finale to the season. What happened last night? It was long forgot a couple minutes in. The guest stars absolutely elevate, but aren't always hitting the mark. The basketball player for instance just kind of shows up and stands around for a few. Cool and all, but it could have been more.

Overall though, plenty of good. Season 2 is better than Season 1. It's not among the best of TPB, but it's certainly an addition to the catalogue i'm glad to have.

I love these but after watching a frustrating and disappointing Europe series, I had high hopes for this US series but it was unbearable with Bubbles ranting the whole time. This show gravely went out of balance to Bubbles it should have been his own show and Julian and Ricky were just sidekicks.

The original series was lowbrow comedy gold and gave birth to some great original characters, but this is something different. You have to get past Tom Mayhue and he is not an actor... The version of himself that he plays on this show is reprehensible and I kept hoping Ricky and Julian would "dispose of him," the way they disposed of him the way they disposed of Conky, but unfortunately he's in it for the longhaul. He is the WORST part of the show and if I had quit watching, it would have been because of this vile little man. When he's not on camera it's still a funny show. No, they did not spend 5 minutes throwing up because they didn't "like canned fish."Surströmming is basically rotten fish in a can that tastes like moldy blue cheese, but the Swedes seem to enjoy it. Most people would puke at the smell of that stuff, so the person equating it to regular old canned fish should probably get out of the park themselves.
