I watched the final episode of the new season and it really seems as though the series is done. The way they wrapped things up seems to indicate that there will be no more seasons although I read a rumour online that Netflix has renewed for season 11.

It did seem like a bit of an odd ending.

Spoiler!


I'd almost rather they treat it like their movies, bigger jobs with more production values.

The biggest surprise was regarding Ricky's father. That was a weird twist.

Default Mike Smith (Bubbles) Arrested for Domestic Battery in California

http://www.coveragemail.com/entertai...in-california/

Quote:
The 43-year-old actor was taken into custody after a verbal altercation with a woman allegedly turned violent.

The Canadian actor – whose show’s tenth season was released on Netflix just days earlier – was detained by Hollywood Police at 1.15am after witnesses reported a man and woman fighting in a bathroom at the Roosevelt Hotel.

The actor was charged with misdemeanor domestic battery but released just after 5am Friday morning on $20,000 bail, the Dailymail.com has confirmed.

Witnesses told TMZ that the Trailer Park Boys star and the woman were arguing in the restrooms near the hotel’s iconic pool and bar reportedly over who the actor was texting.

Witnesses claim they then heard the woman yell, ‘You’re chocking me’, and when they ran to help they say Mike pinning the woman against the bathroom wall.

That was easily the weakest season, the fighting between characters just dragged on far too long and for no real purpose. And the whole Barb crew was just cringeworthy bad

I thought it started out great but really got weaker as it went on.

She apparently quit (or had made it known that she was planning on quitting) before the incident with Bubbles occurred.

Yeah that was going to be her last season anyway. My guess is she's just using that incident to try and look good

The show ran its course anyway. They ran out of ideas a few seasons ago and it's been just one upmanship for a while. To expand they are trying to be less Canadian and independent, which was 50% of the appeal.

Season 9 was the beginning of the end with Leslie Dancer and Donna, at that point they were just grasping for anything new.

Really shows that the original production team and director are gone.
Barrie Dunn and Mike Clattenburg really kept the shows "Canadianness" alive, which is what it's lacking now imo.

And I think the show agrees,

Charges against Mike Smith dropped due to lack of evidence

I dont think anyone mentioned it here, but J-Roc also is gone now. I think it may be time to retire the show.

I hope they stop, the last season was so awkward.

Stealing money to start a grow op, maybe or maybe not getting that grow op sold then going to jail can only be told so many ways. The roots are Ricky and Julian committing crimes so they can sell drugs so they can retire, it started wearing thin and became 3 buddies drinking a few years ago. Was fun while it lasted, please stop now.

Yeah they moved on from some of the old favorites thinking if they evolved the show it could stay popular? Like Ricky dumping on Corey asking for smokes, getting pepperoni and jal-ap-eno chips and his limited speech.

I still like the show, but hate that they really watered down each character down into a bunch of one trick ponies.

For example, Lahey used to be a trailer park supervisor that took his job way too seriously. Reminded me of a guy on my Condo Board a few years ago, and I loved it. A few years ago literally all he brings is being a hilarious drunk, which I still enjoy, but he's almost more a prop than a character at this point.

I thought the newest season was pretty bad. Season 9 was pretty good though, so I'd like to see at least one more season before writing the show off.

And J-Roc has kind of pissed me off since the show came back. They kept trying to force the side plot with his kid and I just didn't care about it at all.

What I don't get is that J-Roc got famous at the end of one of the movies. He hit it big, had a big concert and sold his entire back catalogue. He should have been a millionaire but he went back to living with his mom still? Nearly his entire plotline revolved around his rapping. He hit it big rapping and then it stops and his character arc pretty much ended.

This was supposed to be him getting famous



J-roc definitely had the most inconsistent storyline. In love with Sarah... random kid... what happened to T's kid? Isn't J-rocs kid just T's kid? They both had pregnant white women with them and then all of a sudden J-rocs kid is black and 13 years old?

Really? He's one of my favourites. That wedding rap in the last episode almost had me in tears.
