Anyone watch the new season yet? I think this show has run its course. Was fun while it lasted.

I actually thought that a couple episodes into season 2.

Yeah. After about season 3 I’d had enough.

+1.

Could not get through season 3. Shame because the first was hilarious.

6 seasons, same running jokes. Still love it. Most of their deep dives into meaningless topics are hilarious to me. Ants on Jetskis? Ipad on top of a urinal? Brilliant stuff.

Everyone I talk to agrees: we like this show, and don't at the same time.

Apart from the meth heads I really enjoyed season 1, but have been lukewarm since. The Shoresy (?) stuff with the hockey players in season 2 (?) was pretty funny, though.

I only watch it when I hike out to camp in the mountains. I dig my phone out and make sure I’m up to date on the latest Letterkenny episode. Perfect way to spend time in the great outdoors.

I actually liked this season as it felt more honest back to the earlier seasons. I had lost some interest in season 5. So I was pleasantly surprised

The skids are what keeps me from loving this show, they're so annoying and get so much screentime

First two seasons were fantastic, season 3 was so meh that I haven't watched anything beyond it yet. I've heard it picks back up again but can't be bothered yet

calumniate · 01-05-2019, 06:41 PM

It's funny but the quick cut editing is out of control. Feels like I'm watching a bad YouTube video review

I'm currently binging the show and I agree there's a love/meh thing going on. I can get through about 2 shows at a time, maybe 3 then have to call it. Just finished Season 4. So far, Season's 1 and 2 have been the best. The St. Patties Day and Halloween specials were pretty decent.

Cool that Jim Playfair's son is in it. His character is pretty hilarious.

I really enjoyed the first two seasons but like others have said I kind of lost interest in the 3rd season. I think shows like this have a shelf life as what made it initially fresh and funny stretches thin over time. That said it doesn't take away from the initial creativity and Canadian uniqueness of this show.

I know a lot of people love this show, but I could never really get into it. Never found it funny other then a couple of scenes, and those are few and far in between. Some of the writing is good. But I lasted up until S5 and am glad I moved on from it.

Overrated show IMO.

Binged watched all seasons a few weeks ago. Loved it. Brought back a lot of memories growing up in small town Northern Alberta in the 80's. Just the stupid #### we'd say and talk about. My wife, who grew up in Calgary, never really got it. A couple of jokes she'd smirk, but that's about it. Usually it was her looking at me with at wtf look on her face as I was busting a gut.
