re: Letterkenny

There’s two things I don’t like about you, and it’s your face.

I rarely credit this board for bringing something great to my attention...but this time it was a goldmine. This show is freaking hilarious and yes, very quotable. Props to the OP and thanks.

I have a friend from Calgary in the NHL...when I rip a few of these off to him I think he will like it.

The delivery is in turns stunted, rapid fire, and exaggerated, but the dialect is very real.

I’ve never been around any level of hockey players so really am interested if there’s some truth in the way the present then in the show. Is that dialect real and just over exaggerated? Report back please

You know, it reminds me of friends of some of my friends who went to East coast schools. They were lacrosse players. We called them LAX bros.

Also in high school in Louisiana I feel like there were analogues to the different groups in the show. The "hicks" were the good ole boys, and the "degens" were the trashy Eminem looking dudes who would show up to parties and try to start fights. The "skids" were the goth kids.

All five seasons available on Hulu starting Dec 27, 2018 boys!

Guy I work with every morning;

“Wrenchruh, How are ya know?”
“Goodenyou?”
“Oooh, not so bad”

Takes the edge off a little bit.

FYI season 3-6 releases in an hour and a half.




Aka it’s out now for all you fricks seeing this tomorrow morning

From reading it it sounds like it's a different version of Trailer Park Boys. Is that a good comparison?

Not really in my opinion. Letterkenny has a very specific format to its scenes that center around lots of extremely quick wordplay. I can’t think of anything that is quite like it. Just watch it. If it’s not for you, you’ll know relatively quickly.
