    so i have been a huge fan of tpb for a long time. if you stumbled into this thread go check them out they are on netflix and funny as hell. i want to kind of discuss the new stuff, season 8 and dont legalize it mostly, and get everyones opinions.

    what is so different about season 8 and the 3rd movie?? in case you dont know, up until this point, the series was run by mike clattenburg (the main guy) and barrie dunn (ray), among others. awhile after season 7, robb wells, john paul trembly and mike smith (ricky, julian and bubbles) formed their own studio (swearnet) and bought out the rights to the series (which is why ray disappears and fakes his own death in dont legalize it). they then went out on a live tour, made a swearnet movie, made a new tpb movie and made seasons 8 and 9. 9 has not been released as of yet. the movie and season 8 were put on netflix.

    so why am i doing this now? due to where i live, i have really horrible internet service. i use satellite internet, which caps my data very very low and if i go over they bump me down to dialup speeds. all this is horrible because i know that someone about a quarter mile away has very very high speed fiber optic net. that is neither here nor there. once i moved here i had to cancel my netflix subscription and was only able to see the new stuff once it came out on dvd (and had to pay to have it shipped from canada).

    so following are my opnions. please feel free to give your own and lets have a badass trailer park boys thread. decent.

    dont legalize it: in my opnion, the movies are not nearly as good as the series. i feel as though they try to pander to a wider audience and it really ruins them. i hate to say it but i think dont legalize it was crap. i feel like they just rushed to get the movie done and it is quite sad if it is someones first look at the boys. i had heard the robb wells was so dissatisfied with the movie he was telling people not to see it. i really didnt like it and i saw it before watching season 8, so i really thought season 8 would be disappointing as well.

    season 8: i went into season 8 not expecting much. im not gonna lie tho, it really impressed me. there is some bad in my opinion. some of the jokes were really off the mark. i felt like many of the beloved "rickyisms" were forced. alot of times it seemed they were trying to hard. and seriously tho, how can you being back corey without trevor. i understand that they left after season 6 because trevor did not want to do it anymore. but you cant have one without the other. that being said, jacob was the best possible option to partner with corey. i know it bothers some people that tpb has never steadfastly cared for continuity, but this has never bothered me. i usually dont like when series add characters, but i felt that donny was pretty funny. overall i was impressed with the series, glad to see so many of the crew back (r.i.p. philadelphia collins) and the boys really hit the mark.

    what do you guys think??

    I LOVE tp boys.. Hilarious. Was glad to see they didn't lose a step when season 8 came out. I don't like how they had J-roc locked up for most of the season though. I felt he could have really added to the mix a lot more. I also like how they brought back Cory. maybe in season 9 they can make amends & bring Trevor back aswell. I was wondering what happened to Ray. I always enjoyed his character. He has a real trailer park type feel to his character.

    Don't legalize it was good. I don't much care for their live acts though. Idk what it is about it. Just doesn't grab my attention like the actual show does.

    On Netflix? So awesome, my wife and I are actually moving into a new place over the next few days, and we will have high speed internet which means Netflix which means season 9. Awesome. I'm so stoked.

    So pumped. I probably won't get to them until like Thursday at the earliest. We are moving stuff all day today, tomorrow I am working 2 jobs essentially from 6am to 10pm with maybe an hour in between to clean up/travel. Wednesday we have to finish cleaning our old place but I'm gonna get on season 9 as soon as I can.

    Did you get to finish it? I don't think it's the best season. But still had some great laughs. I seen it confirmed for season 10 & 11.

    Need to look up swearnet on netflix.. Not trailer park boys But still funny as hell.

    Finished season 9

    I again was surprised. Usually when a show ends, then is revived later it is crap but it was still pretty funny. It felt a little less forced than the previous ones but parts still don't feel like Trailer Park Boys, if that makes sense. I miss Philadelphia Collins (RIP) and Trevor.
