Apparently the Detroit Red Wings play it in their dressing room.


The Red Wings have more Canadians than any other team in the NHL.

Which is yet another reason (if true, I'm not 100% right now - very Swedish these days) why Leaf fans should hop on the bandwagon now...

Acquiring Luke Richardson? Come on!

Looking forward to the new season.. Ricky should guest star on 24 since he's used to wearing the same damn thing every episode..

I'm from the east coast, so I usually go to the season premiere party with the cast. Guess I won't be making it this year. Those guys are hilarious and I'm glad they are gaining more and more popularity.

Sorry I have to disagree. I think people are fooled and distracted by foul language (like early Simpsons watchers were) and drug use. But if you look past the offensiviness you see the parody and critical elements coming out. The constant barbs at our welfare state, Alberta's weath and tax policies, the icongraphy of the Canadian hoser, the lax drug laws, our crazy bilingualism, our gun laws, gay politics, and of course the criminal justice system.

I think its on par with the Simpsons its just that this is a very different show taking a different approach.


Must have missed those two episodes. The absence of characters with clearly French names is odd because the show is set in the Maritimes.

You can get a preview here. Just download the two smaller sample files. The full episodes only work if you pay them money over the Internet; sounds like a scam worthy of Ricky and Julian.

It seems in this season:
-Ricky's dad is out of jail.
-Randy and Lahey break up.
-Randy might be in charge of the park now.

Absolutely wonderful show...I've followed it since the original movie (sans bubbles) was produced. I am not at all surprised at the following it has attracted as it has been slowly introduced to new markets. IMO the Christmas Special of two years ago was definitely my favorite episode. Long live Smokey!!

I used to dance with Cory Bowles (who plays Cory of course - guy with the dreads for those who are unfamiliar). Hilarious guy! Danced with Lucy one year as well.
As an interesting bit of information - did you guys know that Lucy taught in Korea?

Yeah, I actually found that out on this site by doing a search of old threads. Very cool.

A friend of mine is stopping by from Afghanistan to visit in a couple months, who says he went to school with the actors who play Ricky and Julian. He says the way they act in the show is basically their personalities, although I'm assuming they're a lot more responsible.
