    For some reason i always thought it could feature some gen-ot people in real life.

    I've never watched the films tho, are they as good as the 1st seasons ?

    All the films are pretty good, the second one I liked the best though.

    Seasons 2-6 are the best, 7 is a slight step down and the first one is a little awkward because none of them have really gotten into character. I personally haven't watched the new seasons on Netflix though, but I've heard mixed opinions on them (ranging from around the quality of season 7, to worse than season 7).

    new ones are hit and miss some are fucking hilarious then some are meh.

    but 1-7 are golden.

    Yesterday two people at work were talking about the show and how they absolutely hate it because on top of not enjoying it in general, it adds to the idea that we are trashy hillbillies here in NS. I know some people who like it though. I'm not one of them.

    I didn't know this was a NS stereotype, i know Canadians sometimes make fun of saskatchewan but that's it

    I doubt people watching the show would really get the idea that all NS people are drunks stealing shopping carts for their hash driveway

    We're one step above Newfies when it comes to being looked down on by other provinces =P "Buncha dumb fisherman", and such. Saskatchewan jokes are usually about the land, not the people. Like jokes about it being really flat and boring and being able to fall asleep and stay on the very straight roads or watch your dog run away for a week =P

    And yeah you'd have to be dumb to think that it's an accurate depiction of Nova Scotians but it still isn't the most flattering =P I personally don't care that much, I just don't enjoy the show.

    It's a racist show perpetuating racist stereotypes, the fact it's allowed on TV just goes to show how far we truly have to go as a society.
    People working 2 jobs in the US (at least one part-time) - 7.8 Million (Roughly 4.9% of the workforce)

    People working 2 full-time jobs in the US - 360,000 (0.2% of the workforce)

    Average time worked weekly by the US Workforce - 34.5 hours

    The show was subsidized by the Canadian government for a time.

    No, you are all yuppies

    This is coming from an Ontarian mind you, we have a gluttony for allowing our premiers to ruin our province.

    The only thing racist about it is probably J-Roc appropriating gangster culture. Everything else about it is stupid.

    I dunno, it just sounded like a funny word to me. I have a colleague from the east coast and I call him a yuppie too (though he is from Cape Breton).

    I loved it. Characters and everything. Somewhat wish it remained more documentary style, later seasons simply took that feel out. Still, those shit weasels are damn funny.

    It actually took me a while to realize it took place in CA. I honestly thought it was satirical to American trailer trash for a while.

    This.

    Last season was a nice return to the good stuff that works, previous season (or even previous two) were super weak, too much emphasis on cameos and silly shit. Only exception being Talko lol.
