Trailer Park Boys: Jail

Lazily written and poorly acted, Trailer Park Boys JAIL is such a poor relation to the high points of this franchise the boys are at risk trampling their legacy. Within the TPB universe there were serious concerns about the ability of the show to truck on after the passing of John Dunsworth, given that he did most of the heavy lifting in the acting department. In his absence, JAIL, which is the first series in many years not on Netflix (appearing on their own streaming service Swearnet) has relocated the boys from the Park to the Prison but the lack of interesting supporting characters (the show always thrived with the likes of JRoc, Lahey and Randy and Barb) really shines a light on the inability of Wells and Tremblant as Ricky and Julian to carry the franchise on their own. Rush's Alex Lifeson and Terry from FUBAR (David Lawrence) try hard and have a couple of funny moments but overall you can see why Netflix weren't interested.

After much lame but fun redundant crappiness done ala greazzzzy, This series was great!!!! As great as the boys are and they've done mucho great stuff. I will always support their works. Jail! Just resets them and repositions their advance NEW trajectory. Love y'all...Freddy Herrmann. PS. I love Canada.

Hillarious... As a TPB fan I would say even thought it doesn't match the previous series because of many missing supporting cast members, it still was very funny. The most funniest part of this series was on occasions when we could hear Bubbles crying all of sudden out of nowhere.

This series isn't supposed to be a contest with the other shows put the boys have done in the past.

The fact is, they've done a new angle on a part of their character's lives that deserves to be examined. Is it perfect? No, but I don't think it needs to be. All of the shows took a little bit of time to warm up to. It's not exactly mainstream humour. But it does fall into the genre of TPB acting of the past with a very new and refreshing twist. I imagine there will be some who will whine about this and that. How it's not yet another trailer park season. Look to the animated series for that. You can't please everyone all of the time but I'll tell ya, these guys know how to make ME laugh. Give it a chance. Orrrrrr just f@@k off. Lol.

Let's be honest, this show is not as good as the original series. But it is 10 times better than the animated series. I am still laughing constantly, and I think they did a good job.
