Letterkenny is on Hulu — Pitter Patter, get at ‘er!
The show continues Canada’s long history of exporting the best comedy to the US of Eh — so, “figger it oot.”
I will admit that seeing trailers on Hulu for the Canadian show Letterkenny left me perplexed at first…and then cranky. I didn’t get it. One guy (Wayne, played by Jared Keeso, the shows creator) standing in a field laying down some kind of stilted rhythmic slam poetry of sorts didn’t register with me.
From the trailer, I couldn’t determine what the show was about (or aboot). However, looking to ignore all the political nonsense that is continuing to swallow up the US of Eh. I had a dire need of a distraction and I figured with eight seasons, if I liked it, I’d have that distraction so I dove in.
Distraction found — I didn’t like Letterkenny, I f’ing loved it.
I’ve cycled through all eight seasons and have circled back for a repeat.
The stories of Wayne, Daryl, Dan and Katy and the rag-tag group of the other characters in Letterkenny, Ontario is without fail one of the funniest shows I’ve seen. The last time I recall laughing so hard was when a friend suggested I watch It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia years ago.
