Julian: The barman with a plan

Always in a black shirt, always with a drink in his hand. Julian(John Paul Tremblay) is the mastermind of the group – at least in theory.

Cool, calm, but rarely successful
Always on the lookout for the “big thing”

Ricky: King of stoner logic

Ricky is stupid – but convinced otherwise. He grows weed, swears, smokes and stumbles through life with a fag in his mouth.

Stoner, petty criminal, cult figure
Speaks its own language (“Rickyisms”)

Bubbles: Cat lover & crafting genius

Bubbles(Mike Smith) lives in a shed, wears oversized glasses and loves his cats. He is the lovable oddball with a heart.

Fan favorite & running gag machine
Weed? Yes – but rather in peace

Why is Trailer Park Boys cult?

Because it’s dirty, cheap and wonderfully honest. Not a glossy sitcom, but chaos TV from the caravan. The series makes fun of everything – especially itself. The visuals are cheap, the dialog blunt – but that’s intentional. If you get into it, you’ll be hooked.

Mockumentary with a wink
Reefer humor + social criticism

More good series with weed?

If you liked Trailer Park Boys – here are two series with similar broken charm:

Workaholics: Office job with bong

The Workaholics, three guys in a call center, do everything but work. Lots of weed, few morals. Workaholics is slick, American and over-the-top – Trailer Park Boys, on the other hand, has a documentary style, trashier, rougher and with a Canadian assi charm. Both chaotic, but very different in tone and look.

US comedy with a high school vibe
Chaotic, coarse & very funny
To the series: Workaholics

Weeds: Suburban mom deals weed

A suburban mother becomes a dealer – blackly humorous, exciting and full of taboo-breaking. Weeds is a classic with a bite. Weeds combines drama with black humor and offers a coherent story – Trailer Park Boys thrives on episodic madness, absurd characters and dry slapstick in the trailer park.
