I couldn't even understand what the fuck they were saying for the first few episodes.  You really do have to watch most of the first season in this case I think.

I did notice I couldn't watch if I took too strong of an edible. The dialogue was too fast sometimes even with closed captions lol.

I have several Canadian friends and have been to many of their family functions. If you know Canadians this show will absolutely slay you like it does me. They hit every single stereotype perfectly. 

Not sure where they are finding the female talent for the show. 

I worked for a Canadian firm for 7 years, lived in Toronto, spent years in Calgary, Montreal, Ottawa, and Vancouver. A big chunk of the management team I hired were Canadians. So nope.  That's not it.

That was actually one of the biggest issues. I'm hearing impaired so I have to use captions and by half way through the episode I was exhausted.

If you have the time, I would watch a few more.  I can't hear worth a shit either, but you start to understand what they're saying after a few episodes. It's kind of like the scene where Antonio Banderas starts figuring out Norse in the The 13th Warrior.

My buddy's dad called us both degens when we were in high school. He was right.

His fat drunk uncle would add s to the end of every fucking word like squirrely Dan. Drove me insane.

Our mechanic on the farm does the unnecessary pluralization thing.  “Anyhows” is the big one.  Guy is absolutely brilliant in his own way, but it can be jarring.

Possessive “s” on proper nouns is super common in the upper Midwest and Canada.  You don’t go to Aldi, you go to Aldi’s.

Maybe my Canadians are just a bunch of degens, buddy. They're the Nova Scotian type.

Give your balls a tug. Ball up bang out.

What Was It Like Seeing All Your Friends Move Up A Grade Without You And Do You Use It As Motivation Today?

Probably Sudbury.
