Our Review
Trailer Park Boys (2001) is a comedy and crime series from SwearNet. It has built a run of 105 episodes. It premiered on April 22, 2001. Viewers rate it 7.6 out of 10. It is currently running. It runs 12 seasons.
What Trailer Park Boys Is About
Follow the booze-fueled misadventures of three longtime pals and petty serial criminals who run scams from their Nova Scotia trailer park.
What to Expect When You Watch
The format keeps each instalment self-contained enough to drop into, the full run covers 105 episodes, spread across 12 seasons and it leans into its comedy/crime roots while leaving room for the quieter character beats.
Performance-wise the series leans on Tyrone Parsons, Bernard Robichaud and Robb Wells to carry the emotional weight, with the rest of the ensemble filling out the world around them.
Cast and Creative Team
Tyrone Parsons, Bernard Robichaud, Robb Wells, John Paul Tremblay, Mike Smith and John Dunsworth lead the cast.
Key roles include Tyrone Parsons as Tyrone; Bernard Robichaud as Cyrus; Robb Wells as Ricky; John Paul Tremblay as Julian; Mike Smith as Bubbles.
Why It Stands Out
Fans of comedy and crime have a clear reason to give this one a shot. It sits comfortably alongside SwearNet’s other originals, a 7.6/10 audience score puts it in steady company and it commits to its premise instead of hedging between tones.
Released in 2001 and carried by SwearNet with the series still running, it lands hardest with comedy and crime viewers.
How Trailer Park Boys Compares
If Trailer Park Boys lands for you, the next stops are Nathan for You, Taskmaster and Seinfeld, which share its comedy/crime lean.
Each of those sits at a different point on the same spectrum, so they make a natural follow-up once you finish the run here.
Where to Stream
Trailer Park Boys is available to stream on Crave, Netflix. Availability can shift by region, so confirm on the platform before you commit.

On the whole Trailer Park Boys is the kind of series that rewards a patient watch, with Tyrone Parsons and Bernard Robichaud doing the heaviest lifting, a tone that stays true to its comedy/crime roots, It has held up since 2001 and so if the premise sounds like your lane, the execution holds up.
The Bottom Line
Trailer Park Boys is a safe bet for anyone already inside the comedy and crime lane, at 105 episodes it is an easy run to work through, it is streaming on Crave, Netflix right now, the audience score holds around 7.6/10 and so there is little risk in starting it tonight.
Verdict: 7.6/10. Watch it if you want comedy/crime you can settle into.
