      Yeah, well we in the States had to wait until 2009 to get Trailer Park Boys so it cuts both ways.

    The second episode was so much better than the first. “I wax my rocket every day!”

    • xfoley8

      “…with less Sodom and more Gomorrah.” Best line of the night. I couldn’t breath, I was laughing so hard.

      • Cyberxion

        I found it amusing that in the closed captioning for that episode, they replaced that line with “…but with less commandments and more car crashes”.

  • Cris

    Mr. President … what the hell?

  • JohnnyDC

    Fantastic episodes!

    I laughed so hard on just a single throw-a-way line from Zap talking to Nixon’s head.

    “Mr. President…what the hell?”

      To each their own. But I’m sure that every single other person on the planet likes every single thing that you like. Actually, if that’s the case, your taste would be pretty bland.
