Age of The Nerd
It has been absolutely amazing to sit back and watch the success of a sitcom set in a small rural Canadian town as it only continues to grow in popularity as more and more fans discover the comedic gem that is “Letterkenny”. The series, which began as a web series back in 2013 called “Letterkenny Problems” before reaching a deal with Crave TV in Canada who began airing full episodes back in 2016. The show is now on its ninth season which is currently streaming on Hulu here in the States.
“Letterkenny” features star and co-creator Jared Keeso as Wayne and his friends Daryl (Nathan Dales) and Squirrelly Dan (K. Trevor Wilson). The three men represent some of the Hicks in a town of 5000 also populated by Hockey players and Skids, the Goth misfits who spend their time on video games, tech music, and meth. Once you learn to navigate the linguistics of the series (trust us, this is a thing) you will soon find yourself mesmerized by the amazing cast of characters that make up the town, and the superb chemistry within the cast makes for comedic gold.
Fans will be thrilled to know that the series has been renewed for at least two more seasons and we absolutely can’t wait to see the additional hijinks these characters will find themselves in as we navigate life in this small 5,000 resident town.
We recently had a chance to catch up with several members of the cast to chat about what is in store for the future. how much fun they have on-set and just who ends up having the best wordplay! You can check out our exclusive video interviews below:
