Discovered this series while browsing You Tube. Have watched all nine seasons, and enjoyed the show, more so in the early seasons than the latter. As others have mentioned, it became more and more "woke" as the seasons progressed.
Subtitles would have been handy, as sometimes the dialogue is hard to understand, but the wordplay is great between the main characters, and the running gags are fun, "To be Fair", Ostriches, etc. I especially enjoyed Squirrelly Dan and his turning every other word into a plural. I also, like the others in the show, really liked BONNIE McMURRAY!
I know that Hollywood is currently going through a phase of making movie after movie showing female empowerment, while thrusting males in secondary submissive roles. That culture seems to have traveled north and is widespread in Letterkenny as well. Even though the men get most of the screen time and posture, bluster, and fight, the girls in town seem to run the show. Episode after episode show them lecturing and ordering the guys around. That gets to be a bit tiring after a while.
Katy could easily be a poster child for spoiled brats. She's entitled, beautiful, and knows it. She bullies most everyone around her. Always has a sarcastic put down ready for someone, even those closest to her. Also, has a double standard for the men who date her. They can't stray or her brother and his friends will avenge her, but she can "scorch earth" in her relationships. A real toxic beauty.
Lots to like about the show, but it became a bit redundant by the ninth season. I thought it was fine up to the fifth season, and tailed off after that.
