No problem. It would be fucking painful without John. take all the time in the world and peace
Sending y’all good vibes. Thank you for telling it like it is. Hang in there, Trailer Park Boys and crew. My condolences to the family of Mr. John Dunsworth.
I saw an interview of him once when some talking head was being critical of some aspect of the show, and Mr. Dunsworth spoke passionately about how the show actually helped people. People contacted him, spoke to him and said so. Take care.
Hugs, prayers to all mourning the loss of Jim. Hoping you all recoup and continue. đź’›
Prayers to you all. Your show is THE best.
I just started watching the show in the last 30 days it’s great I can’t stop watching it I love jim great actor great he will b missed he seem like a great person
The world is “shitter” place without Mr.Lahey. RIP John.
Take all the time you “boys” need!
No fucking problem at all. Bummed we couldn’t celebrate the memory of John together this Christmas, but we’ll see you in April to toast to his memory.
Happy Fuckin Holidays Boys
Hey boys… god bless.. I don’t blame you fuckers for takin time off for that… It’s only right. Dunsworth was a good actor, especially the drunk parts. I mean it is actually hard to play drunk when your not completely wasted… Remember the end of liquor smurf… I could barely understand what the fuck he was saying…
I watched all of the USA Tour last night and it kicked ass, but it did the same thing season 11 did, leave me pissed the fuck off because it was over… it would be badass if you started season 12 referring to the end when fuckface gave you guys passports to leave Sebastian’s house… it was awesome…better then Europe. Anyway love u guys… I have family in Halifax and it would kick ass to meet u… take it easy
I know the real reason your not touring, because it’s against your vice principles
God bless all of you. Peace and love.
I purchase tickets for the Trailer Park Boys Sat, Dec 9 @ 8:00 PM Verizon Theatre at Grand Prairie – Grand Prairie, TX. I completely respect and understand why the show has been postponed, I’m curious when/where my tickets will be good in April 2018. R.I.P. John Dunsworth. <3
My hope is to see the show continue, Yes the loss of John is extremely hard and leaves a hole in our hearts and homes. Jim Lahey was a part of my life just as much as yours, I’ve never felt so close to any “T.V. Show” as I do this one, Fact is we all have watched you grow up, we the fans have been following your every move hoping , wishing and yes laughing while you take us through your sordid adventures. 20 years of Fuckery boys! Please do not stop, Do not forget the ones that have past nor forget the ones still with you. Life is full of great things and great people and wonders to both love and hate. The show MUST go on boys.
My hope is for 20 more years you will be able to bless me and my family with your talent to make us laugh and cry.
Rest in peace Mr. Lahey you truly are one of a kind bud.
Still missing him.
Your show makes me so happy and wife so mad.
Sorry about that, Mrs Asher
Boyz!!! I need Snoop!
I’m on a mission to get my friend to the ocean in the next week. She’s under hospice care at home, She will only live another few weeks. I’m looking at Folly Beach because I know the area very well.
I’m trying to help get her to the ocean and to meet SnoopDogg, her two last wishes ❤️ I’ve tweeted him and Martha Stewart. You never know what could happen.
