- TriviaWhen Barbara brings Randy to her trailer to stay for the holidays, upon seeing Jim he says "Simon?" Implying that Lahey had "acquired" Randy's services before as a male prostitute. Jim then quickly tells Randy to never call him that name ever again, and to only ever refer to him as "Mr. Lahey" which he in fact does, only ever calling him 'James' in one episode of the entire first 7 seasons and the first two films.

Featured review
This is a must see for any fan of the Trailer Park Boys. Of course, I may be a little biased, as I love what is in my opinion, the only truly great show produced locally, but this prequel was entertaining from start to finish. It was particularly amusing to see J Roc before he became "leader of the Roc Pile", and how his decline into rapper culture came about. There's plenty of laughs, and if you're a fan of the series, you will appreciate the humour (though I understand that it's not for everyone).
When I first saw this, I was under the misunderstanding that this was the original movie on which the series was based, as the plot, era etc all seemed to fit, but the fact that it was written after gave the writers the benefit of foresight, and many amusing plot devices to tie into "future" episodes, and explain the way many things are. I still have yet to see the original movie, but if it's half as good as this, it will be well worth watching.
