Sunnyvale Trailer Park 
Posted 5/16/2007 7:57:00 PM by Tony p Trailer Park Boys is a popular Canadian mockumentary television series focusing on the misadventures of a group of ex-convicts living in fictional Sunnyvale Trailer Park, located near Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia. It premiered in April 2001. The show's creator and director is Mike Clattenburg.
Shot from the cameraman's point of view (a lá COPS), the low-budget program became something of a rarity in English Canada: a homegrown phenomenon. For example, characters (particularly Bubbles) often appear on novelty tee-shirts. The show's lead trio formerly toured with Our Lady Peace, and are currently on tour with Guns N' Roses, with whom Bubbles sings his trademark song "Liquor and Whores". The Trailer Park Boys have also appeared in music videos with The Tragically Hip, while Bubbles has appeared with George Canyon and Snow, and they have been presenters at numerous award shows - always in character. Several famous artists appear on the show, such as Alex Lifeson from Rush in Closer to the Heart and singer Rita MacNeil in the season four finale Working Man.
The show has been a great success for the cable network Showcase, where it is the network's highest rated Canadian series. It airs in the United Kingdom and Spain on Paramount Comedy, in the Republic of Ireland on Channel 6 , in Iceland on Skjáreinn, in Australia on the Comedy Channel, in New Zealand on TV 2, in Israel on Xtra HOT, in the Netherlands on MTV Netherlands, in Denmark on DR2, in Portugal on SIC Radical, in Germany on Comedy Central Germany, and in Finland on Nelonen. In the United States, BBC America formerly aired a censored version of the show, but it is no longer part of their lineup. The show just launched in Poland on Comedy Central Polska [1]
