Anyone here watch Schitt’s Creek?

[DarkMagician]

It's a Canadian show that's on Netflix. It's about a formerly rich family having to rebuild their lives after their business manager robbed them. They move to a small town and build new relationships there while growing from their past. It's also extremely LGBT friendly. I love David's and Patrick's relationship.

I haven't because of the bad name, but I've been told I should.

 

[Crazymoogle]

Well, not only is it great, but it's up for a handful of Emmy's, so if if you haven't noticed it now, you probably will soon.

 

[Viewt]

Yeah, just in the last year. My fiancée really loves it. If nothing else, it's worth it to see Catherine O'Hara put on a comedy clinic and own a role outside a Christopher Guest movie.

 

[carlsojo]

Fold in the cheese, David.

 

[Hours Left]

It's the best.

Ignore the name.

Catherine O'Hara and Eugene Levy had a long history working together on SCTV, so it was a lock that they could pull off their roles.

Also, random but I must admit I was surprised to learn that Twyla (the waitress) is Eugene's daughter in real life. Makes the restaurant scenes funnier, somehow

 

[Yamajian]

Really funny show with some decent acting thrown in. Love it.

 

[Verelios]

It's surprisingly good once you get past the first few episodes.

 

[Ferda]

Wasn't sure about it at first but I love Emily Hampshire so gave it a shot and it really grew on me. Wouldn't recommend it to just anyone but the characters are great and Dan Levy, who at first I couldn't stand, really grew on me. I love his chemistry and relationship with Patrick. The character growth in this show is quite amazing.

 

[Pokiehl]

The key with the show is getting through the first couple of episodes. They aren't bad per se, but what follows is absolute gold.

 

[lunarworks]

For most of the show's run it hasn't taken place in a specific country, although there were clear hints of Canada, but Dan Levy recently admitted that the show takes place in Canada.

The parents bought the town as a joke for their son's birthday one year, because of the name, and the town itself is their only asset left after the taxman takes everything.

Also, you've never heard the expression "up shit creek"?

Of course I have. Hence why I thought the title was a dumb joke.

 

[VideogameVices]

6 or so episodes, in... I gave up.

Its just not funny.

 

[BearPawB]

It gets better as it goes for sure.
And while it is never like, laugh out loud constantly funny, the cast is charming and will win you over.

 

[PrisonerOfDoom]

Yes, I love it.

 

[Dice]

I love it. I'm definitely happy it keeps from being too sappy like 98% of the time and has its characters remain on the low road.

 

[Mona]

 

[mattiewheels]

I was just thinking about this show today, and was thinking about a spinoff called Fuchs' Sake.

 

[xxracerxx]

Yes, one of my favorite running shows.

But that's the root of it. They're put a terrible situation that they can't get out of... so they have to make the best of it.

I don't know what to tell you. The title of the show turned me off to it. I assumed it was CBS comedy-tier. I've been told from people I trust that it's a quality show. I'll get around to it eventually.

I tried watching this 3 times and couldn't get past the first few episodes.

Glad I tried again. Binged it all in 2 days. Hilarious show. Love it.

Same reason I didn't watch initially. But its way better than the CW ass name suggests.

 

[Yams]

One of my favorite shows

 

[Deleted member 58401]

It's excellent. As others have said, the name makes it sound 400x worse than it is, and the first four or five episodes are more like a moderately funny and weird setup for what the series becomes. So, a bit of an investment, but very worth it.

 

[Parch]

Good cast. Chris Elliott should have a bigger role.

 

[SwampBastard]

Fold in the cheese, David.

I don't know how to fold broken cheese.

 

[Radnom]

I really love this show. the concept is almost like a slower Arrested Development with heart in place of bile. It definitely grows on you.
I quite appreciate how much of the comedy is in the facial expressions!

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Dan Levy is fucking fantastic.

 

[Deleted member 51608]

Annie Murphy's Alexis is magic and I adore her. Somehow she makes this very (initially) route, cliche character and just makes her shine. He bunny hands thing she does kills me

 

[Indelible]

I watched the first 4 seasons, solid show with likable characters.

 

[Deleted member 17092]

Yeah it's legit, although awkwardly bad at times but that's kind of a big part of the appeal

 

[Lulu]

Every basic white girl I fuck with watches this, so I've seen a few episode and I can't say I'm a fan.

 

[TheGhost]

Ex put me onto it, show is brilliant.
It's last season is coming up.
Stevie was my favorite in season 1 but then they put her in the background.

David and Alexis are now my favorites.

I've noticed the last episode of every season ends on a real touching moment. Which is unlike the majority of the season.

 

[G_Shumi]

It's fine:



It's a really great show and it's something that a lot of people can genuinely enjoy. Looking forward to the final season.

Her facial expressions (and Dan's) are like the heart of the show to me.

 

[KarmaCow]

The reveal of David's remodelling of the clothing store is the hardest I've laughed in a long time.

 

[BAD]

Love it and am glad they get to go out on a high note. The cast is really the charm of it.

 

[Deleted member 8257]

I did not like it.

This by laugh Moira alone made me stick with this show and should've gotten Catherine O'hara an emmy nom

 

[sangreal]

I had no interest in it but my family kept telling me how great it is so I begrudgingly gave it a shot and ended up really loving it. Some of the characters are really grating at first but it grows on you

 

[Nude_Tayne]

I couldn't get into it. The cast is great, the acting is great, the concept is solid, but the writing just always fell flat for me and I would go entire episodes without laughing once. Granted I only watched like 4-5 episodes but that was enough for me.

 

[jiggle]

Love it

 

[Nacho]

My girlfriend loves this show. I like what I've seen, im just not looking for a straight comedy series to get into.

Love her when she puts her nose in the air and emotes a no with a scrunched up face. Her and David contagiously spread mannerisms to one another.

Well it's a pretty queer show so you're good! 🥁

 

[Parch]

It isn't a laugh track sitcom and the characters can be cringy at times, but once you get the hang of the subtle comedy, it grows on you. The Rose family is just quirky funny. Every season has gotten better.

 

[I KILL PXLS]

Yes. It is awesome. If you're a fan of early Arrested Development, you should give it a try. It's not as punchy with the jokes as that is and isn't laugh a minute, but the humor feels a bit similar to me.
