I found this at a store for $5, and re-bought it, even though I already own the version that came with the Conky puppet. Why? Read on.

1. Because I'm crazy like that and I love TPB.
2. Because it was cheap enough to warrant the purchase.
3. Because the previously unreleased on DVD "Trailer Park Boys 101" special as hosted by Alex Lifeson (Rush) was worth it to me.

This double-length episode on its own is one of the best the series ever produced. Taking place in 1997, well before the fictional adventures of Ricky, Julian, and Bubbles were documented, this episode reveals a lot of TPB backstory and delivers a lot of laughs.

Ricky is bailed out of jail for Christmas to help Julian with his present stealing racket. Ricky's unhappy because Christmas is the best time to be in jail ("12 days of partying," Ricky says). It doesn't take long for Lahey to get wise to the scheme, and with new friend Randall in tow, promptly gets back into the booze. In the meantime, Jamie and Tyrone discover rap music while Corey and Trevor become sidekicks.

Some of the funniest dialogue in the show's history was right here in the Christmas special. Ricky mistaking God for Santa Claus is priceless (if you're not offended). By the time you get to his big speech at the end, ("Christmas is about getting drunk and stoned with your family!") you'll be howling.

Like I said, this is hilarious if you're not easily offended. If you are, I would advise you to stay far away from everything Trailer Park Boys. If you enjoy well delivered, largely improvised dialogue performed by Canada's best, then dig in for some Christmas dinner.

The special features here are the typical TPB fare. Alternate takes, extended takes, bloopers, and so on abound, making this worth your coin. As I mentioned before, to make up for the lack of the Conky puppet, you get the Alex Lifeson documentary. As a Rush and TPB fan, this was worth the re-buy for me. You also get a preview for the first TPB movie, although this is well out of date now.

Merry Christmas, make sure mom is nowhere around when you watch this!

Five stars.

The Trailer Park Boys christmas special was garantee to be funny as hell! This episode along with The (american Office's christmas episode in season 2 are the two weirdest and funniest christmas shows I've seen!

This is a prequel so its funnier if you are familiar with the Trailer Park Boys material before you watch. Watch out, you will also have many hours of fun with the Conky finger-puppet!
Too funny.

Its a great show. It does contradict that actual movie that was done before the series started, but still a great thing to watch.
