Anyone see this show? I never heard of it until I stumbled across it on Netflix. We're almost done with season 2 and I can't stop laughing. It started good, but I think it's gotten funnier as it's gone on.
In a nutshell, Eugene Levy's character was a filthy rich businessman whose family was used to the life of luxury. Stuff went down and the IRS repossessed everything he owned (so basically everything the family had) except for a shit town called Schitts Creek that he bought for his son as a birthday gag gift when he was younger. In an effort to keep a roof over their head, the family is forced to relocate to Schitts Creek and live in the rundown motel
Fun Fact: The son to the left is Eugene Levy's son in real life as well.

Anything with Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Harra is gold by definition.
Surprised it's not a Guest show. I'll try to watch it though.

Wrapped up the two available seasons on Netflix. This show never failed to deliver and I can't recommend it enough. Can't wait for season 3.

I started watching this after I watched Santa Clarita Diet and I couldn't stop until I watched every ep. This show is funny and I'm glad it will be continued. :tup to the Levy's.

I loved when John stood up for the town and Roland and Jocelyn at dinner.

Love this show. I'm currently watching season 3 here in Canada.

Agreed! I was hoping he would, and he did.

Wrapped up season 3 last night. Just like the first two season, it delivered consistently throughout the season. IMO, both Alexis and Ted have become more bearable, and I was kind of glad we didn't see Mutt at all. I can't stand the way he talks.

Halfway through Season 2. Started watching on a whim... My first impression was "Arrested Development rip off", but realized that it's much better than I thought it'd be.
I've got to admit.. I've developed a crush on Emily Hampshire (Stevie).
-
This show is stupid and funny and I can't stop once I start and I don't know why...lol. I hope they keep going.
-
Because Eugene Levy and Katherine O'Hara are one of the funniest duos in show business.
-
Finally getting through Season 2. For some reason this show is entertaining.
Although, I think I got a crush on Dan Levy. He's just cute
-
Just finished season 5 last night. This show is such a gem.

Holy crap am I behind. I remember finishing season 3 and just forgot about checking for new episodes.

Just finished this silly, moving, emotionally touching show a couple of weeks ago.
The season 2 finale when Johnny Rose defends the town and the Schitts in front of their snobbish old friends, moved this from an oddball comedy up to another level. Such warmth, intelligence, and sincerity. Eugene Levy was beyond excellent.

Just started S2. I am digging it.
Levy, O'Harra and the son are all tremendous. I think they could have done a much better job as far as the daughter goes (nothing special acting and is rather plain in general), but that is a minor quibble. Chris Elliot is gold as always.

Her character develops more better I think in the later seasons.
The most heartfelt moment was in Season 4, the Open Mic episode. That's a great song. And made me want to learn it for my Boo. 😁

This show is SO FUNNY.
We are about halfway through season 5, so approaching the end. :|
-
We just finished this up over the weekend. So good. One of the funniest and best shows I've ever watched.
Hopefully they will find an excuse to touch base with the Rose family again at some point in the future.

The waitress, Twyla is also Eugene Levy’s daughter in real life. I just finished season 2 and will watch the whole series. Like Jay, I have a crush on Stevie.

That is a great way to end the show, I think. The entire show has a lot that can draw people into it. Each character has their moments, and the series does a good job of making episodes centered on that. The character arc of the series is what drew me in, how each season ending made you want to know, what is next for the family.

Someone on Reddit posted this Christmas lawn decoration. Is it just me, or does that model look not that small?

Got done with this show recently and it was a riot. I'm glad they added the drama aspects to it later on and it gave the comedy that much more depth. I love how they wrote all the main characters in the show, each one was so unique and had their own personality that really shone throughout.
I kinda wished they had more for Stevie and Jocelyn as I thought those side characters were fantastic and their chemistry with other main leads was great, but that's just a minor gripe. The only character I never cared for was Mutt, the son, and thankfully they didn't use him much after a few seasons.
