#10: Your Whole World

Top 20 Funniest Letterkenny Moments

“Letterkenny Problems Episode 1” (2013) Before “Letterkenny” was a Crave television series, it began as “Letterkenny Problems.” Throughout this series of episodic YouTube shorts, we got funny clips about farmers and the unique inconveniences of small-town Canadian life. Wayne talks about this conundrum while describing Christmas in Letterkenny. After mentioning McDonald’s, the local “Tim’s” and beer store are all closed, he laments that basically the whole world is shut down. It seems the scope of the horizons to which the farmers will look for fun doesn’t reach far beyond their village limits. If you want your friends who are clueless about “Letterkenny” to start watching, this line is all they need to know.

#9: “…What I Appreciates About You.”

Various Episodes It’s no secret that Wayne’s sister Katy is attractive. If we’re using Letterkenny speak, the locals would call her a sniper. One of Katy’s most keen admirers is Squirrely Dan. He usually speaks in subtext to express gratitude for Katy’s actions. Whether she's making a delicious trail mix, bringing lemonade, or being “pretty good at wrastlin’ he acknowledges her with a signature, What he really means is that Katy is, well, hot. It’s a charming catchphrase that Katy seems to enjoy flirtatiously, which might be why Squirrely Dan keeps using it. Or maybe he’s afraid of being too obvious while hitting on the toughest-guy-in-Letterkenny’s little sister.

#8: Speeding Through Adult Baseball Lines

“Valentime’s Day” The Letterkenny gang is a veritable firing squad of hilarious euphemisms. While countless instances of clever and quick wit occur throughout the show, the crowning achievement happens on Valentime’s Day. The woodsmen’s wily wordplay is wonderfully warranted when the town participates in a speed dating session. This episode’s highlight is Katy’s matchup with Dax and Ron. Katy and the *ahem* curious married couple auction off double entendres to each other at lightning speed. As their conversation continues, they keep improvising endlessly suggestive ways to use baseball jargon. With so many great lines, you’ll have to watch this sequence a toonie of times to catch them all.

#7: A Problem with Canada Gooses

“A Fuss at the Golf Course” One of the staples of the Great White North that ya just don’t mess with is the beloved Canadian goose. When Coach moves to get rid of natural evidence that the majestic animals were on the golf course, the Hicks and the McMurrays will have none of it. They confront Coach while heaping praise for the sacred black-and-white swans. Throughout their hilarious tirade, Wayne drops this bomb about how personally he takes any offense brought against gooses. It shows just how deadly serious Wayne is about Canadian pride. To really bring home his point, Wayne finishes with a signature phrase that he only lets out when he’s ready to bring out the big guns.

#6: A Little Eminem

“W’s Talk, Baby” While the hockey players of Letterkenny may be known more for “crushing sandoz before pracky” than winning games, there is one man who leads them…unfortunately. At the team’s helm is the Coach, from whom seldom is heard an encouraging word. The locker room often rattles with his nonsensical rants about discontinued snack foods and garbage can kicks. These diatribes usually end with his signature vulgar phrase. Surprisingly, Coach can actually deliver vaguely inspirational sayings. In season seven, he assures Tanis that the rebuilding hockey team’s “one shot” is His hilariously off Eminem quote marks a rare attempt where he actually tries to be a good and motivational leader. It’s one of the show’s most priceless moments.

#5: Anything Shoresy Says

Various Episodes From one scourge of the hockey boys to another, there can be no mention of Letterkenny without the inclusion of Shoresy. The character is played by a Jared Keeso that keeps his face obscured and constantly speaks in falsetto. Shorsey’s been a frequent teammate, occasional referee, and always antagonizer of Reilly and Jonesy. He’s known for doing everything from shooting out insulting chirps to griping about what charity cases their lives are. Shoresy also plays with the classic “I hit you, you hit the pavement” formula by adding an uproariously outlandish third step. Since there was no way we could settle for one quote, we had to dedicate time to putting his whole character in the spotlight.

#4: Farting and Falling Off Bikes

“Fartbook” One of the most refreshing aspects of “Letterkenny” is how it subverts many rural stereotypes. Characters are often depicted as observant critical thinkers who could probably discuss Shakespeare with as much depth as they discuss farts. And they do talk about flatulence. In fact, Wayne takes one particular moment to reminisce about just how great farts are. He somehow compares his love for expelled gas to the joy of watching children fall off bikes. While we’re still not quite sure what one has to do with the other, we love that Wayne’s quirky mind makes this unforgettable connection.

#3: “Wish You Weren’t Awkward.”

Various Episodes Wayne and Daryl have one of the strongest friendships in Letterkenny. Despite growing up together, they definitely have different maturity levels. Daryl retains certain manchild-like qualities like his love of yogurt and his oblivious mispronunciation of certain words. Every now and again, he’ll say something that reminds his friends how childish he is.When Darry coyly asks the gang to make a wish on a four-leaf clover or runaway eyelash, Wayne’s only dignified response is, This exchange perfectly sums up the dynamic between the friends. It’s also an encouraging reminder that friends who flock together can still be awkward together.

#2: “Pitter-Patter…”

Various Episodes Well, let’s get at ‘er. Our penultimate entry is beloved to both the Letterkenny-folk and their audience. “Pitter-patter” is a locally-recognized motivational idiom that basically means, “quit wasting time and get the job done.” It might be used before removing possum at the church. . Additionally, you can pull out this phrase to urge someone to “get to the point” or to kick off one of your group’s schemes. Pastor Glen even goes so far as to make Wayne a tee-shirt featuring the slogan. No matter what the context, the phrase “pitter-patter” is always welcome. Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.

“FiggerItOut”, “Relationships”

When U.S. French Fry Dressings Make No Sense

“Fightin’ Dudes.”, “Ain’t No Reason to Get Excited”

A Perfect Closing for the Pilot

“Muscles Coming Tomorrow?”, “A Fuss at the Ag Hall”

Arguably the Best Chirp for a Skid

#1: “How are ya now” “Good ‘n’ you?”

Various Episodes As Canadians are universally known to be polite, small-town canooks never forget to give a good “hello.” In Letterkenny, the preferred greeting is a cordial “how are ya now,” followed by the rehearsed responses “good ‘n’ you” and “not so bad.” What makes this salutation’s use so fun is that it spans more than just between friends. Everyone from annoying acquaintances to outright enemies exchange the words. The colloquy is so common that it seems as though Letterkenny-folk have been conditioned like dogs-to-dinner bells towards its use. Even the restroom urinal isn’t safe from “how are ya now.” The frequency of this eccentric exchange and its flexible comedy potential made it one of the show’s best.
