Letterkenny is a Canadian television sitcom created by Jared Keeso and directed by Jacob Tierney, both of whom are also its developers and primary writers.

The series follows the adventures of people residing in the fictional rural Ontario community of Letterkenny and stars Keeso, Nathan Dales, Michelle Mylett, and K. Trevor Wilson.

Episodes deal with small-town life amongst different types of people: the farmers ("Hicks"), gym goers and out-of-towners who play for the local ice hockey team ("Jocks"), the town's obviously closeted Christian minister Glen, the drug addicts ("Skids"), members of the nearby First Nation reservation ("Natives"), the neighbouring Mennonites, and the Québécois.

The show has been praised for subverting the trope of small-town residents being portrayed as narrow-minded and unintelligent; this is most commonly exemplified by the running joke that almost all characters express sophisticated and informed views on social issues and can produce a constant flow of one-liners, puns, comebacks, and wordplay when in conversation with each other.

[6] Tierney additionally has a supporting role as Pastor Glen in the series, whose cast also includes Michelle Mylett, Dylan Playfair, Andrew Herr, Tyler Johnston, Lisa Codrington, Kaniehtiio Horn, and K. Trevor Wilson.

[28] To prepare for the final season, New Metric Media re-acquired the distribution sale rights to the series and the rest of their catalog from WildBrain and struck a streaming deal with Netflix internationally.

[30] Littlekenny, a six-episode animated spin-off serving as an origin story focusing on the main characters as children, premiered on June 28, 2019.

[32] In June 2021, Bell Media announced the Letterkenny spin-off Shoresy, based on the eponymous character played by Keeso.

John Doyle of The Globe and Mail called the series "refreshing and intoxicating [...] funny, mad, droll, childish, and spiky".

Focusing on the show's characteristic use of thick Ontario dialects, he wrote, "Not since Trailer Park Boys launched have we heard the flavourful, salty Canadian vernacular used with such aplomb and abandon.

[...] Almost all the conversations are raw comedy and utterly plausible as small-town guy talk, not just in Canada but in villages and parishes wherever the grass grows.
