After twelve seasons running from 2016 to 2023, the popular Canadian comedy series Letterkenny has come to a planned end just in time to close out the year. Running for six episodes, all directed by series co-developer and executive producer Jacob Tierney, Letterkenny’s final season runs with a much tighter focus than preceding seasons and a loose, overarching narrative rather than complete standalone episodes. And while Letterkenny doesn’t end with a definitive conclusion, giving itself room to revisit and explore, it does feel bittersweet watching these familiar characters go off into an uncertain future.Set within the fictional small Ontario rural town of Letterkenny, with a population of approximately 5000 people, the tight friendships forming the core of the show are tested in the final season. Sick of being teased and not feeling like he fits in with protagonist Wayne and his sister Katy, Daryl decides to hang out with the town’s resident degenerates, straining his relationships with his usual friends. Meanwhile, Katy considers relocating to Mexico while the Skids plan a massive dance party for Stewart to DJ if they can just find a venue that will allow them to host it.The other main plot thread that spreads across multiple episodes is Katy’s growing interest in leaving behind the farm and her hometown. This draws in Reilly and Jonesy to play a greater role in the season as they realize they run the very real risk of losing her forever, quietly giving the narrative its most heartbreaking beats. For two musclebound ice hockey players, this lends some surprising poignancy to the usual comedic antics the pair are known for, and Dylan Playfair and Andrew Herr play it well, as does Michelle Mylett’s Katy.
