The makers of television’s Trailer Park Boys announced plans Thursday to turn the series into a feature film.
The big-screen offering will star the show’s original cast — Robb Wells as Ricky, John Paul Tremblay as Julian, and Mike Smith as Bubbles — and is set to land in theatres in the summer of 2006.
Comedy veteran Ivan Reitman, best known for directing movies like Ghostbusters and Meatballs, will serve as the film’s executive producer. Series creator Mike Clattenburg will direct.
The story of three lovable losers who are never able to scheme their way out of the fictitious Sunnyvale trailer park, the show kicked off its fifth season on Showcase earlier this month.

About This Site

As a guy who occasionally curates art shows and wrangles artists together, I often have to edit and post artist bios, profile pictures, and artwork images. This can be a problem, since many artists and writers aren’t used to selling themselves. Artists rarely know how to present their art for display in a brochure, and writers aren’t used to writing about themselves.

Writers often treat the bio like it’s an interview or something. Maybe like they’re having a conversation with you, the reader. While it may work sometimes, the most common way to write a bio is to write in the 3rd person.

I’m like those writers, and I’m talking to you directly, unlike the common way to do a bio. You should see my About page. It makes sense to me, since this is a bit which describes my blog’s website. When I get famous enough that I don’t have time to talk to you, I’ll have an intern write everything in 3rd person. Until then, you get to talk to me.

Like blogs of old, this one is a personal document of the comings and goings of me. Articles I’ve written, links I’ve posted, videos I liked, etc. Here, a first-person perspective is the way to go, at least for now. So, this is my site. I’m D. H. McKee, a sometimes artist, sometimes writer. Mostly just a guy on the internet.
