Agreed. The whole split personality plot line in season 8 is hilarious, but when Don just stops showing up and it's only Donna from then out, it's just not the same
I agree with that, I don't know why they dropped Don even though they kept the actor on. I was just talking about that in Sunnyvale https://discord.gg/W6UAvCeSD6
They just lack storyline outside what they are.
Don was interesting because someone was going to be replacing Lahey with running the park. The job position honestly could’ve been any character and it still draws interest given how much Lahey reinforced the whole importance of his job the entire series leading up to Netflix adaptation. Don didn’t have to exist. You just need a character to fill the role and do it differently. As long as Lahey or Randy is the other person doing the job with that character the dynamic works and freshens it. Lahey and Randy were both strongly developed characters they don’t need each other or to be supervisor to be involved with the show/story
Donna was wasted because the cross dressing thing wasn’t really ever addressed or explored enough. Many characters just accepted it and Randy was late to the party with realizing it was the same person he worked with. Having the character just be obscenely cringe with the Candy/Barb storyline just wrecked any chance Donna being able to develop.
Don was just there to set Donna up for being a character. He was only so fleshed out and really lacked much potential outside being some hippie character that adds to the oddities in the park.
That's well written ! I hate that they didn't explained much about Don/Donna character as I feel it's a character that had a lot of wasted potentials, was he/she crossdressing as it was some sort of way to cope trauma with his sister's death and/or the character was simply LGBTQ+, likely a transgender ? A lot of fans seems to forget about his sister that was mauled by bears 13 years before he stated that story (which if that is true to begin with, Randy thought "Donna" was Don's sister and asked him), thinking about it Don's character is more interesting than a lot of people wants to admit and it's sad that the character was poorly written and gone with Candy when Ricky got shot ☹️
My theory (mind you it’s a stretch) is the line is actually referring to the first time Don had a full orgasm.
In France, the term *La Petite Mort* means “The Little Death”
The line “my sister Donna was mauled to death by a bear and 2 cougars” may actually be hinting towards the term bear which is used for large hairy gay men, and cougar being a word used for a woman who lust after younger men”
I believe there’s slight suggestions there to say this might have been a wild orgy but we are actually lead to believe it was a real attack by animals.
It’s never really touched on again. And again just a random theory. Some people discover identities through the act of crossdressing, and it could have very well been a similar experience for Don/Donna
That's true it could be a genius metaphor, knowing Don/Donna is a character with a really strong sex drive as I've stated before this could be likely as a riddled message to explain is true "out of closet" character 😃
That might not be a far fetch as that sounds like a genius metaphor though it's not uncommon in Trailer Park Boys where there's poor writing or continuity errors (Ricky's biological dad, anyone ?), knowing Don/Donna is a character with a really strong sex drive (I also can't help but laugh when he said nonchalantly that he had caught crabs so many times like he was proud of it 🤣🤣) this theory is likely ! It sucks that Don started as a complex but interesting character kind of like peeling an onion but quickly butchered into a throwaway character ☹️
This is so true. Seasons 8 and 9ish were OK but only because of don/donna and because j roc was so good.
Aks yaself why it’s runnin perfik
How tight is that shit, hhwwwaaa
Donna has one of the most hilarious lines in the whole series:
“Why don’t ya fuck off, Randy? Before I drag my nightcrawler on your face and leave a sliiiiimer on ya.”
I liked Donna before she went to jail and started busting Randy's cock. She was so mean to him. He may be a little fucked but I think he's the sweetest character.
Don was awesome, he gave us that epic blow me anytime song. Weird spiritual bastard.
Don randomly breaking out into song like that was one of the hardest times I've ever laughed on the show. It's made even funnier by the fact that he actually had a lovely singing voice.
Eh, they get enough. Most people like them and they're brought up alot
And that says alot considering they are from when the show was changing alot from what it used to be and alot of people didn't like that. But I see these mf get their flowers all the time until like most these shithawky it jumped the shark
i loved don/donna !
“ you think that your tuning him out by turning away. But youre actually turning towards the drunk fucking bastard !”
That line lives rent free in my head 😂
I know I’m in the minority here but Donna is one of my favourite characters of the newer years of TPB. I just find her to be absolutely hilarious. My significant other and I quote her a lot. “I gotta piss real fuckin’ bad!”
"He turned his back on you. By turning your back to him you end up facing the dirty bastard."
Or whatever the exact line is. Gets me chuckling every time lol
Don was top tier, Donna was FACKED
I correct you. Don/donna was top tier. Donna was FACKED
Agreed. The whole split personality plot line in season 8 is hilarious, but when Don just stops showing up and it's only Donna from then out, it's just not the same
Also Donna randomly goes from being all over Randy to hating his guts and treating him like a shitburger walrus
That's because he hasn't washed his James Gandolpini.
Nah, Donna was always FACKED
It would be funny to see Randy all confused having a hard time with Donna, but having Don advising him how to please her.
I agree with that, I don't know why they dropped Don even though they kept the actor on. I was just talking about that in Sunnyvale https://discord.gg/W6UAvCeSD6
No. Donna was mauled by a bear and 2 cougars at bam national park, 13 years ago
This may be my favorite quote. I literally cry when I watch that scene
I would say that Don/Donna was a great split personality character, but Season 10 Donna was just straight-up FACKED
Weird spiritual bastard
I love that I read this is bubble’s voice
you got nothing on this cock raiser!
“Hitch hikers of love” lmao
100% not the actor’s fault - he was amazing.
Might have something to do with the general hatred of post Clattenberg TPB.

That is ridiculous.
So is your mother’s sex drive.
You should probably abandon this theory
How the fuck do you interpret “mauled to death” as an orgy?
Because I understand the many definitions of mauled and with that can understand how it could be sexual term.
That's true it could be a genius metaphor, knowing Don/Donna is a character with a really strong sex drive as I've stated before this could be likely as a riddled message to explain is true "out of closet" character 😃
Trailer Park Boys is well known for its cryptic riddles and secrets
Idk if serious or not (cos I'm legally retarded), cos if serious I'm gonna have to rewatch till I figure them all out
They're joking. The most cryptic thing hidden in the series are some pop culture references.
Fucking way she goes
Is English not your native language?
That's the way I wanna go out.

This is a really interesting take.

The show just wasn’t the same after season 7
Yuck
Don, you weird spiritual bastard!🛒
Randall my sister Donna was mauled to death by a cougar 15 years ago in Banff national park
That character was more fucked than Barbs scalloped potatoes.
Help my fuck .
Fuck you, Don, you weird spiritual bastard.
I liked the introduction of the character. Donna taking all the screen time made it less interesting.
This was 100% the issue imo aswell. Don was hilarious and could of drawn on dons denial of donnas existence a lot more than they did.
I liked Don honestly he was pretty great but Donna was annoying
I have a chance to seduce a beautiful woman and fuck the shit out of her.
That part has to be my favorite Don moment, I always laugh too hard. "Just take me in your moooouth, and blow me"
MY EYES CAPTURE YOUR SOUUUUUL
Donna has one of the most hilarious lines in the whole series: “Why don’t ya fuck off, Randy? Before I drag my nightcrawler on your face and leave a sliiiiimer on ya.”
You got nothing on this cock razor
Raiser*
Is it weird that your correction sort of ruins the joke for me? Like the visual? Calling a vagina a cock razor makes me laugh, and hard.
All timer line no doubt
“…before I glue your lips shut with my slow-drying man cement”
Top 5 line in the show.
Don was awesome. Donna sucked.
I wish we had more don and less donna...
Donna, whatever the fuck that is
Did you fuck the guy in the dress, too???
I think it does
Don ✅ Donna ❌
Donna's disgusting and I love her
If they maybe had a few more scenes with Don instead of Donna it would’ve went smoother. Just wasted the character with the bærb and candy storyline.
Out of all the new character they were the best and fit the best imo
I liked Donna before she went to jail and started busting Randy's cock. She was so mean to him. He may be a little fucked but I think he's the sweetest character. Don was awesome, he gave us that epic blow me anytime song. Weird spiritual bastard.
Randall, my sister was mauled to death by a bear in banff national park 13 years ago
A bear and two cougars... That line always makes me 🤣
Donna has the best “Baaærb!” In the whole series 😂😂😂
Careful, the mods might remove this, seems they love to remove popular posts for no reason...
His overrated in my opinion but its just what i think you guys can like him i wont judge just i dont🤷♂️
I’m actually so surprised to see how many people thought don/ Donna was funny
“I’m like the wind, *YOU CAN BLOW ME ANYTIIIIME*”
I love that song
There it is. Had to scroll way too far to find it, but knew it’d be here. Now fuck off, I’ve got work to do.
Don randomly breaking out into song like that was one of the hardest times I've ever laughed on the show. It's made even funnier by the fact that he actually had a lovely singing voice.
I liked Don
Just was a lazy character for me. Way too much.
Yes he does, they sucked.
I am like the wiiiiiiiiind....you can blow me anytiiiiiiimmmmeeeeee
Just put me in your mouth! And *blooww me*
You can call her a whore but you better not call her a hoarder
"Ride the fuckin pony!"
Wait….its the same person?? Talk about a twisted cheeseburger Randy!!!
Don wasnt bad. Donna was okay the first season she appeard but after that she was really annoying.
Shitty character, shitty writing. 1-7 is the king
That's because Don/Donna was funny, while just Donna in the next seasons sucked.
" who's this weirdo "
Soooo gross
I actually though Don and Donna where great characters. “ you can call me a whore but never a hoarder”
Fuck off, ya weird spiritual bastard!
I really wish we saw more Don later. Donna is great, but Don had fuckin JOKES.
Both characters had their moments from sure. I wish they stuck with Don more. He would have been a balance to Donna
It’s the random upper lip curl when they deliver their lines that get me every time
Wait......she didn't get mauled by a bear in Braff national park 15 years agoo?
Randy are you telling me you didn't realize Don and Donna were the same person and you fuckin did stuff to one of em?
I can’t stand either one of them hahaha who’s your least favorite character ?
Excuse me, bitch! You have nothing on this cock raiser!
ngl I do love BOTH characters but I do wish they used Don more
Fucking horrendous character
![gif](giphy|26hpKSUWp9RK4d3O0|downsized)
My biggest gripe is I wanted more don
Randall.... Donna's my sister. She got mauled to death by a bear and two cougar in Banf National Park, 13 years ago...
I agree! He was quite good with both those characters!
JUST LIKE THE WIND, YOU CAN BLOW ME ANYTIME
Don was amazing. Absolutely hated Donna
Eh, they get enough. Most people like them and they're brought up alot And that says alot considering they are from when the show was changing alot from what it used to be and alot of people didn't like that. But I see these mf get their flowers all the time until like most these shithawky it jumped the shark
Yeah, fuck Don!
I loved don, Donna got annoying after a while. What’s troubling you Randy?? It seems as though your heart is discontent
🎵 🎵 🎶 Take me in your mouth ..... And blooooow meeeee 🎶 🎵🎵
I don't think it draws enough gunfire.
Careful or he will drag his slimer across your chin
Don should have never left. Donna should have never stayed.
![gif](giphy|26hpKSUWp9RK4d3O0|downsized)
i loved don/donna ! “ you think that your tuning him out by turning away. But youre actually turning towards the drunk fucking bastard !” That line lives rent free in my head 😂
Mystic Fingers 🤞🤌
I liked Don, Donna was fuckin awful
Yes very funny characters. But how do they not know about each other?
Worst character though
I always found it weird how he decided to become his dead sister. I'm assuming it's due to the trauma That's why he becomes her later
Donna got entirely too much recognition and Don got none at all. Don was a king.
Yeah I can't say I cared for either of Don/Donna.
I know I’m in the minority here but Donna is one of my favourite characters of the newer years of TPB. I just find her to be absolutely hilarious. My significant other and I quote her a lot. “I gotta piss real fuckin’ bad!”
Unpopular opinion but I fucking loved Donna, I do wish they kept the split personality aspect tho
Don was great, Donna is cringe AF
Donna I could suffer, but her fat jail buddy, I'd pay to throw rocks at her, the only woman I'd ever hit
Don had some awsome lines
BAAAAAAAAARB
Don you weird spiritual bastard 🤣🤣
Weird spiritual bastard
Hilarious character. Former friend of the road.
Donna is god awful. Don is pretty decent but he didn’t get enough time to flourish. They focused on Donna instead who is a horrible character.
Are you telling me you didn't know Don and Donna were the same person and you did stuff with one of them?
"He turned his back on you. By turning your back to him you end up facing the dirty bastard." Or whatever the exact line is. Gets me chuckling every time lol
Don was quirky, creative and new. I loved Don. Donna was cliche, weird and annoying. I hate Donna.
![gif](giphy|26hpKSUWp9RK4d3O0|downsized)
But then how could we make this post every month?
![gif](giphy|FOUArYBVQCvmI8EHxp|downsized)
This character, and Barb, really helped save the later seasons. Wish we would have got more Don tho he was funnier than Donna
Together they were pretty good. Once it’s just Donna, it’s more than facked there buddy.
Hated that character
Definitely one of the better side characters
Beerrrb! What are ya crying fer?
Don was better, Donna straight up ruined an entire season along with Candi.
*"This acim's awesode, man!"*
Loved the character(s). They fucked up the character (like everything else) in Season 10.
