The web show Just Passing Through is competing at CBC's Comedy Coup for a half-million dollars to fund a prime-time CBC show. What is it about?

Moonshine, the Maritime Mafia, strippers and hot yoga for dogs.You'll find them all--and a whole lot friggin' more--in the East Coast comedy series Just Passing Through. The hit webseries blends the spirit of old-school sitcoms like Three's Company with the edge of today's hits like The Trailer Park Boys. Terry and Parnell Gallant, rough-and-tumble "cousints" from Prince Edward Island, are heading to the Alberta oil patch to get loaded rich. When the shitbox car Grammie gave them breaks down in Toronto, they show up unannounced on their uptight cousin Owen's doorstep and swear they're "just passing through". But the family reunion Owen never asked for is the family reunion that never ends.




The episodes to date are hosted at YouTube account of showrunner and writer Jeremy Larter. I quite enjoy Just Passing Through, as a show that plays nicely, smartly, and--yes--crudely--with various stereotypes (the Island, Toronto, et cetera).

Go to Comedy Coup and support Just Passing Through. You won't regret it!
