�Pitter, Patter� Why LETTERKENNY is ending? FINAL SEASON now on SBS On Demand
Well that�s a Texas sized 10-4, the final season of Letterkenny is now on SBS On Demand. Find out why the hallmark show is coming to an end.
We�ve known for a little a while at TV Blackbox that the new Season 12 of Letterkenny was coming to SBS On Demand post-boxing day. Letterkenny has had a history of dropping a new season every year around Boxing Day.
To our surprise though, SBS On Demand premiered it as the �Final Season�.

SBS On Demand�s listing of the new Letterkenny season said:
�All good things must come to an end, eh? Break out the maple leaf handkerchiefs to bid farewell to the residents of Letterkenny, Ontario.�
Just before Christmas, Letterkenny creator Jared Keeso and Variety Magazine have announced that Season 12 will be the final season of the hit show Letterkenny, a Canadian treasure which has also struck a cord with many Australians.
Keeso does not do many interviews but he did an exclusive interview with the official Letterkenny fan podcast, The Produce Stand and Bell Media.
�I think we�ve done everything that we can do on that show,� replied Keeso, who plays lead character Wayne.
�I�ve written, or had a hand in, writing all 81 episodes. I�m always looking for something new and exciting to do with the characters, a new opportunity to develop them, to help the audience understand them just a little bit better. And it gets tough around the 50 mark, and it gets really tough around the 70 mark. I guess I decided at the 80 mark that that was it.�
The final season runs a different pace to the earlier ones. For a show with a groundhog-day mentality and time does not necessarily pass � even though the season do � there�s a strong story arch in this final season.
Dary is questioning his identity as a long-standing hick, Squirrelly Dan�s relationship with a Mennonite is getting that bit more serious. After a trip to Mexico, Katy still wishes she was sipping Margaritas along the Mexican Gulf. Wayne�s who is a stickler for change is bewildered why everyone is moving on even though his �sweetie� Rosie is talking him into hanging up his title as the toughest guy in Letterkenny.
Letterkenny is a show to watch with the captions on as these fast-talking small-town Canadian�s roast each other and get up to all kinds of shenanigans but inside jokes asides, it resonates with anyone who�s ever lived in a small town. It falls into the Seinfeld genre of shows (about nothing) but it�s loyal and savage characters quickly find their way into your heart.
After 12 seasons 74 episodes and 5 holiday specials, Letterkenny is over and out.
Even though the show has wrapped, the Letterkenny universe will continue with its spinoff Shoresy, with two seasons � and a third currently in production � also available on SBS, with ads.
Some seasons Letterkenny are also available ad and ad-free on Binge.
All 12 seasons of Letterkenny and 2 seasons of Shoresy now available on SBS on Demand.
