Canadians - can we all agree

That Boarder Security is the best show to ever come out of Canada?  I say this even in the face of Degrassi.  Boarder Security is soooooo satisfying.

I can watch border security for hours on end. Seriously.

I've never watched it.

YES!! I love that show. I want to fly out of Pearson again so I can maybe meet some of these people.

I've seen almost all of the episodes and get irrationally irritated when I see that Boarder Security is on and it's the Australian version.

We have watched many many hours of it here.

We turned it on the other night but it was an Australian version, it (the one episode we watched) seemed very tame.

For real.  What makes you feel more satisfied than watching liars and cheaters get caught!?  Maybe it's because I'm scrupulously honest on my declaration forms.

It's on right now!!  Turn on your TV!  You basically get to see all sorts of frausters get caught at the boarder - air/land/sea/mail. Delicious!

Lol, my bro talks about this show all the time!

Sam and I binge on that. We get so into it "like Ya right visiting your uncle with every possession you own I don't think so!" Or my favorite "I thought pot was legal here. I only hid it in my ass because I don't want to lose it"

I like the people who spend long bouts of time abroad and then return with a declaration sheet saying they only have $40.00 in purchases.

I love Border Security!! LOVE! I'm always honest and I have never had to pay duties. Those people are hilarious with their packaged meat "oh, you mean my skeezy partially cooked mystery meat wrapped in tinfoil that has been rotting in my suitcase for 36 hours is not allowed...?"

I feel like I would love that show. I find myself binge watching "to catch a smuggler" on Netflix.

Did you see the guy with several soggy bags of fish and chicken?? How cheap could have it possibly been to make eating it after 48 hours of travel a viable option? I mean, you got your plane ticket somehow, so maybe don't travel but buy meat from your grocer instead.

We also watch the Aussie version (on BBC Canada) and once there was this guy and I felt so bad for him. He had a previous record but he had come with his wife and children from New Zealand. They ended up not letting him in and I felt so bad, but then he was on the phone with his wife and his true colors came out and he was clearly a homicidal psycho. Good call, Border Security.
