** Most notable when the hockey team finds Shoresy naked in the showers and he begins trading barbs with Jonesy and Reilly; it's fairly obvious that Mark Forward is doing his damnedest not to start cracking up at the antics between the three. Andrew Herr (Jonesy) himself can't stifle a chuckle in one of his lines.
** When Noah Dyck shows up in season 8 to ask the guys with help on his farm, a conversation filled to the brim with dick jokes and double entendres, Jonathan Torrens is clearly struggling to avoid laughing. He's only partially successful.
