It's called "Republic of Doyle". It's a CBC show and it's shot in around our city, St. John's , Newfoundland. I think they just finished shooting season four just last month or so. I do know that there are three cars. However, I have heard two are GTO and one is a LeMans conversion. I have seen some of the shows, but it is more for the car, and not the plot, which I know can sometimes make you cry. However, most people who have seen it seems to love the scenery. We are in a city at the most easterly point of North America on an island in the Atlantic. Everything here is different than a lot of other places, including the
weather, food, music, and the dialogue............most people can't understand what we say. |

I cringe when I see cars like that in modern TV & movies; it's probably not going to end well for the car.

I never heard of the show before until about a month ago when I posted a picture of my GTO on a Pontiac Facebook page. Someone posted "Republic of Doyle" under the picture. I had no idea what he was talking about so I Googled it and found the show.
Forward to 39:30 to see what happens to the GTO. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QkteqPulTc Forward to 3:50 to hear what the writer/actor says about the car. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTdOYqeG-5s

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
