Just wondering how everyone interpreted the video call Wilfred gave Ryan to show him Jenna and Drew ugging bumplies. Im giving it a rewatch and just wondering what yall think after seeing the whole show.. All imagination? Actual accidental video call from the dog next door? Ryan accessing spycam to watch secretly?
Hi guys! Working on a video essay about Wilfred and I’m interviewing Jason Gann tomorrow. Wanted to see if you guys had any questions you’d like answered. Maybe I can try to talk to him about those things. Anyways thanks! Bye
Having Billy Baldwin was an odd choice. It even looked confusing when Ryan recognized Bruce.
So I recently did a re-watch and have a question about the ending. I know we find out all of this was in Ryan’s head but one thing that confused me was the meeting with his dad. They talk about the cult and he shows Ryan pictures of the cult members and one of them looks like Wilfred. If Wilfred was always a figment of Ryan’s imagination how would he have known what that guy looked like to use as the man in Wilfred’s dog suit? Are we to assume that whole thing with his dad never happened?
I started rewatching Wilfred for the third time last night and totally forgot about the episode where Ryan meets the beautiful Italian girl who offers him to go to Italy with her (season one ep 12 sacrifice). I don’t think it would have worked out between them because of his mental illness and even if he “left Wilfred behind” it would take a lot more than a new country to truly let him go (considering if his vision of Wilfred is schizophrenia). But I think it could have been a great starting point for a new and possibly healthy direction in his life. Just curious on other people’s thoughts
This is my like 5th rewatch and I just noticed at the beginning of the first episode we see Dune in Ryan’s bedside table, and in episode 8 “Anger” there’s a copy of The Exorcist. There’s also the book he’s reading when he meets the Italian woman on the beach. And he and the mailman talk about Alan Moore, but can’t remember if he mentions any specific graphic novel by name.
I like when movies and tv shows do this because it reveals something about the character, not only their taste in books but even their state of mind.
I guess I’m about to watch every episode but what books should I be on the look out for?
Was Ryan dead the whole time or was it him vs his bi polar disorder?
If anyone has a link to Wilfred (Australian version) or can upload all episodes, I will happily pay
I have tried to purchase this legally for a long time, but it has disappeared from the internet
Thanks :)
Just made a sub for Jason Gann fans. It’s bare right now but hopefully in time it will be full. I personally loved Wilfred both the aus version and the us. If you a fan feel free to join. Let’s show the guy that we still love his titular character and appreciate everything that went in to making Wilfred, Wilfred. Idk if you know this but he created the character, wrote the script, filmed the first short that created Wilfred and brought a tv series to Australia back in 2007 and by 2011 had the us in his pocket for another 4 seasons. This doesn’t happen often. The us is like that asshole stepdad that won’t listen to anyone else’s ideas unless you make him think it was his first. This was quite a feat. Not only did he do all this but he created and stared in a show that broke records on one of the biggest tv networks in history! The guy is a legend! Now I know we all know he did some un favorable things(15+ years ago), But so is sitting behind a keyboard talking smack about someone you’ve never met without giving themselves a chance to 1 tell their side and 2 defend themselves.
As you may know if you finished the serires Wilfred is just in Ryan's head and hes been crazy all along and certain actions we see Wilfred do are actually Ryan's actions being perceived in his inanity blurred vision (For instance Wilfred didn't break out his neighbors window he did also the whole robbed the neighborhood thing yeh that was all Ryan not wilfred) this brings me to my question did Ryan murder the elderly person or did wilfred really just know she was dying and Ryan made all the pillow stuff up what are your thoughts?
I guess thats it, i mean i dont think hes like best friend material or anything but he seems like a nice enough guy, id bet 100 dollars if someone tried to hurt ryan hed totally have his back.
There's a lot of torrents and such for the US version, but I'm having some trouble tracking down the Australian version for download. If any of you fine people have the files I'd love to get them uploaded somewhere modern, I'm trying to fill a hole in my Jellyfin server, but I'd also love to get a torrent up for the Australian version if one doesn't exist.
Thanks!
Edit: Let me know if you need a link DM'd to you, or check 1337x. The great drought of Wilfred 2007 is now torrentable
I just binged watched Wilfred for the 1st time over the last 2 weeks. Am I the only one tht feels unsettled by the ending? Poor Ryan was crazy the whole time.
This show grapples with deep existential human problems through absurd humor and I just don't think America was thinking in those terms in 2011. In 2011 marvel movies were in there prime and the office was probably the most popular show. That said, now everything everywhere all at once was an extraordinarily popular movie, Swiss army man did ok, and bojack horseman was a popular tv show and people are seemingly more interested in this content, in my opinion. Do you think Wilfred would have been a bigger hit if it came out more recently?
It seems that Jason Gann is (finally) shooting a new TV series, and while I'm sure that it's its own separate thing, I'm not entirely convinced it's not another season of Wilfred.
He did an interview on 9News in Australia and while he never outright says that the show has anything to do with Wilfred, it's at least mildly hinted at. And Jason has been liking comments on Instagram of people asking if it's Wilfred-related. Thoughts?
Here's the video: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C8D3JN8yXmS/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
Regardless, I'm just excited to see him acting again!
So I’m currently watching S2 E9 and they are at a work meeting sitting around a conference table and Wilfred is there, but isn’t acknowledged at all. It makes me think that Wilfred is only there for Ryan in that moment because it would be weird if he is taking his neighbors dog to work. Also, the fact that nobody even acknowledges a dog in the work place makes me think there are times Ryan sees Wilfred more than just when the actual dog is around as well.
If Wilfred is just a part of Ryans mind, then this raises a question in season 3 episode 3. Ryan is babysitting Jeoffry for Kristen who is going on a date with a guy named Michael who’s a Doctor. After Ryan meets Michael, Kristen and Michael go to dinner. Wilfred later says to Ryan that Michael smelt of a womens nether regions. After the two come back from their date, Michael admits he did indeed visit a patient earlier in the night who was suffering from an infection of the nether regions.
If Wilfred is only a part of Ryan’s mind, how could Wilfred (Ryan) have known that Michael had the scent of a woman’s nether regions upon him?
I know it’s just a small loophole in the theory, but it’s really the only one I can find. Love to hear opinions, or if anyone has discovered other loopholes.
I actually just started a rewatch because I was feeling suicidal… I remembered that it all started with a suicide attempt and thought it might make me feel better ❤️🩹 My best friend is my dog that I was finally able to get 2 years ago (I was the kid that wished at every birthday for a dog and wrote Santa for a dog every year). So when I saw his picture I knew he was my dog instantly and I couldn’t ask for a better companion. I’ve attempted suicide 3 times and stayed in a psych ward twice. I’ve even OD’ed on fentanyl twice. I’m seeing a psychiatrist and a therapist finally after the mental health care system failed me over and over. I find this show very relatable and the comedy aspect can be very helpful for a good distraction.
So I remember watching the whole first season of Wilfred about 5 or 6 years ago.. I'm watching it again and pretty much every episode 1-3 is completely different.. The first episode is the same but 2 and 3 are new to me.. Am I crazy? Was I just drunk and I don't recognize the story lines/actors? I can imagine I was wrong.. but this show seems different than I remember.. I remember Wilfred's blonde owner.. but the bully sequence seems different
That was seriously funny as fuck how it took Ryan all the way to the end to recognize that the Doctor he was talking to was Robin Williams. 🤣🤣
Anyone has a free download link or knows where I can download It for free?
