Swearnet: The Movie is a 2014 Canadian black comedy film directed by Warren P. Sonoda, and starring Mike Smith, John Paul Tremblay, and Robb Wells. It follows the trio of actors for the television series Trailer Park Boys, running their uncensored Internet network. The Guinness World Records website listed the film with the record for most uses of the word "fuck" up to 935 times. The film received the NC-17 rating from the Motion Picture Association of America.[1][2][3] It was rated 18 by the British Board of Film Classification.[4]

Fed up with being censored in their post–Trailer Park Boys lives, the out of work stars/world-renowned "Swearnet", Mike Smith, Robb Wells, and John Paul Tremblay decide to start their own uncensored network on the Internet.

Wells, Tremblay, and Smith reprised their roles in the mid-credits scene.
