Rogers is down. Had to read a shampoo bottle while sitting on the toilet like a chump. Not gonna lie, all these years later, the bottle still holds up.

It was announced today that the current season of #kimsconvenience will be our last and we will not make a season 6. It’s a bittersweet end to one of the greatest experiences of my life. I’m so proud of what we’ve done and want to reflect and thank those who made it possible. ❤️

On a walk to the park with my 4 year old today. We pass by a convenience store. 4 year old: Dad, can we go into the Kim’s Convenience store? It then occurs to me that in his world, all convenience stores are Kim’s Convenience. 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️ #KimsConvenience

This is the first season we’ve watched #KimsConvenience together as a family, my wife and 2 little boys. It’s been an absolute joy hearing them laugh. Tonight my 7 year old was laughing, looks over at me and says “you’re doing good tonight dad”. I’ll cherish this forever. ❤️

It’s not just about “keeping kids in classrooms”. It should be about the teachers and educational support workers that make those rooms special. A classroom is a room. But great teachers, those people change lives. If you care about kids, support and pay teachers fairly. ❤️

There’s a display up at my sons school for Asian Heritage Month with “InspirASIANal” Canadians. My son told me I was on it, which is super cool! Then his teacher emails me this photo saying my son insisted on being the one who stapled up my bio. 😭😭😭😭 This one means a lot. ❤️

Calgary non-profits, this guy is the worst. Please stop taking his money. This, along with many of his comments, are terrible and offensive. Going forward I'm no longer emceeing/hosting events run by any organizations still receiving money from or are working with him.

“I’m sorry. But also not sorry, but kind of sorry, and I really want to emphasize how sorry I am, but not for my apology earlier, but for sure my apology now, which I’m not sorry for, and for that, I am truly sorry…but not, because I’m sorry.” - Jason Kenney September 15, 2021

Drinking game for tomorrow’s expected Covid Alberta announcement: - Drink when blames the public for not taking their personal responsibility seriously. - Drink when when he blames Trudeau for not doing enough. - Drink when he blames Trudeau for interfering.

I’ve literally spent thousands of hours at comedy venues, and am constantly surrounded by people telling jokes and I’ve NEVER heard this “joke”. I’m legit genuinely concerned that Jason Kenney, the Premier of Alberta, is just chilling with people who say this kind of stuff.

We were the little show that could. Based on a fringe fest play that major theatres passed on. Ins Choi took this from an idea, to the stage, and w/ Kevin White to the TV screen. Few gave us a chance but we were a breakout hit. Thank you Ins and Kevin for your ideas and stories.

It’s here! The 5th season of Kim’s Convenience is now available on Netflix 🇺🇸! This season is so special, and possibly my favourite one. Everyone stepped up to make it, and it has so much heart and comedy. Binge away! 🦃🦃🌮 PS. It’s on CBC Gem in 🇨🇦 for free. #KimsConvenience

You have failed the people of Alberta. You’ve consistently made wrong decisions in this health crisis, and racist comments like these are a reminder of why you are unfit to lead Alberta .

I'm in Calgary filming a project, so I got to see my parents for the first time in 5 months. I've missed them so much. I walked into their house and was greeted with this for lunch. Well, I guess it's time I move back in with my parents. #springrolls

Candy Palmater 🍭 Dec 4, 1968 - Dec 25,2021 Candy was a gift to comedy. She was smart, hilarious, fearless, kind, just a total badass. Sending all my love to her family and friends. ❤️ I snapped this on her 1st day on set. She was endlessly cool. I’m gonna miss her so much. ❤️

The show took a group of talented theatre actors, improv comedians, and artists and turned them into household names. The show allowed us to grow and breath life to these stories. Thank you to Ivan, Alex, Sandra, and for supporting us and setting us up for success.

PS. Anyone who knows comedy in 🇨🇦 knows the most common Canadian jokes are about: 1. Degrassi 2. Poutine or Tim Hortons 3. Cold weather 4. How we like to say “eh” and “aboot” 5. Jason Kenneys track record as Premier

As we head into the series finale of #KimsConvenience I want to reflect and thank people I’ve had the honour of working with. I’m so going to miss working with my Handy Squad. Days filled with laughter, pranks, and sandwiches. I loved making comedy with each of you. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I literally just witnessed a officer shout “go back to your country” because they were confused at the crosswalk. To which two white dudes then shouted “amen, go back to where you fucking came from.” THIS IS NOT MY CANADA!

Two reasons why March 4th is one of my favourite days of the year. Happy Birthday to my little Kings! ❤️ *yes, both boys, same birthday. *yes, my wife and I like to get busy the same time of year. 😂 *yes, I’m aware of what balloon numbers we need for next year. 😂😂

A sad and disappointing reminder that a movie about the American dream, set in America, starring an American, directed by an American, and produced by an American company, is somehow foreign. #Minari

The parents have arrived and did not disappoint. Yes, they are here for 3 days. Yes, that’s the fourth pots and pans set they’ve brought for us this year. Yes, that cooler is filled with spring rolls and Vietnamese subs. I ❤️ them so much!

There are six more episodes this season. This 5th season meant a lot, and is possibly our best work. We’re going out on a high note and with our heads up high. From the bottom of my ❤️, thank you! One last time, #okseeyou! 🦃🦃🌮

It’s getting serious Alberta and means business. I hear he might shut down “Friends” trivia night by 9pm every second Thursday of the month if y’all don’t take your personal responsibility seriously.

I brought my dad down to the set for the 1st time today. He’s a quiet guy but couldn’t stop smiling and looking around in amazement. He told me he was proud of me and knew how hard I was working. I’m going to go cry alone in the bathroom now. #KimsConvenience #okseeyou

I had to run an errand and my parents dropped a sneak attack and left me Spring Rolls (Cha Gio), Sugar Cane Shrimp (Chao Tom), and a huge pack of paper towels while I was gone! I feel like a King! ❤️ #asianparents

My 3 yr old loves using the word butt at dinner. We’re working on it. Then tonight at dinner. 3yr: pizza on my butt! Me: awe buddy, we aren’t using that word at the dinner table. Please apologize to the table. 3yr: Sorry table. Owned by my 3 yr old. Kids a comedy legend.

Hey Cynthia, you saw a dad post a pic of some arts and crafts he was excited to do w/ his kids and felt the need to criticize and judge. Think about that. In a world with so many negative things, you felt the need to put down someone chilling with his kids and colouring. 😢

It’s called not entertaining your kids 24/7, and sending them outside to play without buying environmentally unfriendly crap from $ store.

Came home from a long day of work and found this in the fridge. As a kid, my dad would get me these Chinese Mooncakes as a treat, and I LOVED it! He came by earlier in the day to leave this for me. Felt like a kid again eating this. Thanks dad! ❤️🥮

To our writers, thank you for creating and crafting these stories. You helped find our voices, you got to know us and you wrote to our strengths. Without you we’d have no sneak attacks, shan-nanogins, ddongjeems, and 🦃🦃🌮s. Thank you for every script, every joke, each word ❤️.
