If you haven’t had the pleasure of watching the award-winning comedy Schitt’s Creek, you’re seriously missing out. The Canadian series debuted in 2015 and follows the lives of the fictional Rose family as they rebuild their lives in the small town of Schitt’s Creek. Of the many quotable lines from the show, one that’s taking North America by storm as of late is “Ew, David,” uttered by Alexis Rose to her brother David whenever he does… well, just about anything. The show’s official Twitter account recently revealed that fans are getting “Ew, David” license plates and it’s amazing.

When one of us shines, all of us shine
Early last month, it was revealed that a ton of people in the U.S. and Canada were so in love with the show that they were getting EW DAVID customized license plates. When the show’s Twitter account first proclaimed this revelation on Feb. 6, it counted a total of 22 plates:
it is wild that, as far as we can tell, people in 22 provinces, territories and states in North America have some kind of #ewdavid license plate.
