Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

[PS94]

Ok, so, living in Canada, I CANNOT FATHOM how the Red Green show stayed on the air so long...

I think I understand now....Just like Nickelback, Celine Dion, and Moosehead Beer, Canadians cannot stand it....But, somehow, our neighbours south of the border enjoy it....I can't read iBoats one day without a red green reference..

Ugh.

Who actually likes any of the above?

Can't say much about those, but I like Corner Gas & Trailer Park Boys.

Yeah TPB is funny...Red Green did make a convertible powered by a garage door opener

BTW I am a big fan of Labatt's is that ok

Re: Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

Lol, I used to hate Corner Gas, Mainky because I can't stand Brent Butt.. However, now that the show is off the Air, I love it....

TPB - The old ones, (read, low budget) were awesome. Boom mike guys helping with heists, show techs getting shot....Classic...

Red Green is just a northern version of a good ol' boy southern redneck.

That's why I like him.

Oh no, we've got the southern rednecks up here too(buck teeth, mullets, 15" of lift on their trucks)....red green is just an odd one..

Don't know about the location, but I think it's the spirit he has that makes him so popular... lol, we all have some 'wild' ideas at times, just most of us don't make them public. That, and/or, he reminds us of some family member/neighbor and makes for some good entertainment. It's like sitting at the ramp just waiting to see what happens next

Yeah I learned this when I got to Toronto and saw TPB for the first time. I called my wife and told her about it she thought I was crazy. Instead of going out, I stayed in the hotel that night and watched the marathon! I was dying laughing.

Hey, don't knock Red Green. With a roll or 2 of duct tape and a 3 lb ball peen hammer BussStPoint will be back in his slightly mashed wheels shortly.

Re: Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

I must be the odd Canadian out, I like Red Green, Nickelback and Moosehead beer. (well, I will drink it, not my first pick)

Re: Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

OMG I love Trailer Park Boys.

I like Red Green too but like all "sketch" comedy shows there's probably more losers than winners.

Re: Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

Problem is PS94, you are expecting Red Green to be a comedy...
when it is actually a Fantasy
Red Green lives the fantasy life we all would love.
He lives on the lake at a nice lodge, tinkers with gizmos and machines all day, has a social circle that entertains him, an understanding wife....

hang on.... that's my life.

keep your stick on the ice...

I am not Canadian, but I thoroughly enjoy Canada and most things Candaian. Except Celion Dion.

I hear Vegas want's her back for a few more years, so you are stuck with her!!!

The Red Green Show is kind of like the flu; not everybody gets it.

Re: Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

I like Red Green and Nickleback, Moosehead is OK but I'd rather drink Molson or Labatts. Please take Celine back.
I also liked Bod and Doug Mckensie in The Great White North skits on SNL, espicially their version of the 12 days of Christmas.

I got in huge trouble for paintin' a white stripe on our black dog. He didn't like the cape either.

Re: Red Green Show - I think I understand now..

G'day, eh! Like, those hosers Bob & Doug were from SCTV, not SNL.

When I grow up (yeah, right) I want to be Red Green!
