The Red Green Show

The Red Green Show is mostly short talking sketches with two characters - Red Green and his nephew Harold. Both wear nothing but red and green plaid shirts and spend most all of their lives at Possum Lodge. Red has his own handyman section of the show, appropraitely titled Handyman's Corner, in which everything is made of old stuff + duct tape to create a new item that is... well, unique to say the least (eg, clothes dryer stills).

Red's friend Bill also makes frequent appearances on the show, generally to do something stupid like try to CATCH javelins instead of throwing them. Bill is the source of much comic relief on the Red Green Show.

There are a few other random sketches (word of the day, and something along the lines of Men Anonymous) most involve duct tape or Red's friends getting hurt. Overall, this is probably the only good comedy I've seen come out of Canada, not to say that Kids In the Hall isn't good but...

"If women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy."

The Red Green Show (and The New Red Green Show) is a half hour comedy program which is broadcast in Australia, Canada and the United States; worldwide well over a hundred stations including the Comedy Channel the CBC, and a wide array of PBS stations.

The setting for the show is the fictitious Possum Lake which is located in some unspecified rural area of kinda northern Canada. Possum Lake is a very small place that just barely meets the requirements for the definition of a town, with an assortment of colorful characters, most of which (come to think of it I think ALL of which) are male and by "male" I mean the sort of male who tends to be sensitive only when it's required of them, and refuse to ask for directions when they get lost out of pride and principle. The men hang out at a clubhouse called Possum Lodge.

Each show begins with the nondescript leader of the gang, Red Green (portrayed by the softspoken, dry-witted Steve Smith, entering Possum Lodge and greeting the audience. He welcomes the audience as if they're old friends who've come by for another visit, and starts to discuss the most recent events, like catching up old friends on how things have been at home while they have been away. Usually it's during Green's little soliloquy that another inhabitant of Possum Lodge walks on the stage and interrupts with some new development of what becomes the ongoing storyline for that episode. Maybe Elvis Presley has just been sighted near Possum Lake, or they're having trouble with the lodge outhouse, or the men have been trying to dig a new well, or there's a bear inside the lodge. Whatever the dilemma, Red and his friends face it head on like truly courageous, yet moderately dim-witted men, often to hysterical results.

Pat McKenna plays the role of Harold, Red Green's technogeek nephew. In the early seasons of the show, Harold was a predominant source of comic relief and worked as a foil to Red Green's straight man persona. Then Harold left Possum Lodge to seek out his fortune and returned as a moderately successful dotcom entrepreneur. Though still a geek, he was a bit more of a snappy dresser.

Also in the earlier days of the series, Rick Green played the part of Bill, an eccentric naturalist with his own theories on how the laws of physics were more cartoony guidelines than actual laws and were made to be broken. In the early seasons, there was a regular segment called Adventures With Bill where Red Green and Bill experimented with the Great Outdoors seeking out new ways to do old things and occasionally discovering by happenstance things that man was simply never meant to know. These early adventures were invariably filmed and presented in black and white. In later seasons, Bill mysteriously disappeared, so these 'adventures' featured a host of other characters doing all kinds of strange things with heavy machinery, and with Red Green offering his patented voice-over commentary.

The Red Green Show is most noteable for Red Green's regular feature, Handyman's Corner. Each episode, Red reveals a new way to take the junk in his backyard and turn it into something novel. Using the handyman's secret weapon, duct tape, Red has turned a phone booth into an elevator, a water tank into a submarine, a grandfather clock out of a canoe, a broken down car into a barbeque grill, and all kinds of other wonderfully inventive and insane ideas.

In later seasons the regular features included the Possum Lodge Word Game, which is a strange variant on the old standby Password. Other features include The Experts panel where members of the lodge answer questions from viewer mail while avoiding those three painful words for men to say, "I don't know", and a series of drug-induced nature animated short films featuring the resident Fire Marshal, Ranger Gord (played by Peter Kelleghan). Ranger Gord has been manning the local fire watch tower for the past sixteen years without any vacation time and is going just a little mad. Then there's the handyman with a past Mike Hammer. Mike's on probation, and is trying hard to break the habits of a life of criminal behavior. He's got sticky fingers though, and despite his good intentions he seems to get everything wrong. He's played by the hilarious and talented Wayne Robson. And there's many other colorful characters, but strangely enough there are rarely if ever any women on the Red Green show.

The bottom line: Red Green is what The Man Show would have been had it actually used common sense and a more good-natured sensibility towards its audience. The Red Green Show is an intelligent, amusing look at man's strengths and weaknesses, and how sometimes they're one in the same.
