The Red Green Show

[Whitworth]

Don't know how many of you guys know about this TV show but I found it a few weeks ago and it's hysterically good clean outdoor man hunting and fishing humor at Possum Lake Lodge. I watch it on YOUTUBE. It was filmed in Canada with 300 episodes over 15 seasons starting in 1991 or 92. Lots of sight gags and features Red's dry curmudgeonly wit combined with his do-it-yourself projects involving lots of duck (it is duck) tape. One other member has started watching after I mentioned it in a post. Says he's been getting a good comic relief. Check it out sometime if you need some comic relief. I've even got the wife watching it with me .

Possum Lodge is the place to be....

"I'm a man, but I can change--if I have to, I guess..."

Watch the episode where he makes a cabin cruiser out of a few thousand plastic soda-pop bottles, or turns an outboard motor into a food mixer....

I started watching it sometime near the end of the first season. It was carried on a local PBS station. Steve Smith is a comic genius. His nephew is hilarious as well. The best part for me is that some of his ideas aren’t all that crazy. I understand Smith has a one man stand up comedy show based on Red Green. Thanks for sharing.

I work with the spitting image of his nephew, Harold. We made him watch the show, he got mad at us.

Sadly, the show was retired a few years ago with a few live shows remaining. I don't think they're doing live shows anymore but they did have an active web sight and I told my wife I was going to get me a pair of those nifty suspenders. And take the "pledge", she laughed but I was serious! LOL

Don’t forget Ranger Gord and his cartoons!

I hadn't seen it in a long time, I forgot how funny it is! We just picked a random episode and it had us cracking up. Thanks for the tip!

I love that show. I first watched it while at my in-laws' place "up north" in mid-Michigan farm country. It could have been filmed down the road from them.

@Whitworth introduced me to this show. Great temporary escape from the world.
My fav so far is drive thru revenge.
Thanks @Whitworth

I first saw it about 20 years ago. It was on late night after the news. I had fallen asleep watching TV and woke up in the middle of a show, the one where he made a hot air balloon out of garbage bags, a lawn chair and of course duck tape. Imagine being half asleep and seeing something like that. I've been a fan ever since.

Watched it back in the 90s, wife and I loved it. May have to revisit it, was just good clean fun.

Watched the 'Red Green Show' many years ago, when it was done before a live audience. It was on a PBS station. And yes, it was probably the funniest/best show around. As far as I know, you can still go to their website and order merchandise.

I used to watch that show years ago. He was the ultimate redneck engineer.

Keep yer stick on the ice...

 

[Fishsqueezer]

Great show. The wife says it is like going to one of my family gatherings!!

 

[Splitear]

I haven't watched it for a while, but my family used to watch it together regularly. A lot of great humor in that show.

One of the all time greatest tv shows. Been a fan for many years
