[.ca] Red Green: Stuffed and Mounted, Vol. 1

From Amazon.com:
"If women don't find you handsome," goes flannel-shirted, fix-it guy Red Green's motto, "they should at least find you handy." Well, pretty to think so. Being handy is an elusive virtue at The Red Green Show's Possum Lodge, where Red and his dweeby nephew, Harold (Patrick McKenna) and friends routinely gather to make a shambles of simple repairs, science experiments, sundry hobbies, and such wild-eyed solutions to nonexistent problems as How to Get a Badger out of Your Pants. (The latter involves a length of ventilator hose and a tray of stale hors d'oeuvres.) The eight choice episodes on this disc include the clever "The Network Deal," in which Harold's efforts to draw an American viewership to Red Green results in the casting of a blonde goddess to play Red's wife, and "The Wind-Powered Boat," featuring an extended conversation about Kenyan tiger ranches and Nylon-producing farms. You have to be there. --Tom Keogh

This Is What Red Green Is About:
If you've missed these episodes or, like me, your taped copies have gotten so worn they no longer work, buy this DVD! (and the other 4 that have been released so far). At first, I was sorta disappointed because the episodes are not in any order, you might get a first season ep followed by a tenth season epidode, then a 3rd, etc... but, no one says you have to watch them in the order they are on the DVD's... the thing is, this is the handiest way to get episodes. The 8 episodes on this dvd are: The Wind-Powered Boat, The Salt And Pepper Shakers, Maple Syrup, Fire Brigade (my favorite on the dvd), The Beef Project, The Network Deal (my least favorite of all time), and The Science Fair. I've been a fan since the first season, and have seen every episode at least 200 times over the years, Red Green got me through a lot of troubles in life, because no matter what, you can count on the guys at possom lodge to give you a laugh or two, and it's good to have these eps on DVD format. I just wish they had been released by season, instead of just, apparently, Steve Smith's favorite episodes.
