Red Green: Stuffed and Mounted, Vol. 6

Classic episodes from The Red Green Show
From Possum Lodge, home of the last real men on the planet, comes a keeper for the home video trophy case. These eight classic episodes from throughout the first decade of the PBS comedy hit provide a generous helping of lodge wit and wisdom, learned the old-fashioned way—after trying everything else first. In his famous Handyman Corner, Red offers tips for harnessing male creativity without (too often) losing digits to runaway power tools. As Red likes to say: "Whatever this is, we’ve got lots more of it." EXTRA STUFF: Special introduction to each episode by star Steve Smith, character bios and episode selection

THE EPISODES:
THE TANKS WE GET—The lodge gets giant gas tanks for a fund raiser
THE SCHOOLHOUSE PROJECT—The locals get creative to keep out city slickers
THE NEW DOCTOR—Women pursue good health; men pursue good doctors
THE PETTING ZOO—A surplus of forest animals leads to another hare-brained idea
THE SPLINTER LODGE—Unhappy with Red, some members branch out
THE MAYOR RACE—Red runs for mayor of Possum Lake
THE BATTLE CALL—The men face off against their rival lodge
WHO WANTS TO BE A SMART GUY—Dalton competes on a TV trivia show

Great example of the show over the years.

If you have never seen THE RED GREEN SHOW , it is like "Home Improvement" meets "The Outdoorsman". The show is done in stand-up comedy style as the lodge members relate to you the things that happened that day. This is broken up with filmed slapstick comedy segments , Handyman projects , strange guests , and much more.

Purists wish that these were put on disc by season, but each collection gives you a good example of the series over the years.

The video quality is only hampered by the quality of the original low budget production. For a DVD to hols so much, it is surprising that there is no digital aritfacting.

I look forward to more DVDs in the future! August 25, 2003
