Private Notes
To me, technology is a subversive plot by all the geeks of the world to complicate our lives to the point where we become as useless as they are. Man's basic needs are food, clothing and shelter. Not food, clothing, shelter and a 600MZ CPU with 128 megs of RAM and a 32-gigabyte hard drive. I wish they'd just leave us all alone. If life is too simple for you, get married.
Up here at Possum Lodge, we have our own rules about technology: "If you're standing in a puddle, don't touch anything that hums," and "Don't trust anything that has no moving parts. Especially if it's a relative." But I decided to bend our rules a bit when I made this DVD because it gave me a chance to use the Handyman's Secret Weapon -- Duct Tape -- and it gives you a chance to get a new Red Green show you won't be embarrassed to display on your video shelf because the edge is so small, no one will be able to tell what it is! So grab a cold beverage, your DVD remote, and go nuts. I did.
The men reminisce about their time at the Lodge.
This behind-the-scenes special features cast members musing over public television's beloved "The Red Green Show," the wacky sketch series revolving around the wit and wisdom of outdoorsman, handyman and populist philosopher Red Green (Steve Smith). Backstage anecdotes, rare outtakes and cast commentary shed light on the smart writing and spot-on acting that helped make this unlikely show such a long-running success.
To save the lodge, Red and Harold take a wild road trip with a giant duct tape goose.
The Canadian handyman Red Green (Smith) and all of his pals at the Possum Lodge share their misguided parenting tips, gained the hard way, through countless mistakes. Armed with a tool belt and a roll of duct tape, Red expounds some hilarious, potentially harmful pointers, including how to build an entire set of girl's bedroom furniture from used tires, as well as how to prevent your children from turning out like you. After viewing this, it'll be hard to imagine raising children without Red.
