Corner Gas	comment	A Sitcom set in the Saskatchewan town of Dog River, Corner Gas follows the lives of the town's residents: Brent, the owner of the titular establishment, his parents Oscar and Emma, his assistant Wanda, his friend Hank, restaurant owner Lacey, and local police officers Davis and Karen.Known for its sly sense of humour, sharp writing, and especially notable for being authentic (actor/writer Brent Butt grew up in small-town Saskatchewan), Corner Gas was eventually brought to a close after its sixth season to allow the show to go out at the top of its game (a move which the cast and crew supported).Another notable aspect about the series is its wide range of cameos: from two Canadian prime ministers, two premiers of Saskatchewan and one mayor of Regina to Stanley Cup. It seems like Dog River is the most popular place in the country.The series launched in Canada on CTV and The Comedy Network in 2004. It was picked up for syndication by WGN America in the United States in 2007. It ended in April 2009.In 2014, a feature film adaptation titled Corner Gas: The Movie was funded using Kickstarter and shown in Canadian theatres for a limited five-day engagement starting on December 3 of the same year, with TV airings and a DVD/Blu-Ray release later that month.In December 2016, an animated revival titled simply Corner Gas Animated was announced, which began broadcasting on The Comedy Network in April 2018. Most of the original main cast and crew have returned, with the exception of Janet Wright (Emma), who passed away in 2016.All seasons of the original, the animated series, and the movie can be streamed in Canada on the CTV app and on Crave, and in the United States for free on Freevee.

However when he discovers that things can also smell bad, he wants to lose it again. He ends up compromising by wearing cologne.

Corner Gas / int_10dcbe05	type	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other
Corner Gas / int_10dcbe05	comment	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Oscar and Emma. Especially the entire sugar bowl lid dispute where Oscar apologizes with the amethyst jewelry gift. Two other really good examples come from the episode where Oscar attempts to go to a resort with Emma, but it turns out to be a mediocre motel, and they bond on the car ride home, and in the episode where they attempt to get married, and Lacey, thinking that Oscar is illiterate, reads aloud the love letter he wrote for Emma. The look on her face says it all. Other episodes show that they go crazy without bickering with each other all the time, presumably because they're so used to it. When Oscar is absent because he's helping out at Corner Gas, Emma Goes Mad from the Isolation and tries to get Oscar back because "his weirdness keeps me sane". When Emma hears that bickering drove another couple to divorce and resolves to be nicer to Oscar, he gets freaked out by her uncharacteristic behaviour and becomes a Stalker with a Crush towards Wanda because she insults him.

After revelling in it for a while, he realizes that it's not all upside, such as when he keeps losing at poker and tries to quit for the night, but his buddies make fun of him and say he has no excuse not to keep playing if his wife isn't forbidding him. Eventually he steals the MP3 player and smashes it with a hammer.

Corner Gas / int_13b3655d	comment	Geographic Flexibility: Residents of Dog River, Saskatchewan often refer to (and drive to) "the city" but it's unclear whether it's Saskatoon or Regina they're going to. In some cases Regina is implied, but in one case Moose Jaw is mentioned explicitly, i.e., "You went to Moose Jaw for a morning swim?" The show also subverts the trope, often having a character declare emphatically that Dog River doesn't have an item that many sitcom towns tend to have for story convenience. For example, the above-mentioned "morning swim" comment was the result of Brent pretending that his case of pink eye was the result of taking a dip in an over-chlorinated pool, but Hank and Wanda point out that there's not a swimming pool anywhere in Dog River. Dog River is based on series creator Brent Butt's hometown of Tisdale, north of Saskatoon.

Corner Gas / int_14ed6ab7	type	Does This Remind You of Anything?
Corner Gas / int_14ed6ab7	comment	Does This Remind You of Anything?: Davis and Brent's competition over who has the smaller cellphone resembles a competition over who has the bigger penis, with frequent phrasing to match it. Fittingly, they go back to the usual Bigger Is Better train of thought appropriate for such an allegory by the end of the episode after Lacey mocks their small cellphones as being girly and are seen using the kind of old brick-like cellphones that were used for the Status Cellphone trope. From the same episode, Oscar's addiction to the Claw game is portrayed like alcoholism or a gambling addiction. In another episode, Emma discovering that Karen was the one to cook the meal supposedly cooked by Oscar is treated as if the two parties had been having an affair. In an episode where Brent starts hanging out with Karen at the gas station, Hank starts to feel rejected and tries hanging out with Davis instead. The whole situation is treated like Hank got dumped and is dating someone new. He even gets nervous hanging out with Davis and says it's because he's on the rebound.

Brent promises to make them the same, which he does by making the ladies room dirtier to match the men's room.

It doesn't work, and Cecil tells Oscar to just use the dynamite and blow up the barn. Oscar yells back to Hank "Cecil says not to bother with the tractor. He says we should just blow it up!" Due to Oscar's poor word choice, Hank rigs his dynamite to the tractor instead of the barn, disappointing the large crowd that had gathered to watch the barn explode. From the beginning of the same episode, when Cecil is asking Hank to tear down the 60-year-old barn, he only refers to the barn as "she" and "her". Hank thinks Cecil wants him to kill the cow standing in front of the barn, which makes him promise that he'll be done by tomorrow.

In the episode "World's Biggest Thing", the town gets the idea to make its own biggest object. Unfortunately, while out of ideas, Fitzy's grandmother's suggestion for a hoe (the garden tool) becomes predominant because no one wants to mention this Fitzy's grandmother, or are simply oblivious to it. In "Slow Pitch", Emma is shopping at the gas station and Hank starts tossing her cans of soup around to test his new baseball glove. She finally snaps, "Stop playing with my cans!"

Corner Gas / int_20a18a93	comment	I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham: One episode features Lacey getting Brent, Oscar, and Emma hooked on various expensive food and drink. Sometimes it is a food they haven't tried before ("To be honest, I'm not really big on X."), and sometimes it is a more expensive version of something they already enjoyed, and were unable to go back to after trying the more expensive version because their standards had been raised ("I've been bumped up to a new X bracket!"). To get revenge on Lacey they invite her to brunch with lots of expensive and hard-to-make food, but she shows up late and they eat everything before she arrives. She ends up eating some leftover meatloaf and getting hooked on that, much to the Leroys' annoyance, as it's the cheapest, easiest thing they know how to make. Of course, she still falls victim to this trope in the end, as Hank gives her a fancy pen with expensive refills, and she is unable to go back to ballpoint pens because of how smoothly it writes.

Brent asks Lacey to identify a song by poorly making guitar sounds with his mouth. Lacey asks "How can anyone identify a song just from that?" but both Wanda and Hank immediately recognize it. In an episode where Lacey wants to start a Pilates class, at least 3 other characters ask her why she'd start a class named after the guy who killed Jesus.

After Oscar finds a pair of pants on the side of the road and decides to keep them (to everyone else's revulsion), Emma throws them and several other pieces of his found garbage out the car window. The episode ends with another old man finding them and deciding to keep them, using the exact same line as Oscar. "Look at this. A perfectly good pair of pants."

By the end of the live-action show's run, VHS was pretty much a completely obsolete format in real life, all the characters watch movies on DVDs, and Oscar at least knows how to program a VCR to record a show. In another first season episode, "Cell Phone", the titular technology is still being treated as somewhat of a novelty, at least in rural Saskatchewan; in real life and in the show, things changed very quickly. In an in-universe example, Oscar apparently thinks digital clocks still cost $800.

Karen invokes this for Self-Deprecation when Oscar asks what qualifies her to judge a jam contest: When Brent draws cartoons for Lacey's coffee shop newspaper, Karen and Davis get offended at a cartoon about two cops passing by a maternity ward, saying "Let's skip these, they're the day-olds". They invokedinterpret it as a personal attack on them, and confront Brent, who insists it doesn't mean anything and is confused about why they are so mad. During the talent show in "Cousin Carl", Davis does a ventriloquist act that makes fun of Karen, so she gets a male puppet wearing a police uniform and says in a dopey voice, "Hello, I'm Sergeant Davis. I like to eat dooonuts."

Throughout the episode, whenever somebody mentions how long it's been since New Year's, they just make random mouth movements while a deadpan male voiceover says "SIX MONTHS".

Windshield wiper fluid. It's supposed to be blue!!! This one isn't just limited to Dog River, as somebody from another town mentions that they also don't like the red wiper fluid, but put up with it because it's cheaper. Meanwhile, the cheaper price of the red fluid is actually the main reason people from Dog River hate it, because they think that because it's so cheap, it probably doesn't even work. You do not mock the Yield sign! "You know how I feel about CFL jokes." In "All That and a Bag of Chips", Karen accidentally leaves The Ruby without paying for a muffin and the rest of the town starts acting like she's a kleptomaniac or a hardened criminal. The scandal even makes the front page of the local paper. According to Brent, after someone started a macramÃ© class in Dog River, several people picketed the class because "they said it was a waste of string." Whenever Lacey makes a change at The Ruby, even something minor like buying new water pitchers or switching from Equal to Sugar Twin, the townspeople freak out and act like it's a major upheaval in their lives. Davis was the first one to freak out about the Sugar Twin, and he uses regular sugar!

Karen is a very good cook, and can do Lacey's job better than she can. In universe, Lacey's Magnum Opus was the Ruby Club. It was so good that it was all that anybody ever ordered, to the point that Lacey had them taken off the menu just so that she could actually make something else for a change. Emma had an "enchanted" potato bowl that made any potatoes served in it taste delicious. Wanda accidentally breaks it and desperately searches for a replacement to avoid Emma's wrath. They turn out to be really cheap on eBay. Soon everyone in town has one or more, and yes, they all work.

When confronted with a badly-spelled newspaper headline (which reads "HANK IS PHYCIC"), Wanda dryly cracks a joke about buying a spellchecker. Brent then follows this up by saying that he's going to continue reading, and that the story is "contunied on page 30". In another episode, Karen says that the criminal Davis caught was barely a thief. Cue the Spinning Paper, which inverts two letters in "Cop Nabs Barely Thief". Davis points out the thief stole a truckload of barley. Plus he stole the truck.

They plot a revenge brunch to get her addicted to other expensive foods in turn, but Lacey shows up after they've already eaten everything and all they have to serve her is some leftover meatloaf from a previous meal. Lacey becomes addicted to the meatloaf, which is the cheapest, easiest thing they know how to make. Hank then tries to gift the Leroys some expensive chocolate, since he heard they've been into fancy food lately, but they refuse the gift because they don't want to become addicted to the chocolate too.

Corner Gas / int_8504b817	comment	Where the Hell Is Springfield?: The exact location of Dog River, Saskatchewan is never revealed, though it's said to be "sixty clicks [kilometres] from nowhere" and when characters refer to or drive to "the city" both Saskatoon and Regina are apparently close enough to qualify. Word of God says that "the city" is Regina. (In several episodes in which characters are shown going to "the city", the location is clearly Regina.) Some of the locations in the show are actual businesses in Rouleau, Saskatchewan (the gas station isn't, but the bar is), which is about 40 kilometres southwest of Regina and about 200 km south of Saskatoon. In addition to location filming being done in Rouleau, the studio space (which contained the Ruby set among others) was in Regina, making it much easier to film "city" scenes there for convenience. One episode has Oscar driving about 45 minutes to Weyburn, which is about the same time it takes to drive there from Rouleau. A couple of episodes suggest itâ€™s fairly close to Moose Jaw, which is about the same distance from Rouleau by car as Regina is. Season 1â€™s â€œOh Baby!â€� has Wanda stay overnight in Saskatoon for a dentist appointment in the morning, suggesting Dog River is just a little too far away to just drive over the same day conveniently.

Exploited by Emma in "TV Free Dog River": "Gopher It" shows us that this rivalry is entirely one-sided. Although since the whole episode is one long Imagine Spot by Hank, we don't know that this is true until The Movie.. Lacey exploits this when a stand-up comedian who stole a story from Brent the last time he was in town is about to go on stage. She tells him that this is Wullerton and that everybody here hates Dog River, so he praises Wullerton and insults Dog River in his act, getting him booed off the stage.

In "Friend Of A Friend," Brent asks Wanda if his hands are dirty and she says, "Well, we're none of us innocent." Brent was literally asking if his hands were dirty because Lacey's rude friend had just insulted his hygiene. From "Key To The Future": In "Pilates Twist," Wanda asks Brent what he has in a bag and Brent says, "Coffin nails." Wanda thinks he means cigarettes, but Brent means actual coffin nails (he bought them for Oscar, who was trying to build a coffin in the basement). In "Lost And Found," Brent tells Wanda that Hank has some fencing to do, "Not the skinny sword kind of fencing." Wanda takes this to mean that Hank is going to buy some stolen goods. Brent actually meant that Hank needed to repair a fence on his cousin's farm.

Oscar blames this on Emma because she was the one who told him to get rid of the leaves. Speaking of Oscar and fire, when Brent needs someone to watch the gas station, Oscar offers his services since he ran the place for 37 years. Brent remarks that in that time there were 7 fires, of which Oscar claims most were not his fault. Later, when Oscar is watching the station by himself, he accidentally sets a small fire while fooling around with a lighter, and still claims that it's not his fault.

In the season three episode "Merry Gasmas", Wanda asks Brent if he wants to see what she got Tanner for Christmas. Brent immediately says, "Is it something hard he can throw at my head?" In "Hero Sandwich," Hank asks Brent to loan him some cash and Brent says, "Is that like your official greeting now?" A few episodes later in "Air Show", Brent is the one who needs money. He asks Hank if he can borrow 20 bucks and Hank replies, "Is this like your official greeting now?" with a big smile on his face. In "Cable Excess" from season 5, Lacey reminisces about watching the fireplace on TV at Christmas time as a kid. In "No Time Like the Presents" from later in season 5, Emma is buying Christmas gifts for everyone in the summer. It flashes forward to the ensuing Christmas, where Emma is about to hand everyone their gift. Lacey has to be called away from the floor... where she is sitting and watching the fireplace on TV. In the pilot episode, the Howler writes a disparaging article about Lacey and Hank suggests that she get revenge by egging the newspaper office (and also throwing a few watermelons because "they make a big splat"). In "Dog River Dave," Hank and Oscar pelt a radio DJ with eggs because he had been making fun of Brent on the air. In "Cable Excess," Hank confesses to Brent that he egged a cable van and Brent says, "What is it with you and egging things?"

One exception is Mayor Fitzy Fitzgerald; there is no such place as Fitzgerald, Saskatchewan.

A variation: Brent is at the gas station when a friend tells him that he may own an antique worth quite a bit of money. Immediately, the classic (cha-ching!) noise is heard—then Brent glances down and closes the cash register, commenting that he needs to get it fixed to stop it from popping open at random. Later, at an antiques shop, the man at the counter confirms that they have a valuable antique, and the (cha-ching!) is heard again; the antiques dealer closes his register, and Brent says, "Hey, mine does the same thing!"

Corner Gas / int_ad497a2	comment	What Were They Selling Again?: "Hook, Line and Sinker" sees Brent and Lacey make up signs next to the highway for advertising their establishments, but fail to agree on a sign and pretty immediately start insulting each other more and more on the sign instead eventually without even mentioning either of their businesses at all. However, this gives them more customers as people driving by want to see they'll put up next. After figuring this out and trying to take advantage of it, their next sign utterly fails until they replace it with "Karen slept with Hank".

Corner Gas / int_ad641426	type	Trademark Favorite Food
Corner Gas / int_ad641426	comment	Trademark Favorite Food: Chili cheese dogs for Brent; he can easily pack away several per day. Brent Butt loves chili cheese dogs in real life, and claims he wrote them into the show to give himself an excuse to eat them. One of the official episode guide books even includes a recipe for the chili the props department put on the dogs (the key ingredient is canned condensed tomato soup). Brentâ€™s favourite drink at the bar (again, like that of his actor and creator) is rye and water. Both Brents are whiskey enthusiasts in general, with the fictional Brent having hidden away a bottle of 20-year-old scotch at age 20 with the intention of drinking it on his 40th birthday. Laceyâ€™s drink of choice is red wine. Most of the other characters are drinking Molson Old-Style Pilsner when theyâ€™re at the bar, it being one of the most popular beers in Saskatchewan. Wanda is often seen eating ropes of red licorice, which is a favourite of actress Nancy Robertson in real life; in the season 6 episode â€œAmerican Resolutionâ€�, she resolves to stop eating it on New Years Eve, and six months later sheâ€™s hallucinating the jar of it at Corner Gas begging her to eat from it. Hank is fond of Pop Rocks.

Corner Gas / int_b707726f	comment	Hypocritical Humor: A particularly notable example is when it becomes a plot event—planning to go to a comic book convention to get one signed by a comic book artist, Brent doesn't tell Hank about, fearing he'll be 'a boob' there. Naturally, Hank does find out, and plans to do an impression of a character amongst other things there when meeting the artist. Brent specifically tells him not do a number of things... and immediately starts stuttering and doing the impression, forgets to get his book signed, and spills coffee on the artist after trying again. The two spend the rest of the episode trying to get it signed. Another example... A Meta example of hypocritical humor: Brent and Wanda are having a discussion about substance vs. production values, and the boom mic falls into the middle of the shot and thunks Wanda on the head. Karen locks her keys in the trunk of the police cruiser and Davis spends a great deal of time lecturing her about how stupid and irresponsible this was. When Hank fixes the trunk release and the trunk pops open, it turns out that Davis had locked his keys in there as well. In "Security Cam", Wanda comments to Karen that Brent never does any work at the gas station "unless drinking coffee and playing games with your belly is considered work." Wanda, of course, spends the majority of her workdays hanging out at The Ruby, reading, doing crossword puzzles and playing Solitaire. Also:

Likewise, the town's only two police officers are rarely seen off-duty, although they don't do much to begin with. The final episode epilogue shows that Wanda eventually gets a degree in physics and uses it to negotiate a small salary raise from Brent. When Brent and the others discuss their phobias and fears, Wanda denies having one until the end of the episode where she has to take the garbage out to the dumpster. The camera shifts to an uncomfortable trembling view and Wanda being stricken with fear, showing she has agoraphobia.

The combined liquor and insurance store is a real feature of the town of Rouleau where the show is filmed; since the government of Saskatchewan is in the business of selling both things and the town has limited infrastructure due to its size, itâ€™s not actually that weird for one store to sell both.

At the end of the episode, Emma finally manages to hit a ball after failing to during the entire game (and several hours of trying after the game). We then see Fitzy's Grandma sitting in her house next to two windows, one of which is the broken window from earlier. The ball crashes through the other one.

Davis reveals that he had told Brent about it many times, but he just wasn't playing attention. Brent vows to be more perceptive to the people around him, and as a result ends up saying unintentionally hurtful things that make people think he is a "monster", so he goes back to being completely ignorant of everyone around him.

This includes the table hockey game being a 1972 edition, the first four games being played at Oscar and Emma's house while the second four are played in the police station, Game 3 ending in a tie (to everyone's collective amazement), Brent losing Game 4 and being booed by the "home audience" and giving a speech which liberally quotes Phil Esposito's reaction to the booing at Game 4 in the Summit Series, and Brent having to win the last three games to salvage a 4-3 series victory (including a last-minute goal in Game 8). Karen even remarks at the end of the series that it all seems somehow familiar, while Wanda claims that people will still be talking about it thirty years later.

He also spouts sexy, poetic language while on fishing trips, causing other characters to be attracted to him regardless of their sexual orientation. One episode of the series takes place almost entirely in Hank's mind because someone told him to think before he spoke. Oscar's rants and complaints often border on downright incoherence, to the point that other characters will say things like, "Do you even listen to yourself anymore?" or, "Do you even care about making sense anymore?"

In order to entertain himself another way, Brent sets it up so that Hank and Wanda constantly get mad and fight each other while he sits back with popcorn.

("This could have been a burglar bringing you coffee!") They buy an alarm system just to make him leave them alone.

Corner Gas / int_f6f2ff1	type	Insult Backfire
Corner Gas / int_f6f2ff1	comment	Insult Backfire: When Lacey uses the term "scantily clad", Wanda insults her by asking "What are you, 70?". Later, Fitzy's Grandma says "scantily clad", and Lacey tries to use the same insult on her, which she takes as a compliment since she's actually 74 years old. After Davis jokes about the proposed "World's Biggest Hoe" statue ("You might as well say we have the World's Biggest Prostitute!"), Fitzy's Grandma slaps him and says, "Why do you youngsters always have to have such filthy mouths!?" Davis has been feeling sensitive about his age lately, so he's rather flattered to be referred to as a youngster. In "Telescope Trouble", Davis orders Brent to get the gas station door fixed because it's a safety issue. Brent says, "Oh, here we go. Big Daddy Government making it hard on the little guy." Instead of getting offended, Davis acts like the phrase is a cool nickname. "I like that. I'm Big Daddy Government." Marvin Drey finds being called "the tax man" dehumanizing and offensive. He asks Brent how he would like it if people called him "the gas man", to which Brent responds that he'd love it, and that he already had it picked to be his stage name if he ever decided to become a pro wrestler. When Hank is practicing insults to use on hecklers, he says "nice shirt" to Davis, but comes off as sounding sincere.

Brent tries and fails to scare Wanda's bratty son Tanner by pretending to be Jason Voorhees and Freddy Krueger, causing Brent to realize that a six-year-old probably hasn't seen many slasher flicks. Played straight when a later scene establishes that Tanner is familiar with the Austin Powers movies, because Brent has to explain the difference between Mike Myers and Michael Myers. In "Trees a Crowd", Brent and Hank take back their old tree house from some rude preteens. Hank is later seen reading an issue of The Walking Dead that the kids left behind.

It turned out almost the entire thing happened in Hank's imagination and the show would return for a fifth and sixth season.

One guy calls because his neighbour's grass clippings keep blowing into his yard, Myrtle calls because her TV isn't working, Lacey calls because she needs help moving her dresser, and so on. The mention and discussion of Sasquatch seems to come up often, even getting its own episode focus in the animated version.

Wanda replies, "You were barred from the co-op two years ago, so unless you have a bucket and a stool, you're paying for the milk. (beat) Oh, you'd also need a cow." There's no mention of what exactly Oscar did to get barred from the co-op.

Corner Gas / int_fae9d016	comment	Injury Bookend: Played With. Local cop Davis had no sense of smell because he got hit in the back of the head with a ball when he was young. When he falls off a ladder and hits the back of his head, he regains his sense of smell, but soon finds it overwhelming and wants to go back to lacking it. Oscar asks him how he lost it, then tells him, "Okay, then what you need to do is get hit in the head with a ball again." Davis lampshades the absurdity of this with, "I don't think that will work. This isn't Gilligan's Island". Oscar tries to hit Davis with a ball anyway, but ends up accidentally hitting Brent instead, causing him to lose his hearing in one ear.

On his 20th birthday, Brent bought a bottle of 20-year-old scotch with the intention of keeping it for 20 years and then drinking the now 40-year-old scotch on his 40th birthday. When his 40th birthday comes, he is upset to learn that Emma found the scotch only a few years after he bought it and threw it out because "it was over 20 years old".
