The Red Green Show	comment	A Sitcom and Sketch Comedy show created by and starring Canadian comedian Steve Smith and centered around the members of Possum Lodge, a backwoods hunting camp and men's social club somewhere in Northern Ontario in the fictional town of Possum Lake. It loosely parodies "outdoor" TV shows generally, and was particularly inspired by The Red Fisher Show (which ran in Canada from 1968 to 1989). It ran for 15 seasons and exactly 300 episodes, from January 4, 1991 until April 7, 2006.The show is hosted by lodge leader Red Green (played by Smith); a philosopher, handyman, outdoorsman, and basically very average man. Technical direction is provided in the first eight seasons by his painfully geeky nephew Harold (Patrick McKenna). Episodes are usually framed by Red and Harold standing around in the front room of the lodge, hosting a low-budget Show Within a Show discussing some activity or event affecting the lodge or its members. This most often involves a wild scheme either to raise money or clean up some kind of environmental disaster before the authorities clamp down (with the former often being the cause of the latter). Red's updates are intercut throughout the show with various scenes of Red talking to lodge members about said issue, along with various recurring segments. The most well-known segment is "Handyman Corner", wherein Red somehow turns a simple DIY repair or project into a huge, awkward, Goldbergian task with the help of the "handyman's secret weapon", duct tape. (And lots of it.)Another popular segment is "Adventures with Bill", featuring the title character's attempts (or more accurately, spectacular failures) to engage in various pastimes such as pole-vaulting and glassblowing, in slapstick pantomime shown in black and white and narrated by Red. "The Possum Lodge Word Game" is a typically loose attempt at a Password-esque game show, with Red trying to get a lodge member to say a certain word for a prize.Red's recounting of the week's events—and the resulting arguments with Harold—usually mention various other lodge members who are only referred to and never seen or heard: generic guys Buster Hadfield and Junior Singleton, the extremely large Moose Thompson, the aptly-named Stinky Peterson, junkyard proprietor and mechanic Flinty McClintock, and the cranky and absurdly elderly Old Man Sedgewick.Other members of the lodge that actually appear on camera include such sterling intellects as Ranger Gord the extremely lonely forest ranger (Peter Keleghan), Dougie Franklin the monster truck driver (Ian Thomas), Edgar K.B. Montrose the half-deaf explosives enthusiast (Graham Greene), Arnie Dogan the injury-prone roofer and aspiring country singer (Albert Schultz), Winston Rothschild III the prissy sewage magnate (Jeff Lumby), Mike Hamar the paroled ex-convict and handyman (Wayne Robson), Dalton Humphrey the avaricious junk store proprietor (Bob Bainborough), Hap Shaughnessy the water taxi captain and pathological liar (Gordon Pinsent), Buzz Sherwood the burnout hippie float plane pilot (Peter Wildman), and Ed Frid the animal-phobic animal control officer (Jerry Schaefer). Given their various eccentricities and incompetences, not a lot ever tends to get done, except by way of confusing the issue further. Guest actors have included Colin Mochrie in a small role as hotdog expert Frank Kepke, and Paul Gross as naÃ¯ve yuppie Kevin Black.Culture is not unknown here at the Lodge, either — it may be gravely wounded, but it sure isn't being ignored. Red is often seen in short transitional vignettes playing guitar and singing (accompanied by Harold on spoons or homemade drum), or reciting poetry. Occasionally he simply addresses his fellow middle-aged schlubs directly and rather poignantly, concluding with "Remember, I'm pulling for you. We're all in this together."Each episode ends with a possum squeal calling the Lodge members to a meeting in the basement. Red stays upstairs for a moment to deliver a quasi-Aesop and a message to his wife, Bernice. Often the opening of the meeting will run behind the closing credits, with the studio audience as the Lodge members.The Red Green character was originally created by Smith for a recurring segment on he and his wife Morag's sketch comedy series Smith & Smith, which debuted on independent TV station CHCH in Hamilton, Ontario in 1979. He was originally a more straight-ahead parody of the aforementioned Red Fisher, telling stories about fishing trips while wearing a yellow plastic duck decoy on top of his hat. Red later appeared on the Smiths' family sitcom Me & Max (in which he was portrayed as the uncle of the titular character) and the couple's later sketch series The Comedy Mill, which ended around the same time The Red Green Show debuted. Though the show was originally conceived as low-budget "filler" for gaps in the CHCH lineup, it gradually attracted a small but dedicated fanbase. After CHCH cancelled the show after two seasons, Smith bought back the rights to the show and it was picked up for the third season by CFPL in London, Ontario with national distribution by YTV. Smith then rebranded the show as The New Red Green Show and brought it to the Global Television Network for seasons four through six; it found its permanent home on the CBC starting with season seven in 1997 and reverted to its original title the following year.A feature film adaptation Duct Tape Forever was released in 2002, featuring most of the cast from that era of the show as well as a few new characters. In it, Possum Lodge is fined $10,000 after rich property developer Robert Stiles gets his limousine stuck in a sinkhole on the property. The lodge members have just 10 days to raise the money before the lodge becomes public property, after which Stiles plans to buy it and convert it into a resort. On a suggestion from Harold, they build a giant duct tape-based statue of a goose to enter it into a duct tape sculpture contest in the Twin Cities sponsored by Scotch tape manufacturer 3M. Determined to have his way, Stiles enlists the local sheriff and his deputy to sabotage Red and Harold's trip to the contest at all costs.Although the show officially ended in 2006, Steve Smith reprised his role as Red every few years in stand-up comedy tours until 2019. On some tours his bits (framed as him leading a Lodge meeting) are interspersed with pre-recorded cameos from the rest of the cast discussing a sort of B-plot, such as Harold wrecking the Possum Van and the ensuing efforts to dislodge it from a tree, making them something of continuations of the show.There have been several video releases over the years, and the entire series can be watched for free on the show's official Youtube channel and on free streaming service Tubi, in addition to a Roku channel that plays classic episodes 24/7.In 2020, Steve Smith started a new Possum Lodge Podcast. The podcast features sketches reminiscent of the original TV series, and core cast members like Peter Keleghan and Patrick McKenna reprise their characters. Several new characters also appear, while characters like Junior Singleton and Moose Thompson who were previously The Ghost are Suddenly Voiced.

The Red Green Show / int_10dcbe05	comment	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: The middle and late seasons at least. Red and Harold, for all their butting heads, often show genuine affection for each other. Even much of their head-butting comes from Red trying to make Harold into a man, while Harold is usually trying to prevent Red from causing a catastrophe of some nature. In "The Baseball Tryouts," Red beat up the rival team's mascot after he insulted Harold. In the series finale "Do As I Do," Red gives the newly married Harold a hug and a giant roll of duct tape as a wedding present.

He does not realize that Bill does have a vision problem. He squints at the glasses on the pail, thinking it's Harold and delivers an uppercut to it, only for it to fall down and hit him on the head, knocking him out and leading Harold to be the winner by default.

For instance, Lodge membership is open to all genders, all races, religions and sexual orientations. To get in, you just need to have access to tools, trucks, building materials, explosives, medical supplies, legal services or cash. The names of some of the segments were revealed in the book too. The segment where two lodge members give the viewers advice on how to get out of a jam with their wives is called Buddy System, while the segment where Red gives a monologue to his fellow middle-aged men while sitting at a desk winding a fishing lure is called North of 40.

He is a little too successful, ridding the world of hardened criminals — like Dalton and Winston! A group of anti-logging activists chain themselves to trees to keep them from being cut down. The problem is that they trusted Ranger Gord to unlock them after the loggers left. Gord is so desperate for company he leaves them chained up for days. He's especially thrilled that two of them are women. When Red visits Gord and finds out what's happening, Gord promises to unlock them...and then "accidentally" throws the keys into the woods.

Ann-Marie was usually this, although later episodes featured a recurring segment in which Red is either dropping Dalton off at his house or picking him up from his house and we hear Ann-Marie's voice. This was lampshaded with regards to Bernice when Red is Mistaken for Gay by Winston:

In "Expropriation", Red ends the "Handyman Corner" sketch with "Remember, if the women don't find you handsome... get a convertible." In one episode, Red closes the "Sage Advice" segment with, "Remember: I'm pullin' for ya, we're all getting old together." "Guinness World Records" has has "Remember: I'm pullin' for ya, we're all getting even together." In "Cheap Jeep": "Remember: If the women don't find you a craftsman, they should at least find you crafty."

In another episode, Edgar called it "the explosive enthusiast's secret weapon." Also doubles as Borrowed Catchphrase.

The Red Green Show / int_2484396e	comment	Know-Nothing Know-It-All: What every guest turns into in the segment where they examine the three little words that men find impossible to say: "I DON'T KNOW!" Also, this is Hap Shaughnessy's main shtick: he makes a wild and unbelievable claim to have done something extraordinary or to have some special status in the world, no matter how blatantly impossible or improbable the claim. Red's narration during "Adventures With Bill" implied this in the early seasons. Red would constantly talk about how Bill is supposedly the big outdoor expert, even though Bill is constantly screwing up and Red figures out the right way to do things.

The Red Green Show / int_260926c3	comment	Failure Is the Only Option: When the money making scheme of extracting silver from old film negatives produced only a small blob of silver, Harold points out how much time and money Red and the other lodge members wasted; while Red points out that they had fun, they learned something, and they weren't out in their cars and boats doing any real damage. Red says that at his age you stop trying to win, and "just try to lose as slowly as possible".

But no matter what happens, he's always good as new by the next episode and ready for another zany adventure. He can even take a hit like ramming into a set of football uprights headfirst (while trying to pole-vault over them) and be up and around in minutes. That said, there are occasional references to the number of bandages Bill wears at any given time, and in one second-season episode when the Lodge members are trying to deal with an audit, one of them suggests using Bill's medical expenses and all the stuff he damages as "business expenses" for the Lodge. Red is a lesser example, considering how he'd sometimes get hurt by Bill's screwups. The other lodge members would also get in on this when the Adventure segment no longer focused just on Red and Bill. Everyone in the town is to an extent considering how despite most of the episodes containing either a natural or man-made calamity fit for an episode of Seconds from Disaster, nobody suffers anything worse than Amusing Injuries.

During the two seasons when Harold was absent, Dalton, Mike and Winston filled in for him, became more rounded characters and turned into regulars.

Dwight, as lazy as he is, does a half-assed job with his fishing rod without even getting out of his chair. He doesn't remove all the letters, and now the boat says "THE STINKER". In one "Adventures" segment, Red and Walter are having a chili cook-off. Walter's apron reads "I MASH MORE ONIONS" - until he falls over the fire they are using to cook the chili, burning holes in the apron so that it instead reads "I'M A MORON". In "Red Green Does New Years", Red assembles a light-up sign using heating elements from toasters. The sign reads "TOAST YOURSELF AT NEW YEARS EVE" at first, but most of the letters burn out, making it "YOU FAT ARSE".

The Red Green Show / int_4f4372e9	type	Early-Installment Weirdness
The Red Green Show / int_4f4372e9	comment	Early-Installment Weirdness: The first two seasons: In season 1, Red is incredibly low-key, and Harold frequently interrupts his stories with scene transitions. It also lacked the "Possum Lodge meeting" which ended every episode from season 2 onwards. Season 2 had a bunch of characters that were never seen in any other season. Neither season had the Expert segment, which would debut in season 3. Also, Harold's intros of Red in the first few seasons were much longer, and accompanied by the camera panning across various parts of the set. Season 1 Harold was egotistical, money-driven and overall not very likable (while still being as nerdy and awkward as ever). In fact, most of Red's insults toward Harold are comebacks for something Harold said to him! Early appearances of Dalton Humphrey gave his last name as "Humphries" and his store was "The Humphries Everything Store" instead of "Humphrey's Everything Store". The early seasons had a more sitcom-esque feel to it compared to the skit format of later seasons. The overarching plot of the episode was given much more focus and the skits were comparatively rarer, with a much greater focus on character interactions among the cast.

However, they rarely if ever cross the line into outright bigotry, the Native American characters (Joshua Twofeathers in Season 3 and Edgar Montrose from Season 4 onward) are treated as equals, while they view women as being fundamentally different than men, they definitely don't view women as inferiors, and it is explicitly stated that the Lodge is open to anyone regardless of gender, race, religion, or sexual orientation.

The Red Green Show / int_561dab6b	comment	Mistaken for Gay: This happened to Red and Winston at least twice. It eventually became a Running Gag that Dalton would walk in on an ambiguous scene between Red and Harold, get a freaked out look on his face and then leave immediately. In "Something in the Heir", Winston and Red went to a protest under the impression that it was for adoption rights. Red walks in carrying a Gay Pride sign instead. Cue Harold walking in, seeing the two of them there, and backing out. An episode centered around Red and Dalton mistaking Winston for gay because he had an earring (it turned out to be a piece of a little girl's toy that was flushed down the toilet and got caught there accidentally after the toilet exploded). They sit him down and awkwardly try to ask him if he is gay, which he mistakes as Red trying to come out of the closet himself. Even after the misunderstanding is cleared up, Winston still thinks Red is gay, just not ready to come out yet. In one Possum Lodge Word Game, Red is trying to get Ed Frid to guess the word "Fuzzy", and gives a hint saying that the word describes his beard. Ed guesses "Gay?". Red wasn't amused. In another Word Game, Red tries to get Dougie Franklin to guess the word "Romantic":

Winston even brought in his own computer as an extra source of information, but Red believes he was only showing it off. Said computer used a dial-up connection, which used up the phone line and prevented Dalton from phoning the lodge, making him lose the million and his sanity; he came back to the lodge by ambulance in a straitjacket.

In latter seasons, this practice was dropped, with the main plot of the episode only appearing in a few segments and otherwise being kept out of the recurring sketches like "North of 40" or "Handyman Corner." One of the most notable instances was the "No Duct Tape" episode, in which duct tape was used or seen lying around in several segments even though the main plot was that the lodge had run out of it.

Harold was shown getting a job in the city and was phased out of the show over the next two seasons (although the animated version in Ranger Gord's cartoon stayed, due to being voiced by Ranger Gord's actor Peter Keleghan). Once McKenna got his issues sorted out, Harold returned, having been explained as being named his company's community liaison to Possum Lake. Co-creator Rick Green, who plays Bill, also left the show for a few years to focus on his educational comedy show History Bites. Unlike with Patrick McKenna and Harold, Bill's disappearance was never explained, with the rest of the cast joining Red in the Adventure segments; Walter became a more or less full-time replacement for several seasons. When History Bites ended and Green came back, Bill returned as if nothing had ever happened.

The Red Green Show / int_812dd60	comment	Costume Evolution: Red (and, for the first eight seasons, Harold) always wore a plaid shirt with suspenders and khaki pants, but the specifics of the outfit evolved over the years: From seasons 1-3, the shirt was a mainly maroon-and-tan tartan (replicas of this shirt were later produced by the Dixxon company for the 2022 Christmas season). For the first two seasons, the suspenders were red on both sides and Red and Harold wore large â€œRed Green Showâ€� badges over the left breast pocket. Starting with season 3, the badges disappeared and the suspenders became red on one side and green on the other, which they would remain for the rest of the seriesâ€™ run. From seasons 4-6, the pattern on the shirt became mainly dark blue with red and white stripes. (This is the one seen at the top of the page.) For season 7 only, the shirts were a red, green and blue plaid which looked brown from a distance. From seasons 8-11 and in Duct Tape Forever, the shirt was a red, light blue and dark blue (or black) pattern that looked light purple from a distance. From season 12 onward, Redâ€™s main shirt switched to a blue, white and black pattern. But starting the following year, Red began wearing different shirts in different segments; scenes shot in the studio would usually have him in the blue, white and black shirt, while scenes shot on location would often have him switching to one of his older shirts or entirely different ones.

The Red Green Show / int_870bbf64	comment	Show, Don't Tell: The 300-episode series as a whole is possibly the most successful example of averting this trope as practically every episode featured segments of Red relating his off-screen adventures to the audience. See the Take Our Word for It entry - the events are so over-the-top that by letting you imagine the specifics, it's always going to be funnier than anything they could show. Though on occasion they will show the effects of the current situation affecting the area. Like when hydrogen starts flooding the area, and Redâ€™s hat starts floating in mid-air due to said hydrogen. Sometimes they will outright show the current problem, such as when Possum Lodge was haunted by a real ghost. Showing that for all the plausible deniability of their zany adventures, they do in fact happen.

In a season two episode, treasurer Douglas Hendrychuk tries to use the lodge charter to overthrow Red; Red couldn't care less and lets him take over. Doug screws up, and the lodge votes to put Red back in charge. Ranger Gord has a terrible job: Not only does he have to live in the fire watch tower 24/7 (which has made him Go Mad from the Isolation), but he doesn't even get paid. Red tries to persuade him to get a new job but Gord decides to stick with it on the grounds that his job is so terrible nobody else would ever want to do it, thus he has job security.

When things invariably go wrong, the consequences veer into complete absurdity. (Example: Red decides to end the local drought by building a cannon to seed the clouds. When Harold accidentally sets it off, the chemical payload falls into Possum Lake and vaporizes it in a huge cloud of foam. The blast touches off a thunderstorm to end the drought, the foam puts out several nearby forest fires, and it'll take so long for the lake to refill itself that the guys can retrieve all the junk they've thrown into it.)

The Red Green Show / int_8d612fe6	comment	Swapped Roles: The episode "Mad About You" has Harold helping Red with his anger issues. Red feels a lot better when he delegates more of his Lodge duties to Harold, but soon Harold's the one with the anger problems. The reason they both get so angry is from the stress of dealing with the other Lodge members' idiocy. In the first season, Harold constantly interrupted Red's stories by starting the next segment, claiming that Red was The Bore and driving off viewers. "The Water Tower" switches their roles. The Lodge members get the idea to build a water tower, which turned out to be a giant garbage bag tied to two trees to catch the rain. Stinky Peterson got the bright idea to tried to release the water from the tower by throwing a lawn dart at it, causing a huge flood. Harold is the one who wants to tell the audience about the disaster, while a mortified Red keeps telling him to bring up the next segment. Red was usually the person trying to get someone to say a word in the Possum Lodge Word Game. A few early segments switched it around so someone else tried to get Red to say the word.

Also inverted in one of the books. In the transcripts of a lodge meeting, Bill is shown to be a Motor Mouth, and goes on for pages. This is because Bill is actually a character named 'Bill from Bala' that Rick Green originated when he was a member of The Frantics. His shtick was that sooner or later, he'd end up directing any conversation towards a long-winded discussion of his hometown of Bala, Ontario; this is the real reason that Red didn't bother getting a good mike for his camera. The new potential Lodge members who appear in "New Member Night" segments (and played by volunteers from the studio audience) never speak.

Just before he went down to the lodge meeting, Red talked about how sad it was when people wasted their lives without even realizing it. When he suggested that it was because they didn't want to look, he had a brief and quickly suppressed realization that he'd just described himself, Harold and the whole gang up at Possum Lodge.

Some of the Handyman Corner segments have Red's "inventions" doing various cartoonish things, like a fan-powered car literally flying off the road. The Adventures also had a lot of cartoonish incidents, ranging from characters constantly falling from great heights and suffering multiple Taps On The Head to getting caught in explosions and getting electrocuted. Everybody's always good as new by next week's show.

The Red Green Show / int_9c23f3a0	comment	Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti: Red discovers that Ranger Gord has some pictures of Bigfoot that are actually clear and in focus, proving Bigfoot really exists. He excitedly tells Gord that the two of them should sell the pictures to a major TV network and get rich. However, Gord insists that since he is the professional forest ranger, he should do all the talking to maintain credibility. Red promptly gives the pictures back, knowing that nothing could give them less credibility than letting Gord do the talking. In one of Gord's educational cartoons, he lectures on how to protect oneself against a sasquatch. Because of its eponymous big feet, Gord explains, the sasquatch usually attacks by kickboxing its opponent, so one should keep their arms in front of their face at all times.

The second time the phone interrupts him, he smashes it with a sledgehammer and says, "Wrong number!" In "The Drive-Thru", Harold puts together a drive-thru speaker box that malfunctions and keeps repeating the same phrase over and over. Harold tries to shut it off by pressing various buttons, but this doesn't work, so he knocks it to the floor with a baseball bat.

"If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy." After giving advice to fellow middle-aged men: "Remember, I'm pullin' for ya. We're all in this together." Inverted when Harold presented the North of 40 segment in Red's place and closed with "Remember, you're on your own. Don't push it." "...using the handyman's secret weapon: duct tape." The Man's Prayer: "I'm a man...but I can change...if I have to...I guess." Inverted in the series finale "Do As I Do", where the closing was changed to "I'm a man...but I changed...because I had to...Oh, well." In "The Big Retreat", the Lodge had to cater to a group of women, so the Man's Prayer is replaced with the Woman's Prayer: "I'm a woman... hear me roar... I'm in charge... Get over it!" "It's not smart, or correct, but it's one of the things that makes us what we are." "This is only temporary, unless it works." "If at first you don't succeed, switch to power tools." "If it ain't broke, you're not trying." "Big, big week at the Lodge this week." "You know my motto: safety forced." "Any tool can be the right tool." Edgar: "Kaboom!" Garth: "Another super day..." "I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that, Red." In the intros to the 1996 episodes, Red would say, "What you're looking at here are some segments from this particular show, the main message being, 'For gosh sakes, don't even think about changing the channel.' I tell ya something: If you want to make sense of this program, you have to give it your undivided attention." In the same episodes, during the bumper leading into the first commercial break, which shows a clip of the show to follow, Red says, "Stay tuned. Whatever this is, we've got lots more of it." "Welcome to Harold's Handicrafts, where crafty hands make handy crafts!" used by Harold to start the "Harold's Handicrafts" segment that featured in several Season 5 episodes.

Red and Mike think they taste horrible, but Dalton actually likes them and eats at least one whole box over the course of the episode. At the end of the episode, Mike comes in after just having tried to sell the candy at Buster Hadfield's house. Buster happens to be hosting a Chinese exchange student who points out that the writing on the box says "earrings". Upon hearing this, Dalton suddenly isn't feeling well. In yet another episode, Red and the others thought they were brewing their own alcoholic beverage (it was either sparkling wine or light beer, Red says) in a bathtub, although Red was curious as to why this beverage had olives. Harold tells him that's actually his project for the school science fair: he is pickling polliwogs, which is what Red had mistaken for the aforementioned olives.

The Red Green Show / int_b6de94d1	comment	Executive Meddling: invoked In-universe example. Two sketches in season 10 involved Red being called in to meet with a representative of the network (Kelly Cook, a college-aged girl who is most definitely not the target audience of either the real or the in-universe show), who demands that certain changes be made to the show. Red always finds some way to get out of it. There was a full episode devoted to this, "The Network Deal", where the show was trying to get bought by a major network (which actually had some Reality Subtext at the time) but Red wasn't happy with all the stupid changes that were being forced upon it. And "Reality Television" had Harold wanting to change the format of the show to add more conflict, as that's what apparently drives reality TV shows to be popular.

Mike became Possum Lake's Chief of Police (and since he was the town's only criminal, the crime rate dropped to zero), Winston got a job investigating government corruption (he knew the territory), Dalton and Anne-Marie renewed their wedding vows (Anne-Marie wore black), Ed became leader of the local animal rights group, Edgar tried to make a heated recliner using plastic explosives and hasn't been seen since, Hap became ambassador to Guam (or so he claimed), Harold and Bonnie had two children (who are just as geeky as their parents)... in fact, according to Red, everyone changed except him (although the final shot of a well-dressed Red sitting in an armchair by a fireplace suggests otherwise).

No matter what clues they get, though, they keep coming up with a string of bizarre responses based on their own life that are nowhere close to being right.

There were also Garth Harble, the first animal control officer before Ed Frid; Glen Brachston, the lazy marina owner; Dwight Cardiff, the other lazy marina owner; Dougie Franklin's brother, Ben; Bob Stuyvesant, golfer/ministry of natural resources worker; Arnie Dogan, accident-prone roofer/aspiring country singer; Young Walter, Bill's replacement in the black-and-white segments after Rick Green temporarily left the show; Dale, a teenaged boy who worked at a local gas station; Kevin Black, Yuppie cottage owner; Jack, a doomsday-prepping survivalist who only appeared in season 1; etc. At least one was justified, as Garth's replacement Ed Frid mentions in his debut segment that Garth got bit by a toad and "lost his nerve." A couple characters only appeared in two episodes in The '90s: Earl Battersby, a local bait shop owner who believed in the paranormal; and Kelly Cook (one of the first female characters on the show), a meddling network executive who only appears in two Season 10 episodes. Special mention goes to Sparky Hoover, a radio host/school bus driver who only appeared in "Big Guy Little Guy".

The Red Green Show / int_d9cfb922	comment	The Catfish: Season Four's "The Catfish Project" has the Lodge hold its annual "Catch A Catfish For Confirmation" fishing derby. Old Man Sedgwick wins the derby by catching a catfish that's somehow forty-seven feet long. note When Old Man Sedgwick tossed out his boat anchor, it tangled around Stinky Peterson's ankle and dragged him into Possum Lake. The catfish swallowed Stinky, died and floated to the surface, and when Old Man Sedgwick dragged it to shore it belched out Stinky. The Lodge members come up with all sorts of money-making ideas for it, but the catfish wasn't really that big. Moose Thompson accidentally let his still-going propane tank fall into Possum Lake, where a three-foot catfish swallowed it. The propane kept going, inflating the catfish and filling it with propane gas. When Moose tried to cut the catfish with a chainsaw, a spark ignited the propane and blew up the catfish. The resulting Earth-Shattering Kaboom caused bits of catfish to rain over Possum Lake for over 30 minutes. Red was dazed from the explosion, but Moose's chainsaw, overalls, body hair and future family were all gone for good.

There are also many inconsistent jokes about how old he was when he graduated from school Depending on which episode you're watching, Winston's father was either a lawyer, worked for the railroad, or was "the happiest drunken gambling gigolo you ever met." The distance between Possum Lake and the nearby town of Port Asbestos has been given as anything from 18 to 125 miles. Possum Lake's exact location in Ontario is also unclear. The show is supposedly set in Ontario's Muskoka region, but Port Asbestos's name implies that it's set on Hudson Bay. That would put Possum Lake much farther north than Muskoka. Stinky Peterson's real name has been described as everything from Stephen to George to Frank. Moose Thompson is either the World's Strongest Man, or simply a Fat Idiot in extremely poor shape. The exact length of Dalton's marriage to Anne-Marie varies depending on the episode, as does the age and name of their daughter. Harold's exact age varies between episodes. He mentions in the first season that he's nineteen, and says the exact same thing in the fifth season. Possum Lake is usually described as so polluted it's devoid of life, but several episodes mention the Lodge members either successfully or accidentally catching catfish.

Shockingly, all of the DNA tests turn out to be exactly the same. Incestuous implications aside, this unfortunately only entitles everyone to a few bucks each since the inheritance has to be split so many ways. It turns out that this was because Mike stole all the test tubes, so the testers had to use the lids off pickle jars, and simply ended up testing the chemical composition of pickle juice. The reason this matched the old guy's DNA was because he was always pickled himself. At the end, the men show off their real DNA test results: Dalton's shows a graph with dollar signs, Mike's shows prison bars and Red's shows a possum playing dead.

The Red Green Show / int_ec9d3eb7	type	Explosive Stupidity
The Red Green Show / int_ec9d3eb7	comment	Explosive Stupidity: Edgar Montrose, the local explosives "expert" (or "enthusiast", depending on the episode) who qualifies his use of dynamite in any given situation as "explosives enthusiasm". It doesn't matter what your problem is, Edgar can use dynamite to "fix" that. This is quite obvious from his smoking and torn overalls, his missing fingers and his soot stained face. He has also lost most of his hearing. In the "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue, it's revealed that Edgar possibly finally managed to get himself killed when he tried to make a self-heating recliner out of C4.

The Red Green Show / int_ed3e90f3	comment	Duct Tape for Everything: You know it. Played with in the episode "No Duct Tape," where the lodge runs out of duct tape—only to find loads of it in the attic, where it was being used to fix the ductwork. This leads to a comment from Mike: "I didn't know it was good for that!" Ironic, because duct tape cannot be used to seal ducts. A lampshaded subversion appeared in one episode where tape was needed to do duct work... Scouring through the rolls of duct tape uncovered what he was looking for - adhesive tape.

The Red Green Show / int_edfb8d92	comment	The Generation Gap: Played with. While Red does offer the stereotypical "old man rants" about "kids these days" committing petty crimes, disrespecting their elders, and listening to bad music, he also at times acknowledges that in a lot of ways they act not so differently than he did when he was young, and on numerous occasions even (in an admittedly humorous way) sincerely offers good life advice to teenagers and young adults. It also provides part of the reason for the personality clashes between Red and Harold and Dalton and his daughter.

The Trabant was famously made out of Duroplast, better known as "cotton and resin," and did not rust. In another episode Red suggested donating a '73 K-car to charity; the K-car wasn't introduced until 1981. In the penultimate episode, Red Green claims to have had the car he was working on for thirty years, but the vehicle in question is a third generation Chrysler LeBaron that would have been no more than 20 years old at the time the episode was filmed.

One of the articles in Red Green Talks Cars: A Love Story told readers what their car indicated about them. Anyone who drives an "old car that barely runs" is a Lodge member. More specific examples include Stinky Peterson's Trabant, Moose Thompson's Gremlin, Douglas Hendrychuk's Nash, Buster Hatfield's Pacer, Harold's Pinto and Red's Possum Van. Red prodigiously uses Chrysler K Cars in the Handyman corner segments. At least until the episode "Red's Hot Sauce", Dalton drove a 1982 Plymouth Reliant.

Red didn't quite know what he was getting into, as Harold pointed out that anyone could now dump their garbage around the Lodge. This is one of the few episodes where everything actually worked out, as the Lodge members began scavenging most of the garbage for their own personal projects. Harold then invokes this trope, telling the viewers that the Lodge's garbage dump takes anything and everything anyone can bring them.
