Red Green - Stuffed and Mounted 1
"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 atThe 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 toRed Greenresults 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
