Product Description

The Red Green Show: 1999 Season finds affable handyman Red Green (Steve Smith) still enthusiastic about helping men everywhere get a grip on all aspects of their lives. “Remember, if you’re not handsome, at least be handy,” remains Green’s mantra for the average guy, though what that means exactly to him continues to defy all reason. In the 16 episodes included in this box set, Green takes the time to show the fellows watching at home how to install tractor wheels on a sedan in order to raise it high enough to mount a boat. (Why? Because it’s hard to keep a boat strapped to the roof of a car with duct tape.) Elsewhere, in other segments, Green demonstrates the advantages of a snowball-pitching machine (a good way to get revenge on teens pelting one’s windshield with snow); attaches canoe paddles to oversized wheels in order to make his van amphibious; and demonstrates how heavy oil drums used in place of tires can mash a whole lot of apples into a kind of pavement substitute. He also tips male viewers about using old socks as a tool belt, repurposing broken hedge clippers as windshield wipers (capable of shredding unwanted pamphlets left on a car window), and proves that one can build an ice-skating rink that doesn’t require one to wake.
Fortunately, Red Green is just as enthusiastic about other things in a man’s life, such as love (in one episode, he encourages men to take a good, hard look at their naked selves in the mirror before exiting a relationship to re-entering dating) and self-improvement (trying to become a kinder, gentler friend to Possum Lodge mates who trash his car). As always, Red’s Lodge buddies, such as Dalton (Bob Bainborough) and Mike Hamar (Wayne Robson), are there to keep things at a fever pitch (Dalton discovers a mummy and fears it will reawaken, while Mike, the friendly career criminal, explains how he doesn’t blame either his mother or “any of” his dads for his problems). Elsewhere, beloved character Harold (Patrick McKenna), Green’s nephew, has gone to work for a big business in the big city, and soon regrets inviting Green to visit him at the office. (Green attempts to steal a few things while there). One of the highlights of the season is listening to Red guide men on what to do when their wives ask if they (the women) look old. His solution? Be concomittal. (“You look good to me honey.”)--Tom Keogh
