An ICON in goofy entertainment
Laughter is unavoidable, even for girls. This is the earlier years of a show that went on for 15 years, but these episodes are at a point in the history that Red Green had found himself. It is delightful family viewing. You can overdose on this much comedy, so beware, take Red Green in smaller doses, and spread the belly laughs over some time. But it's hard not just going from one episode to another. Red Green and cast are addictive.
This is redneck Possum Lodge tom-foolery that is held together by Red Green's signature uses of duct tape. He is a master at re-invention as well as putting together the quirkiest assortment of lodge members imaginable.
Rated LOL, the 9 disc box comes in 3 cases. My copies of Red Green seem to circulate through the family. Show someone one episode and they want to borrow the entire set. Everyone can find some fun with the Red Green family. I became acquainted with Red Green through the shows on TV. Lovely to have them on DVD for...
Best Episodes of Series
So many of these episodes show Red Green (Steve Smith) and Harold Green (Patrick McKenna) at their best. Since Red has such outrageous ideas, Harold is kind of needed to supply some rationality. Each has a different perspective, and yet they understand each other so well. I understand that shows need to change direction and grow; still, I didn't like some of the changes after Harold "left" the show in later seasons. In any case, I think the later changes make me nostalgic for some of the earlier seasons, when the material seemed really fresh. For example, the "word game"--which came to be a part of every episode through the show's end--was introduced in the fifth season. Edgar K. B. Montrose (Graham Greene) made a lot of appearances in these episodes. Dalton Humphries actually sold things at his shop and combed his hair. Some of these episodes I hadn't seen in many years, and yet I was surprised by how much I remembered. I strongly recommend Seasons Four-Six to Red Green fans...

These are among the best ever of Red Green shows. We have all the seasons and seem to enjoy these years the most. Thanks
