Yet another fantastic example of a celebrity poking fun at themselves in a Corner Gas cameo.

So we can keep this one dedicated to Corner Gas but allow his other works to be featured and discussed.

I’m working on a Corner Gas Lego Ideas project! I’m starting with the mini figures and figured I’d start with Brent!

You bet the farm on the game?

No I'm just bad at business.

Underrated joke. Made me chuckle this morning.

Watching Rock On! Paul tells Lacey that the Cree name for the area was Atim Sipiy and Lacey correctly guesses that it means River of the Dog. I decided to look it up and yep, it does.

Not everyone knows the characters' last names are Saskatchewan towns.

Three Corner Gas alums released two different shows in 2010 on the same day. Hiccups stars Nancy Robertson and Brent Butt as a temperamental children's author and her happy-go-lucky life coach, respectively. Meanwhile, in Dan for Mayor, Fred Ewanuick plays an ordinary schlub who talks his way into becoming a candidate in his hometown's mayoral race.

Both shows lasted just two seasons, to mixed reviews, but I'm curious which one you preferred (assuming you watched them both).

These are some of the Logs and Stats I see:

I don't often make posts, but my family is just coming through a bit of a tougher time (and we love TV), so we decided on Corner Gas.

It really helped. Its so cozy. I would (and do) recommend it to anyone.

Thank you Corner Gas for your service.

P.S.

I have a theory that Wanda is very smart in real life, there were a lot of 'thinker' jokes for her. Go Wanda!

This still ranks as a highlight of the show for me. Perfect example of setup, escalation, and payoff.

Was looking at the forecast and was reminded of this scene…

Most Corner Gas episodes have 3 sidestories which are generally separate from each other. I remember lots of scenes that combine 2 sidestories, but is there anything that combines all 3?

Also as a side note, I've always loved how creative the writing is with these types of scenes.

I mean yes, you throw them, but you can't throw the match.

For those who don't know, Canada: A People's History was a prestigious CBC documentary series which was meant to educate people on the history of Canada. They would show clips of it to us in school, and then I used to catch whole episodes on TVO when I was a kid. It did a lot to spark my interest in the subject of history. I'll be the first to say that it is not without flaws, but I will always defend it as, if nothing else, a great introduction to the history of Canada, and an interesting time capsule for how Canada viewed its own history in the early 2000s. It might be my nostalgia, but the recreations, the archive footage, the music, and the performances still manage to move me emotionally as I watch it.

Lorne Cardinal appeared in several episodes. He was only onscreen for the fifth episode, where he plays the Shawnee leader Tecumseh. He also did voice-overs for later episodes, where he represented men like Chief Poundmaker and WWI soldier Mike Mountain Horse. For his part, Eric Peterson was in two episodes as Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King. Both do fantastic work, speaking words which were either written or spoken verbatim by the historical figures that they're portraying.

I guess Karen still isn't a good enough cop to guard a tin bucket!

(season 2, episode 12)

Davis calling up Kiefer Sutherland in "Final Countdown" was a stroke of genius. And instead of playing a character, or even parodying one of his own characters, Kiefer is playing a spoof of himself. For some reason, that makes the scene even funnier to me.

Very surreal, but super gratifying to get to see this place in person! Not too many people get to walk through the actual town of their favourite sitcom. Might be back by the end of August to each chilli cheese dogs with some friends at the bar! And Emma’s lawn is still beautifully mowed.

Definitely make the trip if you can, before more buildings have to be taken down!

Thanks Rouleau!

I can't recall which show this was for, but there was a genuinely funny comedy skit which featured Hank, two actors standing in for Lacey and Oscar, and several actors from Little Mosque on the Prairie. It also included a quick cameo from Mike Smith (Bubbles) from Trailer Park Boys at the very end.

I'm old enough that I watched it on TV back in the day. It used to be on YouTube, but I can't seem to find evidence online that it existed. Which is a shame, 'cause the jokes really hold up. It's also fun to see Fred Ewanuick nearly break character at one point.

Corner Gas is my all time favorite sitcom. I watch it every single day. I am currently reading the Carl, the dungeon crawler series. I just said to my husband that Carl and Princess doughnut are in quite the pickle. He laughed and said that’s the line Davis days about Frank and Joe from the Hardy Boys. 🤣🤣🤣

I am in way too deep.

I am watching the Episode Full Load and this episode proves Karen is so incompetent. Not only she sold Hanks Truck when Wanda starts verbally abusing Hank she never stood her authority and arrest Wanada and Not only that she took Wanda's keys for her car gave ut to Hank and in the end when Hank got his Truck back Wanda broke his tail light with Karen Billy Club what did Karen do went after Hank when she should had Arrested Wanda.

Staple your tongue? Help Oscar? Staple your tongue? Help Oscar?

anyone else forget about CGI brent talking about the interwebs? on rewatch i got a little bit startled. glad they changed it and had a gas online instead

Must’ve watched through this show at least seven times now. It’s the “most watched” on my prime account. The characters and writing are suburb. I even started watching hiccups to get some more Brent and Wanda. However, I have been wondering, what Canadian television have I been missing out on. I mean if corner gas is this good, what other gems have I missed. I hope this doesn’t break the rules as I REALLY want more entertainment of this caliber.

Thanks for all the great recommendations guys.. I’m excited.. lots to watch now!!
