Summary: Subtle, inventive humor
Review: My favorite segments from THE RED GREEN SHOW (do a Google!) have always been HANDYMAN'S CORNER, in which Red takes junk items from around the lot and converts them into a moneysaving project, always using rolls and rolls of "the handyman's secret weapon: Duct tape." DUCT TAPE VIRTUOSO DELUXE is a collection of more than a dozen of those segments, in which Red builds (among other things) a front loader from a Lincoln towncar; an Airstream camper from two rowboats; a pontoon boat from a recliner and HVAC ventilation; a drag racer from a lawn mower, a ladder, a broken chair, and a bike; and a stretch-SUV from... well, you get the idea.

RED GREEN is one of my favorite shows --I love the subtle, inventive humor-- and I've always wanted a collection of these segments. They're the ones I'd mention most often when I'd ask people "Have you ever seen THE RED GREEN SHOW?" and then I'd stumble trying to explain how funny it was when Red not only cobbled these projects together, but then actually made them WORK. Now, I can just show them the DVD.

A great collection that hasn't gotten any less funny with repeated viewing, and a great introduction to anyone who's ever wondered what this show is about.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hilariously funny
Review: Once again, this Red Green tape is a one-hour collection of scenes from the excellent Red Green show. As might be expected, the majority of them are Handyman Corner skits, but they are quite excellent, and I only recognized a couple from other Red Green tapes. (Nearly all are new to me, as my local PBS station stopped carrying Red right after the last telethon - where they announced that they raised enough to continue showing it! Grrr!)

Anyway, the big surprise (to me) on this tape was no Harold! For the most part it's just red, but Mike Hamar is there, as is Dalton Humphrey, and a few others. Ever wonder what Red would do if he ran out of duct tape? Well, get this tape and you'll find out.

This is a great tape, with nothing that needs to be kept away from younger viewers. It is hilariously funny, and well worth the money. Buy it!

Summary: From PBS
Review: The red green show is a PBS comedy show, about a lodge on opussum and the miss adventures of the members. The show is skit basses with a tie in plot inbetween. All in all its a good laugh on the obserdities of rural life and outdoor enjoyment.

Summary: Did I Mention That I Love Red Green?
Review: This is a must have for the Red Green fanatic! It's chock full of material to give your funny nerve an orgasm. For an old guy Red Green is pretty hot. I'd do him. Of course, I'd do just about any man that would let me. Go out and buy this DVD!
