The Super Dooper Canadian Thread (now with 47% more Canadian Bacon)
Saskatchewan - where you can watch your dog run away for 3 days.
I'm not much of a fan of the show, but that scene always cracks me up.
I am intrigued and wish to know more about this show.
I love Corner Gas. Very dry humour, very Canadian. Best sitcom we've had since.... well I can't think of any other good Canadian sitcom. I'm tempted to say it's the best comedy show we've had since Kids in the Hall though.
Sorta like the Andy Griffith Show, if Andy was a snarkasaurus?
Heh. Prairie. Little Mosque on the Prairie. God I love autocorrect sometimes.
I've never watched it either. I've heard good things, but not from anybody I know.
I'm too young to have ever watched the Andy Griffith show, but yes?
Most of my friends aren't exactly big fans, but I thought it was pretty great.
It did air (Or maybe still does in syndication for all I know?) in the States, but obviously it didn't really do as well there.
I dunno. It looks like just about the whole series is on youtube.
*shrugs* like I said, most of my friends didn't really like it either.It wasn't amazing TV, it was a cheap, tame sitcom. But I enjoyed it nonetheless. I wouldn't say it compares to Kids in the Hall, just that it's the best since Kids in the Hall, cause really since Kids in the Hall what have we had?
I mean, there's this Hour Has 22 Minutes (Which I think nosedived the minute Rick Mercer left to do his own show)
Royal Canadian Air Farce, which I never found funny.
And there was Red Green.
That's pretty much it, that I can think of.

Oh! Trailer Park Boys. We had that too. Which I never got into. Not really my kinda thing. Though I saw the first movie,and it was actually pretty okay.
IIHF Men's World Championship started today, with Canada beating Slovakia. 
Tomorrow they play the US.
Also, what do you make of this Wendy's "Poutition" to get poutine declared Canada's national dish? I take issue with it myself. First of all, it's Wendy's. They can butt out of what is declared by the federal government to be a national symbol. But also, I LOVE poutine, it's delicious, but you can't deny it: it's fast food. It'd be like the US declaring the hot dog their national dish.

Except hot dogs taste good.
We don't call that bacon. Only Americans call that Canadian bacon, and I think they do it just to annoy us.
What is ACTUALLY Canadian bacon, is a slightly differen cut, and is called "back bacon". But we don't call that "bacon" OR "Canadian bacon". It's usually also coated in a thin layer of peameal, and more commonly referred to simply as "peameal bacon".
What we actually call bacon, is bacon.
I think we have achieved a bacon singularity here. SORCERY!
Don't be ridiculous.
I think that's the best explanation I've ever seen. I'm going to use that one the next time somebody asks.
If Canada loses to the US this time, it's not my fault. Got my jersey on and it's pristine.
*edit: Kay, that wasn't my fault. Canada did not play well. Only reason that even went to OT was because Cam Ward kept us in the game.

Did you try their poutine?
