Not of a famous passenger train, but of a classic TV show. Tonight on CBC, the Red Green show will run it's last episode....

Ahhhh, that's a shame. Unfortunately, the show lost it's uniqueness and spontaneity after Harold left it the first time, and it began to become more contrived. The rapport between Harold and Red was a key ingredient to the show and Harold was MUCH better at being the password host than either Mike or the septic guy.) I still get some chuckles out of the older reruns. The DVD compilation of the duck tape segments is a stitch! [(-D]

Alas, I will mourn the loss of a truly great show...but be a man about it...if I have to...I guess....

Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.

Just remember to keep your stick on the ice, and that were all in this together!

That was one of the few decent shows left on the TV stations we get.[:(] I'll have to watch it on PBS tonight. I hope it has one of Ranger Gord's "Educational" Cartoons on it. Now THOSE are funny.[(-D]

Off topic-er, I want USA back so I can see new episodes of Monk. Another great show.[:D]

Yeah, sad to see Red Green go. Hopefully PBS will continue to show re-runs.
