2hotFeature one of my absolute favorites!

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

lilly_white_lillith First let me say that I'm excited about the movie coming out soon! I learned about Corner Gas when I saw it at the library and read what it was about, and am I ever glad I found it. Living in the US, it's difficult if not impossible to find shows that are actually funny. The "humor" in this country seems to fall into the sexual genre or things I couldn't care less about. The last funny show this country had was Seinfeld and that's just plain sad. So...f you have a sense of humor and know what's REALLY funny, then this show is for you. I love the subliminal sarcasm as well as the in your face type it has to offer. I love that insults get tossed around helter skeleter vs holding it in or doing it under one's breath. How the occupants of the town always get into a predicament and always get out of said predicaments in the most circuitous ways is enough to make one laugh aloud. Tons of trickery and tomfoolery going around. If this isn't your thing, then you don't know what real humor is all about. If you're looking for the Modern Family or the Family Guy type of non-humor, well keep moving.

crossbow0106 Stand up comic Brent Butt plays Brent Leroy, an owner of a gas station in Dog River, Saskatchewan, a small town in which the residents are slightly off center but still so real they become your friends over the life of the series. This is a comedy without a laugh track but you don't need one. The acting is top drawer, everyone is great in their roles. Outside of Canada, the actors are not well known. Eric Peterson, who plays Brent's cantankerous father Oscar, was in a lawyer drama called "Street Legal" in the 80's, playing Leon. That ran on American TV for a while. Tara Spencer-Nairn was in a great indie film called "New Waterford Girl" before this, but the rest of the actors are solid Canadian actors with much to admire about their careers before this show. This is small town life, with the characters so well defined, you'll fall right into their quirks, moods and world (particularly small world) views. All six seasons are available on DVD and are highly recommended. Enjoy!

erinedwards6700 This show isn't all bad. Brent Butt as the lead actor in the show can be very funny and so can his parents, most especially the way they play off each other. But the show is so dull and boring I can't stand watching it for very long. The jokes seem predictable and way too easy for TV. To be honest I don't see why so many people like this show so much but I guess to each his own as they say. It's not like I have to watch this show so I also don't understand why people bother to come on these forums and bash it, especially when it is already announced the show won't be renewed for another year. It is a lot better than other comedy shows in Canada and especially on CBC. Comparing it to Air Farce, Little Mosque et al makes it look like a work of complete genius. Way worse shows out there and I don't want to seem like I'm bashing it like I said but I think the show is dull and kind of stupid. Just one gal's opinion. Maybe it helps to be rural to understand the humor but I just don't 'get' it.

baseballboy_91 There's not much else to say about this show; in a fashion similar to Seinfeld, Corner Gas is sans plot and hit-or-miss. Seinfeld was almost always a hit, but occasionally not-so-good. Corner Gas is similar (not to compare it with the King of Comedies); it has its moments of brilliance, but sometimes the humor feels forced. Nonetheless, Canadians love the show, as it depicts humorous regional stereotypes about prairie folk. In typical Canadian fashion, it attempts to portray other parts of Canada, like Toronto, as egocentric, so it naturally appeals more to Canadians. The show is character-driven, however, and can appeal to a vast audience, provided that people don't form opinions too early after seeing a couple of bland episodes. It really is quite funny once you get into it.
