Red Green (Steve Smith) — Laugh Tracks Legends of Comedy



Grab your roll of duct tape and come with us to the Possum Lodge to meet Red Green, handyman extraordinaire and the creation of Canadian comedian Steve Smith. A loose parody of a Canadian outdoors show, the Red Green Show won a huge following with its low-key, but completely relatable humor. With over 300 original episodes, a book and DVD collection, plus frequent tours by Smith (in the Red Green character), duct tape fans don’t have far to look to see their hero in action. As always, thanks for sharing our shows!

Red Green was the single biggest thing to happen to duct tape sales in years and 3M wisely hired Red to extol the virtues of the “handyman’s secret weapon.” https://youtu.be/y5yFWiJK670

The Red Green Show racked up 300 episodes before ending its run — here’ is the very first episode which aired back in March of 1991. https://youtu.be/FUXPuYZ4DEQ

Part of the charm of Red Green was seeing him build the most improbable creations with the simplest materials. For instance, who hasn’t thought of creating a pontoon boat by lashing your favorite recliner to a pair of home heating ducts using nothing but the handyman’s secret weapon — duct tape!https://youtu.be/vPbubMAYN7g

It’s the mark of a true cult classic when superfine create cuts of special moments. Here’s a collection of Red giving his signature sign off (“Keep your stick on the ice!”) in every single show! https://youtu.be/C4IL5uUDcfg
