(in which Harold is excited about the prospects of obtaining a contract with a big American network and tries to revamp the show in order to fit with American standards. Having spent enough time in Canada by now to appreciate the stereotyping on both sides, I found the entire episode funny and this particular segment hysterical, though more for reasons of gender than national identity...)
Uncle Red has been hosting an inflated hip-waders contest, in which participants fill their hip-waders with dry ice, duct tape the waist shut, and see who can inflate their waders the widest without exploding.....Harold, on the other hand, has been trying to update the show in order to meet with mainstream American network approval.
Red (entering the Possum Lodge in very inflated hip-waders): Well, Harold, the guys are now in the final stretch. And I mean stretch.
Harold: Um, Uncle Red, remember the American network...."guys" sounds so sexist. Call them "people."
Red: But they're guys.
Harold: I know, but can't you just call them "people"?
Red: Not with a straight face. Look, Harold, Possum Lodge is open to all races, creeds, and sexes. It's just that, for some reason, women don't flock to inflated hip-wader contests.
Harold: But that's so sexist.
Red: No, Harold, it's reality.
I love the Red Green Show! I am a really big fan. I loved the episode where Red showed how to slow down traffic by pointing a hair dryer at speeding cars to make them think you had a radar gun. Plus, you gotta love the man's prayer that concludes each episode.
