That bit about parenting may be the best thing I've seen in this show, I have loved red green for years (always woke up early for school so I could watch an episode at 6 before leaving) and so much of that entire conversation about parenting just seems like it comes from a real place, like it actually happened. I know I can relate to some of those comments, but all in all, sometimes parents are right, but most of the time, parents are just as human and fallable as the rest of us. Sending love to anyone who has trouble with their parental figures. I'm pulling for ya, we're all in this together

[@stevepatrickjarvis]

Watched this show as a kid and now as I am getting older and in my middle ages, it just keeps on getting funnier and funnier.

[@ironmatic1]

marshmello thing sounds like a Corner Gas plot

[@blamb42]

I have to wonder how they film the fishing segment. There is never any trace of a wake from a camera boat circling Red's boat or any sign of a crane (or other support) on the banks and they seem to get at least very close to a full circle (although it is interrupted). My only guess would have to be a drone of some kind.

[@Dark_Mishra]

I think their boat is stationary in the center of the pond while the boat with the camera crew just goes really slow. The camera zooms in quite a bit, and very rarely does the camera make a full circuit around them before cutting to the next shot.

[@blamb42]

@@Dark_Mishra - I've seen at least once that they did about 2/3 or 3/4 of the way around the boat and even the slowest moving boat makes a wake. That water is dead calm and yes their boat is stationary, even to the point that it may be fixed to a post underwater. As I said the pond is dead calm, not even a ripple from the movement in their boat (not that they move around much). If it is a second boat they would have to wait quite a while until the ripples die down for the next shot, I think the dead calm water is part of the joke that life moves at a slower quieter pace around the lodge. Lastly a mid-range drone capable of mounting a small TV quality camera is a lot cheaper that it used to be, probably under $1,000.

[@Dark_Mishra]

Bob Lamb True. That part of the pond they’re in may even be fake? Maybe there’s a hidden track around the entire outside that’s hidden by the plants?

[@blamb42]

@@Dark_Mishra - I hadn't even thought of a fake pond. If the pond is fake (glass?) then they could dolly a standard TV camera around without disturbing anything. My only concern with the fake pond theory is the expense. A piece of glass that big is the stuff of NASA budgets and Red Green was a low budget show. (Steve Smith mentioned several times that he asked for enough money to make a TV show but not so much that they care what it is.) It could be something other than glass but I can't think what off of hand.

[@Dark_Mishra]

Bob Lamb Yeah, it’s surprising how much they were capable of on such a limited budget. The glass idea does sound logical. Maybe it’s a very wide shallow pool or something.

[@Eric-W]

[@mikewalter1111]

An interesting style of car that was. What brand of ford was that anyhow? LTD?

[@artstrader7954]

isaac Dyer, that is a Ford Granada. Had one. 1975. 302 C.I. V-8. Mercury had the Monarch (corporate twin) and Lincoln made a copy called the Versailles. They were good cars (for the time, anyway), fast (enough), comfy and quiet. The Granada, Monarch and Versailles were styled after the Mercedes Benz of the era, and were popular with car buyers who liked the German cars, but couldn't afford one. They had 'The Look'. Even the color-keyed hub caps on the FOMOCO trio resembled the hub caps found on the Mercedes to the 'T'. The Granada picked up the unfortunate nick name, 'Grenade'. Like to have one now! Happy new year!

[@genearmfield5814]

Red green have been entertaining since I first saw the show and it seems that my friends and acquaintances are getting younger than my siblings and children because it seems that many of the the latest friends and acquaintances who missed out on Steve Smith got the idea that reality TV is simultaneously true enough to be offensive and yet entertaining enough to continue watching for more than one episode of whatever continuously CONjoined CONvoluted and CONfused faux comedy pseudo drama soap tragedy is being peddled as of possibly authentic care and concern about snookered vague and ambiguous generalized negativity with additionally individualised put downs that equate to Nothing
