CORNER GAS: SEASON 4 (2008) Review

The writing and acting are, as always, superb. But my copy of season 4--along with a couple of friends copies--has serious flaws in the recording. The actual DVDs skip despite the fact that they are not scratched. I assume there is some kind of production error.

Includes all 19 episodes of the 4th season on 3 discs.

The Sinefeld of the North, Corner Gas is an excellent sitcom. The dry, sarcastic humor is great and the characters are even better! Brent Butt has pulled together a great cast of actors and given them some of the best rolls I've seen in a long time. Too bad it's all over. Season 6 was the last.
Got my DVD because they haven't started running the final season in the states that I can find. Only watching one a week, just because that's the way I am.
I'll be buying the other 5 seasons for Christmas this year.

I have given up on American Sit-coms, they all have one subject and only that subject SEX. Not that there is anything wrong with a little subtle induendo but every show is in your face sex from beginning to end. Corner Gas proves that a comedy can still be clean and funny. Let's see more of this from CTV.

Just some of the Season Five hilarity includes Karen and Davis investigating mysterious crop circles, Brent and Lacey making The Ruby and Corner Gas more environmentally friendly, and Oscar moonlighting as a school bus driver for a day.

I'm one of the few Americans lucky enough to be familiar with this series. It is one of the funniest TV shows ever created. The writing is top notch and the characters are quirky and funny. If you don't know someone who reminds you of Oscar, you have lived a very sheltered life. Well worth the time and effort to watch. Better comedy than anything on American TV today.

And you are aware that both Corner Gas creator Brent Butt and his Dog River alter ego Brent Leroy (aka Self Serviceman) are way into comic book lore? Thus the classic rendering of the cast by Canada's illustrious graphic swashbuckler Ron Boyd. Yes, Corner Gas' 'Awesome Eight' once again drew on their uncanny comedy superpowers in Season Three to turn deceptively inane premises into comedy gold, destroying the evil competition and making our glorious land a safer place in which to laugh! And now that you've read this it's pretty clear that even though our sleeve concept is somewhat outside the box, what's inside the box is the actual TV series and not a cartoon.

This is a really good Canadian show not as awesome as Corner Gas but still good. I would recomend starting at season 1 or some of this season won't as good since you will not know the back ground of the tenants in Robson Arms apartments.

This is a great premise for a tv show.This show could have gone on for years with different characters coming and going.It is a shame that several of the actors,writers,producers left to make Corner Gas,leaving this show to die after two seasons.Is it worth getting?Yes(atleast its two seasons, and not a one season wonder)Does it suck that it ended too soon?Yes,but now you get to watch Corner Gas...

Croner Gas, now in its third season in Canada, is the story of a gas station/convenience store owner (Brent Butt, also the show's creator) and seven other main inhabitants of the small Saskatchewan town of Dog River. Unlike many US sitcoms where there is a forces laugh track and a joke or funny face that must be made every 52 1/2 seconds, Corner Gas finds its humor in the reality of life ina small, backwater town in the middle of nowhere where such things as the biggest pile of lumber in town or the town's pothole are big things to the townspeople. It also finds its humor in how people really are... characters.
This is the sort of show that a major US network would ruin if they decided to do a US version, just as they ruined Coupling a few seasons ago. Which is a pity because this is a show that deserves to be seen down here. Maybe Comedy Central will pick it up. Or, BBC America.
For those lucky enough to live in Canada or in a border town that receives CTV or Canada's Comedy Channel, you get to watch these wonderful programs weekly. For those of us in "other" places, we have to wait until the DVDs come out. Thankfully, the first two seasons are available from amazon.ca. (...)
