The Red Green Show is a half-hour Canadian television comedy program that aired on various channels in Canada and the U.S. from April 4, 1991 until April 7, 2006. During its fifteen seasons, it had six network homes, but its longest run was with its final network, CBC Television. It found its largest fandom[1] on U.S. broadcast stations, airing on more than 100 PBS affiliates at its peak. It is a cross between a sitcom and a sketch comedy and a parody of various outdoor shows and 'Do It Yourself' television series.
Repeats currently air on CBC Television, CTV Comedy Channel, various Public Broadcasting Service stations,[1] and on the Red Green Channel on Roku televisions. It was produced by S&S Productions, which is owned by Steve and Morag Smith. Directors on the series include Steve Smith, Rick Green and William G. Elliott.
