Customer Reviews

Comedy the way comedies should be made... with intelligence
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. (...)

Keeps getting better
Great family oriented comedy from the fictional town of Dog River in Canada. I enjoyed season two just as much as season one if not more. Oscar is becoming one of my favorite sitcom characters ever.
Great show!

Best Canadian Show Ever
I love Corner Gas. I first saw it in the middle of the night on WGN and fell in love imediately. Luckily, my birthday was only a few weeks away, so I asked for the first 5 seasons of the show (season six wasn't out yet.) On a lark, I looked the set up on the amazon.ca and found that all the sets are far less than half of what they cost on amazon.com. This season 2 costs 49.49 on amazon.com but only costs 16.33 united states dollars on amazon.ca. If you love the show as much as I do, and especially if you just want to check the show out if you've only seen a few episodes, get the set from amazon.ca and save yourself 30 dollars.
