I was in Regina this week meeting with one of my customers, and I had an opportunity to visit the set of one of my favorite TV shows - Corner Gas. Most of you have probably never heard of Corner Gas, but it’s the #1 rated sitcom in Canada. Jodie doesn’t understand how it can make me laugh out loud when we’re watching it, the main character Brett has a very odd sense of humour that I just can’t help but laugh at. Perry was my host, and I think he got a kick out of how much I was enjoying visiting the set. Dog River is a fictional tiny town in Saskatchewan, but it really is the town of Rouleau. The main gas station and restaurant are sets, but the rest of the buildings in town are actually part of the town itself. They were filming as we drove by, but they shuffled us along when they were getting ready to shoot a scene.
At dinner back in Regina, the actor who plays Officer Davis sat down at the next table to have a beer and we chatted for a little bit. It was a full Corner Gas visit (oh, and we got lots of business done as well). My pictures can be found here (didn’t get a pic with Davis).
