SILVER SPRING, MD; March 13, 2007 — Following the success of the 1997 Season DVD box set, Acorn Media announces the May 15, 2007 DVD release of The Red Green Show: 1998 Season, offering 14 classic episodes of the hit Canadian series that ended its 15-year run on public television in 2005.

The award-winning Red Green Show features backwoods handyman and raconteur Red, his techno-geek nephew Harold, and all the guys at Possum Lodge shedding hilarious light on the one thing they’re really good at—being men. Created by and starring Steve Smith.

As Red says, “You have to grow old, but you don’t have to mature.” Eight years into its 15-year run, The Red Green Show showed no signs of maturing. The 1998 complete season box set sees Red at his most inventive, making a heart pacemaker out of a digital clock and trying to run the lodge electrical system from a car cigarette lighter, just to name a couple dismal but hilarious failures. It was also the year that Red ran for mayor and Harold ran off . . . to college. College??
