Dog River’s children’s play park is falling apart, easily making it the most dangerous place in town. So Brent suggests a novel fundraiser to fix the place up: a jelly bean jar contest. The idea takes off, but when those in charge start cutting corners, an innocent jar of candy raises more anger than money. Meanwhile, a convoy of truckers passing through town has Davis reliving trucker/cop movies of yesteryear, and Hank drags Wanda into a web of lies when he joins an exclusive club for people who own Lamborghinis.

oh riiiiiiiiiiiight!!! (duh) As you can probably guess, this isnt one of my favorite eps, I mean, I couldnt even remember what it was about :lol: .......it's not a "clunker" but, it's "average". (which means below what i'd expect from Corner Gas, where excellence is the norm!)< there ARe some good laughs, particularly when they make the "fast cuts" to kids trying to use the DECREPIT playpark!

Really? I always find it hard when you say an episode is not good or average. :eek: :lol: I know you have stated this a few times for different episodes.


No wonder you couldn't remember the details of the episode.:lol:

Decrepit playpark? :rofl: I gotta see that.

and when Wanda is talking up the Lambo owners Wanda: "Are you married?" Lambo owner: "Yes I am" Wanda: "Well, good luck with that!" :lol:

Brent: "For various reasons, it's not a very good playpark!"
Dog River citizen: "At least the kids can still play tetherball"
Brent: "Oh yeah, i forgot about that"
(fast cut to kids in park playing tetherball) Kid: "I HATE tetherball!" :lol:

:brent

Yeah that scene with the kid who apparently flew off the swing...:rofl: Just the thought in my head of a kid flying in the air is hilarious.

Those kids were funny when they actually had something that was in good condition (the tetherball) and they didn't like it. :lol:

I loved tetherball in school. :lol: Crazy kids, they don't know what fun is. :lol:

You were right, this episode was not all that. It had its moments for sure, like Wanda. I think the fact there were just too many outside people in this episode. When it is kept simple with just the townsfolk, it is hilarious. I didn't care for the trucker storyline.

Speaking of truckers, you almost never see it, but, there is a pump at the gas station for them with diesel.....its on the same side of the station as the air pump...You couldnt get a truck in front of the station because of the canopy (The diesel pump without its "diesel" label during the winter when the show is on hiatus)VVV
