Steve Smith Playhouse is a Canadian English language television series produced by S&S Productions that debuted in 2004. The series consists of 13 half hour episodes starring Canadian actor and comedian Steve Smith. In each episode Smith takes one specific B-movie from the 1950s or 1960s, condenses them to a half hour and uses his voice to replace that of the lead character, while all the other characters’ performances remain untouched, often changing the plot and tone of the original movie.

To me, technology is a subversive plot by all the geeks of the world to complicate our lives to the point where we become as useless as they are. Man's basic needs are food, clothing and shelter. Not food, clothing, shelter and a 600MZ CPU with 128 megs of RAM and a 32-gigabyte hard drive. I wish they'd just leave us all alone. If life is too simple for you, get married. Up here at Possum Lodge, we have our own rules about technology: 'If you're standing in a puddle, don't touch anything that hums,' and 'Don't trust anything that has no moving parts. Especially if it's a relative.' But I decided to bend our rules a bit when I made this DVD because it gave me a chance to use the Handyman's Secret Weapon - duct tape - and it gives you a chance to get a new Red Green show you won't be embarrased to display on your video shelf because the edge is so small, no one will be able to tell what it is! So grab a cold beverage, your DVD remote, and go nuts. I did.
