Trivia
Wanda's (Nancy Robertson) son Tanner is mentioned but never seen. In fact in episode 1.4 "Oh Baby!" that featured Brent attempting to babysit the boy, things were often shown from Tanner's point of view, and he never spoke.

A wager was made between the mayors of Vancouver, Larry Campbell (II), and Regina, Pat Fiacco, on a CFL football game (BC Lions vs Saskatchewan Roughriders). The winning mayor would get a cameo appearance in a television show filmed in the losing mayor's city; Fiacco would win a guest role on "DaVinci's Inquest" (filmed in Vancouver) or Campbell would win a guest role on "Corner Gas". Vancouver won but Campbell's cameo was never filmed.

While its actual location is never mentioned on the show, the fictitious town of Dog River, Saskatchewan has been described by Brent Butt as somewhere between Regina and Saskatoon. It is also said to be within driving distance of the city of Weyburn (which places it closer to Regina than Saskatoon).

Q
What does 'You can tell me that your dog ran away. Then tell me that it took 3 days." mean?
A
This is a joke refering to the Prairie regions of Canada. The prairie region is very flat, with no mountains or steep hills. So when your dog runs away, you will probably still be able to see it for 3 days.
Q
What is the opening/closing song?
A
-"Not A Lot Goin' On" written and performed by Craig Northey and Jesse Valenzuela-"My Happy Place" written and performed by Craig Northey
