I suppose it is too much to ask for a special Straight Dope preview screening??

What if we promise to buy two rolls of duct tape each?

Well, if the women don’t find you handsome…

You think that’s bad? Imagine a duct tape jockstrap.

Are you mental? You think we actually taped her breasts up with duct tape? While I will admit I have heard of such nonsense, we didn’t do that.

Please. We made the bra, then she put it on. No sticky next to her skin.

To heck with Harry Potter, I want to see Red Green!😃

What I want to know is are they going to show Ranger Gord cartoons before the movie?

Now what’s worse - removing the duct tape jockstrap or having to explain to a doctor that you were wearing a duct tape jockstrap?

Oooh, Ranger Gord cartoon before movie - beauty idea! If ever there was a character begging for spin-off, it’s the lonely, loony boy himself. Come to think of it, I love all the guest characters on the show; Graham Greene as the demolitions man, Gord Pinsett as the pathological liar, etc. Really looking forward to the movie.

Well, considering we’ve got shows like Survivor and movies like Corky Romano we’ve gotta go somewhere for entertainment, don’t we? 🙂

I’ll admit that I caught an episode just a few days ago in fact, and it didn’t seem as funny as I remembered. But it’s certainly a match for most of the mindless drivel on our stations.

(And if I can hijack this thread for a moment, Will TNT PLEASE bring back Due South (more of Gordon Pinsett’s fine work)???)

Well, I’ve got some duct tape (would you prefer black, red, or the classic silver?), and a camera…

**Ethilrist** : I have a webcam, so if I _ever_ get the urge to tape my breasts with duct tape, you’ll be the first to know.

Oh yeah. I know. That’s how it ended up on TNT in the first place 🙂  
But there were at least 3 seasons of it.  
And I wouldn’t mind seeing a few episodes more than once.

Too late. I commandeered this thread and made it take me to Hoboken.

And because I’m a tad anal, I just discovered that “Gord Pinsett’s” name is actually “Gord Pinsent”.  
Thank you.

Sorry, don’t get TNT up here so I don’t know how they proceed. And BTW, there were 5 seasons of the show. You can go check on the [official Due South website](http://www.duesouth.com/). So, theoretically, you have two other seasons to enjoy Constable Studly DoRight… I mean, Benton Fraser.
