I should have let you guys know this on Friday or Saturday, but it’s not too late. Tonight, on CBC (The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation) is set to show the movie Strange Brew, which will then be followed by an hour long Bob and Doug McKenzie 20th anniversary show. The special will be aired at 9 p.m. Eastern Time.
I wrote about Bob and Doug in a recent post where I talked about Canadian culture and mentioned that they were Canadian icons. They are quite funny.
The special is also going by the name the “Two-Four Anniversary Special”. In a recent post on my home and garden blog I wrote a post explaining what the Two Four weekend in Canada really is, and how it’s traditionally a major camping and partying weekend.
It’s all about the beer and uh so are Bob and Doug.
It really is too bad that the CBC is showing this special on our first major warmish weather long weekend here in Canada. Don’t they know that half of Canada is camping?
Very interesting! That is too bad about people not being home to watch it.

Ooops! I found out I only had to tell 10 things about myself. You don’t have to tell 18 things. Thanks.
Somewhere my daughter has my “Great White North” LP (not CD, the actual vinyl) of Bob and Doug McKenzie. Remember ‘Take off’?
When I lived in New Hampshire, we could pick up CBC broadcast. That ain’t gonna happen down here in North Carolina. ::: sigh ::: I wish that I could see the 20th Anniversary show … eh. Will you blog about it, please?
Your two-four weekend sounds alot like our Memorial Day weekend. 3 days off, lots of people camping. Thats coming up this weekend.
I am such a hoser because i missed the show while I was drinking a six pack and eating some back bacon eh. Coo roo coo coo coo roo coo coo!
I missed it! *pout*
But if anyone is feeling nostalgic for Bob and Doug’s 12 Days of Christmas, you can listen to it here: http://www.weirdgrrl.ca/samples/BobNDougMcKenzieChristmas.mp3
