Brent Butt is back!
Show Notes

The creator, writer, executive producer and star of Corner Gas Animated returns to brioux.tv:the podcast to set up the fourth and final season of his series. The spin-off from the live-action version of Corner Gas is the No. 1 Canadian original on CTV Comedy. So why is this the fourth and final season?  Butt, who has been making TV shows for CTV since 2004, comes up with what he thinks is the answer. He also talks about getting back on the road after his standup comedy act has been shut down for a year-and-a-half due to the pandemic (a tour starts in Ontario this fall). What did he do with his time off the road? Write a book of course. Not the book you'd think he'd write, either.  As for Season Four, several guest star voices are featured, including Mark McKinney in the opener as well as Kim Coates, Simu Liu, Rick Mercer, and former Barenaked Ladies frontman Steven Page. There's even a surprise Hollywood superstar who recorded a voice for the final episode. Who? Butt drops a hint or two but we'll have to wait to find out. The new season of Corner Gas Animated premieres Monday, July 5 on CTV Comedy.
