From a media release:

Fans Get Their Fill of Dog River Antics with THE CANADA DAY CORNER-GAS-A-THON on The Comedy Network

  • CORNER GAS hijacks The Comedy Network with 19-hour marathon of final season

On July 1, The Comedy Network stands on guard for their country and… CORNER GAS! In celebration of Canada’s birthday, The Comedy Network kicks the patriotic laughs into high gear with THE CANADA DAY CORNER GAS-A-THON. Fans can get an early start to the celebrations with a double-shot of the final season of Canada’s most successful comedy series. The first run of the 19-episode Season 6 airs 4 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. ET/PT, followed by a second airing from 1:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. ET/PT. Viewers experiencing withdrawal from CORNER GAS can get their fix of hilarious high jinks from Brent, Oscar, Emma, Lacey, Hank, Davis, Karen and Wanda.

Canadians love their country, and they love their CORNER GAS. What better way to celebrate being a Canucker than with THE CANADA DAY CORNER GAS-A-THON?!

Family, friends and fireworks aside, viewers can now celebrate their true-north-strong-and-free by filling up on this iconic, all-Canadian comedy series. Here’s what one needs to prepare: One extra-padded couch; 19 hours worth of brewskis (light ales accepted but not encouraged); seven straws; a boat-load of chilli cheese dogs and a bucket. Once fully equipped, viewers can relive each gut-busting CORNER GAS moment. Watch as Lacey competes in an eating competition in “Full Load,” Karen and Davis win a meat lottery in “Meat Wave”, and Dog River tune out in “TV Free Dog River.” Then, follow the gang to the big city…er…Regina, as they discover the reason behind Brent’s regular Wednesday night disappearances in the climactic series finale, “You’ve Been Great, Goodnight.”

The series finale of CORNER GAS aired April 13 and marked the end of an era in Canadian television with more than 3 million viewers, making it one of the most-watched television broadcasts in Canada this season.

Viewers craving a regular fix of CORNER GAS can savour each character and moment again…and again with encore episodes available on demand at thecomedynetwork.ca and CTV.ca and on the go at itunes.ca.
