Does anyone else feel like a complete idiot based on how ridiculously popular this has become?

LOL, this was a great thread.

I was talking to my brother in law (who works at shaw) the other day about this. He said that on Dec 25, the fireplace arm guy is the top viewed show!

Does Superstore here sell them? They used to sell the DVD/VHS in the Fort McMurray Superstore.

No, and I'm disappointed that I have Bell rather than Shaw right now. No FPAG for me.

I'm going to start my own television network based solely on this premise.

Hey! I saw the guy! Put a nice piece of kindling to stablize the entire operation.

Anyway, what's with all the early Christmas stuff this year? I already see houses with lights, and we still have yet to see a real snow fall... I refuse to put up my light until November 25th, but I may do so earlier if weather is good.

edit: There was really a Turkey basting?

When I read the article this morning and it mentioned TBG - I seriously regretted missing it - was he on this year?

Last year was pretty lame because we switched to digital cable and found out Fireplace arm guy WITHOUT MUSIC was a paid-for feature. The only FPAG we got was the lame one with cheesy music.

It's not good without the ambience of feeling like just a simple fire with crackling embers.

The article says it is on StarChoice - I'll be sure to check it out.

You people are so oddly excited for this. But I've never seen this before, so I have no right to judge.
