It's A Wonderful Red Green Christmas
Season 9 (1999-2000)
This season, the primary star of The Red Green Show, Harold Green, played by Patrick McKenna, had reduced screen time. In the story, Harold got a job in the city, and Red would visit him briefly in his office from time to time.
At the start of each episode, Harold would introduce Red. Starting with this season, Harold no longer did this, so Red walked into the lodge with no announcement for the rest of the show's run. Segments that Harold hosted prior to this season, such as the "Possum Lodge Word Game" and "The Experts," were now hosted by Mike Hamar, Dalton Humphrey, and Winston Rothschild III.
Rick Green, who played Bill Smith on The Red Green Show, left the series for four years. While he was gone, the "Adventures with Bill" segment continued with Walter (Joel Harris) and with Mike, Dalton, and Winston, and was simply called "Adventures."
That season, a new segment called "Life and Times" was introduced. Red narrated the segment in a documentary style, which featured biographies of past residents of Possum Lake. The segment continued until Season 10.
