Season 2 • Episode 13
LatestMillie decides that she'll only be truly appreciated after she's gone, and so wants to have her funeral now, so that she can see just how much she'll be missed. Stan tries to assist Crystal and her boyfriend with their new status as parents, but winds up babysitting instead of life coaching.
Millie Upton is a successful children's author who's prone to flying off the handle. Stan Dirko is Millie's less-than-qualified life-coach. Together, they work through Millie's...err...unpredictable spasms. It's a case of the lost leading the lost, with the best of intentions and very little chance of success.
Acting
Nancy Robertson's physical comedy is unhinged perfection.
Writing
Brent Butt's signature awkward pauses hit different here.
Production
Vancouver standing in for... Vancouver, refreshingly.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Brent Butt created this immediately after Corner Gas ended, basically keeping the entire production family employed in Vancouver.
This was CBC's attempt to capture Butt's magic twice—it's basically 'what if Corner Gas characters had actual problems and no small-town charm?'
