Curiosidades

The animated show brings back the original cast from the live-action version of Corner Gas (2004), except for Janet Wright (Emma Leroy) who passed away in November 2016. Her part is now voiced by Corrine Koslo.

Typically, Hollywood studios conduct individual cast recordings for their animated series and features. For Corner Gas Animated, the entire cast recorded each episode together, virtually synchronized in real time out of two studios in Toronto and Vancouver. The producers felt it was the next best thing to having a set, allowing the actors to play into their natural chemistry, leading to a more authentic result.

Brent drew the original concept art of the Corner Gas sign that appears in the original Corner Gas sitcom, Corner Gas: The Movie and Corner Gas Animated.

The words "Dog River" were painted on the side of the grain elevator in Rouleau, SK, during the shooting of the original Corner Gas sitcom and they remain there to this day.

Corner Gas Executive Producers Brent Butt, David Storey and Virginia Thompson had talked about the idea of an animated version of the series when making the original sitcom because of Brent's love of comics and his talent as an illustrator. They never took the idea seriously until after Corner Gas: The Movie when fans demanded more Corner Gas.
