(39 x ½-hour series)
Still Standing is a hilarious, irreverent and affectionate adventure into small towns celebrating the people who proudly choose to call those towns home.
The show follows Jonny Harris as he journeys cross-country to explore small towns on the ropes and to meet the locals who remain fiercely loyal to them. By immersing himself in the adventure of their everyday lives, Jonny comes to understand their passion for these places.
In each community, he mines enough material to put on an original stand-up comedy routine for the locals. The light-hearted roast pays homage to his hosts and shows us that no matter what types of hardships Canadians may face in this vast country, there’s warmth, spirit, and most of all, a good laugh to be had.
