[4] A hybrid comedy and reality series, the program features actor and comedian Jonny Harris.
In each episode, Harris travels to small Canadian communities which are financially struggling but "still standing" and spends time getting to know the residents and their lifestyles.
At the end of the trip, Harris performs a stand-up comedy show for the town's residents, into which he integrates some of his newfound insights about life in their community.
[1] In the television format, however, clips from the comedy show are interspersed throughout the episode rather than occurring specifically at the end.
[1] Harris said he was "worried that they (local residents) might be apprehensive" about the show and its subject, but found that instead "they were laid back".
[14] As a result of the ongoing pandemic, filming followed screening tests and other protocols, and during the show guests were seated in physically separated cohorts.
Television critic John Doyle, writing in The Globe and Mail, stated that Harris is "extremely good at connecting with the local people".
