I went to high school just outside of Winnipeg. Our sociology teacher showed us Reds in 1985, and I distinctly remember Warren Beatty mentioning Winnipeg, and the murmur of the class. And this was in the middle of my obsessive personal interest in the 1919 General Strike!
lol, Winnipeg exists, I live here. Its really nice in the summer and the winters kinda suck sometimes. -38 here today and got frostbite while out snowmobiling. You just have to know how to dress for the weather.
About 45 years ago I sat down with my dad to watch the 39 steps ... First time I'd ever heard Winnipeg mentioned in a movie, I've never forgotten it, I danced around the living room. BTW, the novel The 39 Steps was written by a former Governor General of Canada. Extremely obscure Winnipeg mention: The Mean Farmer radio sketch. When CKND picked up David Letterman's show, they ran a roll of words you could spell with the letters in Winnipeg. After a while, they were just nonsense mishmashes of letters.
I also live in Winnipeg!!! My Winnipeg by Guy Maddin is great. Winnipeg is great. I'm from Newfoundland and I can't get enough of the prairie good times!
I was just in downtown Winnipeg for a doctor's appointment on Monday. Did a bit of shopping at The Bay, had lunch at the Pizza Hut on Donald Street, then went to the Value Village on Jefferson Avenue......if I wasn't in Winnipeg, then where was I??
Surprised at how many mentions Winnipeg has, and that the other Simpson's mention of the city (the episode where Homer smuggles prescription drugs from Canada) wasn't in this video.
Slurpee capital OF THE WORLD 17 years and counting - and that's only counting 7-11 slurpees sold! If you factor in macs slushies, hush puppies and icee sales we probably beat out the entire world in sales (not just all the rest of Canada) every month.
when i was travelling across the country for the 2005 Trans-Canada Pearl Jam tour i remember we picked up a hitch-hiker just before Wawa on the sole account he had a cardboard sign that read "Pearl Jam" on it. any chance that was you?
Hey! you missed the reference to Winnipeg in newsradio season three. The episode where Andy Dick's character returns from Japan.. then we find out he didn't actually go to Japan... Dave Thompson says "as exotic as Winnipeg I bet?" or something like that.
this is great! gotta love our city. the scene in the beverely hillbillies episode had them flying over winnipeg. the other reference that is missing is from murphy brown when they were at a corporate retreat with bankers from winnipeg.
If your going to make another video about Winnipeg mentions there is an episode on the X-Flies Season 1 Episode 9 "Space" They mentioned that astronomers in Winnipeg seen a broken shuttlecraft in space. Hope this helps :)
That last Simpson's clip? Definitely my family on our many trips out of town! XD By the way, is that Alan Rickman at 3:27? If so I squeed in fangirlish delight.
@memphisbelle06 *Facepalm* Just search Winnipeg on Google. Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada - Winnipeg is the capital city of the Canadian province Manitoba, and it is also the largest city in the province with a population of about 700,000 people. Winnipeg is also a fairly popular tourist destination.
@treeboy113 If you're from Winnipeg you laugh at -40'C BTW I like how that guy answered a Canadian distance question in Imperial instead of Metric. Fail :P
A new one to add: On Lipstick Jungle, Wendy was in charge of a biopic of John Lennon starring an actor who was dying of cancer. He died so the movie wasn't made, but before he died, she was at the board room table with other execs, and she said to them, "Now, tell me how you're going to make Winnipeg look like Liverpool." (Hey, it should be easy to make Winnipeg look like Liverpool with some of the weather we get. Not to mention using.....The Cavern!)
It's funny how Winnipegers get so defensive about their "one great city" last time I lived there it was like I stepped back about twenty years in time (mentality). I got about thirty years of WPG under my belt so don't deny it!!!
this is so frikin hilarious!! too bad they didnt include the sign in the Simpsons episode that says "Now Entering Winnipeg - We Were Born Here, What's your Excuse" Bwahahahaa!!
Boy I live in Winnipeg
Cookerrope 8555 me to
Cookerrope 8555 same

The Simpsons was the best. The Office went to Winnipeg as well and you can add a scene from Gone Girl.
That's it! Back to Winnipeg.
Hearing Winnipeg mentioned on the Simpsons was the highlight of my childhood

SWEET GUINNEPIG OF WINNIPEG, A WINNIPEG HUB!
Winnipeg is mentioned in the deleted scenes of Twilight.
If you ever do another one of these you should use that. There's a huge hype over twilight.
Recent mentions include Master of None as well as Fargo Season 2
The Devil's Gate too.

Ah, Winnipeg! Don't deride it if you haven't tried it. The center of the continent. And we are proud of it!!
lol, Winnipeg exists, I live here. Its really nice in the summer and the winters kinda suck sometimes. -38 here today and got frostbite while out snowmobiling. You just have to know how to dress for the weather.
I live in Winnipeg :/
I'm shocked they didn't include a clip from the episode where The Office goes to Winnipeg.
Winnipeg has also been mentioned on:
The Avengers (1960s)
The Beverly Hillbillies (1960s)
Murphy Brown
that was really quite cool finding all those movie clips mentioning Winnipeg. Great job putting it all together.
That's the Simpson episode I was talking about. Thanks for sharing. Be well. 👍😎
Manitoba is referenced in Episodes as well. Obviously Kevin smiths Yoga Hosers and Tusk were situated in Winnipeg (yet not filmed in Winnipeg)

As someone who lives in Winnipeg, I can personally guarantee the rest of the world that it really doesn't exist at all. Not in any way you'd notice.

There was a episode of the Drew Carry show where they mentioned Winnipeg 5 or 6 times in 30 seconds.Must be a record.
