"If you want to go "tourist hunting" along the Maine coast you'll need an experienced native guide. you'll find none better (or funnier) than Maine's own Tim Sample. Hop aboard, as we put the top down on Tim's vintage "Caddy" convertible and cruise the Maine coast in peak tourist season.

No matter where you come from, this is one rib ticklin' video. Filmed before a standing room only crowd at the famous Chocolate Church Performing Arts Center in his hometown of Bath, Maine, this video catches Maine's "comic laureate" in rare form.

Behind the Barn:

It was one of those clear, cool summer nights that seem to cast a spell over the Maine coastline. Hundreds of people gathered on the hillside behind the barn at Roundtop Center for the Arts to enjoy an evening of timeless "Downeast" humor by an acknowledged master of the genre. Tim Sample, whose numerous books, audio and video tapes, and television appearances have contributed to his reputation as one of America's best humorists, joins Bob Bryan as recorded by WGME TV.

" Tourist Huntin' in Maine" is a humorous look at real tourists and real natives as only Tim Sample can present them. This one hour video was shot on location at the peak of "tourist season" in such scenic Maine spots as Boothbay Harbor, Kennebunkport, and Casco Bay. This is totally live, unrehearsed footage of Tim Sample interviewing everyday folks along the Maine coast with absolutely hilarious results!

Postcards from Maine:

"What do you do for excitement around here in the Winter?"

That's a question that summer visitors have been asking Mainers for generations. Tim Sample answers with a grin... "Ayuh, ... what we do mostly is have a WICKED GOOD TIME!!"

Whether you're a native or "from away," Postcards from Maine is more fun than a busload o' tourists and "G-rated" for GRRRREAT family entertainment.
