About the Show:
The paint may be peeling, the taps leaking and there may be an unpleasant smell here and there ... but there's never been a better time to move into Robson Arms.
Season 3 begins as a patriotic American, Chuck Hoskins (Dave Foley, NewsRadio), takes over everyone's favourite building in Vancouver's West End. Together with his wife, Trixie (Allison Hossack, Falcon Beach), and her top-secret barbecue rub, Chuck organizes a "meat 'n greet" for his eclectic group of tenants. The new landlords seem as sweet as apple pie - but it turns out this pie has a hair in it. As the season unfolds, Chuck and Trixie's true intentions are revealed.
Some of our residents buy into the Hoskins' grand vision of what he wants Robson Arms to be, while others are too busy to notice, as their lives continue to evolve or unravel: Sault (Alisen Down) discovers the dark side of positive thinking; Fred (Haig Sutherland) and Alicia (Jane McGregor), with help from Fred's frenetic and "sensitive" co-worker, Bark (Will Sasso), explore the strange new galaxy of newlywed life; Bobbi (Gabrielle Miller) learns that life can sometimes be just like high school; resident slacker Hal (Zak Santiago) gets his patience tested when his dad pulls up in an RV and moves in with he and roomie Nick (Fred Ewanuick); Carol (Linda Kash) chooses between Mr. Wrong and Mr. Wronger; while Geoff (David Richmond-Peck) and Stanley (Kevin McNulty) have man trouble of their own; and Yuri (John Cassini) makes a life-changing discovery which leads to a dramatic decision.
By the end of the season, the chaotic lives of the tenants and machinations of the new owners intertwine, causing rifts between friends and creating unlikely allies, while Robson Arms' future hangs in the balance.
