Almost Heroes is a lighthearted comedy series that premiered on Showcase in 2011. The show revolves around the adventures of two brothers, Terry and Peter, who own a fledgling travel company called Almost Home Adventure Tours. The company specializes in organizing outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, kayaking, and sightseeing tours in the beautiful Canadian wilderness.

Terry, played by Paul Campbell, is the older brother and the CEO of Almost Home. He is a charismatic and confident businessman who is always looking for new ways to promote and expand his company. Terry is also a bit of a ladies' man, and his romantic escapades often get in the way of his work.

Peter, on the other hand, is more reserved and cautious. He is the company's operations manager and handles the logistics of the tours. Peter is also a talented photographer who documents the stunning landscapes and wildlife of Canada. Despite their differences, Terry and Peter balance each other out and make a great team.

The show's premise is simple: each episode features the brothers leading a group of tourists on a different adventure. However, their plans often go awry, and they find themselves in hilarious and unexpected situations. Along the way, they encounter a colorful cast of characters, including eccentric clients, quirky locals, and rival tour guides.

One of the show's strengths is its gorgeous scenery. Almost Heroes was filmed on location in British Columbia, and the stunning landscapes are a character in their own right. From snow-capped mountains to pristine lakes to dense forests, the show captures the natural beauty of Canada.

Another highlight of the series is Paul Campbell's performance as Terry. He brings a charm and wit to the character, and his comedic timing is spot-on. Terry is often the source of the show's humor, whether it's his failed attempts at flirting or his over-the-top promotional schemes.

The relationship between the two brothers is also a key aspect of the show. Despite their frequent arguments and bickering, it's clear that they care for each other and would do anything to protect their business. Their sibling dynamic adds an emotional depth to the show that balances out the silly humor.

In addition to the main characters, Almost Heroes features a talented supporting cast. Athena Karkanis plays Deb, the company's receptionist, who has a crush on Peter. Lauren Ash is Charlie, a rival tour guide who frequently clashes with Terry and Peter. And Ryan Belleville is Mike, a hapless yet lovable client who often gets into trouble on the tours.

Overall, Almost Heroes is an enjoyable and entertaining show that offers a fun escape into the great outdoors. It's a nice mix of comedy, adventure, and heart, with memorable characters and stunning scenery. If you're looking for a light and easy watch, Almost Heroes is worth checking out.
