Yes,totally high concept and brilliant. So great this stuff is up there totally legally AND with interviews with them! According to this, "Love and Sausages" really got Bruce in trouble with the rest of them.

canucktvwatcher April 21, 2014 Share April 21, 2014 (edited) Ah man, I love this show! I used to watch it in high school years ago during its initial run, and I was shocked that CBC let so many things slide! I also had the good fortune of seeing these guys live on stage, and I had good seats - about 5 rows back. They are as good, if not better, live, than they are on the show. These guys are amazing improv comics! My favourite sketches are many; "Mad With Power" ("Perkins! Get under your desk!"), "Bear Attack", "Worker's Compensation", "Are you laughing at my car?", "The Jean Jacket" (the one where the guy trades his jean jacket to Satan for a weed dreadlocks), and anything with The Sizzlers. So many I can't remember here, so many classics! This show was consistently great....there were some duds, but most of the time it was awesome!

Iguana August 13, 2014 Share August 13, 2014 Wow, I loved this show back in the late '90's, early 2000, when it first aired. I still see occasional reruns on the comedy channel. These guys made the most convincing women of any comedy show ever. Loved it when Dave Foley played the French hooker and Scott played the housewife/mother in all those sketches. And Bruce as the vapid, self absorbed teen pop star Tammy was always good for a laugh. I still smirk when I remember two of the Chickenlady skits, one when she's riding the kid's horsey ride outside a store and keeps asking for quarters, and the other when she and the bearded lady go to visit her childhood home, only it isn't. But my favourite was always anything with the glamorous gay, Buddy Cole. His dialogue pushed the censors to their limits, no doubt.

scowl September 15, 2014 Share September 15, 2014 The two "Will Do" sketches are my favorites. I've loaned too much stuff to people in my life and never got anything in return but empty promises. Kevin McDonald played a perfect manipulative psychopath: continuous monotone like he's reading off a card, not a trace of emotion, and always looking like he's staring at something ten feet behind your head while never blinking. Even in prison, he wins. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3092-the-kids-in-the-hall-general-discussion/#findComment-378150

Lady Iris April 20, 2016 Share April 20, 2016 One of my absolute FAVES was the Chicken Lady on a date. She made the omlette from eggs she got from her own 'booooody!' I would occasionally call a friend at work who was also a KITH fan and tell him I had something from my boooody for him. This was a great show. SO happy to see a thread here for it! Oh my word, Dave's face when he's told the eggs were fresh, right out of her body, is pure horrified genius. I was beyond thrilled to see them live in Boston 2014. Loved them for ages. I was sick for a month back in the mid 90's with pneumonia and I'd just watch their shows on tape. They helped me get through that awful time. So many favorites, definitely love SAUGAGES for sure. I've had a crush on each one of them at various times to boot. Loved Mark McKinney in the Tucker/mouse trap skit. "Mouse pooped in my bread, ate my bread" and "Now I know where you live, now I know where you live". Where is my indian drum??? Look skyward moron!!! No drum no party! The Do Re Mi sing along with all of them. Its just a happy little thing that always makes me smile. Dave Foley as the hillbilly who gets kicked in the head by the cow with Kevin and Mark as his befuddled brothers, "He appears to be having diff-ICK-ulty getting the salt."
