Kids in the Hall

Quick - name the funniest sketch comedy show of all-time.
Saturday Night Live
?
OK - name the funniest Canadian sketch comedy show of all-time.
SCTV?
OK - name the second funniest Canadian sketch comedy show of all-time.
Kids in the Hall? Correct!

Although this show always had a cult following, it deserved to be much bigger than it was; some of the sketches were all-time classics, and the cast was solidly funny. (Too bad you rarely see any of them doing much these days).

In America, they aired originally (uncut) on HBO. For some time, they were on CBS (Friday nights, in the days before Letterman arrived) - but most people remember the show being on Comedy Central.

Get ready to laugh - here is one of their funniest sketches.
