Kids In The Hall - what's your favorite sketch(es)

http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/3226/kidsinthehalldeathcomes.jpg

Anyone else into Death Comes to Town? I've watched the first seven episodes and think it's great, maybe even more consistently good than the original KitH. (I may regret that statement.) It is incredibly un-PC and I do feel bad about (laughing at) some of the jokes at Ricky's expense.

I watched the first 2 episodes drunk and it was great stuff to watch while drinking. Since I'm in USA I had to watch from a bootleg site. When I watched the two episodes again sober it wasn't as good (mostly the 2nd episode) but I really want to watch all the episodes together so I'm gonna wait until there is a better way to get all the episodes... ideally I want them on DVD (and make the show a part of a small drinking party)

:)

(I realize I already typed that all upthread but I'm still excited)

(Just finished the eighth.)

I do think it's worth it. The last half of the series is really good, especially the courthouse scenes.

so far i've only watched 4 eps but they've seemed to get better and better after a slow start so i'm excited to finish them. i kinda hate watching shows on my computer, though, and am really hoping this comes out on DVD sooner than later.

World's biggest crouton = not on youtube

:(

I am enjoying Scott Thompson's podcast so far, even if it's mostly about Scott Thompson.

I think it is indescribably funny that his website is scottland.com

Ok, I seem to have made that up in my mind.

No, he definetely used to have scottland.com.

I'm two episodes into this new thing. I'm a little underwhelmed - I thought they'd do something a little higher quality like that movie/doc about them being on tour from a few years back. That was cool. This thing is very shoestring. But it's great to see them back and I'm glad they are still trying new things (kinda - owes a huge debt to the superior League of Gentlemen obviously). It's enjoyable but some of the gags are pretty poor and there's not enough of them. Kevin seems underused - he's hardly in episode 2 at all. Still looking forward to the rest of the series though.

i think i had too high hopes for this. i never made it past ep 3, i think.

Cyril St. Joh, the Escapist

the pictures of him as an old man in his straightjacket looking out at the sea are perfect

Plus all the people they interview about TV

I love STEPS too – "I've learned that talking about issues makes people angry."

Season 4 was so string

It was also, less notably, quite strong.

Oh man I have no idea how The Cincinnati Kid (v. the Toronto Kid) did not come up in this thread!

Speaking of season 4 greatness, this has the very best description of Cheers ever.
"You turn on the TV and there is Woody, with the charming Woody head. Carla with the big mouth. Norm with all his beer. And Cliff, with his secret!"

always put salt in your eyes

the pear dream is the greatest comedy sketch ever

tamtam otm

I know this is not the thread for it, but has anyone read the Danny Husk graphic novel?

belllll... bivvvvv... devoooooe.

danny husk graphic novel?? i did not even know that existed, abbott!

did scott KO his cancer?

citizen kane! it was... citizen... kane...

I would buy the Danny Husk graphic novel if I ever saw it anywhere. which I have not

i have the buddy book somewhere here...

the pear dream was one that i saw one night when i was almost asleep and i thought i dreamt it, and didn't see it for years after and was really convinced that i'd imagined it.

Scott has said in interviews that his cancer is gone.

wonderful news!! Scott is total all-time bro, love that guy

haha i'd never watched the youtube in this post so i imagined it as something Bruce would say, was surprised to see it was actually Scott-as-Francesca.

got the complete series box set (which i found out on some other ILE thread was only like $35 on Amazon! incredible deal!), it's really fun to occasionally stumble upon the sketches or in some cases entire episodes that were never in rerun rotation on Comedy Central.

this is just gravy. i think of lines from this all the time.

the way Mark says "oh poppy poppy poppy no no no" in a Scottish accent while haggling over the price of a velvet Elvis painting has semi-unconsciously become a staple of my daily speech

TV or Movie references that only you seem to recall and quite often at that

^because I sort of wish people use this thread more often

"Let's have another hand for the Living Tableau!"

The one I mentioned five years ago upthread:

A lot of the bits with Bruce pontificating or fucking around by himself are among my favorites.

I think of the phrase "hateful jazz music" all the time, thanks Brucio.

ha it's "hateful freeform jazz" <3

Waaaaaaaitaminute. So I'm poking around in the KITH sketches on YouTube and I come across this, a sketch I've somehow never seen before:

Apparently they replaced "The Dr. Seuss Bible" with this at some point?
