  • One of my favourites belong side Monty Python.

  • why is the entire monologue in the description? what is wrong with you?

  • @donavon search reasons assbutt

  • Did they borrow SCTV's laugh track guy? The laffs were oddly placed in the opening dialogue.

  • Comment removed

  • I miss Kids in The Hall. Up until a few years ago you could catch reruns on Comedy Central but they have since done away with it.

  • lol 

  • @crestfallen999

    British humor tends to go over your head at times.

  • I remember leftovers which I had thrown out over my yard in the middle of winter.

    Frozen as they were, they were there in the spring, as if nothing had happened, lol! xD

  • awww spring!

  • I missed out on this show since i was born in the United States and it was on HBO or the CBC but Great Brittian, Canada and the United States to some extent can come up with unbelievably hillarious shows. Like kids in the Hall thier are short, quirky and bizzare and unlike other sketch shows like SNL it would take a sketch 10 minutes to complete this show was shoert and straight to the point.

  • Thanks so much for including the opening titles as well!!

    Kids in the Hall and Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet...the perfect Canadian icons.

  • I use to love to get stoned and watch this show. fuckin great.

  • You gotta love Scott!

  • "Death comes to Town" isn't the same, but I just about laid an egg when I saw the chicken lady make a cameo on the witness stand. Its good to see that its the whole troupe thats back and not just 3 or 4 of them with the others being sticks in the mud.

  • Overall it was fun to watch :D

  • I used to watch them on CBS late night. I miss the show.

  • Are any of the other (season) openings on Youtube?

  • love that late 80's toronto background. everything's just different and bland now.

  • I think that is true with most places today corpatization of towns and cities across North America

  • I like Dave and Mark's little entrances. They look cute :)

  • I always wondered why they never had any girls on this show. I think they all just liked cross dressing.

  • Best show......in the world!

  • Best Theme Song.......EVER.

  • Easily. I would have loved to have been there when they filmed the show live. The band would always play it live before each recording.

  • @VorpalTheRabbit Harcore. The song just so perfectly fits the rebellious, "this is funny and we we don't care what you think" attitude of the show.

    Never was there a more badass-cool comedy troupe.

  • True...I don't think they'v ever apologised for any of thier bits.

  • It really is, too bad aside from Adult Swim there is nothing like it on TV today.

  • Oh yeah...I remember this back when I was in Jr. High. This show was hilarious!

  • i remeber this from like kindergarten

  • lol. I'm just thinking about Mr. Bean and this show...and also The Office

  • Funny Canadians:

    The Kids in the Hall

    Mike Myers

    Rick Moranis

    Bill Murray

    Dan Ackroyd

    John Candy

    Michael J Fox

    Jim Carrey

    The list goes on...

  • True, Bill Murray IS hilarious but he's not Canadian...Phil Hartman, on the other hand, is both hilarious and Canadian!

  • Also Brit shows like The Young Ones and New Statesman (Rik Mayall in general). Most people like Monty Python but I've got mixed feelings about it. Eddie Izzard, of course, is funny. Yep. Brits and Canadians.

  • the opening theme reminds me of the season of summer

  • I remember on sick days when I was in school I'd watch SNL (early 90s episodes) and Kids in the Hall in the afternoons. Now the only reason I watch Comedy Central is for The Daily Show and the Colbert Report, and I can watch most of that online anyway.

  • Love the show but the theme music always seemed kinda macabre and sad to me for a comedy show.I guess it just suited the kinda show it was;bizarre,unusual and original in itself.Toronto seemed like an anti-showbiz place which lent its vibe to it like northern exposures theme music.

  • There's nothing macabre about Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet.

  • True,but the song "Having An Average Weekend" isn't the usual coked up yuppie excitement of SNL's theme or MadTV

  • Yeah, it always seemed like a sad song to me. Most of their music isn't like that, but this and 5 American 6 Canadian stand out to me.

    It always brings back good high school memories.

  • Man I love this song. I used to stay up late when I was 8 to watch this show on HBO. I didn't fully understand it but I always laughed.

  • My uncle used to watch this when he babysat me when i was a kid. The theme song has been imprinted into my mind since early childhood. I love KITH.

  • The opening song, if I learned guitar this would be the first song I would learn.

  • Kids in the hall was kind of like Mad Tv, In Living Color, Monty Python and Saturday Night Live Candianian style but it also raised the bar to what sketch comedy could do and proved the sky is the limit like what Chapelles Show and The Whitest Kids U Know are doing right now taking even further.

  • Anybody fucks with the Kids, they fuck with me.

    Bring it.

  • @KD20850 Will they be eeeeeeeliminated?

  • I love the opening music. Does anybody know the name of it and who did it?

  • Sure do! It's an instrumental by the band Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet and the song is called Having an Average Weekend.

  • Thanks for the quick reply. :)

  • @PrinceXantar

    I'm playing this song at my funeral! :D

    I'll be the coolest corpse ever!

  • Love Kids In The Hall. My new band, The Twang Tens, have new material in part inspired by Shadowy Men -- a group that although they never wanted the label, helped forge the instrumental Surf music revival in the early 90s, which is now an international underground music phenomenon.

  • that was hilarious!

  • mmmm,q buen video,lastima q no conocen al teleninio.... saludos!
