An Impossible Choice: Kids In the Hall

whenever I see a car chase in a movie now all i can think of is Bruno Pontz-Jones snickering ("Americans, always with the car chase, eh. And the happy ending, with the puppy licking the face")

when i was 12 and obsessed with KITH i was in love with david foley
now that i am older when i watch the show i definitely get more big laughs from bruce. BRUCE ALL THE WAY.

bruce in a walk, excepting his post-KITH career

Bruce as rock n' roll teenager

"fucking good ham. oops, i mean, fine ham abounds mom."

not.... jazz!

They were all great women, but Mark could be eerily authentic sometimes. He gets my vote just for playing the temp in the Kathy skits alone. ("Mondays, huh? Ugh!")

"The cute as a species don't age well"

i'm just watching KITH clips on youtube now

(his shirt says HOOS on it)

it's a toss up between bruce mckinney and kevin mcculloch. that mark mcdonald is sure funny too tho.

<i>Every time I come to this city, some guy picks me up at the bus station, takes me to a Leafs game, gets me pissed, and then tries to blow me. Why can't people like me for me?</i>

hello italics code. sorry.

my real answer: bruce

in n/a's clip, bruce's shirt sez 'HOOS'

bruce is a walk?
MY PEN!! MY PEN!! IT'S THE ONE I DO ALL MY WORK WITH!!

share a doob with your old man, son?

that's cool. i'll split it with my lawyer.

is there anyone on ilx that doesn't like kids in the hall? i don't think i know anyone irl. maybe this is the one thing everyone can come together on.

i have one friend who claims to not like it.

we're not that close.

i know a guy who likes 'the whitest kids you know'

everyone I know that's seen it digs it

I like The Whitest Kids You Know.

I also know people who don't like the Kids in the Hall. The same type of people who'd never spend all day on ILX. Makes you think.

xxxxpost i took a lot of convincing but im definitely warming up to it. esp the mom/dad/teenager in the kitchen skits. i still cant stand the on stage "hi...Im dave foley..blah blah blah <insert something terribly clever>" skits though.

sunny comes around!

oh Foley did some great monologues, though. he's the man with a positive attitude toward menstruation!

also: the bad doctor

really I'd probably lean toward voting for Bruce (Shame Based Man is definitely in my top 3 comedy albums of all time, been meaning to pick up his other CD), but with all the love for him here I might go with someone else.

i thought of kenan when I saw the menstruation one

btw pp and i have been watching these from the beginning since january. it the first time for me. i can see how you could absolutely love this show if you first saw it in college

my favorite solo scott sketch:

I have more friends who look like Bruce. Runner-up would be Mark.

Here's one of 'em:

I occasionally see people around that look like Kevin, but frankly, they kinda scare me.

oh, i love the on-stage sketches.

"i'm sorry for causing all that cancer."

I'll vote Bruce, but Kevin could take any of them at his best.

"Maybe I'll grow a beard..."

"the beard stays, you go!"

Just... click on the link.

Beard is superclassic

is there anyone on ilx that doesn't like kids in the hall?

Ned doesn't like it iirc.

ban ned.

i'm not sure why, but this is one of my favorite KITH sketches

life is a pretty sweet fruit

i was looking for the "oh my hip!" one where bruce seduces his mother's elderly friends. i love when dave comes out of the kitchen with a tray of cocktails saying "i found these martinis in the crisper!" kills me every time.

fuck the bank i work for ... fuck the b-b-b-baaaank

censored version ;_;

i can't find the video, but i love the drunk as a crow sketch.

Bruce: Oh, good for you, Stephen, you're drunk, you're stupid, and you're in a hotel, are you happy, Stephen, are you happy?

Kevin: I am sober, fatso!

Bruce: Yeah, Stephen, I'm fat, I'm very fat. Tell me, are you drunk because you're stupid, or are you stupid because you're drunk?

...

Kevin: My minibar is empty- it's so small! [looks at the empty minibar]

Bruce: How'd it get empty, Stephen?

Kevin: I emptied it.

Bruce: Why?

Kevin: Consumption.

Bruce: Well, my minibar is empty as well.

Kevin: Ah-ha! You're drunk! [loses his balance and falls back onto the bed]

Bruce: Yes I am, but I'm not stupid, Stephen. Now listen, all I've got left is the champagne, the playing cards, and the cashew nuts. Now, do you want them?

Kevin: Yes.

Bruce: Alright. I'll send them over, Stephen, but listen, Stephen, for God sakes, don't play cards for money because you're drunk, and don't drink the champagne to celebrate how stupid you are. Eat the cashews and go to bed, and when you wake up, which'll be a half an hour from now, you'll say, "My God, I got drunk and spent eleven dollars on a handful of cashew nuts, boy am I stupid, luckily I'm no longer drunk."

[Kevin snores into the phone - he's fallen asleep with the phone balanced on his face.]

Bruce: You're drunk, you're stupid, and you're asleep on my phone line, what a frightening apparition you are.

where is the cool dad sketch on youtube? i ACHE for it.
