The Kids in the Hall is not only one of the funniest things to come out of Canada, it is also one of the funniest things we have ever watched on television. Five guys from the Great White North formed a sketch comedy troupe in the mid-80s that begat a hugely influential TV show that aired from 1988-1994 on HBO and helped kickstart the 90’s sketch show renaissance. With oddball characters placed in mundane situations, the show’s humor was always dark, strange and hilarious. But when they inserted mundane characters into the strange and absurd, that’s when they gave us some classic bits. It’s a show that definitely influenced us, and one we quote often, so we figured it was about time to give it a proper salute. Here’s to The Kids in the Hall! We’re crushing your heads…!
