{television} the kids in the hall; season one (1989)

In their weekly show, Canadian sketch comedy troupe The Kids in the Hall -- Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson -- turned the mundane into the surreal with their edgy, zany characters and stories. The series, produced by Saturday Night Live's Lorne Michaels, featured the exploits of Cabbage Head, Chicken Lady, Cathy and Kathie, Head Crusher and more. This series contains the entire first season.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: *** Highly underrated. Not the funniest stuff in the world, but it had some great comic moments. Much of the content took me back to my childhood when they first aired and I enjoyed some of the skits more now and enjoyed others more back then (like Head Crusher which just isn't funny to me now, but was hilarious when I was a kid.) The whole cast is very funny and they have great chemistry together. They are all HILARIOUS in drag!
