	Metroactive Movies \| Kids in the Hall
		In The Kids in the Hall Brain Candy, the five Kids in the Hall have been unleased on the big screen; and like the upcoming Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie, the transition from television to film isn't quite a complete one.
		The Kids in the Hall formed in 1984 out of an improv group that used to perform at midnight movies in Toronto.
		On their TV show, the Kids in the Hall always embodied the spirit that an audience doesn't have to be led to a punch line like a horse to water.

	The Kids in the Hall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Kids in the Hall was a Canadian sketch comedy group, consisting of comedians Dave Foley, Kevin McDonald, Bruce McCulloch, Mark McKinney and Scott Thompson.
		The Kids frequently appeared on the show in their real life personas rather than as characters, and many sketches dealt directly with the fact that they were a comedy troupe producing a TV show.
		In the last episode, the Kids answered the question about a man who had repeatedly shown up in the background of sketches, dubbed the "Sixth Kid in the Hall" (a nod to Monty Python's 7th Python).

	The Kids in the Hall (Site not responding. Last check: )
		McKinney doesn't think the Kids have changed much since their days performing in clubs around Toronto in the mid '80s: "I mean, we were younger, maybe slightly more brutal with each other, but we're still pretty much just five comedy obsessives with our own little quirks." And, McKinney adds, touring is fun.
		The Kids sold out six shows at the Town Hall Theatre in New York City earlier this month, and extra shows were added in Los Angeles, Toronto, and Washington.
		The Kids in the Hall was never overtly political, with the exception of Scott Thompson's occasional provocative monologues as Buddy Cole.

	Kids in the Hall - Comedy - New York Times
		Often described as the heirs to Monty Python, in influence if not fame, the Toronto-based Kids in the Hall helped redefine sketch comedy in the late 1980s and early ’90s with a show seen in the United States on HBO and, in the late-night hours, CBS.
		Audiences in Montreal, where the Kids unveiled their new show after breaking it in with a few unadvertised performances in Los Angeles in May, would probably have been content with an evening of their greatest hits.
		They were instead treated to 90 minutes of new material; the Kids reprised none of their signature sketches and few of their familiar characters.

	The Kids in the Hall: Complete Season 4 \| PopMatters Television Review
		The Kids excel at creating a world by means of the slightest of gestures, and then uproariously blowing that world to pieces; they are masters of fore-pleasure--a distinction that I am sure would appeal to the Buddy Cole character (performed with particular panache by Scott Thompson).
		The Kids are at their best when puncturing the conventional views many of us (necessarily?) employ in navigating our quotidian lives -- our jobs, our marriages, our friendships.
		Dave Foley recites a letter he is writing to someone in the hospital; of course, he put the man in the hospital by closelining him when that man tried to pass by on a bicycle.

	Dana Kearns on Kids in the Hall
		Focusing primarily upon The Kids in the Hall as my subject of textual and sociocultural analysis, furthermore, I hope to demonstrate both the potential for and the desirability of the accommodation of comedy within Canadian criticism, as well as speculating upon the reasons for its incomprehensible invisibility within Canadian academia.
		The seeds for the Kids' current status as a "bona fide television commodity", both at home and abroad, were planted in the fall of 1989 when they were given their own half-hour series to air on the CBC in Canada and Home Box Office (HBO) in the United States (Ryan 1994:17).
		Dubbed "the thinking cynic's comedy team", the Kids are perhaps best known for the irreverent and self-referential quality that seems to infect so much of their comedy; contempt and the deliberate identity confusion are their trademarks and camp is the means through which they are achieved and expressed.

	The Kids In The Hall - Complete Season 4
		It might be veering into hyperbole to suggest that The Kids In The Hall changed the face of sketch comedy, but it’s fair to suggest that their influence on the sketch comedy that followed is probably greater than the still-kicking uncle dying from cancer of sketch, Saturday Night Live.
		Sure, the later is the grandpappy everyone is forced to acknowledge as an influence, but it’s the Kids’ style that we see more often creep into modern sketch.
		To this day the legacy of The Kids In The Hall is felt in the surreal, scattered and indefinable comedy we see on Comedy Central and MTV, as well as posted on the Internet by people with too much time on their hands.

	BBC - Comedy Guide - The Kids In The Hall
		The Canadian comedy troupe of this name formed in Toronto in 1984; subsequently, two of its members, McCulloch and McKinney, went on to write for Saturday Night Live the creator/producer of which, Lorne Michaels (also a Canadian), having decided that they were ripe for TV stardom.
		Then, in 1988, Michaels produced a Kids In The Hall special for HBO, and a regular series, co-financed by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, followed soon afterwards.
		There were several recurring characters and themes, notably 'the half-human chicken lady', 'the weight-obsessed ladies that lunch', 'office idiot boy', 'the overly aggressive police interrogators' and the 'head crusher', a bizarrely angry individual who squinted at people from a distance and imagined crushing their heads between his fingers.
