OT: Comedy, Inc.
I don't know why I just thought of this (probably has something to do with the recent release of "The Kids In The Hall: Season 2" DVD) but I just had to share it for those who may not be the biggest fans of The Kids In The Hall.
Think of all the years of sketch-comedy television. From "Your Show of Shows", to "Monty Python's Flying Circus", on through "In Living Color", and of course, the king of the genre, "Saturday Night Live". Hundreds of shows. Thousands of episodes. A million sketches. But only one of those sketches can hold the title of "Greatest Sketch of All-Time".
Well, I have found it.
"Comedy, Inc." (aka "The 'I want a raise' Guy")from Kids In The Hall episode #303. The greatest sketch of all time- hands down.
Dave Foley and Kevin McDonald at the top of their games. An over-all premise that can only be described as "a total mind fuck". The self-deprecating humor that made KITH the best thing to ever come out of Canada. It's all on display in this masterwork of comic genius. This sketch should be in the Smithsonian.
