    Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
    MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting
    ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!
    Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
    christinecarroll122 1,000 words is not nearly enough to express my complete, total, and utter love and devotion for TKITH.I started watching this show on HBO in 1988, when I was 8 years old. I would tune in an hour before my bedtime, and literally laugh my ass off. I really don't think my parents had a clue what I was watching, and thank God. This show was a huge part of my childhood, and shaped my entire view of comedy, and what is truly funny. I was never a Monty Python person. Prime time TV sucked, and made me sick to my stomach most of the time. Later on, The State and Mr. Show came close, but never achieved the absolute comedic excellence of these 5 guys.Besides giving me hours of enjoyment, I really feel this show shaped me to be a better person in so many ways. Growing up in the burbs I had very little exposure to the true stuff of life: alternative lifestyles, class warfare, and the complete ridiculousness of pop culture. If not for this show, I may have become yet another brick in the wall of socially accepted behavior. The Kids taught me it was OK to be weird - that I didn't need to like what everyone else liked. When I first met a gay person, I didn't blink. When I got my first office job, all I could see were the businessman sketches. This show gave me a very unique perspective with which to frame reality, and I'll be forever grateful.I guess this is a pretty serious review about a comedy show, but what the hell. I frigging love these guys.
    OtherBrotherDarryl This show is exceptionally educational. I learned so much in its all-too-brief run...Not only is God dead, but he was also very small.When in groups of 30, women named Helen tend to develop a hive mentality.Never fornicate with a chicken. The repercussions aren't pretty.Axe murderers are very particular about their craft. Don't even bother suggesting a hacksaw.Dave Foley isn't the only Dave that Bruce knows. Dentists: they've got it ALL figured out, man.That bad man is Hitler, and he's *beep*ing that donkey.The difficult thing about being a mass murderer isn't the murdering part. It's the mass part. It's the pace you've gotta keep up--the sheer volume of murdering. After the first time you've killed, the second time, it's easy. The third time, you start to get cocky, so you gotta be careful. You gotta stay humble, or you make dumb mistakes. Having the monkeys doesn't give you the power. A willingness to let them loose does.And last, but certainly not least, I recently learned that Death is coming to town! I welcome him with open arms...
    ematerso This is kind of after the fact but today my husband and I were talking about the Colbert Report which practically had us rolling on the floor last night with its tumbling routine. This led us quite reasonable to KITH. My husband just stumbled on it one night and we became addicts. Don't remember which season that was but our favorite episodes were the chicken, all the farmhouse spots. The QE/11 and the beaver. The office bldg trappers, the "perfect" couple & I loved the thanksgiving dinner skit. I thought all of the actors were terrific and the writing was among the best ever seen on t.v. (Seinfeld is pretty great too) Another reason KITH came to mind is our grandchildren at 14 & 10 I think. . . are ready for this show (maybe with some screening) they have such terrific senses of humor that I can't wait to watch it with them but as I said to my husband, better pad the floor with pillows as they will be falling down laughing!
    velvet_love The Kids in the Hall is possibly one of the greatest shows, ever! It's brilliantly funny and it's such a shame that I can rarely find it on TV. Right, it's great and if you ever get a chance to catch it on the telly--I highly recommend it!
