I love this show. Like Monty Python if it were done by Matt Stone and Trey Parker in Canada. The Chicken Lady, Cabbage Head, Buddy Cole and lots of the best skits on this one. Plus the cursing hasn't been edited out. Buy it if you are a long time fan, but even better for a new fan who wants to see some of the best Kids routines.

Having taped dozens of episodes off of Comedy Central, I thought this tape was going to be a bunch of repeats. However, I am totally thrilled with it, for three reasons: 1) no irritating beeps over naughty words; 2) apparently, not only does CC omit several sketches per show to add those oh-so-necessary advertisements, but they edit the sketches they do show for time (e.g., "The Best-Looking Man in the World"); and 3) the pilot episode is on this tape! The pilot episode is on this tape!

If you're a big fan of KITH, then you should have this video already! Most of their best skits are included, such as Gavin and the chair, Buddy Cole's Sappho Sluggers, Jaques and Francois, and the outrageous "Comfortable" skit. It's oh so much fun, and more!

This movie is the best. I laughed so hard I fell off my seat. I have watched every episode so far and I think in this movie they gathered all of the best known charaters, and best sketches. Here is a tip: BUY THIS VIDEO. YOU'LL REGRET IT IF YOU DON'T. I own it and watch it every time I need to laugh.

This video is proof positive that Canadians are much funnier per capita then Americans. The Headcrusher bits alone are worth the purchase price. Brilliant!

While watching this video makes one feel inadequate as a woman (why must Dave be so beautiful?!), this is an excellent video. It gives a comprehensive view at their humor (in the first two seasons, which, because they were the primary writers, were the best, I think). While it is great for KITH fans, it is just as great for people shyly dabbling in the pool of KITHdom.

There is no doubt that The Kids in The Hall will one day be properly hailed as the comedic geniuses they are. Currently held upon the pedestal of cult status, The Kids in The Hall enjoy a permanent rerun spot on the Comedy Central channel, where new fans are made each time Chicken Lady or the Head Crusher or Cabbage Head or Mr. Heavy Foot or Buddy Cole or the Stray Business Man makes an appearance. ''The Best of Kids in The Hall'' is the perfect opportunity to introduce these Canadian Wunderkinds to a new fan, or to cherish the good old days when they first aired on HBO (uncensored). Though the collection is far too short, it certainly highlights some of ''the Kids'' best satirical moments,and gives us all a glimpse into the wickedly sharp minds that portray North American life for us in skit form so that we can all understand the American dream just a little bit better.

These guys created some amazing sketches in their time together, sometimes as inspired and inventively hilarious as Monty Python and SCTV at their best. And, for people my age (roughly the age of The Kids), they did more than that--they made me laugh at myself, too. Hilarious stuff here, you honestly can't go wrong.

This video is great. It contains some of the best scenes from canadas funniest comic troupe. The sketch with Bruce playing the little boy is alone worth the price of admisson. If you are a kids in the hall fan you must have this video. Even if you have never heard of the Kids, if you love comedy you need this video.

I'm in loooove, I'm in loooove, I'm in loooooooooooooooooove...

If you get this tape, you will NOT be dissapointed. It doesn't matter if you're Indonesian, Australian, Alaskan or... yes... even Canadian. It doesn't matter if you have a missing limb, or if you keep getting that disturbingly off-color toenail fungus. You WILL enjoy this tape. You WILL. .... Really. You will.

heheheee... btw, I love the fact that so many people who commented on this product are Canadian. ^_^ GO CANADA!!

BUY THIS TAPE!! You'll like it. YOU WILL. *_*
