5.0 out of 5 stars The Kids Hit Their Stride In Season 3!, September 15, 2005

This review is from: Kids in the Hall - Complete Season 3 (1991-1992) (DVD)

While some considered the 2nd season to be perhaps as funny but slightly less daring than the 1st, this time around everything seems to work perfectly. The concepts are as bold as ever, the insights at times are biting and cynical, the concepts are hilariously absurd yet often executed with nuance (a tough feat) and the boys just seem to have found the perfect chemistry. Their intelligent brand of oddball sketch comedy is now fully mastered coming off smoother than before while thankfully never losing the raw edge of the earlier work.

The 4-disc format of the package remains exactly the same as the first 2 seasons with the actor commentary, compilations of favorite sketches, rare never-seen performances from the Rivoli Theater and cast bios alongside all of the episodes. It's a very solid set of added material though not a total home run in terms of extras; however it's what we've come to expect for the series at this point and the consistency is fine.

Obviously this is a must for fans and I think you'll find this to be the most enjoyable of the 3 sets so far. For newcomers I think this is an easier place to dip into the weird world of KITH since the entire act is a bit more polished.

2.0 out of 5 stars great comedy poor value, October 15, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Kids in Hall: Season 3 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The other reviews are absolutely correct; the Kids in the Hall are astounding. This video, however, contains only two episodes and as such, is of questionable value. If you are a diehard fan and feel you MUST own KIDH merchandise I can certainly recommend this video - otherwise, I discourage the purchase of this video.

I forgot how much good material they turned out...in particular, the 2nd season would have to rate as their best for me, so if you only buy one of their seasons, go with Season 2...By Seasons 4 & 5 they were getting more experimental and expanding the logic and length of their pieces, which is more toward's Bruce's writing (sausages, wigs, etc.)...less funny, but more cinematic in nature...Season 1 was basically sketches in front of a live studio audience, and not much planned in a television-show sort of mentality...I know these thoughts are somewhat random in order, but hey, that's how I watched the boxed set...
