Editorial Reviews

I was disappointed at the lack of original material on this disc. It is some of their best sketches - word for word - performed onstage, including the Chicken Lady and Kathy and Cathy. There is a new Buddy Cole sketch which is lukewarm, a likewise mediocre Headcrusher skit and the Dr. Suess bible thing...whaaa?\n\nI'm glad I only rented this and not purchased it, but it does give you a Kids fix if you really need it. Why can they can put Friends and that junk out on DVD season by season but no Kids? Come on! Kids on DVD! Kids on DVD!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hopefully, this DVD will become obsolete, June 22, 2003

Evil Lincoln (Dayton, Ohio) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Kids in the Hall: Tour of Duty (DVD)

This is the best us Kids fans are going to get until the original episodes make it to DVD (cross your fingers). However, it's a good DVD that captures a pretty good performance. Most of the classic characters make an appearance, including the Head Crusher, Simon Milligan & Hecubus, Gavin, and a good new monologue from Buddy Cole (dealing with, of course, dressing in drag in Afghanistan), among others.

Essential for all KITH fans, but it will become obsolete when we get the episodes on DVD.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kids In The Hall LIVE ON STAGE!, November 9, 2002

By 

Bryan VanCampen (Ithaca, NY) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Kids in the Hall: Tour of Duty (DVD)

Everyone who saw the Kids In The Hall on their 2002 "Tour Of Duty" had to be hoping that a home video version of the show would come out - and now here it is! While I can't remember every single sketch the Kids did - in my case, at the Landmark Theatre in Syracuse - rest assured - a lot of classuc characters like Simon Milligan and the Head-Crushing Guy make appearances, as well as a few new sketches written post - 9/11.
The cast really responded to the energy of a live show, though on the night I saw them, Kevin McDonald was pretty much voted Kid In The Hall Most Liable To Break Up During A Sketch.
This was a very skillfully performed sketch show with terrific, functional screen backdrops and excellent sound. If you loved the KITH live, you'll want to own the DVD or video.
