The Kids in the Hall is not that funny
 

Everyone seems to love this show for some reason. I never found it funny at all back in the day, but I just downloaded the first season yesterday to give it another chance and wow, it is not funny AT ALL. Like holy shit some of these skits are horrendous. I dunno how anyone could find them funny. A couple of the skits are decent but overall, wow. I dunno.

Some of them yes. Lettuce Head is horrible.

Some of them are golden. Anything with Buddy Guy is great (IMO). I'm also a huge fan of the Citizen Kane sketch. But I can see why you hate it.

yeah i hate kids in the hall it's just gross..

Yeah, not a fan.

Ditto. My best friend's fiancee loves it, but I just...don't. Some of the guys who came out of KITH are funny, but as a whole, the show wasn't.

It's amazing that people treeat this show as though it was a major phenomenon, when it was little more than a cult hit.

Dude, it's not surprising you don't find it funny. YOU'RE IN THE MAJORITY. That's like saying, "i'm a fan of breathing!" or "I don't know why people like herpes so much."

It had some ROFL moments over the years. It's because of Scott Thompson that it had any substantive following. "OMG he's openly gay..."
Then they took that angle and drove it into the ground.

I do.

It has its moments, but yeah it was never more than a cult hit, Like KK said.

Only seen like 1 episode and didn't like it. Hence only seeing 1 episode.

Alot of the people I know love that show. I don't know why.... :?:

it was one of my fav shows

Coulda sworn you liked em 2 years ago

only one good skit comes to mind. overall i'd say they relied too heavily on cross-dressing. a man dressed as an incredibly ugly woman is not necessarilly funny.

They one with them at the poker table in Season 1 is golden too. That skit is fucking hilarious.

lol come on, you don't find Gavin funny?

It was funny when Monty Python did it, but that was also because they had...what's it called...good writing to go along with it.

I've got a rep for anyone who can produce a clip of him on Conan. The funniest thing I've ever seen. Conan was ready to cry. He thought he was going to get fired.

I seem to remember the "caring and feeding your new sex-slave" as being a funny skit.

never seen that. I'd lime to see it tooo

I would lime to, and I would lome to see one of Chapelle's earlier appearances on there as well. Amazing. :love:

They relied on cross dressing because they were originally a five man comedy troupe and had to do all the parts themselves. Not because "Hahahahaha...Guys in drag are FUNNY!"
