Terriers!

Crushing your head!

Anything with Buddy Cole.

And this one. Especially when I had a crush on a Tony.


I didn't remember the coal shovellers at all. "Why not try a little work? Maybe it will help the blackness."  Wise advice.

I really love Creative Possibilities!

Or rather, I did. Now I am not digging it as much.

I like the one where the teacher is explaining that Rock Music is Dying.

I also seem to remember a few other really weird ones that I loved. But I don't remember the plots, if they had them.

I like the one where the guy takes out a hit on the hitman.

All of the album "Shame Based Man" from Bruce is ganz excellent!

Bobby vs. Devil is one that sticks out in my mind.   Also the skit that ends in Kevin having Control blow up the planet.

Also good, but largely related: All three Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet albums.

All good.

Also Also: The Taco Bell jingle from a few years back was the song "Zombie Compromise" by SMoaSP

"Vigil" is just... genius. I never saw what all the fuss about Kurt Cobain was but...

Vigil made me understand, a little.

Oh good god, that's like asking me what my favourite album is! That and now I'm going to have to go and watch all of Kids in the Hall again* (oh, the horrors).

Oh, just about any of the ones with the cops spring to mind. And the trappers, which was the first sketch I ever saw them do has a special place in my heart. And Lonely Sarcastic Guy.

*That said, I've been thinking that since McKinney started turning up on Studio 60, and then since I was passed Slings and Arrows to watch.

This is way too hard... I feel like I'm missing all the wonderful, more subtle ones that don't get burned in your mind, but are excellent when you see them again, but anyway:

"Sausages" of course.

The Chicken Lady Goes Home (the Hudson's Bay jacket when the bus whizzes past her is just fantastic)

30 Helen's - Honesty "...or if he owns his own pool cue!"

"Pit of Ultimate Darkness- Hypnosis" - "Dirty, dirty liar!  Evil, evil white boy!"

Also, Mr. Tisane, the Tea Factory "I'd like some tea please.  Chamomile tea."

I'm not too sure if you party people know this or not, but KITH had a major impact on Canadian society.  It was on basic cable - swearing, gay content and all-round subversiveness on channel two for god's sake!  And at 8 pm CST.  KITH is why gay marriage is legal!  Fuck yeah!

On a more personal level, Dave Foley in a dress and a red wig is why my ideas of gender identity and attraction are broken.

"Cause...uh... something happened to me."

While I was never ATTRACTED to Dave Foley in drag...

I was always highly disturbed by the fact that he flat-out passed as a woman. Completely.

He completely looked like a plain-to-slightly-homely woman. If one of his characters was walking down the street, I would not say "that is a man dressed up like a woman" I would say "that is a slightly unattractive woman".

All of the other Kids were clearly always dudes in drag. Even Scott, the gayest and therefore the one you'd logically think would look most womanly in drag, always looked like a dude in drag... in that hilariously inappropriate kinda way.

But Foley, that dude just looked like a lady I wouldn't be particularly interested in.

Twas and is unnerving.
