[Dr Fate]

1. The one were "the devil/oil companies" keeps Scott from finding pot

...funny as hell.

"I dont NEED it- I WANT IT!!- GET STONED- Hoooo!"

[HEyHEY]

3. "what's the password"

"Gotta get high"

[DrWeird]

2. Scott Thompson is the greatest.

Only thing I've seen him in since is a music video and a cameo on Surreal Gourmet. He needs more work.

[AWD]

12. He was a regular cast member....

...on The Larry Sanders Show.

[glarius]

18. He's back in Toronto....saw him recently on Canadian TV

:)

[SmileyBoy]

26. The greatest gay entertainer in history, IMO.

We love ya Scott.

[Liberal Veteran]

4. The gay character in the bar was called Buddy Cole.

And he was funny as hell.

Although my favorite of all time was Chickenlady as a phone sex operator.

[Dr Fate]

8. I like the dialouge where he describes all these lurid events in his life

...Sugar Daddies and all, and then reveals that all occurred before he turned 15!!!

I saw an interview on Conan right after KITH broke up- he was still doing the Buddy Cole character in his standup-

He recounted some pretty funny stories of him doing that act in some small-town Texas bars and really annoying a bunch of cowboys...I would have loved to have seen that!!!

[Tripper11]

5. STEPS!!!

You forgot steps...the boys ogling all the other boys!!

[U2Shark]

6. Are those steel-toed boots?

Best looking guy in the world is funny. Love that song: Gonna clim-clam-clean up the rim-ram room.

[HEyHEY]

9. what is that song called?

[A HERETIC I AM]

7. The one with the pyromaniac employee

The woman keeps setting things on fire and her supervisor has to stand near her with a fire extinguisher. The big boss is reluctant to let her go as she torches various items in his office!

[HEyHEY]

10. How about "I'm a bad doctor"

"I've never been able to get the hang of the whole 'healing the sick' thing"

[AWD]

11. No Sizzler And Sizzler????

Shame on you!!!!!!

[SmileyBoy]

23. I'm Jerri Sizzler!! And I'M Jerri Sizzler!!!

And we are... JERRI SIZZLER!!!

Come Jerri, we must go train for the '76 Montreal Olympics!!

[Kamika]

13. I dont remember the skits

I saw a ton of kids in the hall but i be damned if i remember them.

I liked when these gay personalities would sit discussing stuff.. one was this slut.. another was this republican wanabee etc

[ronzo]

14. Simon and Hecubus

that was my favorite bit.

Good poll. :)

[Dr Fate]

15. "No Hecubus, no checkubus"

"The Master of FUNK- uh- and EVIL!!!"

[SmileyBoy]

22. Man-servant HECUBUS!!!!

(talking about multiple personalities)

"Who's this??"

"This is... Ed..."

"Oh, hey Ed-"

"-Naw, I'm just messin' around. It's Ted again."

[ret5hd]

16. Mississippi Gary

Ridin' on the nighttrain,
Suckin' on a jelly roll.
Ridin' on the nighttrain,
Suckin' on a jelly roll.
...
...
...
You sholdn't fry an egg without a pan,
You shouldn't use your tongue to stop a fan.
Ridin' on the nighttrain,
Suckin' on a jelly roll.
Ridin' on the nighttrain,
Suckin' on a jelly roll.

I cant remember all the words, but it killed me.

[HEyHEY]

17. "Kathy with a K is a mean mistreater!

[FDRrocks]

19. The one with the friendly land-shark...

Takes place in a hotel lobby... Where a 'friendly' shark feasts of the regulars.

Since I don't know specifics I just picked "I'm crushing your head"!

[AWD]

47. Skoura The Gentle Shark!

He doesn't MEAN to eat people, he can't help it!

[SmileyBoy]

20. Darcy!! Darcy!! Darcy Pennell!!!

She makes all the kiddies feel real swell!!

DAAAARRRR-CCYYYYY!!!!!

With special guests Francesca Fiore and that... guy who hangs around her...

[Paragon]

21. The Party

"How the hell am I supposed to know that?"

[SmileyBoy]

24. How bout the one skit that was self-banned titled "SOUP du JOUR!!!"

"Do you REALLY like it??"

"Yeah!! Tell me what it's made out of!!"

"OK, I made it out of my very own-"BLLEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPP!!!!!

[SmileyBoy]

25. Hey, buddy!! What's up your craw??!!

"What's a "craw", anyway??"

"Well, I... I think it's... Well I saw one in France... GOD, I HATE YOU!!!"

[Guaranteed]

27. "STAY....DOWN!!"

Oh man I was just talking about this sketch a couple of nights ago...man it makes me laugh, in a kind of insane way, just thinking about it....

I can't remember the exact beginning, but Bruce (the short one) gets in a fight with a bigger guy outside of a bar. The guy beats the crap out of Bruce repeatedly, knocking him down over and over, but Bruce keeps getting back up- even when the surrounding people yell at him to "STAY DOWN!"

Eventually, and this is REALLY great part, the big guy throws Bruce OVER THE TOP of the building to the other side. And it's eerily quiet for a few seconds...but then you hear the slowly crescendoing war cry of Bruce as he, once again, comes running back down the alley at full speed, with his head down. The way he runs is absolutely hilarious....oh man you just gotta see it. And the big guy just sticks his fist out, and Bruce runs right into it, knocking himself down...again.

BEST..SKETCH..EVER!!!

[SmileyBoy]

28. The one where Bruce thinks he can kick the crap out of a 6'7" 270 lb. man?

That one was REALLY awesome too...

[Guaranteed]

29. Yup, I gotta find that on iMesh

Too classic

[Guaranteed]

30. Oh yeah, and the Do Re Mi song, too

Man, there are just so many great bits that they did. I could sit here all night and talk about them.

[ellie]

31. I love the Gavin skits,

especially the last one where Gavin's mother dies during a dance marathon and his dad's new wife asks Gavin what he wants and he says, "For my mom to come back from the dead and murder you! hee hee

I heard that they are back on Comedy Central. I will have to look out for them.

[Rooktoven]

32. Well, Jimmy, studies show that Rock 'n Roll _is_ dying...

Poor performances by the likes of the Jerry Lee Lewis and Chuck Berry undermine the very foundation they claim to support. And any one who has been to a Beach Boys concert knows what a sorry state of affairs that is...

(Or the Blues singer and his girl friend

Or the fur trappers...)

[HEyHEY]

33. ANd of course we have many many armani!

I love the drunk dad one ...."Son..you know I could kill you in your sleep!"

[ajacobson]

34. Por-eef

It's Pork, It's Beef...

It's Por-eef.

....

I was just in the Garden Department and it IS cheaper than dirt!

***********
Geez, how could you choose a greatest sketch, their CBC stuff was the best. I was privledged to see the show taped in Toronto three times. Met a few of the KITH--that was awesome. I have a picture of my (future) wife kissing Dave full on the lips while he was still in costume as a woman. That pict got a few comments at work, I'll tell you.

I've seen them live three times since the show went off the air, and I liked the material but the show is still way way better. I wish Lorne fucking Michaels would release the CBC shows on DVD. I think one video compilation was produced a few years ago.

Here's a website for KITH fanatics - http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Hills/5138/links.htm

[Cooley Hurd]

35. Dave's milking a cow...

...and gets kicked in the head when he bends over to pick up a penny:

Cut to a bit later. The three rednecks are sitting at the dinner table. They are watching a black and white TV, on which a Hawaiian movie plays. Loud drum beat music from the TV is heard as we focus on Mark.

Mark: (to Dave) Hey, would you mind passing me the salt?

(Dave tries his best, but cannot pickup up the salt shaker, though it is right in front of him. His aim always goes to the left or to the right. He also hits the one lamp above the table once with his hand. Mostly he knocks food off the table and makes a mess.)

(Cut to: A bit Later. Mark and Kevin are in longjohns and have just stepped down to the kitchen. Dave is still there, even though it is dark, and is still trying to grab the salt shaker.)

(Cut to a bit later: Mark is on the phone, Kevin by his side, Dave in the background trying to very slowly get the salt shaker.)

Mark: Well, he appears to be having some def-fickle-tea (difficulty) of getting the salt. No, no. You CAN get salt pretty good. (Kevin nods) So you're saying there's nothing we can do?

(Cut to Scott on phone. There is a white curtain behind him.)

Scott: No. I never said that.

Mark: Oh.

Scott: I said there's nothing we can do.

Mark: Well, that's what I said you said.

Scott: Oh, did I? I'm sorry. You caught me in the middle of a party. I'm a little drunk. (giggles) Good luck.

(The curtain is pulled aside as we see several doctors and nurses partying.)

(Cut back to the farmhouse kitchen.)

(Dave reaches past the salt shaker, grabs the table cloth, and folds it over onto itself.)

Kevin: Could be worse. He could have used to be smart.

Mark: I got a idea.

(Cut to: The Barn)

(Mark pounds the cow in the behind and it kicks Dave in the head again.)

(Dave goes flying and doesn't move. Mark and Kevin look at each other.)

(Cut to later that night. We see Kevin dragging a body from the back of a pickup as Mark digs a hole, with the farmhouse lights in the background.)

Mark: I don't know what went wrong? Always seemed to work on the Flintstones.

[HEyHEY]

36. I love that one too!

I always use the di fickle tea in my hic routine!

[chrisesq]

37. I'd have to say the one where Scott Thompson plays

the meek mother and Bruce McCulloch plays the gruff father and David Foley plays the son, wherein the parents are getting ready to go on vacation and David hasn't come home after being out all night. When he gets there the mother is somewhat coddling and Bruce comes back in the house from loading up the car and says: "Have you turned the boy into a fag yet" Just so crass that it made me bust out laughing.

[HEyHEY]

38. Yeah BRuce Rules

He plays the best gruff....anything. But I love the one when Mckinney is a small business owner with an attitude and his secretary asks him what he wants for lunch...

"Smelts and a coke" It's such a small business owner thing to say. I almost peed.

[Rowdyboy]

39. "Girl Drink Drunk" is a classic and "Mother, I've Decided

to be an Indian Woman" a close second. Any "Chicken Lady" piece is brilliant.

[HEyHEY]

40. The Indian one was so funny

"There you've killed your father"

I love it when they show the picture at the end.

[Rooktoven]

43. Oh god, I forgot Girl Drink Drunk...

I still use that term

[Paragon]

41. "Slipped my mind."

"Will do."

[HEyHEY]

42. Whenever somone says that to me I get flashbacks

Same when someone says "where's my pen"

[Loonman]

44. The Night of the Cow!

n/t

[REP]

45. "Try It Now!"

The one where attempts to start a car are made by washing it, sneaking up on it, etc.

"We Made a Mistake" - the press conference given by parents who find they regret their decision to have children.

[dwckabal]

46. My Pen! That's my PEN! N/T
