1. No Whose Line huh?

That'd get my vote

[AngryWhiteDemocrat]

2. The State

That'd get my vote

[CarlBallard]

6. I forgot about the state

So I voted for Almost Live

[nuxvomica]

3. You left out "Upright Citizens Brigade"

That's my second favorite. Short-lived but consistently funny.

[dajabr]

4. "Mr. Show"

Did that air in the Great White North? Absolutely histerical!

[Exultant Democracy]

23. I have the DVD

Actually went to the trouble of figuring out how to play multi-region DVDs after I ordered it from amazon.com.

Definitely worth it. The first episode was ropey but you can see the improvement in every episode - the second series was genius.

22. OMG, Mr. Show!!!

I voted for KITH, but if Mr. Show had been available, that TOTALLY would have been my vote. It's brilliant, brilliant.

5. Good lord! you mean "Almost Live" isn't local

we're inflicting it on the nation?!

[GOPisEvil]

12. Almost live was on Comedy Central years ago...

...the "High-Fivin' White Guys" and "COPS on Mercer Island" were my favorites. :7

[MercutioATC]

9. I met Dave Foley from "The Kids in the Hall" on vacation last year

in Costa Rica. He's very unassuming and very funny. Great guy.

Mama, Eunice and Ed aka "The Family".

[bookworm65t]

15. 2nd vote for this one

especially the movie parodies such as "Went With The Wind" and "Mildred Fierce"

[ronnykmarshall]

20. Remember that dress?

"I just saw it in the winda ....."

[FlashHarry]

14. Harry Enfield. N/T

[Philostopher]

16. I can't help but say SCTV.

Because you left Red Green off.

If I recall correctly, most of the stuff on SCTV was ad libbed, where a lot of the SNL stuff, even when it was funniest, was fairly tightly scripted. Don't know if this is true of Kids In The Hall, but I guess that's my second on this list.

Amazing, really, how many people it contributed to North American culture -- I know, their output has been shamefully uneven (Marty Short, fire your agent!) but Gene Levy, John Candy, Harond Ramis ... Catherine O'Hara and Andrea Martin.

I find it strange that so many people will claim Canadians have no sense of humor, and yet most of the best sketch comics and ad libbers over the years have come from there.

17. You forgot White House press briefings.

more sad than funny.

[DS1]

18. Good, Python took the lead

!

[Kat45]

19. Just put in a vote for Python.

Although I also like SCTV, In Living Colour, and Saturday Night Live (the very early years only).

[nini]

However. Living Color was awesome Homey the Clown was my favorite part of that..
