The Kids in the Hall have a new 8-part series called Death Comes to Town (trailer here) that is scheduled to begin airing in Canada in January, 2010. Point Canada.

  1. I went sledding in a foot of fresh snow this weekend, and there’s a weeklong curling tournament in my city starting today. I think that’s worth an extra point to Canada.

  2. But, as we are reminded whenever Gabe uses a Hulu video, Canadians cannot watch Hulu. So even-steven or point USA? Kids Court.

  3. It looks a little League of Gentlemen-y to me. By which i mean it looks like the British dark comedy League of Gentlemen with the small town and the death and the hit or miss funny. JUST KIDDING! LoG was a hit all the way!
     
    Double Boo to Dave Foley. What, were you too busy lending your voice talents to a Disney Christmas Special that airs tomorrow on ABC at 8:30 p.m et/pt? JUST KIDDING! I don?t really care.

    • Saying the Kids in the Hall look like the League of Gentlemen is like saying Monty Python looks like Mr. Show. Whaaaa? There’s an order here!

      • I am aware of order, it is just when i think of murders and blood and death in a quirky little spit of a town I think of Royston Vasey…now if we were talking of a populace untroubled by the fact that their happiness pill comes at the expense of the health of others than I might think of Kid in The Hall.
         
        Obviously this will not be as dark as LofG (#1 it is always Sunny in Canada…except for winter) and be far more silly. and I am excited, I?m just a bit wary of possible disappointment.
         
        Also Dave Foley: I?m sorry I doubted you. I hope the Disney/ABC Special does well.

        • I know, I thought about my comment after I posted it and thought you had a fair enough point and I should’ve kept my e-mouth shut. Soooorry! Please accept this as an apology.

          • thank god! I thought we were going to have to e-feud and i’d hate to keep downvoting your comments out of spite. JUST KIDDING! I only do that to DS3M. Just kidding again! Man, I am on a roll…but for serious, that guy is sitting on a pile of downvotes. What is up with that? Anyway, apology accepted. *heart!*

      • I STRENUOUSLY OBJECT TO THE COMMENTS FROM THE GENTLELADY FROM TEXAS!

  4. I’m so excited! And I just can’t hide itunderneaththiscabbagehead!

  5. Ah guys, watch it again. Dave Foley is the blonde that screams, the guy on his porch with glasses, the cameraman/director at the end…granted they don’t show him much, but he’s in it!

    Can’t wait for this!

  6. Thank god. This is the best thing to happen to Canadian comedy since Air Farce called it quits.

  7. It’s going to be on TV! My TV! Yay!

  8. Needs a new title. How about Canadian Movie?

  9. This news makes me feel like I just took some Gleemonex!
