Critic Reviews of "The Kids in the Hall - Season 1"
PopMattersJune 01, 2018Their original characters, their clever lines and groundbreaking themes, and their ability to play realistic women (along with their willingness to kiss each other) surely meant they would go down in comedy history.
Rolling StoneJune 01, 2018The self-contained fivesome never relied on pop culture references or celebrity impressions to get a laugh. Instead they created surreal characters that seemed to inhabit some mysterious other universe.
Chicago TribuneJune 01, 2018What they have done is give Home Box Office audiences in America a dark and almost dangerous weekly comedy show, one that doesn`t play-as so such American comedy increasingly does-to the lowest common denominators.
Chicago ReaderJune 01, 2018I became addicted, not only because of the wildly nonsensical sketch humor but also because Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson were a decisively cohesive unit.
Los Angeles TimesJune 01, 2018Do we really need an all-male, all-white quintet of flip, hip kids, making with the jokes?
AV ClubJune 01, 2018Kids In The Hall inhabited a self-contained world built around original characters and absurdist setups, linked by wraparound sketches and short films that occasionally valued weirdness over funniness.
VarietyJune 01, 2018It's the Kids' deliriously subversive take on middle-class manners and hypocrisy, and the way they fully inhabit their characters with subtle, laser-sharp acting, that set their comedy above the norm.
New York TimesJune 01, 2018All five comics are clean-cut, boy-next-door types, which gives their off-the-wall humor an extra spin.
PopMattersMarch 13, 2020These follow the rich sketch tradition of hit-or-miss, but the Kids are notable for some of the most fascinatingly experimental misses in comedy history.
Common Sense MediaMarch 13, 2020McKinney's hilarious head-crushing sketch remains a classic, and his portrayal of a strutting, squawking Chicken Lady is still funny years later.
Baltimore SunJune 01, 2018You can say this about "The Kids in the Hall:" They are sometimes funnier than the gang over at "Saturday Night Live." Then again, that is not saying a lot these days, when the late-night "SNL" players fall flat more often than not.
Consequence of SoundJune 01, 2018The canadian sketch comedy series broke far more ground at the time, relying less on pop culture or topical impersonations and more on social anxieties revolving around subjects like sexuality, gender, faith, the workplace, and family.
