Yeah, I like that one. What’s your favorite Kids In The Hall sketch/character.
I got dibs on The Chicken Lady.

I got dibs on The Chicken Lady.
“Chicken lady loves life!”
I was always partial to Monique, the pyromaniac employee of the insurance company.
“Mo-mo, do you like working here?”
“Oh yes, m’sieur. Everyone is so flammable.”
Buddy the bar owner, especially the 3D helmet sketch.
The sarcastic disease sketch was also good.
My sick sense of humor loves the one where they are all around a campfire, lovingly eulogizing a dead friend, whom they had murdered and buried.
Toss up between the “Doe, a deer” sketch… and a weird one I only saw once, and I’ve been looking for it ever since: they’re in a restaurant, and two of them get up and do some little “a-room-ba” dance, and Mark sings “I catch the fish, I cook the fish, I eat the fish, I like it”… etc. It might not be my favourite, though… just my holy grail, since I have never, ever seen it again, and I first saw it… agh, like 12, 13, 14 years ago!
Oh, and any **Buddy Cole ** monologue.
I have a strange fondness for Daryll.
Particularly his Oompah daydreams.
Ah, Tengu beat me to it. Oompah and cancer daydreams.
It’s a toss up between “This is a song about the Daves I know, I know”
and
“My pen! My pen!”
Thirty Helens agree, “Thirty Helens” is my favorite quickie bit.
I’m kind of partial to anything with Francesca Fiore too.
I always like the “It’s a fact!” kid.
“it’s Citizen Kane! Citizen Kane! Citizen Kane!”
“These aren’t your avergae monkeys…these monkey’s are mean spirited…and they smells some”
“I seen them get 'hold of a dog once. Hoo boy.”
“Cabbage Head!? NNNOOOOOOOO!!!”
Business Suit Trappers. “No, Francois-- let that one go. He has spirit. He may someday become a vice-president.”
A terrier’s my very favorite dog…
Sir Simon Milligan and his Manservant Hecubus!
“Tony Henderson, you’ve been made a fool of! By the forces of darkness!”
“Busy day today, lots to do, busy, busy, busy. Item 1: go to bank, lots to do, just knocked down an old lady, busy, busy.”
Any of the vaudville bits just kills me. Especially when Dave Foley’s auditioning versus Kevin McDonald’s straight man:
McGillicuty: Say Mr. Greene, I hear you manage a baseball team.
Greene: No. I’m a vaudevillian.
McGillicuty: No, I think you manage a baseball team.
Greene: Yes of course, yes I do manage a baseball team.
McGillicuty: I understand some of the players have rather strange nicknames, rather silly pet names the players have nowadays.
Greene: Yes, it’s true. In fact, I have the team roster with me right here. For instance, Hu is on first base, Watt is on second, and Iduno is on third base.
McGillicuty: Who’s on first base?
Greene: Yes.
McGillicuty: Who?
Greene: Yes, who is the man on first base.
McGillicuty: Why are you asking me; I’m asking you. What’s the name of the guy on first base?
Greene: No no, Watt is on - oh, I see what your problem is. Look, you’re confused by their names, because they all sound like questions.
McGillicuty: I dunno.
[whispers]
McGillicuty: Third base.
Greene: Well, I’ll explain it to you. See, on first base is Hu, Samuel Hu, and you’re probably not familiar with that name because his grandfather was Chinese. And on second base is Hector Watt, W-A-T-T Watt, and that’s not so unusual because James Watt invented the steam engine. And on third base is Phil Iduno, I-D-U-N-O, and if you do say that fast, it does sound like the phrase “Gee, I dunno,” but it’s actually Iduno, Phil Iduno.
McGillicuty: That’s it. You’re hopeless, you’re pathetic, you’re the worst straight man I ever worked with. I quit. I should have never saved you from those seals.
Greene: What are you talking about? I auditioned for this job.
Or Dave Foley writing the letter to the guy in the hospital.
I was about to reply with some more of my favorite sketches, but I just can’t stop thinking about Tony. Where he is, what he is doing, who he is with, what he is thinking of, is he thinking of me.
o/ Feeding up our tape worms! o/
And any sketch where the actors cross dress. They make some hot-looking women.
