As the Kids in the Hall are wrapping up a 5-city mini-tour, a quarter century after they hit the U.S. (and 30 years after they formed), I have to wonder: Which Kid has aged the best, and which has aged the worst?
Obviously, this thread is about their physical appearance, as I assume no one here has any insight as to the health of their prostates or mental well-being.
I think Scott Thompson’s better looking now than he was then, and Kevin McDonald is looking rather haggard these days.
Best: Thompson
Worst: McDonald
In order
Mark.
Bruce.
Kevin.
Scott
Dave
Poor Dave. Though he does look better in that picture than I’ve seen him elsewhere.
I think Mark looks doughy and Kevin just looks all-around rough. Dave does look better in that picture than he has elsewhere recently. (I think what hurts Dave is that he was the youthful-looking “cute one,” so any age on his face makes him look exponentially worse.)
Scott, to me, just looks suave. Bruce looks like Bruce, but a little older.
Scott looked pretty damn good as Buddy Cole when he did a stint on Colbert for the Olympics.
Dave looks fine for a middle-aged man. Problem with him is that he looked like a little boy when he did KITH!
I don’t think I’ve seen any of the others since their little TV series a few years ago, so I don’t know how they look in “3D”. In that picture, Kevin looks terrible!
I think other than Kevin, they all look good! Kevin’s never really looked that good anyway 
They all look fairly good in that photo.
Dave’s weight has gone up and down a lot over the past 10 years. He looks a lot better in that photo than he has at many other times over the past decade.
Kevin was always a little weird looking, so I give him a pass.
Scott has aged well, but he has not aged as well as Buddy Cole would have aged- which I kept thinking as I watched Buddy’s coverage of the Sochi Olympics for The Colbert Report.
I’d say they’re all pretty close to even. They all look fairly good, but there’s not a one of them who would fool me significantly if I was asked to guess their ages without knowing who they are. I’d guess early 50s for each one of them. I wouldn’t even guess late 40s for any of them . . . well, if I didn’t know who they were and I didn’t know they were in showbusiness then I might guess late 40s.
Scott has definitely aged the best, or at least looks the most like his younger self.
Kevin doesn’t look so good, but then again he’s always been an odd-looking fellow. And in that picture he looks like he’s grown perfectly into the “whole lotta milka” guy.
Mark looks the least like his younger self, but I’m not sure I would exactly describe it as “aging badly.”
Kevin looks like he is being propped up and may expire at any moment.
Aw, this thread is making me feel protective of Kevin. He seems like such a sweetheart IRL.
Scott’s the best preserved. (He and I have the same birthday: tomorrow, June 12. But he’s 19 years older.:))
Scott Thompson, who is on Hannibal, looks great. Not the same, but equally normal looking.
After that, Bruce looks pretty good too.
We need to do this with Monty Python. Only Michael Palin looks OK from that group now.
Bruce is cute and I thought the cute did not age well as a species.
Bruce was my crush back then and I think he really does look the best now, too. He doesn’t look like an OLD version of his younger self. He looks like a MATURE version of his younger self.
Scott looks pretty good, too. Mark looks DIFFERENT, but I wouldn’t say he looks bad. Dave…fluctuates. In that pic, he doesn’t look too bad, but I’ve seen him looking pretty marginal. Kevin…oh, Kevin. He was never the best-looking of the guys and that certainly hasn’t changed.
I’m more interested in the health of their careers.
I think there must be another producer named Kevin McDonald.
I’ve seen the name “Kevin McDonald” as producer of quite a few very different kinds of films. I just can’t believe they were all done by the same person.
Specifically, there is a movie “Marley” about Bob Marley that has all kinds of knowledge about Bob Marley and his family and his history. I can’t imagine that was produced by this same “Kevin McDonald”. But I could well be wrong I suppose.
Also, The Last King of Scotland, State of Play and The Eagle.
I looked it up and those 3 movies were def produced by a diff Kevin McDonald.
I wonder if there are more than two?
OMG. Yes! There are at least three!
I followed Dave Foley for a while but only because I enjoyed the show “News Radio”.
I liked that show because of some of the great people on it - such as Khandi Alexander, Phil Hartman, Maura Tierney, Steven Root.
Wow! What a great cast.
Sad to say Dave Foley was the weakenst link on that show. I’m sure it would have been a much better show with a diff actor.
Dave Foley was never very good.
Brain Candy was just hopeless. Barf!
If you don’t know who Khandi Alexander is, I recommend you watch a few episodes of that show. She is amazingly beautiful and wonderful to watch.
She was also in What’s Love Got to Do With it and There’s Something About Mary. Both those films were truly wonderful. If you’ve never seen them, you can do yourself a huge favor. IMHO, you will enjoy them immensley.
Marc Maron made that mistake. In doing so he discovered an interesting guy to interview. But then he found the familiar Kevin McDonald to round out the episode.
Here is another picture of them from earlier this year. This may make making a decision a bit easier. The Kids in the Hall in 2014
Kevin looks a little less rough here and Scott looks a little less good. I’ll vote Bruce for held up best and as for worst, I don’t think any of them lowered themselves to a level to be signaled out that way.
Yep.
Kevin McDonald is from KITH.
Kevin MacDonald is the director/producer.
She was also the ME on CSI:Miami for the first few seasons.
