The Kids in the Hall features an all-male ensemble cast who take on all of the acting duties (they dress like women a lot). Unlike Saturday Night Live, which by design has had a revolving door of cast members and writers across several decades, The Kids in the Hall stars Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson, all of whom bring their own blend of surreal and absurdist humor to the mix. Not only does the principal cast star in every skit, they also function as writers.
What truly sets The Kids in the Hall apart from Saturday Night Live is the fact that we’re witnessing a Canadian comedy troupe producing a TV show rather than a gigantic team of writers and producers hammering out skits and bits. As a result, a lot of the humor is self-referential, as each member of the troupe will break character and talk to the studio audience in an effort to break the fourth wall.
