Kids in the hall is my favorite sketch comedy show of all time. Easily some of the weirdest and funniest stuff I had seen at the time.
The show aged so/so, but late 80s early 90s that shit was my jam.
Chicken Lady
The Flying Pig.
Head Crusher.
Buddy Cole.
Brain Candy was great as well.
No, never heard of it.Have you watched Death Comes to Town?
It’s an 8 part miniseries that kids in the hall made.No, never heard of it.
Should I?
Sweet! Thank you for the heads up, I will check it out.It’s an 8 part miniseries that kids in the hall made.
SNL
Most notable successes are Will Ferrell, Jimmy Fallon, Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Adam Sandler, Seth Myers, Leslie Jones, Robert Downey Jr. and Pete Davidson. The majority of the staff listed did not even start at SNL until well after In Living Color ended.
In Living Color
The show ended in 1994 before many of those notable SNL names were even on SNL and I can argue their influence lasted longer than those above post 2000. Jim Carrey, Jamie Foxx, Damon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Marlon Wayans, David Allan Grier, Rosie Perez, Carrie Ann Inaba and Jennifer Lopez.
That's great an all except you left over half the names off SNL's list of successes outside SNL. And we can focus on "post-90's", but we need to include stars from the 90's on SNL because that's when In Living Color had its run, and from where are those stars listed came. In Living Color started in 1990, so any SNL star that started with the show after that date should count. Yes, this includes Farley and Spade, btw. Oh, I'm also striking Inaba from the list because LOL what has she done? Nearly every cast member in SNL history has a more impressive resume outside the show than her.Again, I am looking at post 90's because everyone was huge in the 90's.
