The Kids Are Back In Town!!

Hallelujah! Praise the comedy gods! For the Kids are back!! Yes, the Kids in the Hall, hot off their live North American tour, are going to be making their television come back! They are penning a new miniseries that will air on the CBC (Canadian Broadcasting Company) and be called "Death Came To Town." Why that sounds like comic gold! What could be unfunny about death?

The project is still in the developmental stage but it sounds like it going to be a go! At least it better be or I am going up there! The word is that it's going to have a narrative arch through all the episodes but will still try to retain a sketch like format. Sounds funny! Hopes raising!

Oh, I can not wait. And I will try my hardest not to be saddened at the fact that they actually age, which means they are real human beings and not, as I praise earlier, comic gods. At least not ones that get granted eternal youth, only Carol Channing got that. 

Oh how I miss them so... It's going to be a long wait. I may need your support. There will be nights of waking up twitching like the Chicken Lady, muttering "No! The beard stays! You go.," and of course the intense craving for saaaaauuuusssaages
