Not everyone "gets" the Kids in the Hall's humor. (It helps if you prefer a good deal of absurdity peppering your cultural commentary — or is it the other way around?) But for the group's fans, this night of wonderfully weird Canadian sketch comedy is a dream come true. Dave Foley, Mark McKinney, Scott Thompson, Kevin McDonald, and Bruce McCulloch are back, toting early-'90s favorites like swishy socialite Buddy Cole and the Headcrusher ("I'm crushing your head!"), along with plenty of new surreality. While all five have gone on to varying degrees of success in their post-Kids careers, these guys are never as funny as when they're together.
