I recently quit my job to buy a small shop in my neighborhood. Business has been kinda slow since most people are more used to driving over to the mall. When I feel down about having to compete against a larger business while pursuing my life-long dream and think that it couldn't be any worse, I think back to this sketch and laugh it off.
Dave Foley is one of my favorite humans. I saw KITH a few years ago when they came to Philly. It was spectacular. Curtains roll back: WE ARE MEN IN WEDDING DRESSES
when i lived in Richmond Virginia in the Cloverleaf Lake t Townhouse Apartment Community on Starview CT (the street i lived on in the community) someone really did have a Ghostbusters car (not the one from the movie) but yet they had their own stationwagon all pained up with equipment on the top .. clearly inspired from the movie .. and they were like TAPS (Ghost Hunters on TV) where they would go around and do the same shit you saw on the TV show with the recordings night vision thermal cameras etc .. it was really funny .. i think they even used the original Ghostbusters name (Ghost Smashers) but i really cant remember ..i have a TBI from an accident so my memory is a bit fuzzy
I went through the same thing a few years back. It was easy to resell the truck. Also being a good lawyer, dealing with the legal issues were nothing. However talking my wife into letting me keep the pole was a tough sell.
Are you kidding? Pretty standard option in today's market, whether to 'add some spice' (yeah, right) , or lead yourself to believe a steady stream of fine snatch can't wait to party with your badass self. Having a stripper pole went mainstream not long after the NBA made it mandatory for its players and Oprah had one installed. No documented evidence of it getting anyone actually laid, though.
Yep, I'm in. but I, biased since I been a firefighter for almost 30 years.. Believe it or not, I know this skit exaggerates the point but back in the early day, there were competing fire departments and would often fight on scene if arrived at the same time.. insurance companies would have their own fire department and those who covered by the company would call that particular fire department; even if their was a fire with people trapped and another insurance agency fire department was across the street, they would watch the house burn... it was nuts... you can find the insurance placards, they became a collectors items.. I have one,, their were four or five total...
my favorite thing about the KITH sketches is that they don't all have horrible endings (and by horrible I mean something awful happens to the characters). Like this one, they manage to end the sketch on a somewhat high note. Sketch groups today like the Whitest Kids U' Know (whom I love but still) feel like they have to end each skit through some darkly funny yet still depressing sort of way. It's just refreshing to for once see something more upbeat, you know? You don't? Well f*ck you.
slightly positive? .. a person who represents themselves in court has a fool for a lawyer and an idiot for a client .. he is going to jail and will be tossing salads daily .. he still doesnt have his job at the firm.. he mortgaged the house so now his wife will be evicted and the house foreclosed on .. yeah this is still a dark ending .. if you actually use your brain or have any intelligence and if you dont understand that ... welll... fuck you
@@gracchus7782 i'm pretty sure that was the joke. he dialed "The Real Fire Department", not expecting the other guy to call him out on it and then he had to hastily make an excuse.
actually , thats pretty much it. Ive put my hand into my jacket and they dont even notice it. Nor did they care that I stepped off my bike without permission.A cop actually apologized for writing my ticket. They are pretty relaxed in the rural areas.
I love going back to these old KITH skits and trying to locate the on-location shots. The fire station Dave Foley waits at is Toronto Fire Station 332 and John St and Nelson St. Still there and still looks like that. :D
Ok, the cc on this is a little hilarious. The description (he pics her up before she falls down)...if you can see to read this you can see what is happening, lol
More like a little over 1/3 life crisis. They had this and the 70s snl on during the day for a while back in 02. Getting laid off allowed time to re watch everyday
@356Verb You are aware of the Chicago Fire of 1871, right? On call firefighters were a necessity at one point in time. If a group of men weren't around to put out a fire, that fire could potentially grow to such lengths it could take out the entire neighborhood, if not multiple neighborhoods, if not the whole damn town, man.
Hi stoping by and checking in. Bests to department and staff. Also some good memory's. Some good looks file folders addition lib. ,Plays the BMG ,RCA , Sony , polaroids , the and also smrtt. Go good tjings and Magnavox , RCA assoc. Bests and great day
@@laszlozoltan5021 because lawyers know all the ins and outs of the legal orocess and in the courtroom and they have a sort of inside track to the judge and stuff. and when a person dgoes in without council, it's very unwise, as they tend to nmiss details and not cross all their i's and dot their t's. even a cheap lawyer is better than yourself. and lawyers are expensive is not anmexcuse, because you can get a legal defender appointed to you. although, i have at times been suspicious that the legal defnders might not defend you to the best of their anility or might try to push you to a plea bargain, but it's still better than trying to defend yourself

You gotta admit, despite her apprehension to his dreams, she still stood by and supported her husband.
That's because this is a fantasy.
That's how you know it's bullshit
Tammy sang it: ruclips.net/video/f2KP9fYZUWA/видео.html
a rookie mistake on her part
@@clownphabetstrongwoman7305 no shit Sherlock
Dave does childlike enthusiasm really well.
He was a child back then.
He really does.
I love how in the early 90s, 25 year olds were 40.
Now it's the other way around.
Isosceles Kramer so were the high schoolers
It's not that 25-year-olds were 40, it's just that the 25-year-olds of today act 16.
Isosceles Kramer your name is an amazing reference
@Jane Doe damn... You nailed it
Didn’t understand this show as a kid...I’m an adult now and finally understand why my dad would laugh so hard....the writing is so clever
Look up, "he's hip, he's cool he's 45"
Really hits home now that I'm 44
As a volunteer firefighter of 18 years I can relate
This show had a beautiful absurdity to it that I just love. So good.
It's a damn shame that I didn't 'get' this sense of humor back in the day. Better late than never, i suppose.
+Aaron Gottfried im pretty sure he means he was around 8-12 because im 16 and this is hilarious
Always. I grew up with KITH but no hate. Welcome to the freak party.
They were ahead of their time. Still are.

Book store?
Howsya doin? Do you sell donuts
@Trantor The Troll this might now be dark. Real dark.
I love Kevin is able to be both a man I greatly relate to AND my ideal wife.
Dave Foley is one of my favorite humans.

WE ARE MEN IN WEDDING DRESSES
If I had the money I would do this, but as a Ghostbuster
when i lived in Richmond Virginia in the Cloverleaf Lake t Townhouse Apartment Community on Starview CT (the street i lived on in the community) someone really did have a Ghostbusters car (not the one from the movie) but yet they had their own stationwagon all pained up with equipment on the top .. clearly inspired from the movie .. and they were like TAPS (Ghost Hunters on TV) where they would go around and do the same shit you saw on the TV show with the recordings night vision thermal cameras etc ..

You’re not gonna lose the house, everybody has three mortgages these days.
Just don't cross the streams. Hahaha
This show is so great! When the neighbor doesn’t call him, I crack up every time.
I went through the same thing a few years back. It was easy to resell the truck. Also being a good lawyer, dealing with the legal issues were nothing. However talking my wife into letting me keep the pole was a tough sell.
Well,maybe SHE can use it..(wink,wink)

love how he walks away all buddy-buddy with the cop .haha
The face he makes when he says "it's just a drill." That right there is peak Dave Foley, and that's why he's the best Kid in the Hall
When i was a kid I wanted to be Dave Foley.
Everyone wants to be Dave Foley when they're a kid!
Ya but they never do anything about it
How did that work out lol
It's not to late. Quit your job, do it!
Same
Yep, I'm in. but I, biased since I been a firefighter for almost 30 years..

I have one,, their were four or five total...
And yet people are so scared of "socialism"....free market fire departments just isn't a good idea!
I quit my job to start a small accounting firm less than a year ago...it's hard but I believe it'll pay off in the end. Keep your head up : )
It's been a while... How did things turn out?
Yea, let us know how it turned out
Praying for you!!! Whatever you are doing, keep working hard!
Hope you're doing well!!
WE NEED AN UPDATE

Lolol! 🤣
@Ken Mabie You missed the part that he's a pretty good lawyer.
Generation X is usually pretty cinical and loves black humor.
Brilliant writing to come around full circle like that. Dave "Yes Man" Foley strikes gold, Kevin always great.
One of my favorite skits, SNL couldn' t touch them, this Monty Python Level stuff, like Mr Show.
He dials them out of habit? How many times has Mark's house caught on fire??
considering his daily routine involves setting his shirt on fire, i think it probably happens pretty often.
12, it's quite annoying.
@@gracchus7782 i'm pretty sure that was the joke. he dialed "The Real Fire Department", not expecting the other guy to call him out on it and then he had to hastily make an excuse.
Only in Canada can you be arrested like that
Unless you're indigenous, then the police leave you outside the city limits to freeze to death or throw you in the red river.
Yeah our cops just run around all day throwing natives in the river lol stfu you god damn snowflake
@@c-r well quit expecting free rides then.
actually , thats pretty much it. Ive put my hand into my jacket and they dont even notice it. Nor did they care that I stepped off my bike without permission.A cop actually apologized for writing my ticket. They are pretty relaxed in the rural areas.
I love how he has his home number on the front of the truck 😂😂😂😂😂
Dave Foley was a cutie back when he was young. :)
Still is.
One of the best comedies shows of all time!
I know Dave Foley was in his 20s when he made this skit, but I’m pretty sure he’s playing a man in his 40s, so it’s a regular mid-life crisis.
Nah...he is early 30s tops.
One of the cleverest skits, and sweet.
I'm so glad to find this Kids in the Hall. I ❤it when it was on. Kind of a funny cross between Python & Bob and Doug👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽😆😆😆😆
He managed to talk her into getting that pole installed.
I love going back to these old KITH skits and trying to locate the on-location shots.

😆 I don't remember half of these. They're pretty hilarious and to watch them play women is so funny too. 😆
I miss the show
Ok, the cc on this is a little hilarious. The description (he pics her up before she falls down)...if you can see to read this you can see what is happening, lol
I swear, is that second "real fireman" that exits Mark McKinney's house at 4:00 Ron Livingston, a.k.a. "Peter Gibbons" from "Office Space"?
Emperor Lassic Nope
Looks like him
More like a little over 1/3 life crisis. They had this and the 70s snl on during the day for a while back in 02. Getting laid off allowed time to re watch everyday
It's so obscure but hilarious
Welcome to Kids in the Hall.
Many of your captions are quite clever - thanks for them.
That happened to me once.

This takes "whacker" to a whole new level xD
Sorry Jim Carrey, you have to take second to this, the funniest man to come out of Canada. And one of the funniest people of all time, anywhere!
I got rid of the fire engine.
You're not a policeman now, are you?
No. I'm under arrest!
Comedy gold.
This show was the best
His humor sort of reminds me of Homer Simpson
I'm in the middle of a zero life crisis
You don't get this kind of stuff with modern sketch comedy. Nowadays it's all pop culture spoofs
or political shit
Here’s someone who doesn’t understand that tax $$$ pay for firefighter services 👩🏻🚒
He should have had a fire sale!
Yes they do. They grow and join the FIRE Department.
KITH is coming back to Netflix in May 2022!
This basically the plot of American Beauty!

It would be hard to sleep with a fire alarm ringin’ in your bedroom

This is like being a musician in your 40s.
Quarter life would be about 25 years old
The dalmatian 😂
They were ahead of their time
5:33 "a man who represents himself has a fool for a client". In real life, even lawyers will seek council when they are in trouble.
why would that be? lawyers are expensive
@@laszlozoltan5021 because lawyers know all the ins and outs of the legal orocess and in the courtroom and they have a sort of inside track to the judge and stuff. and when a person dgoes in without council, it's very unwise, as they tend to nmiss details and not cross all their i's and dot their t's. even a cheap lawyer is better than yourself. and lawyers are expensive is not anmexcuse, because you can get a legal defender appointed to you. although, i have at times been suspicious that the legal defnders might not defend you to the best of their anility or might try to push you to a plea bargain, but it's still better than trying to defend yourself
oh, i'll take a backstep, most of what i said only applies in criminal court when you are accused of a crime and need to defend yourself.

i think, statisticly, when you don't have a lawyer, it's harder to interact with the judge. when there's a jury involved, they tend to decide in favor of the side that has the lawyer. . .
besides, i think a lawyer should be able to afford a lawyer.
but then again, this guy did spend all their savings on his thing. .
was this one of the "canadian content" sketches? i don't think i've ever seen it before
Freelance/Privateer Firefighter -- what an untapped market!!!
Man, I had a quarter life crisis. The mid life wasn’t as fun.
Everybody stop doing math!!!!
In the bedroom scene, Kevin looks like a Romulan!!
Of course, she walks in the door and a DALMATIAN greets her!
I always wanted to be a wild firefighter. So I bought a helicopter with a bucket.
@CuteFunGirl actually it would be closer to 18 or 19.
@GreatThorsBeard True, but in those days many buildings were made of wood, and firefighting technology wasn't nearly as good.
You mean water wasn’t as wet?
You’d think that a good lawyer would already know from the get-go that it’s illegal to interfere with a fire dept.
Anywho, love this skit.
More of a mid life crisis instead!!
What is the name of this show??
"the kids in the hall"
I need that dress!
Id be a lion tamer instead!!!🤣
This is sad . I had a dress just like the one Kevin has on back in the early nineties.
i wanted him to be a cop so we could see some 9C1 action
People always say how Dave made the cutest woman, but I think Kevin’s women characters were the most realistic.
There's a difference between realistic and cute.
Kevin definitely had the better legs tho.
Oh no not a policeman lol
2:25
Is my favourite part
@benjie414 These guys were in their early 20s at the time.
Quarter life crisis? How is this different than a midlife crisis? I should know, my husband had all of them. Quarter-life is 20-25 years old.
Affordable lmao bro you not supposed to charge
A quarter life crisis? So then, what?.. He was 20? (even though he had grey hair and was clearly meant to be middle-aged).
The fun of insanity
these dudes were in Sky High
Because you could still buy a house and start a family in your 20s then..
I made a voiceover for that in Russian recently.
Zac?
Why do the subtitles say "Stupid Audience Laughs Loudly", I think that's a smart audience and they laugh at the right thing, just like me
this is fucking awesome
@356Verb I think it's just supposed to be a funny sketch- I think.
@TheGoalSetter Hey! I do lots of things... I get off my computer to read a book... I watch some episodes of Star Trek... you know what shutup!
every hollywood comedy in the 1980's.
[Stupid audience laughs loudly]
DAVE FOLEY MAKES AHOT WOMEN👩🏻
Mary hindle *woman*
Kevin was the woman in this sketch; not Dave.
@CuteFunGirl Yeah I was gonna say the same thing, he has a wig with gray hair :P
Turn on the subs and you'll see "stupid audience laughs loudly" ... ha.
technically this is a mid-life crisis. quarter-life crisis happens when you're 25
oops
Wow, the quality of this video is so bad I can't even make out everything it says on the book cover.
Omg😂😂😂
