Daddy Drank

So skipping the Sunday Interview to finish the intro 5.

There should be a Head Crusher sketch. There should be a Chicken Lady sketch. There should be something completely silly, like the Nutty Bunnies. A surreal piece like Sausages. A musical number. 30 Helens. Or an extended filmed sequence. But to wrap up MY 5 sketches that explain the Kids in the Hall, I'm posting Daddy Drank.
The Kids were many things, but one unifying factor: their dads. From what they've said, to different degrees they've each had issues with their fathers.

In this sketch, Kevin wrote things his dad would actually say to him, and Dave performed them as HIS dad. So showing two of the paternal personalities that made these magnificent comedians who they are, Daddy Drank.

Something trending on YouTube at the moment.


Example of a bad dad? Nah... but here's one.

Well folks... it's Father's day.

So to honor the good fathers out there, let's look at an example of a bad one.

This sketch was based on Kevin's own father.
Kevin said this about the kids,
"Sadly, most of the Kids in the Hall had drunk dads... before we had our TV show we used to joke that our stage show was 'The Drunk Dad Show."
I remember Kevin saying in some article or commentary that he was telling Dave this story about his father, and Dave just said, 'That's really funny.' After that Dave and Kevin worked on this sketch. It is funny but I can't imagine being a kid with that around.


And so... Daddy Drank.



Also, girl drink drunk was based on Kevin... but that's for a later time.
