The definitive, authorized story of legendary sketch comedy troupe The Kids in the Hall -- who will soon be returning for a new original series on Amazon Prime Video. Meticulously researched and written with the full cooperation and participation of the troupe, The Kids in the Hall: One Dumb Guy features exclusive interviews with Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson, as well as key players from their inner circle, including producer Lorne Michaels, the "man in the towel" Paul Bellini, and head writer Norm Hiscock. Marvel as the Kids share their intimate memories and behind-the-scenes stories of how they created their greatest sketches and most beloved characters, from the Chicken Lady and Buddy Cole to Cabbage Head and Sir Simon &Hecubus. The Kids in the Hall: One Dumb Guy spans the entirety of the Kids' storied career, from their early club shows in Toronto and New York to their recent live reunion tours across North America.

You'll read tributes from Seth Meyers, Judd Apatow, Garry Shandling, Paul Feig, Mike Myers, David Cross, Michael Ian Black, Brent Butt, Jonah Ray, Dana Gould, Bob Odenkirk, Andy Richter, and Canada's newest comedy sensation, Baroness Von Sketch. As an added bonus, the book includes never-before-seen photographs and poster art from the personal archives of the Kids themselves. Perfect for diehard fans and new initiates alike, The Kids in the Hall: One Dumb Guy will make you laugh and make you cry ... and it may even crush your head.

Praise for Paul Myers and IT AIN''T EASY: LONG JOHN BALDRY AND THE BIRTH OF THE BRITISH BLUES: "[Long John Baldry''s] story is told briskly and well in journalist and musician Paul Myers''s It Ain''t Easy. . . . The biography is likely to be definitive. The important voices are here: friends, family, famous proteges. It''s an affectionate account, part glimpse into a vibrant music scene, part life story of a talented but troubled man." -- Globe and Mail Praise for The Kids in the Hall TV series: "I''d hate to meet the person who wasn''t a huge Kids in the Hall fan!" -- Samantha Bee "I''ll openly admit that the Kids in the Hall were a direct influence on Portlandia. We definitely took ideas from them, and I know I''ve said out loud ''How would Kids in the Hall end this sketch? How would they do it?''" -- Fred Armisen "They were the step after Saturday Night Live. This was something new." -- Lorne Michaels "They were just so fucking good." -- Patton Oswalt "The Kids in the Hall were groundbreaking and hilarious and much bolder than anything anybody else was doing at the time. I watched them religiously and always laughed my ass off." -- Judd Apatow "The Kids in the Hall were fresh and sharp and funny and cool. They were constantly moving forward. When all the cylinders are firing at a Kids in the Hall show, it reaches the level of comedy art." -- Mike Myers "I love those guys, they''re the best. Anybody who meets them likes them. They''re my kind of humour." -- Bob Odenkirk "The fact that people are still going to see The Kids in the Hall when they tour speaks to their legacy. Their stuff holds up, you know?" -- David Cross "All of us in The State knew who they were, and I think we all felt like, ''Oh, these fuckers. We need to compete with these assholes.'' And of course, in our minds, they were fuckers and assholes because they were successful." -- Michael Ian Black "Comedic milestones -- when comedy takes a step forward -- are the moments that, as a comedy person, you live for. The Kids in the Hall were one of them. Modern sketch comedy owes them the hugest debt of gratitude." -- Paul Feig "The Kids were my eye-opening ''Sex Pistols'' moment. When I watched them I said, ''Wait, I can do this too!''" -- Jonah Ray "There are only a few sketch comedy groups that survive the test of time. The Kids in the Hall were so bold, so imaginative, and so brilliant, that they will go down on the very top of that list, next to Monty Python''s Flying Circus. Their work is as perfect today as it was the day they released it." -- Thomas Lennon "The Kids in the Hall quoted to an acquaintance is the litmus test for friendship. Silly, subversive, intelligent comedy delivered with heart. They have no parallel." -- Bobcat Goldthwait "The Kids in the Hall set the tone for what sketch comedy could be. They showed that cultural impact was as important as comedy, and I don''t think there''s ever been a comedy troupe that''s been able to pull that off since." -- George Stroumboulopoulos "Individually and collectively, The Kids in the Hall are some of the funniest people to ever do a sketch show, and Paul Myers is the perfect guy to write a book about them." -- Frank Conniff "Everything they did was done with truth. And it was so refreshing, too. The Kids in the Hall was what people call ''smart comedy.'' It fed your brain." -- Steve Higgins "The Kids in the Hall are spectacular! They''re a continuation and a combination of what we did in Second City, and what Monty Python was doing for us at the time. They were all so gifted, and their storytelling was very cool and sophisticated." -- David Steinberg "The Kids in the Hall are easily the most influential comedians of my generation and one of the greatest sketch troupes of all time." -- Kliph Nesteroff, author of The Comedians: Drunks, Thieves, Scoundrels and the History of American Comedy

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages.
I’ll definitely make another purchase soon!
Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
