Your first reaction is almost painful: They look so young! Sure, it’s only to be expected given the fact that these shows are more than 20 years old, but still it’s a shock to see how baby- faced they all look, particularly when they dress up as girls. (Compare the early skits to the way they look in the bonus disc for their 2011 movie, Death Comes to Town for the full effect.) Looks aside, the good news is that the comedy this Canadian team put together is as fresh now as it was when they first started doing it back in 1988. Like all sketch shows, the Kids have their fair share of flops, which is only to be expected given the sheer number of skits they did over the years, but their batting average is pretty high with plenty of home runs in the mix.
