Mouse in a Bottle

A great piece from the SCTV archives.
What a sweet show that was, it aired in the early
80’s to rave reviews, and all the praise was deserved.
John Candy started here, as well as Catherine O’Hara,
Eugene Levy, and a few others.
It was a show about a fictional television station called
SCTV, following the lives of the celebrities and hosts.
It was really funny and, typical of Canadian humor, smart.
These two guys, Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas, were
chosen to give the show a couple of “Canadian moments”
as it was a contractual obligation to have Canadian
content for a variety show of this type.
They pulled something together to meet that obligation
and the rest is history, they became a huge hit on both
sides of the border.

Autism, My Sister Kate

A classic diatribe/lament/set by the great Kathleen Madigan.
Most of her material comes from a down to earth family
background and it shows, she speaks to you and I.
Always good for a laugh, she’s one of the best stand-up
comedians on the circuit.
Her sister Kate has issues…


Bald is Beautiful

Bowser and Blue with an ode to those that shine.
On the top, where the fuzzy stuff used to be.
Great musicians, top notch humorists, long time
friends…a combo made in comedic heaven.
Another great source of laughter from Canada…
