This show is funny stuff, I love it because it reminded me of the old days when CBC used to care about what kind of programs it was making, like the original Kids in the Hall series. They just don't worry about quality or the audience (our) experience any more, or what they waste our tax dollars on.This show is about a small Ontario town called Shuckton (all of the town's inhabitants are played by members of the Kids in the Hall sketch troupe and they do a great job like they always did). The mayor is murdered in the first episode which sets up where the rest of the mini-series goes.A lot of laughs and a decent story, as I said good performances from an older Kids in the Hall troupe. The writing isn't quite up to snuff to where the original series used to be but it's obviously a very different show.Worth seeing! You can watch it online.

As a long time fan of the KITH, I was so excited to find their show on IFC. The writing and the characters are totally hilarious!!!!! I only wish the series could keep going. My husband goes around the house singing "got a job to do" and we have laughed so much at these characters from Death Comes to Town.KITH should be writing comedy all the time. It is innate for them. I always have trouble trying to decide which one of these five amazing guys makes me laugh harder. Any true KITH fan will love the Death Comes to Town series. It made my Friday for those weekends the new episodes aired. Yes those episodes are taking up space on my DVR and I don't care. Please give me more KITH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This caught me by surprise..even more so than when I was in line at the Halal stand and Flying Pig came out of nowhere saying "Wow, what a lineup. But don't worry, look at me! Hey hey!!".It's just a blast seeing the guys doing what they do best. KITH sets the stage and introduces an array of new characters with that great humor with a dark edge. What's great about their brand of comedy is they really never held any punches. This can be seen throughout the series. The interactions really cracked me up: the Mayor and Marilyn, Marnie & Ricky, Crim & Sam Murray, Death and...everybody else! How about the Breaking News crew...Levon's facial indifference is priceless (thanks to Dave of course). And how can you beat a name like Rampop! The only downside with this is it's brief length of 8 eps...but I'm not complaining. Bruce really shines as Ricky Jarvis who's probably my fave character. Crim in his hazed out germ gel state is also a blast.Hey KITH, keep them coming!

Just watched the first 2 episodes, this show is hilarious. Nice to see the original KITH characters all on board for this series. Unlike their previous work, the show revolves around a small Canadian town and its residents, instead of doing random sketches. Laugh-Out-Loud comedy ensues at every corner. There are hidden jokes as well as episode long running jokes and a complete story that kept me interested for the whole episode. The story takes place with "the devil" coming to the small town to run havoc on the simple town and its people. I just hope a US network picks this up so more people can see it. Right now its just on CBC.
