They used Canadian colloquialisms like "Beauty, eh?" and "Take Off!," constantly bickered with each other, and were occasionally quite funny. Someone who has as many problems with America as he does is bound to see that (Celine Dion aside), Canada would be a much more peaceful and enjoyable place to exist than here in war-torn, battle-weary America.

Sure you do.

Oh sure, maybe it wasn't as funny as Lorne Thomas's The New Show (whose only skit, as far as I can remember, was one where the front of Dave Thomas' hair rose up in the air whenever he got scared), but it was certainly fast-paced and consistent enough to match the hilarity of such classic stateside comedy programs as NBC's Saturday Night and Three's A Crowd.

That Eric Clapton throwing his baby out the window is so fucking cruel. well thats all I can think of that's good. That alone requires a certain talent.
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. We're just waiting for clearance." "Oh. I can see how that would turn you off as your sense of humour is obviusly limited to words like "boobs" and "ass." The point of Bob and Doug was to have silly fun as you have mentioned but the fact that this segement as well as the rest of SCTV ws completely improv seems to have lost you.

Every second week they show a repeat and when it actually is new you feel cheated out of an hour and a half! Why can't comedians be funny every once in a while? And, yeah, I dunno if even Canadians can sit through 45 straight minutes of "Great White North."

I dunno if you know this, but I read an interview with Rick Moranis in Playboy back when SCTV was on, and he said that in Canada there's a law that every tv show has to have two and a half minutes of "purely Canadian material." So the writers of SCTV said, "Fine.

Have you watched snl recently? Written and directed by and starring Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas, otherwise known as Bob and Doug McKenzie--known to all (most…ok, some) from SCTV's "The Great White North" segments where the boys waxed semi-philosophic on all things Canadian (particularly beer)--1983's Strange Brew follows the naturally sophomoric misadventures of the McKenzies, who find sort-of-gainful employment at the Elsinore Brewery, where something is rotten following the mysterious death of Pam Elsinore's (Lynne Griffin) father and the ascendance of her uncle Claude and his right-hand brewmeister Smith (Max von Sydow).

Chalk Great White North up as another inferior Canadian product, right next to The Guess Who's All This For A Song and every single person ever born in that ridiculous excuse for a country.

Except Burton Cummings.

And about your canada bashing. Two great songs, three other funny moments. They're 'women.' Or 'girls.' Or 'chicks.'"

If you're a big fan of Bob & Doug McKenzie, this is like a dream come true for you because it features all of your favorite scenes from the Hamlet ripoff movie as well as lots of brand new moronic dialogue to supposedly laugh at.
