Dave Foley, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson are the members of the sketch comedy group The Kids in the Hall, which was established in 1984 in Canada. The group is comprised of comedians Bruce McCulloch, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson. Their self-titled television program aired in Canada on CBC from 1988 through 1994, while in the United States it aired on CBS and HBO from 1989 until 1995. The instrumental track "Having an Average Weekend" by the Canadian band Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet was chosen to serve as the show's theme music. The group was only responsible for one film, which was titled Brain Candy and was released in the year 1996. In the year 2000, the comedy ensemble got back together to participate in a number of comedy festivals and tours. In January of 2010, they presented a miniseries titled Death Comes to Town that was comprised of eight episodes. The name of the collective was given to them by comedian Sid Caesar, who would blame a joke's failure on "the kids in the hall," referring to a group of young writers who hung out in the studio's common areas. If a joke was poorly received or didn't perform as well as expected, Caesar would say that it was because "the kids in the hall" were responsible.
