Great series! So well done in Winnipeg I watch the series on re runs years after on late night. The material never got old years latter. May be dated by todays stander many of the pop references would be missed by the youth today, but still funny and non p c.
Second City TV was a low budget Canadian made comic t v series. The low budget, done on the fast made was the series strong point. With the lower budget and set the series had go with great writing and over the top characters. Bob and Dough and the funny Canadian stereotypes was comic gold. John Candy as Julis Childs, Dr Tounge, Johnny La Rue could just kill it; whatever material, never a too ridiculous character or even just a couple minutes character on stage Candy would just steal the scene. Rick, Dave and Harold become great script writers with Hollywood years latter. The other actors got many bit parts but many bit parts and such bit on show was classic and iconic. The Godfather spoof was comic gold. The 3 C C C P T V was so funny is a detailed way. Better then S N L in many ways, because its lacked the budget, which made me wonder how more years Second City would lasted if there was an actually budget for a T V series made in Edmonton (for most of the series duration) 9 stars.
