Quote
- "It'll be an eight-episode arc with a narrative running through it and we will play all the characters but it won't be sketch, it'll be a single narrative miniseries. Probably the closest thing to it will probably be something like League of Gentlemen, which I think was brilliant. So I hope it will be close to that". - Dave Foley 680News.com: Kids In the Hall comics to return to CBC with series next year (December 1, 2008)
