Duh, I meant to post this earlier, but Marie posted on the newsgroup that there was a brief interview/article about the Kids in the Hall DVDs in (last week's? date?) Entertainment Weekly which I'll just post here if no one minds:

INTERVIEW
The Kids in the Hall
In the 1989 first season of the classic HBO sketch show The Kids in
the Hall, "We looked like children," member Dave Foley, now 40 tells
EW. "Our name looked appropriate then, instead of vaguely sad, as it
does now."
The Canadian quintet's first 20 wrinkle-free-episodes are compiled,
uncut, in "The kids in the Hall: Season One (4 disks, 8 hrs, 20 mins.,
Broadway Video)" available now through kidsinthehall.com and hitting
stores in April. For a mini-history lesson, the package also includes
a 40 minute doc and rough footage of their early Tornto stage shows.
"I'm amazed at my incompetency," says Scott Thompson about watching
his fledgiling performances again. "I keep saying 'Why did they keep
me?'"
Might this chummy reunion lead to a new movie? Foley says it's a
possibility, but it's more "a question of whether anyone else wants us
to do one. Or whether there's active opposition. We could be making
our movie in Guantanamo." -Josh Wolk
