Kids In The Hall Returns

It's been a long 20 years for fans of the famed Canadian comedy troupe Kids In The Hall.

Their self-titled show debuted on the CBC back in 1988, but the five members went their separate ways in 1994.

Now they're back with an eight episode miniseries, cheerfully entitled "Death Comes To Town."

As in the original, the actors - Dave Foley, Mark McKinney, Kevin McDonald, Bruce McCulloch and Scott Thompson - will play a variety of roles.

It won't be the first time they've gotten back together. Earlier this year, they re-united for a cross-Canada tour.

"The Kids In The Hall are exactly the same only we're older," joked McDonald at the time.

"Now we're smart...we're smart about banking things," he added.
