Last Will and Temperament

 

Yesterday I put up a recording of Canadian comedy troupe The Frantics' well-known routine about the alleged martial art 'Ti Kwan Leep'.  It appears to have been well received;  there are lots of people coming here from the Internet and going straight to it, meaning the direct link has been passed around.

What I didn't know, but some commenters pointed out, was that this wasn't the first appearance of the 'Boot To The Head' line.  That, apparently, came in an earlier sketch titled 'Last Will and Temperament'.  Fortunately, YouTube has a recording of that one as well.



Thanks to commenters 'squisher' and 'Overload in Colorado' for mentioning it yesterday.

  1. Between The Frantics and Second City TV Canada has given us some first-tier comedy.

    SCTV is more visual but gave us John Candy, Rick Moranis, Eugene Levy, Andrea Martin, and Catherine O'Hara.

  2. Welcome!

    If ever a year needed more silliness and joy, this would be the one.

  3. I haven't heard that since high school. I think it was funnier this time around.

    Thanks for posting both of them.
