Does anyone remember the sketch show "The Vacant Lot"?

Reminiscent of The Kids In The Hall. This first sketch is hilarious.

Blinded by the light song while playing cards was epic.

Hell yes! I still get that song “He slept on his arms last night,” in my head from time to time

I just posted the "Blinded By the Light" sketch somewhere yesterday!

I was just talking about this show the other day with one of my friends. This was the one that had the sketches about Jesus in high school and one with a guy saying he could do anything through a hole in a sheet, right?

"It wasn't a boner, it was a spoon. I had a pudding for lunch." I had four episodes recorded and always wish I had more.

"Slept on His Arms Last Night" is STILL stuck in my stupid head.

I have only the vaguest recollection of this one; I remember watching a couple episodes but can’t recall any of the sketches.

I had the nose hair sketch rolling around in my brain for decades but couldn't remember what show it was from. Then another post on Reddit reminded me of what the show was called. [Same kind of thing with this sketch.](https://youtu.be/amZxl2qhdP4?si=CIOwy-Y1pQQ7fbQ_)

It was basically Kids in the Hall: JV Squad. Toronto, featured Mark McKinney's little brother. I thought it was significantly stronger than The State's first season and a shame it didn't last at least a little longer.

I agree. I preferred this to The State. The State was a little too "LoL i Am sO rAnD0m!11!" It had its moments, though.

Even if a lot of it was dumb, it launched the careers of so many amazing comedic performers.

The first season of The State was unwatchable. I remember seeing "You'll Always Give Me a Boner" and thinking "You need eleven people for this shit?" I do think it improved considerably and Ken Marino is one of the funniest dudes.

I'll see your Vacant Lot and raise you Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie. https://youtu.be/zcdHsAyjV-w?si=NsapZby-ogAOZ9tL (Part 1 of episode 1, all 5 eps are on that channel)

Not many have. Amongst my friends we often referenced the Little Beefalo but people thought we made it up. Hope you find something in those shows that tickles your fancy.
