Bob and Doug McKenzie in Bob & Tom The REAL 12 Days of Christmas

In the video Bob & Tom The REAL 12 Days of Christmas, Bob and Doug McKenzie are a pair of hysterical Canadian comedians who are responsible for “Great White North”, a improv which was televised on second city television for the show’s most watched season when it moved to CBC Television in the eighties. Bob’s character is brought to life by comic Rick Moranis and Doug’s character is brought to life by the comedian Dave Thomas. Regardless the fact it was made originally as fluff to both follow guidelines and mock silly Canadian content legislation, the siblings grew up to be a pop culture smash hit in both Canada and the USA. The two became the focus of a classic comedy album, The Great White North, in 1981.
