Bob and Doug McKenzie in SCTV season 3 opening
In the video SCTV season 3 opening, Bob and Doug McKenzie are a couple of imaginaryfunny Canadian comedians who can been seen in “Great White North”, a skit which was televised on SCTV for the show’s 3rd season when it got sent to the Canadian Broadcasting Channel in the eighties. Bob is created by comedian Rick Moranis and Doug is created by actor Dave Thomas. The bit was brought to life originally as a skit to both follow guidelines and mock dumb Canadian content rules, the two became a pop culture smash hit in both Canada and the States. The McKenzie siblings soon became the focus of a classic comedy album, The Great White North, in 1981.
SCTV, as aired in syndication during the 1980-81 season.

bob and doug mckenzie intro Robin,Duke,Joe,Flaherty,Eugene,Levy,Andrea,Martin,Rick,Moranis,Tony,Rosato,Dave,Thomas #SCTV #season #opening
Is it me for a moment or does Joe look unbelievably gorgeous in this sequence?
The theme tune wasn't a Canadian recording, or even commissioned for the program. I just found it was a De Wolfe library recording. You can even hear it in stereo in this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pc_ZUK1XmCo
Ha. I didn't remember Robin Duke being there for a season….
Loved how Joe Flaherty was playing a Russian with an obvious fake mustache.
Oh, I love the humorous irony…
"From the people who brought you the most popular TV show in syndication…" (TV sets shown being thrown out of apartment windows in a highrise.)
way better intro than that crappy syndication version
I watch this all the time in syndication and never knew why TVs were being thrown out of things. Now I know!
That original SCTV theme reminds me of ice hockey for some reason.
This was around the time John Candy started doing movies.
This was that weird season where Tony Rosato and Robin Duke stood in for John Candy and Catherine O'Hara.
Billy West's Big Voice Guy on Ren & Stimpy probably owes its existence to Dave Thomas' work on these intros.
I loved the urban myth that claimed the opening scene when those televisions were thrown from the apartment building was filmed when the Leafs got kicked out of the playoffs.
@chriszaharias1985 Robin Duke and Catherine O'Hara have been friends since childhood. Tony Rosato and John Candy were pretty tight too. Rick Moranis was brought in through Dave Thomas. Rosato wasn't the "token fat guy" and Moranis wasn't the "token nerdy guy",they all had different ranges.
This is the SCTV opening I remember. Any time you can make good use of old Atlas missile footage, you're doing the dang thing!
"..and even the tiny Republic of— plpppth."
If they'd left it there it would be even more hilarious!
…OH, but you did, YOU DID. Today you are on YOUTUBE.COM. SCTV cast…you have reached the world and beyond!
It hasn't worked out very well for Rosato….
@KomedyKollector – And Catherine O'Hara was trying her luck in the U.S., including a run on the very short lived "Steve Allen Comedy Hour" on NBC in 1980-81.
Because it took so long to get season 3 up and running, and by that time John Candy had already taken another job offer, "Big City Comedy" on CTV.
