Bob and Doug McKenzie in SCTV spoof of Ingmar Bergman’s Persona

In the video SCTV spoof of Ingmar Bergman’s Persona, Bob and Doug McKenzie are a duo of fictional Canadian comedians who are responsible for “Great White North”, a improv which was included on SCTV for the show’s 3rd season when it moved to CBC Television in the 80’s. The character Bob McKenzie is performed by the funny Rick Moranis and Doug’s character is brought to life by comic Dave Thomas. The bit was born originally as a sketch to both satisfy and laugh about annoying Canadian content guidelines, the pair became a pop culture hit in both Canada and across the border. The McKenzie siblings went on to become the focus of a bestselling comedy album, The Great White North, in 1981.
