Bob and Doug McKenzie in THE DEATH OF DAVE THOMAS

In the video THE DEATH OF DAVE THOMAS, Bob and Doug McKenzie are a couple of hysterical Canadian brothers who are responsible for “Great White North”, a skit which was aired on second city television for the show’s third season when it was broadcast on the Canadian Broadcasting Channel in the 1980s. The character Bob McKenzie is performed by the funny Rick Moranis and Doug’s part is played by comic Dave Thomas. It was born originally as a skit to both follow guidelines and laugh at network Canadian content rules, the two grew up to be a pop culture smash hit in both Canada and the USA. The pair became the focus of a hit comedy album, The Great White North, in 1981.
