Bob and Doug McKenzie in WTF Happened to RICK MORANIS?
In the video WTF Happened to RICK MORANIS?, Bob and Doug McKenzie are a pair of made up Canadian family members who were featured in “Great White North”, a skit which was streamed on SCTV – second city television for the show’s most watched season when it streamed by the Canadian Broadcasting Channel in in the early 80s. Bob’s part is brought to life by actor Rick Moranis and Doug’s character is created by Dave Thomas. Despite born originally as fluff to both follow guidelines and mock non sensical Canadian content guidelines, the two transformed into a pop culture phenomenon in both Canada and across the border. The pair enetually would become the focus of a an amazing comedy album, The Great White North, in 1981.
If you’re a child of the eighties, you’ll remember Rick Moranis. He was one of the biggest comic stars of the era, with iconic roles in GHOSTBUSTERS I & II, HONEY, I SHRUNK THE KIDS and many more. But, somewhere around the mid-nineties, Moranis seemed to drop off the map, vanishing from sight, only returning for the occasional voice role in things like Disney’s BROTHER BEAR.
In our latest edition of WTF Happened to This Celebrity, we try to figure out why Moranis seemingly abandoned his thriving Hollywood career. It turns out that Moranis simply decided to focus on things that were more important to him (family). We dig into this as well as his career origins on SCTV, where he and co-star Dave Thomas famously created the beer-swilling Canucks, Bob & Doug McKenzie, before hitting the big time with a feature film (STRANGE BREW) that remains a cult classic. From there, Moranis’ career was on fire, with him taking over for John Candy as Louis Tully in GHOSTBUSTERS, before becoming an unlikely (and famous) leading man in his own comedies, including HONEY, I SHRUNK THE KIDS (and its sequel HONEY, I BLEW UP THE KID), LITTLE GIANTS, PARENTHOOD, and more.

Great video
I'm glad he didn't have an awful time in Hollywood
the narrator is so cringe
Not saying Ghostbusters doesn't deserve all the hype, but for me, his best & most memorable performance is hands-down Little Shop of Horrors. Still think it's an underrated classic.
I fucking love the way you ended that video, man. My hat's off to you. I've always loved and respected Rick Moranis myself, but it's nice to see that you do as well.
I offer free body guard service to Rick at any time and place I possibly could! He is a North American treasure!
Miss him, but he did the right thing.
Hands down Rick Moranis’ best role was when he played Dark Helmet in Spaceballs
Moranis’ portrayal of Barney Rubble is peak male
I couldn't believe after watching one of his movies the last time he was on screen was 97! And didn't know his backstory…some guy!
"Ok who brought the dog?" is still one of my fave lines from Ghostbusters.
I love gravedale high by the way
How many years can a parent raise their kids until it's no longer necessary? Everyone in the comments say he was raising his kids instead being an actor, but wouldn't his kids be in their late 20s or something by now?
Little Giants is the best movie ever! Loved that movie as a kid.
It’s not Ghostbusters it’s not honey I Strunk the kids it’s not honey I don’t know but it is the most famous movie of all little shop little shop of horrors bop Shabbat never gonna stop the bop cannot
nothing happened he did what any good father would do when he was the only parent there for them
Little Shop of Horrors. There's a part where he's singing to the Plant in the song "Feed Me" where he goes, "I don't know, I don't knooooowww" now due to limitations of the puppet, they had to shoot slower than normal. So Rick Moranis had to time the singing and movements and perform it at half speed himself to get that shot.
Oh my gosh. I never picked up that the Flinstones…. was him! xD
Strange Brew is a classic showcase of 80s comedy
