The Kids in the Hall sketch: "Seminar" (Season 2, Episode 8). If you like what you see here and want to see more, purchase the megaset at a bargain price: www.amazon.com...
A friend of mine actually ruined an EST seminar when they presenter made the mistake of pointing to him and asking him if he had any questions. The long and short of it is, my friend cost the guy everyone in the room from signing up for the paid seminar. 🤣
Wow, time capsule. Did this sketch with a classmate for high school drama class. We hadn't even seen it to know how to play it, we just pulled the transcript off the internet. I'm glad there's no tape of it.
Or, the Kids must have seem their share of motivational speakers themselves before writing this sketch. I don't wanna sound like the old guy here, but salesmen and the like have been using this same shitck since the 70s, and probably way before that.
"When I was 3 years old I didn't quite understand the value of a - Wait a second! How many people are watching Gord kiss money?" Nearly spit my coffee up. I could watch at least fifteen minutes of this skit. Easily one of the best KITH skits ever.

Trump University was a guide to house flipping and a pretty good one. Granted house flipping takes, resources, effort, and skill so most people probably did nothing with the info. It wasn't a get rich quick scheme...it was a blueprint for a grind that requires a lot of work.
Omg! I remember living through the days of money making schemes. Herbalife and Amway to name the biggest. And I love how they were exactly like this, telling you how you can make millions without saying how, just buy the seminar and watch it work.
My father sold some Amway (or at least tried) when I was a child in the early 80's. He worked at Chrysler, and that was a very popular so-called side hustle at their plant long before anyone coined the term "side hustle". He eventually gave it up, not too sure why. Think people just got tired of Amway...he made some extra money for a bit, but it just dried up, I guess...
The reason why some people mention that this feels like a lot of the current UA-cam financial gurus and a scam artists it's because it has always been this way. Always. The only thing that has changed is that now there's way more of them
I've had a lot of success in...selling many things. I mean legally. I succeeded most on the telephone, not very well in person. But man I was always either the best, or at LEAST top 3-5 sales in the office. I think it's fun. The psychology is fun!
Let me ask you a question. How many of you have UA-cam channels? All of you! And how many of you would like more subscribers? What If I told you that you already have one million potential subscribers? Would that interest you?

I love KITH, but I never was much of a fan of these types of sketches. I get it: yuppies They pretty much are saying the same things in every sketch. However, I do like the Danny Husk sketches. Maybe I feel like the others lack any kind of focus or narrative.
Apparently, you don’t get it. This is a skit that lampoons how seminars talk a great deal but never say much of anything at all. There is no real help or advice anywhere to be found here.
You just learned exactly EVERYTHING there is to be learned at a motivational seminar! No need to ever pay for one!!!

This resembles 99% of the financial gurus on UA-cam.
They really were ahead of their time
LinkedIn*
That was literally my first thought. This is not the first time I see one of their skits that feels accurately current.
Not to mention the MLM babes.
Bitcoin!
This is one of their best. It is very close to the real thing.
spot on actually depends how deep in the country you are😅
They definitely nailed it.
We were holding a seminar in Seattle... we conduct these seminars all over the world, but mostly, in Seattle...
I live how Mark could viably just pursue this career if he felt like it. Salesman Realness.
You live??

This is what I hear when Tony Robbins is speaking.

"How many people here have been hit by lightening? Oh OK all of you." I'm dying.
lightning
“And DONT. Let your BANKER. Tell ya DIFFERENT!” deserved a bigger laugh.
Yet another brilliant sketch from a brilliant show.
This skit was the inspiration for Glenngary Glen Ross.
“Wow... The Italians” 😂😂😂😂
Wow, present day motivational speakers must have seen this!

lmao lmao lmao yes yes same spot
Just like a Nikken/Amway/ Herbalife presentation. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
How much funnier were these guys than SNL?
as I understand it they wrote for snl back when it was funny, and the crazier stuff stayed in this show.
Now thats money momentum
“And money never says no”
I’m heading down to the bank to withdraw my $2,000,000, and I’m NOT going to let them tell me different!
"Alright, listen carefully;
different."
Arrest for bankrobery?
As a fat kid from Seattle... I'm in!
That's some great casting, the smiling dude in the front row with the giant hairdo!
This is exactly like every time someone tries to sell bitcoin to me..
lol these guys, great skit!
How many people suppressed a gag reflex watching Gord eat that money?
Before he actually put the money in his mouth, I was gagging!!
Absolutely brilliant!
Ending a sketch is not easy. Even for the best
Monty Python would have the bad sketch police show up to arrest everybody for not ending the sketch properly.

I love this story
This might be the greatest motivational sesh I've ever seen. And I'm over 55.
I'd buy that, for a dollar!
A seminar at Trump University!
that fucker is exactly like these guys.
Yuuuge seminar!

wow! the italians!
Wow, the Italians
reminds me of Bitconnect!
I met these guys!
Judging by the luck of the audience there's a good chance that whatever crap they're trying to pull would actually work somehow.
Everyone in the presentation's audience is now dead.
Not Gene
Those suit prices don't seem as steep as they used to be...
To make money I just need a piece of chalk. I feel great now.
I keep waiting for them to say something but it never happens.
Everybody in the audience had been hit by lightning.
Exactly.
UA-cam ads today.
What do you call a person who grew up in Seattle but now lives somewhere else? A Seattle lite . Ha ha . I'll show myself out .
I'm gonna go neck with some money. lol
Totally my idea of what a suit should look like.
Omg! I remember living through the days of money making schemes. Herbalife and Amway to name the biggest. And I love how they were exactly like this, telling you how you can make millions without saying how, just buy the seminar and watch it work.
Oh yeah. I never listened to them back then. 😂
Sadly they are still going quite strong. Mostly they've switched to online MLMs and they are everywhere these days. I think it's quite sad.
Wush
Gonna take a quick SURVEY

This is the same philosophy behind the evangelical Christians who preach the “prosperity gospel”.
Too true.
Some good info in there.
Fucking brilliant !
Are these the same characters that sold poreef?
They are.
Yup there is also a sketch where they are selling DVDs to kids in a hospital.
@@thepayne7862 And don't forget about the self-playing piano at the mall.
@@cityhawk i had forgotten about that one.
Money Momentum and very Funny but very Cruel are phases that have been in vocabulary since first seeing this on HBO late night Friday.
But wait... There's more!! Classic sales pitches of pyramid schemes...
I've had a lot of success in...selling many things. I mean legally. I succeeded most on the telephone, not very well in person. But man I was always either the best, or at LEAST top 3-5 sales in the office. I think it's fun. The psychology is fun!
28 people have no money momentum
not the man in the eleven hundred dollar suit...c'mon!!
Nice GOB reference!
Genius ........
Pull some out and hoark it back
Now while he’s kissing money haha
all of you!
"__________" fawk yeah
Tsss
Hiliarous🤖
Guys like this travel all over the flyover states doing seminars like this, common as houseflies.
Houseflies is a perfect way to put it. 👍
I have money momentum!
You lost me...
Front door? Already got one, thank you.
Whoa whoa whoa... I'm gonna tell you something, and I don't want you to take it personally... but you're not a very good UA-cam commenter, are you?
THERE'S A GUY.
Buy this vacuum.
This is what Gary Vee would be like if he had a friend
🤣🤣🤣🤣

So ..is this about Primerica ? Lol
We've got 2 million dollars now!
Yeah, but it's Canadian dollars...what is that, like 50 bucks?
Seattle Canada.
Funkmike You only wish you had 2 million Canadian dollars!
Did David Byrne write this script? Because it is a road to nowhere. A long road...
Too bad it ended before telling me how I could make all that money.
Trump university classes are online now I see.
Good one.

Really thought they were gonna go somewhere with this sketch. But then it just ended.
Aren't these the same guys selling Por-eef? And isn't "Gord" the one trying to lease underwear from a dude on the laundromat?
Forex flashbacks...
👁️👄👁️
Sums up NFTs and crypto bros
I can year Jess from RLM in the audience...maybe
Tai Lopez
Bank vaults would suffocate you eventually
Because all the air would be taken up by your money potential.
While hes kissing money
YOURE NOT PAUL BELLINI AND YOU SHOULDNT PRETEND YOU ARE. THERE I SAID IT.
I don’t get it
Making you the sucker, rube, chump, mark, tool. Trump loves the poorly educated
they never say anything of substance or give any real advice, like in most seminars

Laugh all you want. Their system really works. I just typed in $2,000,000 right from my phone.
Wow, the Italians
