=== "Just for Laughs" ("Juste Pour Rire") Comedy Festival === In July 2007, the Kids reunited to perform at the 25th Annual "[[Just for Laughs]]" ("Juste Pour Rire") Comedy Festival in [[Montreal]]. The Just For Laughs show premiered about 90 minutes of new material. While certain characters made reappearances (Buddy Cole, Mr. Tyzik and McKinney and McCulloch's "smooth-talking" salesmen), the rest of the show revolved around entirely new material. Typically good-humored, the group poked numerous jokes at their own recent weight gain, and the state of their post-Kids acting careers. Among the sketches: * The Kids plan a new show. For the opening, they rape McDonald to the theme from ''[[Footloose]]''. * Salesmen (McCulloch and McKinney) promote a device which can siphon fat from the American gut and use it to power [[SUV]]s. * "Carfuckers": a group of mechanics who share a "love for which there is no name". The sketch was produced by an internet studio called "60Frames Entertainment".<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.60frames.com/kidsinthehall| title=Car Fuckers Video| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120416003414/http://www.60frames.com/kidsinthehall| archive-date=April 16, 2012| website=60Frames Entertainment| url-status=dead}}</ref> * Gavin encounters [[Jehovah's Witnesses]] (one of two sketches recreated from the television show). * Foley and McDonald get drunk; Foley tells McDonald he has created a time machine with which he can "defeat last call". * Foley travels back in time to receive [[oral sex]] from his wife (McCulloch), who would only perform the act on his birthday. * Foley travels back in time to kill [[Adolf Hitler]] (Thompson) but instead accidentally inspires his [[antisemitism]]. * Two exceptionally literate [[rat-catcher]]s (McCulloch and McKinney) look for a used futon. * Buddy Cole speculates that [[Jesus]] was homosexual. * Kathy (McCulloch) and Cathy (Thompson) reunite for lunch in a restaurant, where Kathy extols the virtues of "tweeking" with [[methamphetamine]]. * Foley is approached by a "fan" (Thompson) while waiting for the subway. * A McCulloch monologue about how skinny [[Nicole Richie]] is. * Foley and McCulloch fight over an imaginary girlfriend. * The Chicken Lady has [[phone sex]] (one of two sketches recreated from the television show). * The relationship woes of a gay couple (Foley and Thompson) are placated with the help of another married gay couple known as Peter and the Professor (McDonald and McKinney). * Superdrunk: a [[superhero]] who stops crimes by drinking (McCulloch), assisted by his trusty sidekick, the bartender (Foley). * The show finished with Mr. Tyzik (McKinney) mocking the mannerisms and careers of each member of the troupe, after which he promptly crushed their heads. The group also performed on January 26β27, 2008, at the SF Sketchfest. On January 26, there was a retrospective and Q&A with the group.
