Well known to fans as a member of the sketch comedy troupe, The Kids in the Hall, Scott Thompson is anything but your average comedic talent. After Lorne Michaels discovered them in the late eighties, The Kids in the Hall became a groundbreaking television series which ran from 1989 to 1995 on the CBC in Canada and on HBO and CBS in the United States. After the Kids left television in 1995, Scott and the boys went on to write and star in their own feature film, the cult favorite Brain Candy. In 2020, Amazon announced they would be bringing back an eight-episode order of the critically-acclaimed cult sketch series which made its premiere in May 2022. Scott currently recurs on the CBC/HBO Max hit series Sort Of playing the role of Bryce and starred as Dr. Pfeffer in the Arnold Schwarzenegger action-comedy project FUBAR which ran for 2 seasons on Netflix. From 1995 to 1998 Scott appeared as a series regular for three seasons on Garry Shandling’s revolutionary comedy series, The Larry Sanders Show playing Brian, the assistant to Hank Kingsley. In this period and afterwards, he made numerous guest appearances on various talk shows such as Politically Incorrect, The Late Show with David Letterman and was a regular fixture on Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
