Toronto Loves Kenny vs. Spenny

Kenny vs. Spenny is quite possibly the funniest Toronto-born comedy on TV since Kids In The Hall. Filmed here, KVS pits “best friends” Kenny Hotz and Spencer “Spenny” Rice against each other in a number of oddball competitions. The contests range from ‘Who Can Stay Naked The Longest’, to ‘Who Do Kids Like The Most’. The lloser gets humiliated on television in a manner of the winner’s choosing.As popularity for the show grows, the two stars are finding themselves recognized more and more. Kenny, for example, is at the awkward celebrity phase of not being able to skip the line at The Boat, while the entire line recognizes him and congratulates him on his fine show. “It’s getting crazy. But people are very nice,” says Spenny.
The show originally aired on CBC but never really found its place there. Eventually the show was pulled and later adopted by Showcase. Spenny explains, “the show was too wild for CBC. Once they accidentally ran one of our promos in the toddler block and they received a lot of complaints.”
Recently returning to Toronto to film the third season of KVS, Spenny and Kenny were kind enough to answer a few questions I had for them. I warn you, some of the answers they gave were quite offensive. (more…)

Did YOU Get The Memo?

It’s always a delight to see what art Toronto’s newest talent is producing. Student shows, while sometimes hit or miss, are often worth the time. Whether it’s the excitement of seeing their work on the wall for the first time, or that their spirits haven’t yet been crushed by the reality of the art world, artwork made by young people has a certain freshness that is often lacking from more mature artists. That’s why tonight I’m going to be attending the opening reception of the U of T Visual Studies thesis class’s end-of-year show, “Memoranda”.“For the last year, third and fourth year students enrolled in U of T’s Visual Studies program have been working collaboratively to organize an exhibition of their artwork, ” writes Elizabeth Underhill in her article for U of T’s student rag, The Newspaper.
“Memoranda” is on display at 30 St Clair Ave. W. Suite 103, from 11am-5pm, and officially opens Saturday April 8 from 5pm-11pm with an introduction by Associate Chair of Visual Studies Lisa Steele. “Memoranda” continues from 11am-5pm, April 11th,12th and 13th, and closes on the 15th .

Breathing Class Brand Launches

Although their website is still being constructed, Breathing Class — the newest kids on the Toronto clothing design block — are selling a limited sample run of T-Shirts to anyone smart enough to ask.Here are some photos from their release party.
Until their website jumps off, you can order the shirts via email. To see the available T’s check out their MySpace page. It looks as if they’ve sold out of their men’s sizes, so this might be a female-only affair until further notice.

City Hall is Under Attack!

Actually it’s not under attack. It looks like Toronto’s City Hall is being used in yet another blockbuster movie. You may remember it being blown to pieces in Resident Evil 2. -
