I actually attended a live taping of Big City Comedy. The only thing I remember about the show was John Candy, Tim Kazurinski and a few others doing a Village People "YMCA" parody song called "Down On The Farm". If you're thinking "that doesn't sound very funny", you're right, it wasn't. Probably why the show didn't last very long. After the show was taped I met John Candy and Martin Mull, both were very nice. I should have taken pictures!
