BRUCE McCULLOCH.


The Maddening Art of Television Comedy
By Kevin Brooker.

You haven’t toured Universal Studios until you do it on the back of a golf cart driven by Bruce McCulloch.
“You hicks love this stuff,” he shouts back at his buddies from Calgary, careening around the corner from South Spielberg Drive onto Psycho Pass, just below the Bates Motel and across from the Jaws pond where the breaching-shark gag, more than a little tatty, is frightening yet another busload of tourists.
But what the hicks really love is seeing authentic stars, and as we overtake the studio tour’s canopied people-mover, all eyes strain to see which Hollywood eminences might be riding in the back of the golf cart. Feeling their stares, I wonder for whom I might be mistaken. Is Wally Cox still acting?

These drawing were a little challenging: capturing the likeness of a group of aging comedians is not the easiest task. McCulloch's distinct chin line and permanently youthful allowed me to paint at will, while finding a balance between Foley's old swooped hair and his new died spiky look complete with goatee, was a little trickier. In the end I painted from photos of all of the Kids In The Hall, applied a healthy dose of the 'Luckhurst Rudolph Nose Style' and viola!; finished illustrations.
