It's not really a secret that today's Canadian television content is horrendous. Most television in general is horrible but the Canadian broadcasters have a real knack for playing the safe hand when it comes to originality. Because of this, we're given shows that don't try anything new but only try to mimic the larger budget American productions. So to see something as unique and brilliant as Kenny Hotz's Triumph of the Will slip through the cracks and make it on to television really gives one hope that someday the Canadian film and television industry will embrace the homegrown talent and stop trying to be American.
Taking a journalistic approach to his antics, Kenny Hotz throws himself against human morality and tackles some of life's problems with a unique perspective and artistic production values. Whether it be making it as an immigrant by starting off in the Nevada desert stark naked without a single penny to his name or finding true love for his widowed Mother, Kenny will entertain like none other.
The sad part to this though will be the struggle for the show to see a life past the 6 episode, first season. Already fighting an uphill battle, the show has been given a Friday time slot and is being broadcast on Action Showcase oppose to the mother channel, Showcase. But that doesn't mean it's over. If you haven't seen it already, go watch it immediately (you can find the first 4 episodes on the Action Showcase website). For those of you unsure about it, it's not Kenny vs Spenny but you would be wrong to dismiss it for that reason. People grow with time, most often moving onto greater things and in this case it's no different. Kenny Hotz's Triumph of the Will is one of many steps towards greater Canadian content and in the end, it all boils down to what people as a whole watch.

This show is amazing. Kenny vs. Spenny was brilliant. KVS brought 2 polar opposites pitting against each other in a competition with hilarious and many times shocking results. In KVS, Kenny was the laid back, offensive, hilarious evil genius. In Triumph Of The Will, Kenny brings out a whole new persona. Hes smart, caring, confident and daring. This show is absolutely hilarious and insanely entertaining. This show is proof that Kenny doesn't need Spenny around to make fun of, he is a hilarious visionary on his own. I advise everybody reading this review to buy season 1 on iTunes. This show NEEDS a second season. Bravo Kenny, Bravo.
Triumph of the will was simply amazing. Not only did the mother episode actually almost make me cry, the Kennibal episode got my girlfriend pregnant (were naming him Kenny!).
But in all seriousness, I loved how it was a cross between documentary and comedy. It reminded me of "Penn and Tellers Bullshit!". Yours was better of course and I'm really hoping for a new season. I applaud you, you did a stand up job.
One thing people will notice in this show is its a more "real" Kenny. In Kenny vs Spenny, Mr. Hotz was constantly harassing Spenny and doing whatever it took to win. Now with this, you get to see a more thoughtful, down to earth, less "evil" Kenny which is a great change. I loved him in KvS, don't get me wrong, but after this season i have much more respect for him.
Cant wait for season two!

Its new its fresh its different
I have watched the first 4 episodes and been stunned in shock and enthralled with laughter it makes you laugh it makes you cry and everything in between. The fact that it is so different means you are automatically intrigued. When people who follow this sort of media hear the name Kenny Hotz they think kenny vs spenny but this is kenny vs kenny and kenny vs the world with the added humour we saw in kenny vs spenny. I look forward to the rest of the episodes and for kenny's future projects his solo career is just beginning sit back and enjoy the ride its just beginning i think that i can say for all fans of kenny WE LOVE THIS KENNY!

Kenny Hotz's new TV show is outstanding. I couldn't have imagined it would be that excelling, with every episode better then the next but at the same time each episode being unique. I must put up my hand up and say that i am a fan of Kenny vs Spenny, but now i am a greater fan of Triumph of the Will.
Triumph of the Will shows a more "grown up" Kenny, Not only has he got grey hair now but he has shifted his intellect and cunning from picking on Spenny and targeted it on to the world and it's problems.
Throughout the series Kenny shows that humans can do incredible things, like showing you if you are down on luck to sit near people that have worse luck and that his mum is very dear to his heart.
Overall i gave this show a 11 out of 10 the i removed a point off for making it soo hard to watch in Australia... can't even buy it on iTunes (in Australia) or watch it on the site (in Australia) and many people don't have paid TV in wait for it....Australia.
Kenny if you read this review come to Australia mate and i'll chuck a shrimp on the barbie for you or pork if you still do eat pig.
