The sketch would typically begin with Lothar's theme song, sung in full chorus over footage of Lothar running across his native hills. Lothar would address the camera with the words "I am Lothar of the Hill People! Much have I seen, and much have I done, for I am Lothar of the Hill People!" Then Lothar (Mike Myers), a fearsome barbarian chieftain, would join his fellow chieftains, Org of the Bog People (Jon Lovitz) and Tyler of the T- Birds (Phil Hartman) around a fire pit to talk about domestic troubles, the minor annoyances of day to day life and their difficulties coping with their spouses.
