This thread is for the most funniest, my most favoritest (is that a word?) improvisational show on TV.

I don't think I need to say more about this thread, but to get the ball rolling, I'll post a vid (warning, some may contain suggestive humor and language):

For those who have not seen the show, a description per wikipedia:

Quote:

The show consists of a panel of four performers who create characters, scenes and songs on the spot, in the style of short-form improvisation games, many taken from theatresports. Topics for the games are based on either audience suggestions or predetermined prompts from the host. Both the British and the American shows ostensibly take the form of a game show with the host arbitrarily assigning points and likewise choosing a winner at the end of each episode. However, the show lacks the true stakes and competition of a game show (by design). The "game show" format is simply part of the comedy.

Two of the cons I go to, SakuraCon and KumoriCon, put on a Whose Line show, and they are just as funny as the real show.

I like most of the show, I thought most of the songs where lame though.

My cabin-mates and I did an improve show at a camp once, where I was the clerk at a gas station called "get n' go away". Everything was $9.95.

At the end, the youngest member picked up some bug spray on the "counter" and sprayed it in my eyes.

To this day, I lament the fact that I was in too much agony to say "That'll be $9.95".

Both the US and UK versions, I feel are funny in their own right. Maybe it's the slight differences in cultural ways, but some people dislike the US version.

I used to watch this every week (the UK version, presented by Clive Anderson). It was great fun, expecially the 2 regulars, Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie.

Have enjoyed pretty much all the whose line i've seen and heard. The radio show is on youtube, or it was. Worth a listen though I doubt it translates very well except Stephen fry rapping, just silly in all cultures lol

I love Whose Line is it Anyway, although I've seen more of the UK version than the US. I'm pretty sure we had some on DVD, could have been my sisters though.

I own all three DVD sets of the US version that have been released. I love watching them when I can; they've gotten me by in those long roadtrips.

I thought it was pretty funny but I didn't care for Drew Carey as host.
