It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I do not think I have watched any comedy series without laughing 90% of every single show. The guests have always been top notch (perhaps with the exception of Ardal O Hanlon) and they never fail to make me laugh. This is what I believe to be true comedy, the art of improvisation. You get something different every time and it must require great talent to adapt to these situations so quickly! Highlights of this programme include Party Quirks and Standing, sitting, bending. Clive Anderson makes a very droll host. I believe the British version to be superior due to less whooping from the audience (although the American audiences are better participators!). Although we have our fair share of great comedians on here including Tony Slattery, Jim Sweeney and Josie Lawrence to name but a few, the Americans and Canadians bring a fair share of laughter. My particular favourite is Ryan Stiles, who in my eyes is a modern comedy genius! Closely followed by the lovely Colin Mochrie.I thoroughly recommend this program. Comedy has never been done so good.

Yes, the British version was perhaps better and Drew isn't Clive but he's not bad. But I also thought Greg vs. Clive was among the highlights of the British series. Everyone vs. Drew is also funny at times, especially when Drew gets that look when he knows what's coming, but somehow the British-American repartee works better in my opinion.Except for Drew, the cast members at the end of the British version were pretty much the same as the American version.I never cared much for the "three-headed" singing but Wayne's song improv is quite brilliant. (I suspect the music part is somewhat rehearsed and the words improvised to the music. I would imagine several musical styles might be prepared in advance.) I think the game where they sing to an audience member is a bit embarrassing and I only hope they give their permission to be "picked" beforehand.

The best thing about this show was Tony Slattery. He was the best improviser on the show, ever since he did he first show. He brought unpredictability to the show. He even did crazy impersonations, funny dances, and was not afraid to do anything. He even comes up with the best hoedowns.Yes, Ryan and Colin are classic performers, but Tony was the real deal. He made me laugh the most. He defined Whose Line. Some word of advice to ABC: BRING TONY BACK.

Ever since I saw my first episode, I've loved it! "Hoe down" is my favorite. (I've even come up with some of my own.) "World's worst" is always funny. "Props" is interesting, especially since I tried it one night sitting at dinner with my family. You just have to love the singing games, be it Michael Mc Shane's bartending or Josie's prison visits, it's all good! Greg Proops is undeniably my favorite, although my sister puts up a good case for Ryan Stiles too. Tony is the best Brit of the bunch. He always has good jokes and references. Clive also puts up with the jokes as well, though he can dish it out, usually to Greg. "Superheroes" is usually good, though sometimes I think they have run out of ideas. Keep 'em coming!!!!
