    Absolutely the worst movie.

    It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

    It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

    I have always loved this show,from its British beginnings to Drew Carey (less enthusiastic about Ms. Tyler). How could you NOT love: 1) "Superheros" ("Thank God you're here, Rogaineman") 2) Sid Caesar literally stopping the show; 3) Richard Simmons OWNING the sketch where he and Wayne Brady played the props ("I'll be ALL the props for THESE men!"). I have NEVER laughed so hard in my LIFE. I'm taking up jet-skiing this summer! 4) Wayne Brady could have been another John Legend/Smoky Robinson/Marvin Gaye outside of his comedy career, but the song parodies were priceless. 5) Greg Proops, Ryan Stiles, and Colin Mochrie--and think about it, what a perfect name for a comedian (mockery)--were GREAT GREAT GREAT!!! 6) The outtakes are on YouTube. 7) "Helping Hands" was a holdover from the British version, but still clever and funny. 8) Film Noir, World's worst dating video, and yes, even Irish Drinking Song, and even Hoedown were really good, and you didn't have to understand the genre to get it.Well Done, gentlemen, and may you have new life in syndication.

    Wildly original, laugh-out-loud funny, impressing performances. That and more is Whose Line Is It Anyway?I started watching this show around 2001 and been loving it ever since. I didn't know much about improv comedy before watching this and was pleasantly surprised afterwards.Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie, Wayne Brady, Greg Proops, Brad Sherwood, Chip Esten, Jeff Davis and more are the people who have to act out scenes using improvisation as their only tool. It's great to see a show that manages to be so creative and funny at the same time and allowing the performers to show their wide abilities. Whether it's Ryan playing a foal being born, Colin playing a man being gradually eaten by ants, or Wayne and Jeff singing an opera about motorcycles, this show has it all.Hosted by Drew Carey, who does a good job of interacting with the performers and even participating in a skit at the end. He's not that good at improv, but one of the great things about Whose Line is that even when the performers can't entirely handle a game (like Colin in If You Know What I Mean) it's hilarious as well.So, get ready for some of the best material that comedy has to offer. Tapioca!

    This show would of been a lot lot better if it didn't have Wayne Brady showing off at every opportunity. I don't mean this spitefully - but he actually 'blocks' the other players a lot. For example - if they are all playing the dating game and Brady is No.1, Mocherie No.2 and Styles No.3 - Brady does his usual over the top (and very loud) 'I love myself routine' and then when it is the turn of No.2 - he will inevitably encroach his 'talent' into their slot and steal the laugh. I genuinely thinks he is more self motivated than team motivated and it spoilt the series. Steve Frost did similar blocking in the UK version (often Steve Frost didn't listen to what his teammates were saying/doing instead he just blurted out things he thought were funny).The other thing is the self appointed shows' host Drew Cary. Oddly enough he likes to leave his desk and take part in the improvisation near the end of every show - which he clearly has no talent for. When ever he is involved in something he giggles and drops his comic professionalism and comes out with the lamest lines. His humour seems to revolve around sex all the time and innuendo - which is fine occasionally but 'all the time' is just cheap. I really do not see any justification for this guy being in comedy at all to be honest I cannot remember the last time he did anything funny.Ignoring these two people - the show was always worth a look in for Styles & Mocheries very funny professionalism...thanks to hard drive recorders you can easily skip the Brady and Cary stuff --- its just a shame they take up so much of the show.

    Whose line is it anyway is without drought, the funniest show on television. It brings Wayne Brady, Colin Mochary, Ryan styles, some other random guest, and host drew carry for one of the best 30 minutes on television. It features now-famous skits like party quirks, lets make a date, whose line and weird newscasters. Wayne does all the singing, and is amazing at being able to make up funny rhymes. Colin is the target of bald jokes, and gets all the good quirks. Ryan is usually an animal, but is good at it. Drew Carrysd just there to be the target of cruel jokes, and to award points.Whose line makes racism and being sexist seem all right. easily one of the best shows on television.10/10
