    It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.

    I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

    It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

    I hadn't seen this show until it was repeated on Dave. I became aware of it after seeing The Comedy Store Players, a group of comedians which includes Josie Lawrence.I enjoy the unpredictability of Whose Line is it Anyway and the diversity of the performers. The fact that the show had both English and American comedians made it better.The best performance ever had to be when Josie Lawrence and Caroline Quentin sung a duet about a beached whale. Admitedly that description may not sound funny, but if you've seen it you'll know how good it was.Colin Mochrie and Ryan Stiles were a great double act. They were particularly good at the round where they were given two completely random lines to incorporate into a sketch.Other improv shows such as Mock The Week are good, but Whose Line is it Anyway will always be the king of Improvised Comedy shows

    This is truly a great show. I don't know were they found the guys to it. Greg Proops, Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie, Tony Slattery, Josie Lawernce, Mike Mcshane, and Brad Sharwood to name a few are great at this. This is the stuff that makes me want to be an actor. Terrific!!!

    No one can host this show as great as Clive Anderson did (sorry, Drew Carey). The improvers, of course, are spectacular. Many of them (Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie, Wayne Brady, Greg Proops, Brad Sherwood) can be seen on the current American series, as well as some of the same games. Why mess with success?

    Many of my friends simply don't understand British comedy. Greats such as "Monty Python's Flying Circus", "Black Adder", and "Are You Being Served?" are mis-understood by many North Americans, although they are some of the funniest shows on television.With the introduction of the original "Who's Line Is It Anyway?", improv was brought into the home by the people who could do it the best... and the result is spectacular. The only regular appearance throughout the life of this show was the host, Clive Anderson. He does an excellent job at pulling the show together, introducing the skits, and bantering back and forth with the contestants. In particular, his on-screen disagreements and arguments with Greg Proops in the latter years of this show provide raw and unrehearsed comedic entertainment, often at the expense of Clive's balding head.Overall, the performers on this show know their comedy. Skits are done at the drop of a hat, with no advance knowledge by the contestants of what sort of antics will be required to pull them off. Games such as 'Scenes From A Hat', 'Film Dub', 'Questions Only', and the infamous 'Hoe Down', only serve to display the comedic talents of the contestants, allowing them to amaze and surprise the viewer with their seemingly endless quips, jabs, and one-liners.From the witty John Sessions in the early years, to the comedic improv super-duo of Colin Mochrie and Ryan Stiles in the later years, and who can forget the hyper-but-fantastic Tony Slattery, this show has entertained me for many years, and will continue to do so for a long time to come, as I just can't seem to stop watching the re-runs on cable.My Rating: 10/10
