[@paularietta6744]

One of the funniest shows ever, - wish it was still on.

[@JohnWarner-lu8rq]

Drew Carey is a comedian from my hometown of Cleveland, Ohio. He toured for many years, got this show, and for 10+ years he's been the host of the Price Is Right.

[@natespost]

This cast is hilariously brilliant. Colin and Ryan are hilarious.

[@UndeadSlayer35]

They do come up with all of this stuff on the fly! It's crazy how good they are!

The Drew Carey Show was a sitcom that ran for 9 seasons from 1995 to 2004. Ryan Stiles (tall guy, big nose) and Ryan Stiles (bald guy) were part of the main cast of the show alongside Drew, and they were also regulars on Whose Line, which first aired in the US between 1998 and 207. The show originally started in Britain under the same name. They would often have Wayne Brady on as well, but there was often a guest player as well. Aisha Taylor becamse the host when The CW picked up the show in 2013. TL;DR - Drew is the original American host from '95-'04; Aisha became the host when the show was revived in '13.

The tall gentleman whose tie you commented on is Ryan Stiles. Among other things, he was on the Drew Carey show. He was also a regular cast member on the original British Who's Line, along with the older gentleman, Colin Mochrie. They're both pretty good at long-form improv with other actors, but together they are hysterical and almost always come up with something side-splitting. There are long-time running jokes between them (and other cast members). Just don't ever make a bald joke about Colin unless you want swift and brutal retaliation. The man is a BEAST.

[@patrickmcgavin2245]

The best game in who's line is it anyway is sound effects. The show was in the early 90's. Then revived in '98. Ran for 8 seasons. Then revived again in 2013 with Aisha Tyler. Of course with drew Carey in Las Vegas it's not called who's line. It's the same type of show.

[@Gr8movies12]

This shows been on for 30+ years originally coming from United Kingdom. Fantastic show, we used to watch it and play the game in my 10th and 11th grade drama class. Wanna die laughing find the Richard Simmons and Robin Williams episodes. Also the videos of Ryan and Colin greatestest hits is some of the best comedy around. 😂

[@THEDisneyNerd]

2 lines and Irish drinking song are the best segments

[@martint.ingham7132]

I absolutely loved Whose Line back during the original Drew Carey run. They even had an episode with Robin Williams doing improv! Comedic gold!

[@cainross7722]

I LOVED this show, especially the bloopers. Loved the Robin Williams episodes. There is a show called "thank God you're here" that I think you will like aswell

[@mitzifrancis9843]

One of my favorite segments was song stylings. 🎵 The host would select a musical style (like country, heavy metal, punk) and ask the audience for a song topic. They had a tiny band that would improvise the music and, of course, one of rhe regulars or guests improvised the lyrics. Wayne Brady was always impressive!!! On one of these song styling segments the style was something like "thrash metal" and the topic was "airline flight". My sister and I were on the floor, laughing. We still periodically replicate the demonic flight attendendent voice screeching "Do you want the meat or the fish? Hear my voice. Make a choice." What a great show!!!

[@dirtyburd71]

The look on Drew's face when someone says something really funny is priceless 😂

[@danieldickson8591]

The two guys with the "funny clothes" are Ryan Stiles (tall) and Colin Mochrie (shorter). Ryan was a regular cast member on Drew Carey's sitcom. Styles, Mochrie, and Wayne Brady had all appeared on the show's British predecessor. The American version launched in 1998 on ABC with Drew Carey as host, and ran until 2007. It was revived in 2013 on the CW, hosted by actress/comedian Aisha Tyler, and continued through 2023. No final word yet on a 2024 season.

[@nathanterry8205]

"Scenes from a hat" is fun, but they do so many different games. Another fun one is "sound effects"

[@johnathanjarrett63]

Drew was the first Host for the US. The woman that hosts now, is actually an actress. And one of the most well known roles she had, was on the show "Bones." She was the director of the Smithsonian.

[@tom7471]

I think this show still airs on CW and I think a lot of the same people do the improve. One of my favorite shows for many years!

[@Uriahjw]

My commodore computer had to use cassette tape to save and load programs. The 5-1/4 inch disks were out through the late 70s to mid 80s. Ryan Stiles plays a great character, " Herb," on the two and a half men series. He is so funny in that role as you would expect.

[@peterrosenberg9260]

Your natural love and joy for improv I absolutely love.

[@wendimooreart]

When you were talking about people being quick-witted I immediately thought of one of my favorite British comedians, Lee Mack. He starred in a sitcom called, “Not Going Out” and was a regular on the game show, “Would I Lie To You?” Lee Mack is the quickest witted comedian I’ve ever seen IN MY LIFE! He can talk about literally anything and be funny. Videos of those shows are available on KZbin. You really should check them out.

"Whose Line is it Anyway?" started as a British radio program in 1988, quickly came to British television later the same year. It was successful in Britain for more than a decade, to 1999. In 1998, it came to American television, hosted by Drew Carey; that version lasted through 2007. In 2013, it was revived with host Aisha Tyler, and has run since then. (There seems to be some debate in 2023 whether it would continue, so I'm not sure of its current status as of this moment.) There have also been many many international versions of this improvisational comedy format all around the world. Ryan Stiles is the tall guy. Colin Mochrie is the bald guy. They have been performing together on this show since the British version. Many of the American comedians were also on the earlier British version at one time or another.

[@jemal999]

There have been 3 'series' of Whose Line is it Anyway, each one lasting roughly a decade... it started in the UK in 1988 and ran till 1999. They also started a US version in 1998 (This is the one with Drew Carey hosting) which ran until 2007, and then in 2013 it got a revival with a new female host (Aisha Taylor) that's still going today. The two guys you were talking about are Collin Mockery and Ryan Stiles. They were the most frequent 2 guests in the UK series, and have been permanent parts of the show in both American series. (Counting all 30+ seasons it's been on the air, Ryan's been on 507 episodes, and Collin on 483... Wayne Brady takes Third place at 407 episodes (5 on the UK version, the rest in US). He was there for *most* of the 2 American series with the exceptions of parts of Seasons 1 & 8, and there were about a dozen regulars who would rotate in and out frequently for the 4th spot (or to fill in for a regular who missed an episode), plus once in a while they'd have a special guest star, like Richard Simmons, Robin Williams, David Hasselhoff, Jerry Springer, Whoopi Goldberg, etc.

[@russellhackworth5226]

A few years back they did a touring group called Drew Carey's Improv All Stars {you can find them on youtube}. And literally they would get an idea from the audience and on the fly come up with jokes. Kathy Kinney was with it in Vegas, the prompt from the audience was Automobile brands. She said "you can fit 4 people in my (volvo but instead ended the word with an "a")" The entire crew was done. One of the skits they made one of the guys take his shoes off, and blindfolded him. Then put mouse traps all around the stage and then had to act out a ballroom dance scene. {FWAP!}

[@richwelling3409]

This started as a British show hosted by Clive Anderson and then came to the States and was hosted by Drew Carrey. The show was cancelled in 2007. In 2015 it was revived and was hosted by Aisha Tyler. On almost every episode (maybe every one) the had Ryan Styles (the tall guy who had the wing-tipped shoes). Collin Mochrie (the bald guy that was on the same side as Ryan Styles) and Wayne Brady were also on most shows and they had various other people on also. You commented that actors can make the same line mean different things depending on how they say it. They had a game on the show that illustrated just that. It was called "Two Line Vocabulary." It was a scene with 3 people. Two of the people could only say two lines, but they could say them however they liked. The third guy could say anything. They had to act out a scene like that.

[@stevenhenthorne2]

Drew Carrey had a sit-com before Whose Line, with Colin Mochrie and Ryan (forget his last name) as co-stars. Drew went on to succeed Bob Barker as host on "The Price Is Right," which airs weekday mornings on CBS.

[@trolleyfan]

This host is Drew Carey, who did it when the show first came over from England for several years. The current (female) host is Aisha Tyler, who amongst other things, is the voice of Lana on "Archer."

[@wjadam024]

Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie are two of the most underrated comedians. The show made stars but they made the show.

[@Sawyers1129]

"This one needs to be revived." Hallelujah! Greatest show.

[@danielhollenbach539]

It was hosted by Drew Carey from 1998-2007. When they brought the show back in 2013 Aisha Tyler took over as host. The show is still on tv, I believe it's on the CW as well as some streaming services.

[@countzer0408]

It was originally a British TV show (1988-1997) and started with all British actors, comics, writers, etc… and then started adding Americans like Greg Proops (glasses and isn’t Drew), Ryan Stiles (Tall, lanky guy with wingtips), Colin Mochery (Bald Canadian guy, wears bright shirts), Chip Esten (not in these clips). I think the producer of the UK show brought the concept over to the USA and continued working on it there.
