Anybody else a fan of this show?

I enjoyed the original British version much more than it's American counterpart, but the Drew Carey construct is still more entertaining than Sudenly Susan! Ryan Styles is a god of impromptu comedy!

I enjoy both versions of the show. But I do think that there is a problem with the American version. The problem is that the show features 4 performers, not counting Drew, and 3 of them are regulars. It's not that I don't like watching Ryan, Colin, and Wayne. It's that with only one different performer every week, most of the shows feel the same. Though that may be a result of not giving the guest performers who aren't Greg Proops anything to do.

On the original Whose Line, they always had at least 2 different performers on every show, giving it a different chemistry. They also utilized all the performers talents. Plus, they could get away with a whole lot more than they can on the Disney network on Thursday nights at 8pm.

(sorry to dig up a fossil topic but I'm bored)

I've seen the british version. I like the overall comedy better. on it.

But, I do like the set on the american version....

Overall, they're both pretty good, (just keep me away from the set on the British version)
