I like it, I sometimes catch it on Comedy Central.

This is a very funny show! And the British censors are more liberal than their american counterparts so sometimes you get a real outrageous and hilarious moment that you would never see on the american version.

have you heard some of the hoedowns? Those alone made UK more fun(especially when it went into personal/Clive abuse)

I'm a fan. I wish some of the comediennes they had on the UK version would be on TV here in the US more. My favorite was Tony Slattery.

Josie was on in season 2 and I'll agree about Tony

I'm sorry I missed that, her songs are always great. Do you know if there are any plans for more of the UK cast to appear on the US version?

I agree; that's why I like the UK version, but the US version was just as good even with some censoring-especially when some acts got past the censors!

I like Tony Slattery (UK) as well as Colin Mochrie(US and UK)-they were hilarious!

Yes!! Clive Anderson was a great host. We had regulars like Greg, Brad, Colin and Ryan who went on to the US show. Steve Frost, Mike McShane, Josie Lawrence, Tony Slattery, etc. were all great. One of the semi-regulars was Jim Meskimen, who happens to be the real life son of Mrs. C. herself, Marion Ross!!

Whose Line UK is easily one of the funniest shows ever!

Hell! im currently staying up to tape It at 1:50am in the morning on comedy central.

it used to be on at 3:30pm but it got replaced with american dad

they started with series 4, and im halfway tru taping series 6 now. so i have 3 series.

Making Cheese, Vasectomy and Bungy Jumping Hoedows are the best.
