Wayne Brady?? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anybody know if Wayne Brady is working on something? Now that Who's Line is apparently cancelled, I think he should do his variety show again. It was entertaining and he's way too talented to not be doing anything. Just wondering if anybody can help me out here. What do you think?

I think he should get into something else...maybe not his variety show, though, because it needs a lot of work.

He truly is a one man variety show.He can sing,dance,act,do improv,impressions.they only problem is trying to find talent to put around him that is going to perform at his level.That is Why Carol Burnett and Dean Martin Was successful they had those around them that made everyone funnier and that makes for a great show.Carol Had my Dad,and vicki,tim,lyle Dean had Charles nelson Reilly,Charlie Callas,Dom Deluise and many others.The star is as only successful as the people they surround themselves with.W.Needs the same energy and talent around him.Versatility is hard to find few can do what he does ,Nathan lane and Jason Alexander are as skilled in those areas as Wayne and he can do impressions as well.If the Network doesn't give him a show but puts on crap like A,idol then the networks really don't know what taste is.W.Might just be the most talented person who hasn't gotten his due accolades and success it should come soon.

Wayne Brady has a syndicated (and self-titled) daytime talk show.

At the Daytime Emmys, which Wayne hosted, he won for best talk show and best host. This was against Dr. Phil, who has the highest rated new talk show and who was the favorite for both awards. Hopefully, more people like me will get to see Wayne's show when a station finally picks it up this fall.

Whose Line isn't cancelled. It's contract with ABC goes until the end of next season. So it's got another year before the axe drops.
