I hope Chip comes back as much as many hate him. He was so important. After finishing the game, when listening to Dear My Friend, many cried. I hope him comes back and the bracelet comes back too... What do you think about running up the clock tower in Spagonia instead of platforming if that is how the Simpsons advertisment shows it?

I haven't seen a thread for these shows. I figure that they deserve the same thread since they're all pretty much the same show, more or less. For those who don't know, well, I'll let the TV tropes description explain.... _________________________________ "It's a successful Improv slash Sketch Comedy slash Panel Show that originated on British radio before moving to Channel 4 for a ten-year run. Clive Anderson hosted the show, in which four improvisational comics took suggestions from the audience to act out hilarious unscripted scenes. The performers could change radically with each episodes and because of the nature of the show, they could cobble together upwards of four episodes worth of material from one filming session. An American version was created for ABC with Drew Carey as host that ran five seasons (though they filmed so much material that three more seasons were created after filming stopped). Because of the wider broadcasting of American television this show is better known than the British original. Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie were regular performers on the British version (who between them gave us much Ho Yay) and on this version they appeared in every episode. Ryan and Drew (who worked together on The Drew Carey Show) also provided the show with an ample supply of Foe Yay. From the second season onwards, Wayne Brady was added to the regular line-up, which essentially launched hiscareer. The fourth player varied, the most common performers being Brad Sherwood, Greg Proops, Kathy Greenwood or Chip Esten. The shift from mostly rotating players to mostly regulars with an occasional guest - which began in the later British series and became the standard for the American version - made the show's format less 'experimental' and more formulaic, yet at the same time led to the players being more familiar with each others' foibles and led to richer humour. One example of how this changed the show is that in early series the quirks in Party Quirks, the personas in Let's Make a Date and so on were very simple and one-dimensional (e.g. "a sperm"), while in later British series and especially the American version they became comically complex and specific (e.g. "horse whisperer calming and mounting the others who he thinks are wild stallions"), as the players knew each other well enough to discern more details in their performances. Very much subject to a Broken Base, although the most you'll see these days are a few remarks about how they like or dislike which version or which host. Despite this, many people on both sides find the two shows hilarious. A new improv show featuring the cast and crew of Whose Line Is It Anyway (minus Wayne Brady, but with Brady's Let's Make A Deal sidekick Jonathan Mangum),Drew Carey's Improv-a-Ganza, premiered in Spring 2011 on Game Show Network." _______________________________________________________ This thread is to pretty much discuss and post videos about these three great shows. Also, Drew Carey's Improv-a-Ganza is in danger of cancellation due to low ratings. You can help to save it by signing the petition at http://www.change.or...-improv-a-ganza .
