I'm so sorry that you're wrong :(
Rose-tinted glasses, I see.
Is it even worth my effort to find a bunch of clips of Drew making a joke and the audience not laughing?

The times he screws up themselves are rather funny because then people make fun of Drew for it... but the humor he attempts to contribute from behind the desk isn't nearly as good as the stage stuff.

There's tons of episodes where the comedians have made jokes and got no laughs at all. Greg Proops (who's really good) even did one.

The difference being Drew's are far more common.

Might have something to do with him always being on the show opposed to some episodes...

Thank god!

But!

They'll have to keep the old formula, and have the original cast with one guest. It'd be awesome if it was exactly like the old one. But I can see them doing something and changing it and it'll fuck it all up.

The Green Screen show is pretty funny too.
I knooooooow right? They pretty much had the perfect set up.

I dunno if drew will be the host or not though. Since someone earlier said something about him having a different show right now? (I haven't heard anything about that)

Either they should get Collin to be the announcer/presenter/judge/whatever while on stage or just leave that out. Or get someone of equal funny as Drew.

I actually wouldn't mind Jeff Davis or Greg Proops being host. Those two are insanely funny. Jeff especially.

Oh that's right, I forgot GBAtemp's number 1 rule:

"You must hate anything that becomes popular, even if it's good, you must say it sucks."

hey guess what people have different tastes

No... not Aisha Tyler :( I think she's cute and all and I like her on Archer but did anyone see her during the sony (or xbox) gaming event I think last year? yeah she's not exactly a comedian.

It was Ubisoft and arguably I wouldn't blame it on her. It was probably written for her and she was on a script, plus since it is a publicly broadcast event, she couldn't curse or anything.

The same issue hit shit like the cringeworthy VGAs. Neil Patrick Harris hosted one time and he was just horribly written for and it was just cringe.

She's probably much better on her own, doing improv with no skit.

Its been years since I've seen Whose Line but I loved it when I was younger and I'm guessing the humor still holds up. I also enjoyed the Green Screen Show from the short bit I saw and Improv-a-Ganza wasn't bad either.

That's where I've seen her.

But yeah, hopefully they don't censor Whose Line as much as they used to, let some adult jokes in there. The original fans are are older now. Honestly she isn't THAT bad, she's tolerable. As good as Drew? Absolutely not, but still. I do have to say though, the first time I see something wrong, I'm emailing the team to tell them my opinions. They can't stray too far away from the original, otherwise it's not going to be the same.

On a separate note: Green Screen is pretty funny. I would watch that if it came on a good channel and kept going.

Best show ever, I just hope they don't go to gsn since the damn cable idiots decided to remove that channel from the cable packages and have the nerve to trying to charge for that channel, not from whos line but it was funny as hell...
