Nor would I want to. I just like watching them do stupid things. It's funny.

A few caveats: We are restricting ourselves to the games played on the American version of the show during its first run. That means both the U. Additionally, the game needed to be played at least three times to merit inclusion, so no one-offs or failed experiments, and therefore, nothing that bombed.
That still leaves us with 49 games, which speaks to the crazy scope of Whose Line during its original run. Enjoy the list, and remember that even as the world fills up with poison, you will always have Colin Mochrie pretending to be a dinosaur. I know that Whose Line ended every nearly episode with it, and because of that the game elevated into semi-hallowed ground in the way that so many overrated traditions became unavoidable facts of life. Its only saving grace? Above, Colin is the Queen of England.
Remove one of these elements and this game gets a lot better. But it usually fell flat in practice. Because of that, all of these sketches look a little dated in retrospect. Give credit to Ryan Stiles though: He always gave it his all. In this case, an Academy Awards lectern. Phil—esque liaison. Honestly though, the average afternoon of bad daytime TV is funnier than made-up daytime TV.
So this game was doomed from the start. The basic premise had two players act out a totally conventional improv scene, while the other two watched from the side of the stage with noise-canceling headphones on.
Afterwards, those players subbed in and attempted to reenact the scene without hearing any of the dialogue. As usual, Wayne Brady did the heavy lifting from behind the bar, guiding the other players into the uncharted musical territory that only he was ever truly fluent in. It might be a little more streamlined, but personally, I prefer the chaos of the predecessor. The performers needed to start every sentence they said with the subsequent letter of the alphabet, which led to more flubs and disasters than pretty much every other game on this list.
Drew Carey seemed to be in these sketches constantly, which is funny, because he was always terrible at them. The doofy employee-training video is one of the most frequently satirized forms of media in comedy. Moviefone voice. The main takeaway from this game was that Colin Mochrie might secretly be one of the greatest directors of all time. In which the Whose Line cast would change a sketch into a Western, romance, or thriller at the drop of a hat.
Meaning, if you picked up the binoculars, you turn into Liberace. Remember when Rain Man and Braveheart were relevant improv-show pulls? Drew Carey introduced some bad, public-access footage on a TV screen and let the players pipe in their own voices over the garbage.
Greg Proops is a fantastic fake commentator. Proops did all the heavy lifting, though. No Whose Line performer was more underrated. The cast acted out a scene, and at a specific pivotal moment they opened an envelope containing a random bit of dialogue scribbled down by an audience member, which they then had to improvise around.
Improv, as a genre, struggles with beginnings and endings, and it clearly helped the players have an apogee they were working toward. Everyone in the scene could only talk in questions, and if they faltered, Carey buzzes them into oblivion. Do you like to see the usually surefire Whose Line cast freeze up? Does it make you feel more calm in your own shortcomings? Yeah, same. Does being limited to two lines in an improv bit make the performance easier or harder? Real talk: There are few things funnier than Colin Mochrie turning toward the camera and delivering a dead-serious soliloquy.
Everyone is constantly jockeying for position in order to not break the rules. No game on the show created more chaos. The duo were great sharing the stage, but their chemistry, interplay, and mischievousness was still apparent when one of them was filling in the silence from the back.
