Best of “Whose Line is it Anyway?” On DVD in June

It's very vaguely game show enough for me to post about it here, at least while clips of a new British game show are uploading.  Another Whose Line is it Anyway? DVD is coming out in June, after a long delay.  The "Best Of" collection will feature a much more impressive lineup than the last few DVDs. Show No. 308 "Ryan smashing head" (First Aired: Thursday June 14, 2001)  Show No. 401 "good show with Wayne as Singing Bass and kissing Colin" (First Aired: Thursday September 6, 2001) Show No. 413 Too Hot For Whose Line (First Aired: Wednesday October 3, 2001) Show No. 512 "with Florence Henderson" (First Aired: Monday September 30, 2002) Show No. 521 "with Richard Simmons" (First Aired: Friday June 20, 2003) Show No. 610 "with Kat

A “Whose Line is it Anyway?” Christmas

I'm sick and tired of hearing anything about Price is Right, which will be on our countdown and I'll have to relive it, but regardless.  Let's move to another Drew Carey show where obsessive fans can't memorize prizes.  It's Whose Line is it Anyway?.  Sadly the next DVD won't be coming out for a few months, but Youtube has a ton of Whose Line clips to enjoy.  Here's the Christmas episode, one of the funnier episodes.  You can catch Whose Line is it Anyway? most weekdays (except this week) at midnight on ABC Family.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 1

And it's finally here.  I'm done teasing you.  It's number one on our countdown of Whose Line is it Anyway? moments.  First, we would like to say that we got word that new Whose Line DVDs will be coming out in 2009 and we got confirmation we may be able to do a giveaway of it, so be on the lookout.  But now, it's the moment I have a feeling some of you guessed, by reading the comments.  We hope you enjoyed.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 2

Only two more to go.  Number two is very appropriate. We've been over how Colin Mochrie was a master of breaking down the show from his hysterical insane remarks and humor. Apparently the video clip editor noticed and made a very special game of Newsflash.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 3

And coming in at number three we have a moment that was not remotely provoked by Colin Mochrie!  It's time for Ryan Stiles to shine this time.  Or bleed I suppose, as is evident in this game of Party Quirks, which features Ryan as Carol Channing whose head keeps getting stuck to things.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 4

Almost done with the clipdown!  Moment number four comes from a game of Greatest Hits.  It started as a showcase for the singers like Wayne Brady, but by a few seasons more attention went to the comedy bits of Colin Mochrie and Ryan Stiles, which is the best comedy duo of at least this decade, if not the '90s as well.  It became sort of a challenge for Colin to get Ryan to crack up and break down into laughter.  Colin really couldn't top what he did in this clip. Ryan had a share of memorable moments in this one too. His comment about the Osmond Brothers was priceless.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 5

Down to the top five moments.  Here is the game Sound Effects.  It originally had Ryan doing sound effects for Colin.  However, the game really become a classic once they had audience members doing the effects for both Ryan and Colin.  Because usually they sucked.  Some people didn't even bother.  However, these two ladies did and it made for one of the most entertaining games ever on Whose Line.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 6

Coming in at number six in our countdown is the last Irish Drinking Song moment but it's our favorite.  Again, Colin Mochrie is known for the bizarre endings which barely make sense.  And Colin definitely had the last laugh with this, well, extremely bizarre closing to the Christmas Tree Irish Drinking Song where he proves you don't need to rhyme in a musical game to win.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 7

And we're up to number seven with, yet again, an Irish Drinking Song moment from Colin Mochrie. Although it really started because Drew screwed up early in the song. Definitely in my top two or three favorite Irish Drinking songs.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 8

Continuing on our discussion that Colin Mochrie seems to have a good number of Whose Line is it Anyway's top 13 moments, here's number eight on our list.  Colin's known for not being a good singer or dancer on the show.  He just acts insane and creates comedy gold.  However, when he actually showed that he can dance shockingly well, it brought out probably one of the best Greatest Hits moments.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 9

When the voters and I were making this countdown, we realized a lot of the moments involved Colin Mochrie.  He just was amazing at thinking of something which made absolutely no sense at all, throwing everyone off, and bending the show to his style.  And the game which let him do this more than any was Irish Drinking Song.  Enjoy number nine, which is an irish drinking song about graduation, where even Colin admits they should never let him go last.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 10

And here comes number 10.  When Whose Line is it Anyway first started they basically cut out anything that wasn't directly game and show related.  However, as the show went on they were a lot looser with it and left in a lot of bloopers.  It's this practice which brings our next moment.  Again, it's audience related.  In a game of Title Sequence, the audience had to name two people who would be unlikely roommates.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 11

Sorry we didn't get one of these out yesterday.  I had major car problems so I couldn't get to my office to write.  Coming in at number 11 is a game which basically became Colin Mochrie's: Newsflash.  Basically, Colin would stand in front of a green screen, not knowing what video is playing behind him, and two others acting as news anchors would try to drop hints as to what the activity is.  In this clip, we see some skateboarding to begin, but the entire clip is like a wind up monkey.  It starts out fine but ends up hysterical.  I think this clip is really memorable because it's not even that funny because of the actors; it's funny because of the video and audience.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway” Moments: Number 12

Continuing our clip-down of the best Whose Line is it Anyway? moments, we move to number 12.  If you're a regular viewer, you may notice the sarcasm that comes from host Drew Carey's voice when he says it's time for, "Everyone's favorite game, Hoedown!"  Ryan Stiles probably hates the game more than anyone else and definitely lets it show as he has a total meltdown.  And of course total meltdowns = comedy gold on the show.  Take a look with the EDIT: BODY ODOR* Hoedown. Fixed which Hoedown it is. I'm apparently drunk.

Top 13 “Whose Line is it Anyway?” Moments: Number 13

For the next two weeks we're going to have a daily video clip-down of our favorite Whose Line is it Anyway? moments.  Is it a game show?  Barely.  Maybe one percent.  But that's good enough for me.  Especially because it's one of the funniest and most creative shows to come out in a while.  Not only that, the show just celebrated being on the air in the US for 10 years, and it's the 20th year it's been around internationally.  That's worth something, especially since "new" episodes just stopped a year or so ago.  We'll start with moment 13.  The game "Sound Effects" originally had Colin Mochrie doing a scene while Ryan Stiles made the effects.  However, the game hit its stride once they added unsuspecting audience members to it.  Check out
