I'm sure a lot of you have watched or at least heard of one of the whose line is it anyways. Drew Carrey's version of whose line is it anyway aired for seven seasons and featured mainly Ryan stiles, Colin Mochrie, and Wayne Brady, with regular guest stars being Brad Sherwood, Chip Esten, and Greg Proops.
After that show left the air, Drew Carrey created another show called the Green Screen Show, which featured most of the Whose line vets and some new faces.
That sadly didn't last very long. Well he has a new improv show now (although I think it will be only a set number of episodes since they only did so many live shows.)
Either way it's great so far. Here's an Ad for it.

it's on the Game show network, and roughly only twenty minutes long per episode.
One of the problems I had with whose line (and I only noticed this when i began watching green screen show) is that whose line had so many rules, and contractual obligations that it hindered the performers.
On Green screen show they had much more freedom, and it appeared that they had much more fun, plus you got to see a few of the people that guest starred on whose line actually performing together.

it seems they have a lot of fun on this new show too, because again they arent bound by so many rules. In an interview I think it was Ryan Stiles that stated, that him and Colin always had to do skits together, simply because they had worked together longer. Which I don't think is right for improv because you need change to get fresh ideas.
So have any of you seen Improvaganza yet?
