The thing I like about Drew is that even when he's joking about an audience member it feels genuine and not from a spiteful or malicious place. The way he addresses Betty at the end is super nice.
Because it was the first line. Had it been the third line, then we are basically guaranteed to get “Drew Carey” every time. Still, I’d imagine Drew would be pretty anxious during this, probably thinking, “shit, this early?”
I wasnt aware they filmed like this, now the multi season crossovers make more sense. I remember Captain Hair getting referenced once or twice in an episode that DIDN'T have the Captain Hair skit
@@tyler20647brad Multiple episodes were taken from the filming of one long performance. I think in an interview Colin said they would film 20-30 games a night, and only 7 were used per episode. Seasons were usually filmed over a couple of weekends.
Wayne: “I couldn’t possibly have anymore water.” Drew: “In that case you don’t need any points. 1,000 points to Colin and Ryan.” Wayne and Brad: *shocked Pikachu*
This show reminds me of a time when we had cable in our house and I would try to find out exactly when my shows were scheduled so I could get my homework done in time to watch them. Now I just find it all online whenever I want. Convenient but not as nostalgic.
Funny thing is, Drew is probably the least funny and least quick witted out of all 3 hosts but he's still the best of them all. I think it suits the show more, if the host is a bit slower comedic wise than the participants. If the host can fire back and give as good as, or better back than they get, why the hell are they hosting and not participating then? Much better if the host can be an easy target and add to the comedy but not distract from the presence of the comedians by being too funny or witty.
I agree. The best part of Drew's hosting was how well they could poke at each other unreservedly. They interacted like buddies. Aisha is still trying, but not there to the point she can do this yet (on air).
Well i don't know if they'd have known back when this was filmed but Colin's daughter is transgender, so i mean thank god they were always cool about it
@@lj-wp3sf there was that article from the '40s (I think it was around then) where a soldier transitioned from male to female and the newspaper described her as a "bombshell", so if anything we've just gotten less cool about trans people in the following years.
12Medbe Network is probably one of the reasons WLIIA came back with new seasons. I remember watching all of these old clips on your channel years ago. So thanks.
Wow you really need to be a fan to point out the inside jokes and how it originated.. when RUclips came out this was the only show I would binge watch and would keep me happy for years. Back in England.
Funny that 7:45 & 8:30 appear to be the exact same shot, only at different angles. Seems like they just played the clip totally out of context the first time it aired. Great video again 12Medbe!
12Medbe I've been watching your stuff for what seems forever, love your videos, love that you are able to find all these running gags and inside jokes. Thank you so much for collecting these! I really appreciate what you do.
Omg I never got the exercise joke!! It's crazy that I watched all of these shows in like the early to mid-2000s and there's so many gags that were running through episodes that I just now am realizing. Like the hoedown where he says that the director should sprout a mustache and move to germany. The fucking Hitler running gag was amazing. And it made the hoedown that was already funny even better. Damn AND the can't stop doing this line in hoedown too. Shit haha
why do they split up the recordings like this? some of the references to inside jokes are being made in seasons earlier than the season the original joke is being made. it makes all of the jokes irrelevant to people watching it on cable. That doesn't make sense lol
They used to film for like 10-12 hours a day on weekends and get a full season in about 4 days. That's why they are always wearing the same clothes. Also from what I have heard the last few seasons had a lot of extra stuff from past seasons
This is so cool! Is there a site where you can see which episodes were recorded at the same taping or did you watch all seasons searching for the same outfits they wore?
I figured they filmed multiple episodes during the same session, but never realized that they would hold on to some episodes for a few seasons before airing them. Wonder why they did that.
well it happened 8 years ago and I guess they were playing some sort of game which would normally lead to a subject off as it were (I think you may know what it is, Whose Line has never done this) well by the time they got to a questions game, one of the rules was no grass skirts, and well one of them mentioned it in a question, so I had to buzz them, they told me they asked a question and I said "You broke the no grass skirt rule" the audience erupted with laughter
I did too, at a convention, but sadly that running joke is "Wabutan having to puke while on stage". Grape Mtn Dew Kickstart is a hell of a drug. EVERY. SINGLE. YEAR.
have you ever seen one of those improve shows where they would ask certain things and you shouted out what you saw in the scene and then they write it down and they have a showdown of what story gets finished?
I don't know how many people realize this, but when they did a taping, they filmed a hand full of openers, a BOATLOAD of skits, and then a hand full of closers. After that it's as simple as editing one taping into 5-6 episodes. That's why jokes like that carry over, as well as outfits and audience members. A perfect example is the episode where Ryan pulls out the line, "if we do another hoedown / I'll slut my f-ing wrists." They had filmed a dozen of them throughout the taping that day.
I never thought of it this way but it makes sense that they wouldn't get together to film only three or four skits for one episode at a time, I just figured they would do like outfit changes or whatever in between to make it look like they hadn't done that
The thing I like about Drew is that even when he's joking about an audience member it feels genuine and not from a spiteful or malicious place. The way he addresses Betty at the end is super nice.
Audience gave them so many memorable moments and im sure some people still remember fondly when they got to come on stage
Why is there 666 likes?...I'm about to change that 😼 👍

Technically he was drinking coffee this time...

Fluff your Garfield was and will always be my favorite episode
just the look on Colins face after he said it, was just "ok, I don't know why I just said that, makes no sense lol"
Kinda have an affinity for the "Captain Hair" episode myself.
Mine is the"meow" episode
Hard to top the Richard Simmons or Robin Williams episodes.
My favorite was the one with Richard Simmons, He sure knows how to play to the audience he knew exactly what to do to make each scene even funnier.
This was the only time where Ryan said “scary” in a hoedown and didn’t rhyme it with “Drew Carey.”
I was expecting a Drew Carey and then it just never happened!
Because it was the first line. Had it been the third line, then we are basically guaranteed to get “Drew Carey” every time. Still, I’d imagine Drew would be pretty anxious during this, probably thinking, “shit, this early?”
I’m your 1000th like lol congrats
Being the audience member that starts a running gag has to be an amazing feeling.

The best running gag was Collin's "meow" in an episode that climaxed at the breakdown of an Irish drinking song.
I wasnt aware they filmed like this, now the multi season crossovers make more sense. I remember Captain Hair getting referenced once or twice in an episode that DIDN'T have the Captain Hair skit
I like how in the last clip Ryan is like "fuck it" and begins acting like an orangutan
It also explains why they are all wear the same outfits in multiple episodes.
Well if I recall only like 4-5 seasons were filmed seperately. After that they had so much extra footage they produced another 2 seasons out of it.
Wait how do they film what did I miss ?

How's about another 1000 points for Betty and Bill? :D

Drew the boss.
"I couldn't possibly have anymore points!"
Yes, thank you we watched the same video.

Aisha is an attention hog drew was much better.
Clive was the best of the three, he could give it and take it and he was very quick witted. The banter between greg and him was the best.
I love when Drew gives out points to audience members.
That joke about "I wish you would call me Jill instead of Bill" aged *shockingly* well

*daughter but yeah!! even in old episodes they're surprisingly accepting!!
That's sad. Another person destroying themselves.

playgroundchooser it's Greg Proops. He reminds me of one of the Reduced Shakespeare Company's actors in The Complete Works of William Shakespeare.
Yea it's gotta be greg proops
They all had their own unique things they brought to the show. I personally liked chip estan(spelling?) The best
Except when Chip came and sang with Wayne. That was always awesome.
This video has the greatest thumbnail of all time.
You’re like a “Whose Line...” super sleuth.
That is really weird, that you can go to one taping of the show and not see the episode until 3 seasons later.
2:47 and that's why on the CW show they don't have pitchers of water.
Yeah I miss the opportunities for running gags.
Brad's face at 2:48 is amazing; he's so sheepish.
“Winner of 1000 point on Who’s Line is it Anyways” would be something I’d put on a resume
Wow you really need to be a fan to point out the inside jokes and how it originated.. when RUclips came out this was the only show I would binge watch and would keep me happy for years. Back in England.

Good to see you back, BTW, 12Medbe.

Awesome work, seriously going back and catching all this and taking note of it must have been alot of fun(work).

“I would’ve called you jill if only you’d said something earlier.” Thats so sweet knowing his child is trans.
"Hello i'm drew carey, lord or the onion rings." That's just amazing lmao
Going to the top shelf with ur adjectives, eh?
Ah yes I love inside jokes. I hope to be a part of one someday.
8:31 Ryan’s weird arm movement is unsettling to me
Collin said trans rights back then too lol
"I would have called you Jill"
Props for putting this together!!!
Some of these are seasons apart! That's very interesting, I had no idea that's how they made this show!
