I love how Colin always gets to be the news anchor because he's so utterly quick. Able to come up with pun names plus pun or joke related news stories to start the whole skit off.
Colin's humor is super influential, to me he's up there with Norm McDonald for these strangely well thought out gags delivered in a way thats so natural and honest
@@Lolbama2012"Finally"? Colin is an improv comedian, these tongue twisters are just one part of his routine. Norm is a deadpan comedian who's great at improv and meta jokes... a "comedian's comedian". Nothing new there.
Absolutely not. Colin's style of comedy is totally different, Norm is often very conceptual and meta, you can't be so meta at improv. They're just quick-witted, Colin being one of the greatest improv comedians doing it. Norm is not as quick-witted because improv is not his goal but he's in a whole other level of comedy when he's improvising.
Drew loves Colin’s jokes. Never saw him give a standing ovation to anyone else like he did when Colin started the bit dancing disco. And the news crew one liners Drew laughed hard for those. I think Drew looked forward to hearing those each show.
Drew was, before anything, a fan of these guys... you see that he has the upmost respect and is aware he's not at the same level as them - he never steps on stage except at the end exactly because of this contrast. In his sitcom he often tried to insert people who he was also a fan, especially the musical guests.
Drew losing it with laughter was one of the reasons this show was great. Drews laughter is the only "laugh track" i will ever find acceptable if TV shows start using it
Colin's run on this show, even sharing the screen with some world class talents, puts him in the running for one of the funniest men ever to appear on television. The one time I met him I said 'I only have to look at you and I start laughing!' He didnt take it as well as I expected. While I grew up on the original version of the show, its one of the few times when the American version has actually managed to improve on its inspiration, largely down to adjusting the formula to be less about pure improvisation and more about regular segments the players could prep for. The british version was originally formulated as a showcase for John Sessions rather highbrow improv and could get more than a little 'luvvy' at times, but was still a fantastic and hilarious showw and well worth seeking out if you've only ever seen the US version. It also gets away with much more grownup jokes that would not be allowed on American tv. Wayne Brady and Greg Proops appeared on the UK show, and some of the funniest performers were Josie Lawrence, Tony Slattery (delivering filthy jokes with the smirk of a schoolboy who just broke wind in class), Paul Merton (so deadpan it would sometimes take a second to realise he finished the joke) and Stephen Frost. Oh and some guy called... Colin... err... Mockery?
Well, yeah, because he's not Jim Carrey or Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean lol Colin is an everyday guy that you'd think he could do your taxes, not being the best improv comedian in history.
@@euphoricbacon It's a reference to the musical "My Fair Lady", specifically the song "The Rain in Spain stays mainly in the Plain". ua-cam.com/video/uVmU3iANbgk/v-deo.htmlsi=6YbDQETafZElEIaV It's a very high brow (i.e. theatre kid) joke.
Only Hugh Can Prevent Florist Friars is still one of the funniest punchlines I have ever heard. Colin is up there with the all time greatest comedians imo
I'm pretty sure it was Wayne. Not counting the new seasons. I remember reading somewhere somebody actually added up all their points and wayne had the most.
As a young guy who never grew up on this, it appears to me that Drew is like the Sam Reich for millennials, and Colin appears to be Brennan Lee Mulligan
Y’all are so freaking brilliant how can you be like that? It makes me wonder if you actually have m Jonathan winters or Robin… what a bang in TNT that would be!
When Colin stops himself from say his toast was burnt when looking at Wayne. 😂😂
We were all thinking it 😂
@@l77scmaro2After Colin says "Oh" you can hear someone in the background just going "Nooooo!"
"just the way i like it!" was a brilliant way of saying it without saying it
19:51

I'm sure he had an absolute collection of them. There were occasional duplicates
“Lars Lars Pantsonfars” and “Knick Knack Paddy Whack” are my all-time favorites. 🤣
The bed cot Philly paper joke always slays me
Things you can say to your dog, but not your girlfriend
Colin: 'Come!'
I was laughing at "Horace Yourhodeinone"!
One of my favorites was “Frank Lee Dontgiveadamn”…
"Wait a minute....the cat!!!"
I'm riding a wave of Whose Line compilations that are thoughtfully done and I don't want it to stop.
2 days later and I hope you haven't stopped :D

Finally, somebody gets it. Some comedians are just absolutely amazing at delivery. They can take a bad joke and make it hilarious.
Canadians.

“The snakes don’t even have a pit to hiss in!” 🤣
Colin's humor was so subtle as a child. As an adult it some of the funniest clean humor. With perception of dirty humor under tones.
I love when they're so funny that they crack each other up
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I actually created a D&D campaign centered around "Only Hugh can prevent Florist Friars".
Ha! That takes imagination!
Sounds wonderful. Missing playing. Been a crap day, could use some meaningless laughter.
I salute you!
And made us PLAY IT, GERALD!
Please explain I need to use this

Paul Merton was such an underrated Whose Liner
"No luck then?"

One of the best shows ever ! Loved them all and Drew’s laugh ❤❤❤❤
In the beginning when they say "I wasn't listening for about the last third" I noticed: I hadn't either...
Yeah that’s about how I am when I’m told something is important
"The reindeer in Spain was hit mainly by the plane."
So freaking genius. A pun and a reference to a musical all in one.
That joke absolutely slayed me.
I don't get it
@@euphoricbacon It's a reference to the musical "My Fair Lady", specifically the song "The Rain in Spain stays mainly in the Plain". ua-cam.com/video/uVmU3iANbgk/v-deo.htmlsi=6YbDQETafZElEIaV It's a very high brow (i.e. theatre kid) joke.
“The reindeer in Spain was hit mainly by the plane” 😂 My God the man’s a genius 😂
I’ve seen that clip a thousand times and still don’t get the joke?
@@BV-jq2vg It's a play on the phrase 'the rain in spain falls mainly on the plain'
Only Hugh Can Prevent Florist Friars is still one of the funniest punchlines I have ever heard. Colin is up there with the all time greatest comedians imo
20:01 That is one of THE funniest things ever. Holy crap.
the awkward stare was great
31:42 another one
I think Colin was the all time points leader on this show... but it doesn't matter.
I dunno Ryan has to be DAMNED close lol they are both hilarious, even better when they are together. They feed off each other so well.
I'm pretty sure it was Wayne. Not counting the new seasons. I remember reading somewhere somebody actually added up all their points and wayne had the most.
@@nicolep.9212MatPat from Film Theory did a deep dive on this and he said Ryan had the most points.
@@nicolep.9212Ryan, Colin and Wayne were probably tied at #1... not coincidentally, the main cast members of the U.S. version of the show.
Ryan and Colin play off each other so well.
The 'why does no one look like me on friends' joke gets funnier when you consider someone who was in friends for a season hosted the revival
These producers really messed up when they didnt give Colin every cent hes worth. Whose Line will never be the same without him
Ummmm colin is still there
@jasonbotti4955 there will be no new seasons with Colin on it. Just Google it
Around the 20 min mark when Wayne (waffle) comes out of the toaster…. Hahaha
“meow”, “come”, “tapioca”
Colin is an absolute master at getting incredible amounts of comedy out of one word jokes
How Collin says the funniest phrases and keeps such a straight face makes it even funnier. 😂 😂
The way Colin looked at his waffle, aww heck I was in tears 🤣🤣🤣
Even Wane was struggling not to burst into laughter at that point!
Colin, the master of Dad jokes.
Jeff's little smirk at 12:21 at Colin's bad joke is just wonderful.
Colin is unmatched
Hilarious and so quick
"Welcome to the 6:00 news! I am your anchor, Horace Yourhodeinone!"
Colin even has Ryan cracking up! That is how funny he is!
The cut every time Jeanine starts to speak is unintentionally hilarious.
unintentional you say...
@@chattycathydoll
To shreds you say...
Ryan and Colin are the best
Thor Buttockth is incredible. A Bush in the band in worth two in The Birds. Long live Colin.
I still have Colin’s whole Knick knack patty whack setup memorized
dude this make me feel so old omg
Colin is my favourite.
The audience clapping after Colin’s clapping tutorial is gold
2 of the greatest comedians since Laurel & Hardy and the latter are my idols, these 2 are an inch close in comparison
He did the whale joke twice. Naughty naughty.
8.02 in. Woman behind Drew throws her head back laughing. Brilliant.
8:02 I Fixed it for ya!
"Just the way I like it!"
Knick knack patty whack, is some genius shit.
Knick Knack Paddy Wack, will forever be top 5 best moments in comedy history
Could you imagine being one of the other improv comics trying to outdo Colin? IMPOSSIBLE!!!
Ryan: Hey, is that a tear? Colin: It is now. 😆
i thought i'd seen all the best colin moments by now, but oh my god the were-hamster at 23:18 genuinely made me cry-laugh
How I miss this show!
Colin Mochrie: funniest man on the planet.
*wiggles finger*
"Come"
🤣🤣🤣
I love the guy going “NOO” at 20:01 😂
Comedy Central should hire him as a reporter for "The Daily Show"
That would be hilarious! Hahaha
OMG YES!
😂 I can't stop laughing it's so so so funny 😂
Those two were quite the pair:)
I swear colin and ryan were the best
He's the king of on the spot puns.
Colin is so funny ! ❤🤓🙋♂️👍❤
31:42 colin never disappoints with openers
Fantastic word play and phrasing 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
It took surgeons 3 hours to remove his head from his ass! burst out laughing!! so much gold here!
‘Randy Always’ got me
Colin always knew how to steal the show
They're just the best ever. Wish they could do it again.❤❤❤❤❤
Am I losing my mind or was there scenes that was repeated in this video?
"Minnie Pausel" 😂😂😂
20:00 That "NO" from the audience!
I’m here because, “we’re watching animal porn!” popped into my head randomly 😂😂 hope it’s in here
My favorite anchor name was Pierre because my bladders empty
i got no idea how he does these with a straight face
"I wasn't listening to about the last third." 😂
41:34 When your trying to hold back laughter during class
51:14 "Jello Biafra - I Blow Minds for a Living"
The hardest job is being straight man to Colin.
20:00
I feel like Colin wanted to go "Oh. Mine's burned" and then stopped himself just in time.
That show was the best thing I have ever ever seen for improv. both of those two men are absolutely exceptional, but Wayne Brady!!!!!!
This is the perfect cure for a bad day
I'm shocked this video is under an hour.
Love from a CollegeHumor and Vaush fan!
Woodrow - but don't have a paddle - he's awesome

Best of Colin Mochrie, 52 minutes. That's all?
28:43 😂
The drunk mother hoedown lives rent free in my head 😂
If you ever see a Lawyer in Space Station 14 named LarsLars Pantsonfars, just know that its me
"Best of Colin" dang didn't know the whole show was only 51 minutes long
21:30😂😂😂
Thumbnail: Who're you calling pinhead?
19:49 Aww...🤣
My favorite is the "Reindeer in Spain was Hit Mainly by the Plane"!😂
Y’all are so freaking brilliant how can you be like that? It makes me wonder if you actually have m Jonathan winters or Robin… what a bang in TNT that would be!
I don't think Mr. Winters was on this but Robin Williams certainly was. Look it up.
why add same after another?
It’s a compilation
As of now, I'm rash free
49:15 -- and a Big Hero 6 character was born!
Saying that Colin Mochrie owned "Weird Newscasters" is as redundant as saying lasagna is delicious.
Why is no other show funny like this? SNL is never funny anymore. But this dinky little show hits it out of the park almost every time!
Where is the "we're Watching Animal Porn" bit?
The best part was the Colin's drunk other hoedown.
0:00-51:40!
Colin's humor is worth suffering the horrid video quality.
It's crazy that this quality was, back then, considered HQ.. lmfao
Barely
*LOLs in 240p*
😂😂😂😂 norm said I ain’t eating that Shit wtf
I am a fucking five year old lmfao. 35:11
