That is very true. Similar to a situation where someone accuses you of lying because you didn't tell them something. It's not lying if you never said anything, you just left out some information.
The Drew Carey show was already running before Drew Carey started hosting Whose line. The chronology is like this: (1) Ryan and Colin work together at improv clubs. (2) Whose Line producers bring Ryan to Whose Line UK, and Colin a bit later. Ryan is splitting his time between L.A. and London. (3) The Drew Carey Show starts in the US. Ryan lands the job to play Lewis. (4) Drew becomes host of Whose Line US. (5) Drew brings other Whose Line people to his show for occasional guest roles.
Colin actually auditioned for Whose Line UK and failed, he then auditioned again and got 1 episode but wasn't asked back and then Ryan begged the producers to give Colin another chance as he knew how good Colin was after working with him before and Colin was then cast on an episode with Ryan and they clicked and Colin's remained with the show ever since. Also, Drew was the one who got ABC to buy the rights to Whose Line; he was the driving force behind getting the US version made.
+Lu Bu's Pursuer This was the Drew Carry Show. It was a special (Ryan was always on it) I forget what it was called but it was recorded live and Brad would lead a few improv games. Colin was on one or two other episodes as Eugenie but I think the live special was in season 4 or 6. It was really funny.
Hell yea. Why do you think the show only got better with the inclusion of these characters. The inclusion of Ferguson was just gold, but along with Styles, Osewald, Mimi and so on. Man, I love this show. Funny as all hell.
@@killwalker The guy who played Scotty on the original Star Trek was Canadian. His ancestors came from Scotland, but he'd probably never even met somebody who lived there before he got the role. It's up there with Dick Van Dyke's cockney accent from Mary Poppins.
@@bobdole4916 i just watched an interview with James Doohan. He's Canadian Irish, and can do any accent he hears (according to him) and his Scotty accent is based on the Aberdeen Scotland area dialect of Scottish. But as he talks in his normal voice, its clear his Irish parent had an influence on his natural accent. Idk how to link the video. I just typed "James Doohan Interview" and its the first or second vid to pop up. He's wearing a suit coat with a badge or emblem of some kind. Time Stamp of the vid is "7 Years Ago" but its clearly a 90's video.
@@bobdole4916 oh. well i was just pointing out that both you and I thought he was Scottish by blood, but turns out he's Irish. Besides, it's not like all Scottish people sound the same, or ppl in the UK, Canada, etc. No 1 Scottish accent is universal to the island. Im sure some Scots sound kinda like Scotty. edit: those "insulted" Scotsman....must have really thin skin to get upset that a non scottish person doesnt do a perfect accent. Scottish Snowflakes from the 60's n 70's?
I really wish this show was still on the air. It was soooo fucking funny. All of these comments being surprised that Craig Ferguson was on this show is kind of shocking. How does no one remember this show?!
When Craig and Drew (on the Price is Right) switched hosting a few years back and I found out they'd already done a show together, I immediately went back and binged it all! Then I remembered I had already seen much of the show, just forgotten it because it's a bit old now, but damn is it funny! Craig Ferguson, half the Whose Line cast, and Diedrich Bader, it's one of the best sitcoms ever!
I remember the show, I just didn't know who Craig Ferguson was until quite a number of years later. Hell I didn't even know who Colin Mochrie was at the time either, that waited until I finally saw whose line what must have been at least a couple of years after this show ended.
I remember this show existed, and I remember watching it quite a few times, but it's so weird that I barely remember anything about it. I remember the theme song, of course. But I don't remember much of what it actually was.
I used to watch the Drew Carey Show long time ago, and after watching this, I was surprised to see all WLIIA gang in this show, I want to start watching that Drew Carey show again!!!
Yeah. I can hear it every now and then. "Stop your yammering" and "ice cream for breakfast" is when it's at its most obvious, but there's still a Scottish twang in his vowels now and then.
'You know, I once ran over someone and kept on going.' 'No no no, you don't let obstacles get in your way!' one of my new favourite Drew Carey Show lines!
I'm in the process of doing montages of Brad, Wayne, and parts with the other improvisers. I'll only include a bit of Ryan doing the improv bits, seeing as how Ryan's in every episode of the show :)
I don't care that combining Drew Carey Show and Whose Line Is It Anyway seems weird or doesn't make sense, I love it and it's even more funnier that wayXD
I watched this show with my mom sometimes when I was a little kid (was born in 95). I started watching craig's show a couple of years ago, and just found out that he was actually in this show. I can't believe it, I don't know why I don't remember his character. I don't remember that much about this show but still, it's freaking Craig Ferguson. He's my favorite comedian now. I still can't believe it haha
I love how insane this show could be. Shame it's impossible to stream it anywhere, I loved the aesthetic of this show. Just as funny as it was back then.
TheOrgano They did 2 or 3 episodes of The Drew Carey Show live. In those live episodes they incorporated a couple Whose Line games and Brad acted as the host. Other Whose Line cast members made appearances on the live Drew shows, such as Chip Esten, Wayne Brady and Greg Proops. Laura Hall also appeared and played piano for a couple scenes
I don't blame you :D On another note, after watching this a second time you can note a few times that some people crack up. It is truly hard to tell if it is in fact improvised.
Ryan was the only Whose Line performer (Drew doesn't count) who was *permanently* on the Drew Carey show as a main character. But Drew sometimes brought in other Whose Liners for temporary guest roles, such as in this scene here. And Ryan was on the Drew Carey show *before* Drew Carey became Whose Line host. People claiming Drew got his show because of Whose Line have it backward. Drew got his own show by being a well known stand-up. THEN he became Whose Line host after he had DCS.
I knew that was Craig ferguson before he even walked up, his british accent is unmistakable haha loved late late show with him miss it soo bloody much. By the way ive never seen this show haha
On occasion, they did a live telecast. It usually coincided with some bizarre contest to watch for an Easter Egg in the show or one of the commercial breaks (it was a 90s fad to get the ratings up)

@@TooTallTurtle87 No it's not if nobody ever even asked about that thing.
@@MinimiMax using semantics to pretend lying by omission isn't a thing. Nice.
@@MinimiMax that's called omission buddy
👍
I can't watch Colin without thinking he's in an improv scene.
He had a role in a Hallmark movie and the entire time I was expecting some random joke or 4th wall breaking moment.
@@JayIceColdD called?
@@JayIceColdD what movie?
They were all such terrible actors on this show. Drew couldn't act for shit and Colin and Ryan are pretty terrible at acting as well.
That's literally what this is
When Colin Said "Im not afraid to shine" I just kept thinking, Bald Joke.
Hahaha
TurretsGunZ good I’m not the only one
HAHAHHA
That’s why they call him Captain Hair.

dunbar9finger thanks for this!!
That explains the amazing connection between those two.
Uuuuh boom

Drew Carey was the hero we needed
"Eugene just told me I had a butt like a cupcake."
"That BITCH."
LMFAO I died.
This show was so original, mixing scripted scenes with improv was pure genius.
4:36 Hey look it’s Brad, Colin, Ryan, Wayne, and Drew.
The gang was already there
Man that's so weird to see
nah, that’s Drew, Louis, Eugene, and a couple of newbies!
Whose Sitcom Is It Anyway?
You win everything

Tamashi88 Looks like someone didn't get the most obvious joke in the history of obvious jokes.
Exceltiaawesome
oh shit I was so tired last night that I didn't even read that right. I read it as "What sitcom is this anyway"
Out of all the shows that could come back and have it feel natural and make sense, The Drew Carey Show is one I'd like to see have another run..
3:43 IT'S WHOSE LINE!!!
The whole thing is a bunch of whose line insinuations.
"Why... did I talk? ... Why? ... WHY DID I TALK?!"
"I don't like him anymore"
"If you don't say anything you never say the wrong thing." Words to live by.
Miss this show :(
Wish they would release the entire series on dvd already because i would definitely buy them all!
same here!
According to Wikipedia, it's cuz the show used way too much licensed music.
@@Morgil27 Same thing with Malcolm In The Middle.
Holy shit.... That's Craig Ferguson.... Along with the cast from Whose Line? Oh man that would've been awesome

Man, I love this show. Funny as all hell.
Loved this show
Why do i feel like colin partly didn't talk because that way he didn't have to memorize lines
I assumed it's cuz he sounds so obviously Canadian. Which is why they prob mentioned it later. No getting around that.
@@TaylorAmelia ...what? what is the logic lol
What accent?
pbhtllt and “hoar-roar”
@pbhtllt da yoopers, not the yoopers.
Oh my god whose line mixed with the show with brad and Wayne as well it's is so great!
Wayne had no lines cool your jets
I love colin so much😭💙his comedic timing is always incredible
Interesting how Brad just came in to throw in some Whose Line stuff
Even when he doesn't speak, Colin is hilarious
Colin Mochrie’s guide to staying safe on the Internet.
What do you mean by that!? How dare you!
Craig said his shitty English accent was revenge for Scotty's shitty Scottish accent in Star Trek.
thats funny because they are both scottish

yea the old lady died or left. Craig took over. He was always hilarious.
“It must be jam ‘cause jelly don’t shake like that” 🤣
I didnt know Wayne, Colin, and Brad were in the Drew Carey show! All thats missing is Jeff and Greg and the entire Whose Line cast is in the show.
10 years later. The one with Wayne and Brad were only for the live episodes they did
This show was on while I was a child and I honestly cant tell you what it was about. All i remember is Mimi and her eyeshadow.
I'm the same way, I have no clue what this show is about, just know about Drew and Mimi.
I watched it as a kid and loved it lol. Being ten years old and watching a show about a guy working a crappy job with his crazy friends lol
I used to watch the Drew Carey Show long time ago, and after watching this, I was surprised to see all WLIIA gang in this show, I want to start watching that Drew Carey show again!!!
Colin is wonderful in anything and everything he's in
They could have just had Craig do a Scottish accent for the same effect really.
Trent csqw aswell as colin, that would've been good
He actually is Scottish, and he did an English accent as payback for all the years of the English doing a Scottish accent. Look it up.
He slips into the Scottish accent a bit, if you listen closely.
Yeah. I can hear it every now and then. "Stop your yammering" and "ice cream for breakfast" is when it's at its most obvious, but there's still a Scottish twang in his vowels now and then.

'You know, I once ran over someone and kept on going.'
'No no no, you don't let obstacles get in your way!'
one of my new favourite Drew Carey Show lines!
Damn, Brad, Wayne, Drew, Ryan, and Colin, all acting out parts or Whose Line! Great!
Now I want to see the three episodes in which Colin appeared
Thank you for this! I don't think I could have sat through all these episodes just to get to the best bits (Colin and Craig).
I'm in the process of doing montages of Brad, Wayne, and parts with the other improvisers. I'll only include a bit of Ryan doing the improv bits, seeing as how Ryan's in every episode of the show :)
That was so cool! The whole Whose Line cast was there, even Brad! I wish they'd had more Colin and Ryan though. :P
Oswald's cracking up at 6:57 is the best part.
Colin Mochrie is the best, my favourite canadian.
My favourite person
this is amazing!
I never realized that they did “whose line”
Comedy during the show!
LOL!
Love how its basically whose line but with actual sets/props
Loved this show so much
"I'm not afraid to shine"
is that a subtle bald joke?
This show's bumper music gives me life
Ryans face when he say the stripper. . . . . PRICELESS
I had heard rumors of DrewCol on here, but i didn't believe it! Until now!
And some hints of RyCol lol

Diedrich’s laugh was genuine during the whose Line game with different kisses
So much WLIIA cast!! I'm nerding outtttt!!
They all were in there , wow
“I’m not afraid to shine” is that a bald joke?

A gay Colin hitting on Drew is just too scary

Or too amazing
Colin is actually Bisexual. His son is a transexual

7:26

It’s on Whose Line.

i love the way its all the Crew from "Whose Line"
I don't blame you :D On another note, after watching this a second time you can note a few times that some people crack up. It is truly hard to tell if it is in fact improvised.

I loved these live episodes. I used to look forward to them, but I think they only did two...
beats me what's the hell that supposed to mean get out of my bar
I missed this special episode when the drew Carey show was on.
The telephone at the end. Lol.
How IN the world come I never heard about this gem?
*Hugo Weaving voice* Mr. Anderson.
I miss this show
Wish they would put these on prime
To watch
*Genius*
Must be on line one! HAHAHA perfect cover.
had completely forgotten how funny this show was.
Flawless Whose Line reference.
I knew that was Craig ferguson before he even walked up, his british accent is unmistakable haha loved late late show with him miss it soo bloody much. By the way ive never seen this show haha
So, Whose Line, Improvaganza, and Craig Ferguson all rolled into one? 🤣
Be happy it's coming back...
Every time I meet a friend of my brother, I tell them his internet name, MrFabulousBottomTrouserMan.
I love Colin!
Who wouldnt
Colin is great!
so underrated
Colin Mochries style of acting always reminds me of Bill Hader.
I never seen this show much but when I did, it was funny as hell. All the cast from Whose line is it anyways
Sounds like a quirk from Whose Line: "Everything he says pisses everyone else off"
It does have Wayne too.
he was in it.
I remember that episode of the drew carey show..man I never laughed harder.
is this a sitcom and improv combined?
I agree. I dunno what percentage is scripted and what percentage is improv.
On occasion, they did a live telecast. It usually coincided with some bizarre contest to watch for an Easter Egg in the show or one of the commercial breaks (it was a 90s fad to get the ratings up)
thanks for the tip eugene
Why did it stop? That was great
i was watching this cause i love whose line and then all of the sudden holy shit is that craig ferguson?
every now and then they'd have special improv versions of the shows. normally it's just a sitcom
