Hi all, thanks for the crazy support on this video! I just wanted to clarify if it wasn’t already clear: This is not a compilation that I have made, this was a TV Special that aired on ABC back in 2000, featuring moments from Season 2. That’s why some of the more “iconic” moments or celebrity guests aren’t featured here, because they hadn’t aired yet. Maybe one day I’ll make a real “Best of Whose Line” video ;)
Is there any way you can make a compilation of the Helping Hands skits? Those were my favorite! Thank you so much for this channel. I miss Whose Line, especially the ones where Drew hosted. This is extremely appreciated and this particular video, Best Of, is absolutely fantastic!! 😊
The funniest man ever on a ratio of words spoken vs length and volume of laugh is Tommy Newsom, "He took his wife to Florida, he went to Tampa with her."
You can't tell me this wasn't the BEST era of whose line to ever exist. They were all in their prime. I'm glad they brought the majority of the cast back and even with them still being the best at improv there was nothing like this moment in time
i love when drew say "this is a special 1 hour episode of Whose Line Is It Anyway" and then look down and see the video is only 38 minutes. and i know it was probably 1 hour original with all the tv commercials
34:34 "...and TAKE ME ON A ! ...ohsorryonewordatatime..." It was a beautiful, poignant moment regardless. Drew's heart was full and he was swept up in the moment.
Might be the one scene that always hits me the same watching. It’s such a simple sweet and hilarious and good natured moment and you see how well they get along.
@@MasterMewtwo239 there is a live show that tours the country from time to time. The cast varies but it usually has Brad Sherwood, and Greg Props, and sometimes Ryan Styles. The other members vary. But Collin has never been with them when they come to our area. I ask her every time I see them coming. But if Collin isn't with them, she won't go. I did recently find out that he has a show called Hypnoprov in Las Vegas that he does right now. Maybe we will make it out there to see him one day.
I remember watching this on TV as a teen and now I’m smiling throughout with joy as an adult close to being 40. Thank you for uploading a great special 😊
Man I just remember my college days where I would just have real cheap Chinese food, study for my finals and in the background would just have compilations of Whose Line is it Anyway? going on in the background. It was like clockwork too.
I wish they'd include my favorite Ryan moment. During "Party Guests" he was playing Carol Channing that kept getting her head stuck to things and he ran his head into the neon light on the front of Drew's desk and it broke on his head. Ryan didn't even break character as he asked "tell me, am I bleeding?" The talent and dedication that took was astounding.
26:15 is truly one of the greatest moments of television. "It all started with a badly timed bald joke". I've laughed HARD at many comedy routines and one liners even on this show, but this just takes the cake. I think you could actually combine the mirth from the next top 5 bald Colin jokes and they wouldn't come close to that of this one.
The spontaneity to do improv verbal & physical comedy is at this level is amazing & rare. I loved watching this show. Wayne Brady apart from being incredibly funny could really sing, a huge takent. A yet he ends up hosting a game show. Also the Canadian comics - this was the show that exemplified how funny they were - scripted shows that depend on writers wit & spontaniety can limit the scope. Or conversely feed the funny to someone who didnt have this type of talent & build a show nonetheless. Drew Carey's own show. This improv where he got up on stage w these marvellous talents, he mostly covered his part by laughing. ( ok on the hosting). 🇨🇦 has a large number of comedians who became big in USA, John Candy one of the pioneers, Jim Carey one of the most successful but there are many, which proves we are known for the best qualities. Humour, making people laugh...not just hockey in our DNA. 😂
Imagine back in the day finally getting tickets to see the taping of Who's Line.. and finding out it's an hour special! Then getting there and it's just Drew introducing clips.
To be fair, they frequently taped multiple episodes at a time. That's why some inside jokes managed to find their ways to appearing numerous times over the course of a season.
You've got Soul might be my favorite Who's Line moment of all time. Drew's flubs leading up to his inability to sing anything without laughing brings me to tears
@@Technichian462 He was a special guest brought in to break up the monotony, similar to what they do with the Aisha Tyler seasons. For Robin Williams, he was one of the seated comedians introduced at the beginning of the show, i believe.
@@iandude1 I seem to remember it was the Episode that had some of them on the floor lying on their stomachs. With someone standing above them feet on either side of the wait. They then pulled up the hands of the ones prone, and acted like they were Jet Skis (?). Robin stood over Richard, but Ricahrd immediatly spun over so he was face up, when Robin grabbed his hands. I think it only aired the one time, because the censors didnt notice it in time. Ol Richard Simmons looked like a sex toy with his mouth in an 'O' shape and going back and forth in front of Robin. It was one of the funniest episodes ever,
@@iandude1 I was wrong. It wasn't with Robin Williams. It was Collin that did it with Richard... ua-cam.com/video/b-r4Flc_d2M/v-deo.htmlsi=MHXjRolNPs3KSkU3
In the Netherlands we had the version of this show and it was one of the greatest hits in television history. They named it ‘de Lama’s ‘ (easy translation for a change, since it means: the lamas). The viewers were absolutely impressed by the talent that was shown by the cast, which was indeed very funny. BUT, the American show ours was based on (being ‘Whose line…) is so, so, SO MUCH better than our (already very good) shows!! And even though it has been MANY YEARS since the shows were aired in the US, for many people living outside of the US, this is all NEW MATERIAL!! I’m one of those, who has only JUST discovered these gems and now I’m hooked! Thankful I’ve got a LOT OF SHOW TO WATCH and enjoy now!! In full admiration and awe!! 😂❤
An endless supply of points to Melissa ☝️😆. What an incredible sport, being able to see the funny side of a very embarrassing situation, especially with the guys mentioning the incident several more times that episode 👍🤣
Watching this makes me think perhaps younger comedians are not so physical in their humour now. Maybe I just don't know the ones who are good at physical theatre/comedy. I miss the days of watching this while I was still a kid with my whole family. Great memories of my whole family laughing together until we cried. This cast inspired so many young people to get into theatre and improv comedy and make people laugh. They will always be legends.❤
the funniest thing i have seen on that show was with Richard Simons and the jet ski that was off the chain funny! sketch from S5 E17 -- "Living Scenery"
Thank you so much for posting this! My best friend used to come over one night a week (we both worked long hours), and we would watch WLiiA and roll!!! Good times! 😂🤣 13:12 Wayne in the background just dying with laughter at Drew! 🤣😂 13:12

Searching "Best of Whose Line" gives 12,000 results.
12,500....
13,000...
Say less. It's amazing and you can't find this anywhere else.
Would love an actual "Best Of Whose Line" video!

I don't understand what people don't understand 😂
I said it once and I’ll say it again, WE NEED A BOX SET, ALL SEASONS, UNCUT AND UNCENSORED
All seasons? back to 1988?
And Ryan's first show in 1989.
Definitely! I would pay whatever they asked.
@@Ron-d2s yes every single one
@@Coco-mm7wr me too! TAKE MY MONEY haha
That would be fabulous!
I will never, ever get tired of watching Whose Line clips. Ever.
Also, Colin Mochrie is the funniest man on the planet.
YES!!!!!
I was going to give you another like but you already have 69
OK Colin, you don't actually have to comment here lol
@@Veronica.John10-10 Meow! 😂😂😂😂

All the praise goes to Melissa! I remember watching this when it first aired. She was so gracious about it.
I miss Drew with these guys. They had a chemistry that was hilarious.
aisha does not compare, Drew was great!
Agreed. It's not the same anymore. I got to see wayne brady do a solo stand up show once, that was really cool though!
Drew sucks balls
with drew, there seemed to be more genuine laughs, maybe that's just me. still love the show with aisha :)
@@nitemare1004 I agree, initially I wasn't a fan of the switch to Aisha but she grew on me. Still not as good as the Drew era, though.
Poor Melissa. 😂 Glad she has a wonderful sense of humor.
They should have helped her start a career considering how much they just pounded on her
she was DESTROYED@@WarDaft
@@WarDaft Gotta hand it to Chip for stepping in & de-escalating it repeatedly.
I hope they gave her a free shirt or something for it
She did have a great butt.
I love how at 27:09 you can see the exact moment Colin realizes what's on the greenscreen.
And I absolutely love the amount of joy Ryan and Chip get when they see Colin realize too, lol, it's a beautiful AND hilarious moment.
i love when drew say "this is a special 1 hour episode of Whose Line Is It Anyway" and then look down and see the video is only 38 minutes.
and i know it was probably 1 hour original with all the tv commercials
34:34 "...and TAKE ME ON A ! ...ohsorryonewordatatime..." It was a beautiful, poignant moment regardless. Drew's heart was full and he was swept up in the moment.
And it all leads to my favorite part of the song at Drew Carey's last little "...me!" where he (and the others) just start dying of laughter!
@@nickthedreamer4434 100% agree, when he squeaks out "me" and everyone just loses it kills me EVERY time.
i was dying laughing. he was so embarassed afterward he didn't know what to do haha
David hasslehoff did the same game and couldn't get it either lol
Might be the one scene that always hits me the same watching. It’s such a simple sweet and hilarious and good natured moment and you see how well they get along.
The only thing to make this full circle would be if Melissa was a contestant on Let's Make a Deal and reminded Wayne of that skit
Facts
And went dressed as one of the others ❤
The bald jokes about colin are always very funny, but they never compare to Colin's comebacks.
Google Captain Hair.
He is my wife's favorite. She refuses to see the show on tour because Collin isn't with them.
Huh? The new show with Aisha Tyler had Colin on it.
@@MasterMewtwo239 there is a live show that tours the country from time to time. The cast varies but it usually has Brad Sherwood, and Greg Props, and sometimes Ryan Styles. The other members vary. But Collin has never been with them when they come to our area. I ask her every time I see them coming. But if Collin isn't with them, she won't go.
I did recently find out that he has a show called Hypnoprov in Las Vegas that he does right now. Maybe we will make it out there to see him one day.
My favorite comeback was “it’s ok, I’ll be your lightning rod of hate”. I say that constantly
That moment when “badly timed bald joke” is the absolute greatest timed bald joke!!
I remember watching this on TV as a teen and now I’m smiling throughout with joy as an adult close to being 40. Thank you for uploading a great special 😊

I remember the one with the girl's skirt. Laughed so hard. I've wanted to see that sketch again. Thank you.
I hope Melissa has these taped somewhere 😂😂
I'm sure she can easily find it everywhere online.
Probably not, but I'm sure her friends do.
Man I just remember my college days where I would just have real cheap Chinese food, study for my finals and in the background would just have compilations of Whose Line is it Anyway? going on in the background. It was like clockwork too.
My husband and I would always watch in college too. Great memories!
Thank you for uploading this. And that too in such good quality. ❤
Happy to do it!
Ah, network television, where an hour-long show is actually only 38 minutes.
I think due to the commercials make the show longer.
@@matthewprestegaard1067I think that's the point. 22 min of ads in an "hour-long" broadcast

Sadly it’s not here, but it IS in my Party Quirks video!
That probably happened after this was aired on TV.
Whoever you are, thank you for all the Whose Line in such high quality.
26:15 is truly one of the greatest moments of television. "It all started with a badly timed bald joke". I've laughed HARD at many comedy routines and one liners even on this show, but this just takes the cake. I think you could actually combine the mirth from the next top 5 bald Colin jokes and they wouldn't come close to that of this one.
And the best part of it is the fact that Colin hadn't yet figured out what was on the green screen, yet that joke was so perfectly on-point!
I personally dont find the bald jokes funny at all because they seem to really bother colin himself

Still one of the funniest shows around!!
I don’t recommend watching this recovering from 5 rib fractures.
I went to a live recording of Drew Carey show with a cracked rib and l was in so much pain from laughing. Don’t envy you.
I don't reccomend listening to it in the car either
Or with the kids in bed. Fortunately I finished just before they went because I was laughing soooo loud.
You poor thing! I feel for you when it comes to this show!
We want Who's Line is it back on our screens!!!! When do we want it? NOW!!!!
The Drew era just hits different.
I think the word you're looking for is "better."
It really does
@@DGM132 I think they were both hilarious.
Wayne genuinely has a beautiful singing voice
Imagine back in the day finally getting tickets to see the taping of Who's Line.. and finding out it's an hour special!

To be fair, they frequently taped multiple episodes at a time. That's why some inside jokes managed to find their ways to appearing numerous times over the course of a season.
I was thinking the same thing, hopefully they did something a little special in-between
You've got Soul might be my favorite Who's Line moment of all time. Drew's flubs leading up to his inability to sing anything without laughing brings me to tears
After so many years…. I’m still laughing as hard to the same footage when I watched it on tv years ago :)
My favorite two episodes were with Robin Williams and Richard Simmons.
Yes! I’ve searched around and cant find it! Is it the one where Richard Simmons comes in randomly, as if he was not a guest?
@@Technichian462 He was a special guest brought in to break up the monotony, similar to what they do with the Aisha Tyler seasons. For Robin Williams, he was one of the seated comedians introduced at the beginning of the show, i believe.

In full admiration and awe!! 😂❤
Holy smokes I haven’t seen this show in such good quality since it aired
Melissa will forever be an icon 😂
Pure nostalgia! Who’s Line is a classic! This had me rolling. 🤣
God bless you for this HD upload. 🙏🏾
The way ads were actually played for me when there was an ad break announced in the video lmao
I wish original cast was still doing the show. Truly the best of times. Thanks!!!
The three headed broadway star can always make me laugh until I cry!
Its 230am and I'm over here laughing instead of sleeping😂😂😂
Colin is a Comedic Master.
WLiiA was pretty much the only thing that could make me laugh. It still does! Especially "You've Got Sole", lol. 😂
I luv Drew's laugh he has such a great one really miss him hosting this show
One of the few show that started in the UK but then got much better in the US.
I think that's the only show in which that happened
This is the fun thing I’ve seen this week!!! Thanks! I really miss this show! 😢
The skirt coming up was funny… but everything afterwards had me outward laughing as much as drew 🤣🤣🤣
The greatest moment of all time is when they had Richard Simmons on the show. I’ve never cried laughing so much in my entire life.
An endless supply of points to Melissa ☝️😆. What an incredible sport, being able to see the funny side of a very embarrassing situation, especially with the guys mentioning the incident several more times that episode 👍🤣
Best thing about the King Kong/skirt thing: Drew is laughing too hard to put a stop to the whole thing.
No one cracks me up more than Colin. He’s my top comedy crush!!
Colin and Ryan can make a perfect duo for a sitcom!
poor melissa 😂😂
Bill deserved at least 80% of the flack Monica got for that whole thing, but instead, people were like, "Wow, good for him." 😅
I love looking at the audience and seeing so many different people from all walks of life just enjoying a good laugh.❤️
Love the ending! I think this is the 10th time I've watched this and it's still hilarious! Thanks guys and gals - you're a riot!!! 😂❤😘
Some much-needed comedy! I couldn’t stop smiling, and, at times, I could barely breathe 😂
Absolutely the best channel on UA-cam. Thanks for allowing me to relive my childhood!
I keep forgetting Greg Proops was in Star Wars and then I hear his voice and it all comes flooding back
9:45 I love how they were continuously killing Wayne in the background since the maid outfit strut 😂🤣
Melissa was a legend. It's a sign of a truly big heart when you can laugh at yourself like that
It's criminal that none of my 3 favorite bits are included here: HORWARD, the Burnoose skit, and Ryan as Carol Channing. Lol.
Guess you’re just too stupid to understand what this episode was.
H-O-R-W-A-R-D
Thanks for putting this out here, what an amazing show!!
I think this is the clearest 480p video I have ever seen, Amazing!!
Thanks for uploading this.
This will forever go down as one of the best shows to ever air on TV.
When this show was on the air, my kids would always make fun of me because I'd laugh so hard I could barely breathe. Just absolutely hysterical.
The funniest programme ever!!!!!! Still watching all these years later. I can cry laughing still! Thank you all involved ❤
Would love to see an Irish Drinking Song compilation!
It'll be on the way soon! Just having issues with copyright at the moment :(
Nothing makes me laugh like they do. Thank you for uploading this gem!
This is MAGICAL!! Thank you so much!
I can't believe Drew didn't start the show with "that's right, the points are just like the clip show episode of a sitcom" missed opportunity 😂
21:58 lmao Colin just staring right into the camera 😂😂
God these make me cry laughing without fail. Haven't seen a lot of these. Thank you for your service!
All of them are funny but the way Colin and Ryan could play off each other was sheer brilliance. They were so tuned into each other.
"I love you so very much but ive had too many meatballs" almost took me out haha
1hr but less than 40 mins? Or was this TV broadcast with ads?
Either way, thank you for uploading this! 😁
It was a 1 hour broadcast with ads, and I had to cut out two scenes or the video would be blocked worldwide :/
8:15
"but who's expectin THIS?!"
So good

Thank you very much for the entertaining show. I always had a good laugh while watching Whose Line is it Anyway.
“They’re expecting us to be wearing buckskins and carrying guns but who’s expecting this” had my laughing so hard I couldn’t breathe
12:30 Has Ryan ever laughed like that?
There's alot of best moments but my most favorite best is when Richard Simmons was on
the funniest thing i have seen on that show was with Richard Simons and the jet ski that was off the chain funny! sketch from S5 E17 -- "Living Scenery"
i watch the Richard Simmons one at least once a year and am still laughing 'til i cry years later
@@jessikat38 right! me too lol
Oh the way I'd instantly pay for a full unedited of this show 😂
Great job on this video.
If you didn’t watch this in the 2000s you really missed out 😅
"You dont see that on Freinds"
I LOVE this show...Makes me laugh more than any sitcom on TV
Thank you so much for posting this! My best friend used to come over one night a week (we both worked long hours), and we would watch WLiiA and roll!!! Good times!
😂🤣 13:12 Wayne in the background just dying with laughter at Drew! 🤣😂

It became a recurring joke throughout that entire episode lol
Omg the Colin on Colin green screen absolutely killed me!!!😂
I seriously miss this TV show.❤
These guys have the best job in the world😄
Best show ever these people made my night filled with laughter….this is what you call entertainment!!!!!!!!
this is absolutely amazing!!!! thanks soooo much for sharing cant stop laughing
Melissa, the trooper
Nothing from the episode that blew the roof off with Robin Williams. Robin (R.I.P.) lifted Colin, Wayne and Ryan to another level of creative improv.
Agreed, yet even if there was clips with Robin I would have to remove them (they would make the video blocked worldwide) :(
@@dyloneth2 Why would it be blocked if Robin was in the clip?
I HAD TO LET MY Fish and Chip ' s GO COLD TO WATCH THIS , great job ;
27:14 moment of realization is my favorite haha
Thanks for posting this!
not a single one of colin and ryan selling records? insane!
