Drew Carey hosts the hilarious "Whose Line is it Anyway" (adapted from a British show of the same name). In this show, four actor/comedians (usually Colin Mochrie, Wayne Brady, Ryan Stiles, and a "wildcard") act out improvisational comedy skits.

These skits are hilarious! My wife and I will sometimes be in tears laughing at these incredibly skilled actors who can do amazing improvisational comedy. They also have a great rapport with each other, which is probably the key to the show.

That being said, the first season doesn't quite live up to the later seasons. Some of the skits ("games") were a bit lame and not that funny - it's as if the writers were still searching for the best ideas for the show. And don't get excited about the "Uncensored" label, because little if anything in this season was actually censored, so you won't see anything that you haven't already seen.

Still, it's a side-splittingly funny show with a fabulous cast and should be must-buy for anyone.

I grew up watching this series, and the only part about it that disappointed me is that there were not more seasons available apart from season one. The best sketch is watching Ryan in "Party Quirks" be a "Foal being born". Excellent for anyone who wants a good belly laugh.

I got this for my son's 13th birthday. I was a little worried about it being "Uncensored" but it is the same as what they show on television. If you're okay with what they show on tv, the uncensored is going to be fine. Would have been nice if they could put the whole season on one DVD. Also, can't wait for the rest of the seasons to come out.

I am a middle school teacher and wanted to SHOW my kids what the best improvisation looked like. When I first started teaching I would give my students bonus points for taping 'Who's Line' so that our class could watch a couple of shows before we tried improv games for ourselves. Of course the tapes were in pretty BAD shape when I found the first season available on-line.
These shows are GREAT for my classroom as I olny have to fast forward through a few scenes, and of course no commercials! I totally understand what some of the reviewers mean about wanting the later episodes, but for educational purposes the first season is PERFECT!

I enjoyed the series. The videos were alright. The later shows were the best. I really enjoyed the extras. I was hoping to see the episodes uncut. I was hoping to see more of the bloopers, that I know had to happen on the show. I was also disappointed not to be able to see the episodes unedited. I know that some people cannot tolerate the strong language but that is what I was looking for. I am waiting for them to release some footage from later on in the series.

Just what I was looking for. I loved this show and I was waiting for something like this to appear on amazon.
Perfect.

As with the release of the British version of this series, there are only Season's One and Two released on DVD. The American Version is equally if not more amusing than it's British counterpart, and will be enjoyed over and over again. We eagerly await additional seasons being released to watch.

The item was as described. It actually arrived before the date expected. Great quality both video and sound. Would definitely recommend it.

We purchased this based on the television show, but it includes parts they can not show on TV. Mostly crude jokes and language. It was very funny and we love Drew Cary.

I bought these videos and I have extreme background noise...If I turn the sound down, to where I can't hear it...it goes away. Not impressed!
