Am I the only one

Am I the only one who likes the show? Sure its not nearly as good as Whose Line and the absence of Wayne Brady and Ryan Stiles isn't very good news, but I think the show is pretty funny and the animation is cool. I love all of these comedians and its nice to see Greg Proops, Brad Sherwood, Chip Esten, and Jeff Davis work together, as they never were in the same episode on Whose Line.

No you are not the only one. I as well like the show too. Though I am upset on the absence of Ryan the show can still give me a lot of good laughs. I remember my gut was busting from Colin's line "And where's my doughnut?" when the cast were telling the ghost story about Bertha.

I love the show too. Its amazing how people, including Whosers, can say all this bad stuff about GS! I was so shocked to read the reviews from people and all of them went somthing like this "This show is bad and deservs to be cut, but I am a fan of Whose Line ...". I mean come on! Give Drew and the guys a brake!

I actually like it even more than the holy cow "whose line"... jeff is genius and it is a shame that he wasn't on "whose line" more often!!

the potonion story was a high-light... genius!!

I agree with the above. I LOVE Whose Line, but GS is more fun to me (maybe because it's very fast-paced and I'm impatient). It's wonderful to see guys like Jeff, Chip, Jon and Sean getting out there in their prime and showing off their talents like they never could on Whose Line. They're great, and the show really showcases that. Ryan, Colin and Wayne were great, but they sort of had their spotlight on Whose Line, and it's nice to see new faces.

(And Drew rocks the socks I walk in.)

Great subject lines. *rolls eyes*

I agree too. How many times is he on whose line anyways?

Of course, it's going to be compared to "Whose Line?", but I tried to see it on its own merits. I've watched perhaps 4-5 shows, and here's my problem: I just don't find it funny.

It's very "clever", and some of the animation is very good, but I preferred imagining what was there rather than having someone else imagine it for me. The bottom line is that I simply didn't laugh - a rather important element of most comedies.

actually they cut up all the segments in each taping and rearranged them...it wasn't just the best. Cause if you watch, you'll see the actors in the same clothes in EACH episode...why they rearranged them...who knows? Perhaps they thought the order was better that way or for time.

I loved the show and really don't understand why people are bashing it. I've read reviews saying Colin doesn't have Ryan, oh no! Um, i think Colin is actually pretty good on his own. I love Ryan, don't get me wrong, but the show is just as enjoyable without him. There are some really stand out moments for me. The freeze tag with Yoga Hurts and the story about the man who stole Florida had me in stitches. I enjoyed this show for what it was, not in comparison to Whose Line. You just have to think of it as a separate entity. It gave a new twist to some old improv, I think it worked. It was nice to see Greg/Brad/Chip/Jeff all working together. I never realised how good Jeff and Greg are together!
