Ryan not a regular on 'Green Screen'

I know Ryan is listed on the imdb page for 'Green Screen,' but I found the following on Colin's official website...

"The cast is listed as: Ryan Stiles, Colin Mochrie, Chip Esten, Brad Sherwood, Jeff Davis, Greg Proops, Kathy Kinney, John Magnum, Kaitlin Olson, Sean Masterson. However, it has been confirmed otherwise that Ryan will not be a regular - he'll do a couple of tapings as a guest star, that's it."

I couldn't imagine an improv show without Ryan as a regular. I know everyone else is great, and I'm sure the show will still be fun, but it's hard to picture it without Ryan.

Very hard. I wish they would bring my favorite three back from the British Whose Line for this show, Tony Slattery, Mike McShane, and Stephen Frost. Other then Ryan, Greg and Colin, these three were the best part of the show.

it's just as well...besides, he'll finally get a chance to spend some time with the wife and kids; and anyway, the folks at the WB made the ultimate faux pas: placing Green Screen in the 8:30 p.m. EST time slot which means it'll go tete to tete against Survivor and Will & Grace :( SUCKERS!!

They should get Clive Anderson down there, and make him improv some stuff. I'd like to see that. Too bad they didn't mix things up on the newer WLIIA, where Clive made an apperance as a guest host, and drew was up there, sitting with everyone else, improving stuff for almost every game. That would've been great. Seeing how he cracks up so easily would have made it even better. I'm glad this new "whose line" type of improv show is comming back. With (almost) all of the old people, and a few new ones, too.

Ryan's funny. He should be on this.

Johnny Carson 1925-2005. We will never forget you.

They had such a large staff of actors - that most of them were sitting on the sidelines. Kathy Kinney didn't even get a chance to perform before it canceled.
