    This has to be the funniest comedy show ive ever seen. It been AGES since it was back on channel 4 and i found some torrents to the ABC showing in the US (the show seems to have moved stateside) and its still just as good. All you US people - you MUST MUST check it out if you can, its superb :) I hope they bring it back on C4 over here :D

    Anyone remember it? Must have been AT LEAST 5+ years ago since it was last on here.

    Yeah, I love that show. Not seen it for a while though. Greg Proops, the lanky guy the canadian guy and random comedian were the best :)

    Greg Proops r4wk5!

    My favourite parts:- where Colin Mochrie plays as Ryan Stiles hands and cause havoc together when trying to do a cooking slot.

    Sit, Stand, Bend - Three members have to keep moving in the aforementioned poses, but only one person can be sitting/standing/bent over at a time. This reduced me to tears of laughter.

    Superheroes - The audience chooses a superhero name/type for the initial character and through the rest of the scene, this lead superhero chooses the names/powers for the rest of the team as they come in one by one.

    Party Personas - The host of a party has the rest of the cast coming to his/her party, each of whom have an odd characteristic, which the host has to guess.

    Although I thought the hoedown which they finished each show with, was a weak point.

    Honroable mentions to Josie Lawrence, Tony Slattery.

    They have it on here on ABC Family at 10:00 and 10:30pm EST. The show is a bit different from the UK version though - Drew Carrey is the host and he lets the actors go on longer than the dude in the UK does.

    Wayne Brady is GOD. Or, at least, he should be. Do you have the one where he's singing a compilation of songs of the bus driver? "You're not on my root.. I mean route" by Michael Jackson :rock: Absolute genius. I forget which series/episode, though... tis a Drew Carey one, with Ryan, Greg and Colin.
