Post by bunniefuu »

CAREY: Good evening, and welcome to Whose Line Is It Anyway? Tonight, our performers are criminal mastermind Greg Proops.

Representing all her homegirls up in county jail, boy it`s Denny Siegel.

East Coast gangster, Colin Mochrie.

And straight out of Compton, it`s Ryan Stiles.

And l`m your host, Drew Carey.

Come on down, let`s have some fun.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

CAREY: Thank you, thank you.

Welcome to Whose Line Is It Anyway? Where everything`s made up and the points don`t matter.

How the show works is we have suggestions the performers haven`t seen.

And suggestions from the audience these guys have to work out a skit or sketch.

They have to make it funny and make it up right on the spot.

It`s fun.

I award points, which don`t make a difference because the people I like best win and they get to do something with me.

[LAUGHTER AND WHlSTLES]

I don`t like it any more than they do.

[LAUGHTER]

We`re going to start with Weird Newscasters.

Four of you.

In this game, Greg is going to be the anchor of a news program Colin, Denny, and Ryan are co-presenters on the show each of them is gonna be a really odd character.

Greg`s co-anchor is Colin.

CAREY: Colin, you`re auditioning for roles in a horror movie.

[CHUCkLES]

Denny, you`re doing sports and you`re a Catskills comedian.

Good luck.

And Ryan, you`re doing the weather and you keep carelessly throwing away your lit cigarettes.

Greg, whenever you hear the music, go ahead.

[UPBEAT MUSlC PLAYS]

Good evening.

I`m shallow but authoritative.

These are the headlines.

There`s apricots all over the Washington Monument and monkey children have swarmed the capitol.

Colin? [AS FRANkENSTElN]

Everywherechaos! Burning fire! [SCREAMlNG]

[GlBBERlNG [CHEERS]

[LAUGHS]

The full moon! [HOWLlNG]

Stop it! [AUDlENCE LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS]

We-- Thank you, Colin.

Now we move over to Denny at the sports desk.

Denny, we understand you just flew in from New York City.

That`s right.

It was cold up there.

Anyway, l`m here to talk about sports.

My husband is a Yankees fan.

It hasn`t been good with my husband.

He said, "That`s the worst sex we ever had.

" I said, "Honey, you just vacuumed the rug.

" Ha! Things are hard for me at home.

My kids hate me.

Two kids I breast-feed I have the only infant bulimics in the country.

Ha! It doesn`t turn me off.

I`d like to have more.

My biological clock is ticking.

Of course, my womb is so stretched out, it`s Big Ben.

Ha! Back to you.

[GROANlNG]

Ah-ah-ah-ah! Ahem.

Thank you, Denny.

Well, there`s a whole lot of weather coming up this weekend Iet`s throw it over to Ryan and see what`s happening there.

Ryan? Well, thank you, Greg.

We`ve got quite a bit of cold weather in store.

As you can tell by looking at our map, Oregon is on fire.

Oregon is on fire, and it`s moving up to Washington State.

Up to Washington, into British Columbia.

Oregon`s on fire.

Oh, my God! I`m on fire! Someone help me! I`m on fire! Put me out! Put me out! [MOCHRlE GROANlNG]

Someone`s on fire! Put it out! [SCREAMlNG]

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

Back to you, Greg.

That`s all the time we have for tonight.

We`ll see you tomorrow.

Stay tuned for When Vegetables att*ck.

I`m going to give %00,000 points to Ryan for setting the whole Western United States on fire.

Let`s go to a game called Multiple Personalities.

For Ryan, Colin, and Greg.

They`ll act a scene involving three items.

Let`s get the items.

Each item has a different personality attached.

Here you go.

Whoever`s holding the flashlight is Liberace.

[LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE]

Whosever holding the a* is Jimmy Stewart.

And whosever holding the r*fle is Scooby-Doo.

The scene is, you`re having a problem while out hunting.

Wha-wha-wha-wha- wha-wha-wha-wha- What-what-what-what-- Shh! I`m telling you, I heard a noise.

A noise in the bush.

Rooby-roo! Rooby-roo! [MUMBLlNG LlkE SCOOBY-DOO]

Somebody has to go in the bush and take a look.

My brother George told me this could be dangerous.

Oh, N-- No.

It`s the easiest thing in the world.

[STAMMERlNG]

You put one-- One-- One-- One-- One foot in front of the other, and you move.

Well, if you`re both going to be sissies, l`ll go first.

Well-- Well-- Well, why don`t you do that? Bl-bl-bl-bl! Oh, gosh.

Look over there.

N-- N-- Now, t-- t-- that doesn`t look normal over there.

Well, it`s just two minks doing what minks do.

Maybe you better give me the g*n -in case I got to sh**t something.

-W-- W-- Like what? -Uh-oh.

-Woop.

What is it? Wha-- What is it? It`s a rig rare! It`s a rig rare! Rig rare in the rushes! GREG: Oh.

Oh.

Give me that-- [MUMBLlNG LlkE SCOOBY-DOO]

[lMlTATES g*nshots]

-lt`s read row! -Look at that.

You-- You-- You-- You-- You-- You-- -You`ve sh*t a little squirrel there.

-Oof.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

Colin, you get all the points for that one.

Because l`m starting to feel sorry for you.

Now, let`s play a game called Fashion Models.

This is for Greg and Denny and Ryan and Colin.

The idea of this game is Greg and Denny are gonna comment on a fashion show.

Ryan and Colin are the models.

However, the fashions that they`re wearing are not what you might expect.

What I need from the audience is a type of profession.

MAN: Soccer player.

[SHOUTlNG ANSWERS]

I just heard a really good one.

Professional wrestling.

And welcome to the professional wrestling fall fashion lineup.

I love wrestling.

It`s the only sport that proves that women aren`t the only ones to fake it.

[LAUGHTER AND CHEERS]

And no one cares if they do.

Autumn is here-- Autumn is here and it is time for tights.

Let`s look at Ryan in this first ensemble.

You know, green, green, green is this year`s orange and this is one who`s gonna frighten the other ones when he enters the ring with these bun-hugging crotch-buffeting, fabulous, absolutely skin-tight lycra shorts.

Absolutely.

If you`re going to be pinning a hunky man to the mat it`s the only thing to wear.

Well, here comes a sassy little number worn by our wrestler, Colin.

[CHEERS AND LAUGHTER]

PROOPS: This is a retro `%0s ensemble.

Harkening back to the days of Gorgeous George.

SlEGEL: Yes, of course.

[SlEGEL CHUCkLES]

SlEGEL: This is his famous dive-- I don`t want to know what that is.

PROOPS: And here comes Ryan to join him -for the climactic finale of our show.

SlEGEL: Oh.

SlEGEL: Look at the lycra ripple.

PROOPS: As they lock heads.

These body-hugging outfits are certainly the kind that will turn a young boy`s fancy to mutilation and choking.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

Great.

I don`t know about you guys but I like the idea of Colin and Ryan in tights so 1 000 points to each of them.

Now, let`s go on to a game called World`s Worst.

I want you to step up to this lower step.

And line up in a row.

And this is a real quick game.

Come up with as many examples as possible of the world`s worst person to be president of the United States.

And you-know-who doesn`t count.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

[AS RONALD REAGAN]

Hello.

Remember me? [BUZZER SOUNDS]

My multiple personalities erase the need for a two-party system.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

Ruh-oh.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

From now on, everyone in North Dakota is named Tim.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[SHOUTlNG lN GERMAN]

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[AS MlSTER ROGERS]

Well, it`s a beautiful day in the White House.

[CAREY LAUGHS THEN BUZZER SOUNDS]

Sometimes I see my ex-husband`s face on the button that leads to the b*mb.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

This country doesn`t need a president.

It needs a makeover.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[COUGHS]

Excuse me.

While I drink the water, my vice president will finish my speech.

[MUMBLlNG AS VENTRlLOQUlST]

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

Meet the new members of the Supreme Court.

This is Tex and Squeaky-- [BUZZER SOUNDS]

Uh-oh.

It`s Columbus Day, and we`re selling off all the states, starting with Alaska! What is your best bid? We`ve gone crazy! [BUZZER SOUNDS TWlCE]

CAREY: Okay, that`s it, everybody.

Thank you very much.

We`re going to take a commercial break.

We`ll come back with more Whose Line Is It Anyway? in a minute.

Don`t go away.

Hey, welcome back to Whose Line Is It Anyway?.

The show where everything`s made up.

I don`t know about you but l`m buying two of everything that was just advertised.

I don`t care if it was made for a woman or a man or what.

[LAUGHTER]

Now we come to a game called Props.

We`re going to divide the performers and give them props to use in as many ways as they can.

Ryan and Denny, this is your prop.

Why don`t you come and get this? And Greg and Colin, this is your prop.

[COUGHS]

Stop teasing me, Mr.

Carey.

Oh, if I had a nickel for every time I heard that, huh? [CAREY CHUCkLES]

Ryan and Denny, you`re going to start when you`re ready.

[CRlES]

He didn`t even see the car.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

I think he`s happy.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[lN lTALlAN ACCENT]

We`re out of cheese! Get me more cheese! We`re out of cheese! [BUZZER SOUNDS]

Some people are embarrassed by an outie.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

Baaah! Well, that`s one angry clam.

[BOTH CHUCkLE]

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

You didn`t tell me about the drawbacks to breast-feeding.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[CRYlNG LlkE A BABY]

Is Nanook comfortable in papoose? [BUZZER SOUNDS]

That plane`s going to have trouble landing.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

Are these the biggest condoms you have? [BUZZER SOUNDS]

Are these the biggest condoms you have? [BUZZER SOUNDS]

-Why does this always rain over me? -I don`t know.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

Yes, Senator Dole, I think this will work out for you.

[BUZZER SOUNDS]

[SPEAkS lN SPANlSH]

CAREY: Hey, that`s great.

Oh! A thousand points for each of you because I love a big finish.

[CHUCkLES THEN HUMS]

Now we go to a game called Party Quirks.

For all of you.

Greg, you`re going to be hosting a party then Denny, Colin, and Ryan will come in.

On these envelopes, we`ve given them each a strange quirk.

They haven`t seen any of these suggestions and Greg is going to have to try to guess what they are by the end of the party.

So, Greg, whenever you`re ready, start the party, and l`ll bring everybody in.

This is gonna be the best party ever.

[DOORBELL RlNGS]

-Hi! Hi, Denny.

-You couldn`t invite me yourself? I had to hear about it third-person from your Uncle Morty? Excuse me.

Well, l`m sorry.

Can I get you-- What is this? Pork rinds? I`m having a heart att*ck.

-No, please.

-Oh, my God.

Can I get you a chair or something? A chair? You couldn`t put me on your lap after all the years that l suckled you at my own breast? [DOORBELL RlNGlNG]

[CHUCkLES]

Ryan, have you met my friend? He`s a kleptomaniac.

He`s pilfering.

He wants at something very badly.

He is-- He is the most fun at a party of anyone l`ve ever invited.

He`s trying to steal something.

He wants my pocket.

-What does he like to do? -Well, jeez.

CAREY: How about a hand for Laura Hall? It`s time for the hoedown.

[SlNGSONG]

Time for the hoedown.

Ta! Ta-ta-ta! I need from the audience something about modern life that annoys you.

[SHOUTlNG ANSWERS]

What was that? IRS.

That`s okay.

The lnternal Revenue Service, who I love.

They might be annoyed at it, but it`s not me.

Let`s hear the lRS hoedown, Greg.

In 90 seconds, we have to do a scene everything has to start with the next letter of the alphabet -starting with what letter, audience? WOMAN: B! "B," I heard.

Thank you very much.

That`s easy.

-And, Colin, what`s our scene? -You are three roommates.

Just because I set the kitchen on fire is no reason to kick me out.

Like you forgot.

Many men will come through here but none will ever do for you the things I did.

Name one thing.

Name one thing.
