Drew loves Colin’s jokes. Never saw him give a standing ovation to anyone else like he did when Colin started the bit dancing disco. And the news crew one liners Drew laughed hard for those. I think Drew looked forward to hearing those each show.
Drew was, before anything, a fan of these guys... you see that he has the upmost respect and is aware he's not at the same level as them - he never steps on stage except at the end exactly because of this contrast. In his sitcom he often tried to insert people who he was also a fan, especially the musical guests.
Colin's humor is super influential, to me he's up there with Norm McDonald for these strangely well thought out gags delivered in a way thats so natural and honest
@@Lolbama2012"Finally"? Colin is an improv comedian, these tongue twisters are just one part of his routine. Norm is a deadpan comedian who's great at improv and meta jokes... a "comedian's comedian". Nothing new there.
Absolutely not. Colin's style of comedy is totally different, Norm is often very conceptual and meta, you can't be so meta at improv. They're just quick-witted, Colin being one of the greatest improv comedians doing it. Norm is not as quick-witted because improv is not his goal but he's in a whole other level of comedy when he's improvising.
I love how Colin always gets to be the news anchor because he's so utterly quick. Able to come up with pun names plus pun or joke related news stories to start the whole skit off.
Colin's run on this show, even sharing the screen with some world class talents, puts him in the running for one of the funniest men ever to appear on television. The one time I met him I said 'I only have to look at you and I start laughing!' He didnt take it as well as I expected. While I grew up on the original version of the show, its one of the few times when the American version has actually managed to improve on its inspiration, largely down to adjusting the formula to be less about pure improvisation and more about regular segments the players could prep for. The british version was originally formulated as a showcase for John Sessions rather highbrow improv and could get more than a little 'luvvy' at times, but was still a fantastic and hilarious showw and well worth seeking out if you've only ever seen the US version. It also gets away with much more grownup jokes that would not be allowed on American tv. Wayne Brady and Greg Proops appeared on the UK show, and some of the funniest performers were Josie Lawrence, Tony Slattery (delivering filthy jokes with the smirk of a schoolboy who just broke wind in class), Paul Merton (so deadpan it would sometimes take a second to realise he finished the joke) and Stephen Frost. Oh and some guy called... Colin... err... Mockery?
Well, yeah, because he's not Jim Carrey or Rowan Atkinson as Mr. Bean lol Colin is an everyday guy that you'd think he could do your taxes, not being the best improv comedian in history.
I'm pretty sure it was Wayne. Not counting the new seasons. I remember reading somewhere somebody actually added up all their points and wayne had the most.
@@succulentcranberry Dyloneth uploads compilations of old whose line is it anyway games in the original quality they were aired. His channel is worth a visit.
Y’all are so freaking brilliant how can you be like that? It makes me wonder if you actually have m Jonathan winters or Robin… what a bang in TNT that would be!
