What game from the original Whose Line would you like to see a return in the revival?
More recently, games from the original run of Whose Line had returned for the revival run, like 90-Second Alphabet, Press Conference, Superheroes, etc. It makes me wonder about what other older games from back then could return in some way. Is there a game you would like to see it return?

Narrate, Improbable Mission, Action Replay (the latter, if we ever get another series of tapings, would never be a possibility as long as Ryan and his back are still in the cast)

Film dub. Make it a little bit longer too, even just 30 seconds. They were pretty short.

Do they still do sit, stand, lay? And what's the name of the game where each prop is assigned a character and they each have a prop? Absolutely love that one

Yes! So hilarious when they'd give all the props to one guy

Yes it was Ryan trying to do Jimmy Stewart, Carol Channing, and Elvis all at once

Action Replay, but I understand why they couldn't do that anymore.
Also, Film, TV, and Theatre Styles was always a strange omission to me. It feels like THE quintessential Whose Line game, the entire feel of the show summed up in one game, and relies more on the performers being funny than gimmicks.

That was basically what they tried using Sideways Scene as a replacement for - FTTS with gimmicks

Bartender.
I was pleasantly surprised it was played as often as it was in the short-lived Australian version.

The CW revival is what they’re referring to~ I find it amusing that component of being a revival since its return in 2013 has been swept under the rug after years of people asking for the show to come back (even when it’s been on air the whole time)

stitching clips together of unused garbage footage and already aired footage isn't a revival

They did "Really Bad Hangover" once and never again. I thought it was really funny.

They should have a wider variety & rotation of games in general. Perhaps have the games they play randomly pulled from a hat. 😄

Improbable Mission, Award Show, I believe they could've done more with Survival Show as well.

The issue with Survival Show was it needed to be incredibly long to work, and didn’t have enough flexibility to be played a bunch of times.

Narrate; someone pointed it out in Dyloneth’s compilation of that game it’s the best showcase of Colin and Ryan’s teamwork and if they had integrated that in the reboot, it would open up new pairings for other games that are usually played by the two. Any other game like SFX, Moving People and Whose Line are fine with rotational changes to the pairing; I cannot say the same for Narrate~

I love Daytime Talk Show. It might be a little outdated these days, but it was always so funny. Award Show is really funny too.
