Colin, Wayne, and Ryan will have to stay on their toes. The CW has renewed the Whose Line Is It Anyway? TV show for an 11th season. This will be the show’s 19th season overall, including the eight seasons on ABC and ABC Family.
A long-running comedy improv series, the Whose Line Is It Anyway? TV show is hosted by Aisha Tyler and each episode typically features Ryan Stiles, Wayne Brady, Colin Mochrie, and a guest performer. The foursome tests their comedic reflexes by participating in a series of spontaneous improv games. After each round, Tyler doles out points to the performers and she then declares a winner at the end of every episode (not that the points matter). Guests in season 18 (the 10th on The CW) include Jeff Davis, Keegan-Michael Key, Nyima Funk, Greg Proops, Heather Anne Campbell, Kevin McHale, and Laila Ali.
Airing on Saturday nights, the 18th season of Whose Line Is It Anyway? averages a 0.08 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 584,000 viewers. Compared to season 17, that’s down by 47% in the demo and down by 32% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM).
Just 10 new episodes have aired so far this season and it appears that The CW may be holding back some installments in preparation for 2022-23. The network has announced that two original episodes of Whose Line will be airing each Friday night this fall. The series will be paired with Penn & Teller: Fool Us.
What do you think? Do you enjoy the Whose Line Is It Anyway? TV show on The CW? Will you be watching the 19th season on Friday nights?
This is absolutely the funniest show EVER on TV. I wish they would broaden the variety of games. They seem to be stuck on just a few.
Love whose line is it anyway. Never watch penn and teller. Don’t cancel whose line!
Absolutely love this show. Best thing on TV these days. It’s funny for the actors and the audience. Keep it going.
I wish they had the act with the questions, when two actors come together.
I love the show! Goes by too fast!! Very fun and creative.
Love this show, it always provides gut busting laughter.
I’ve always loved watching whose line, though I’ve been watching it either streaming or off the on-demand. They have almost all the seasons on HBOMax, & I’ve repeatedly watched them.
This show and cast are AWESOME!! I’ve been a fan for the past 18 years. I constantly watch reruns, and hope & pray that they never stop!! This cast & (guests) are by far the funniest comedians on TV today! They can treat any subject as funny with no upset “wokesters” ruining the fun. We all need to keep life in perspective and be able to laugh at ourselves, as it is too short to be a grump, lol!!!
Love this show! Some games I find funnier than others but I have at least a few good belly laughs in every show. Looking forward to new shows – I have watched some reruns more times than I want to admit.
Thank you sooooo much for renewing Whose Line is it Anyway? Best news! I’m obsessed with all the reruns and watching YouTube clips so I can’t wait for new episodes!!
Me too we need fun comedy that you can watch with the whole family! I hope they do more than 10 new epusodes
