It's intelligent most of the time  and hilarious all the time  . Not a lot of smart comedy over here outside of a handful of stand-up comics.

Some other ones worth checking out if you are into the 'quiz' style shows like that:

That linked clip was hilarious. Thanks for that!

That singing stuff was incredibly boring and I'd fast-forward through those bits. The infomercial parts where Colin and Ryan were talking were hilarious, though. |

I hated that. | It *was* improv (notice the amount of times he'd sing "Oh, you know..." "And it's true that..." "And you are..." in an attempt to get a few secs to think of something), but I'm not amused by singing stuff unless it's sarcastic (Flight Of The Concordes). |

Also, going back to Whose Line, next Friday I'll be seeing Paul Merton's Impro chums, featuring Josie Lawrence, Mike McShane and Richard Vranch
