It's sad that they've run this game into the ground in the current seasons when they're clearly never gonna match this no matter how hard they try. It should have been retired at this point.

Who was the funniest member of Whose Line Is It Anyway?
- Thread starter Baphomet
- Start date
Colin is the best overall one because he's so goofy and is just a funny guy all around.
Ryan is the best prop guy.
Wayne is almost... too good? Like, he's so refined at improv, that it's less funny, if that makes any sense.
Greg is also funny but is more hit or miss for me.

Colin is an improv virtuoso. He knows when the game calls for serious improv and when corpsing will bring the most laughs. Him and Ryan should be lumped together because they're chemistry is excellent.
wayne's gift is relating to crowds and people. he's funny but not as funny as colin or ryan with the quickness.
but they make a good team, he can grease the crowds up for the humor with his engagement, and colin and ryan run in with the quiet quirkiness and humor.

Colin is hilarious but I think Ryan is my favorite. My favorite parts were always when Ryan and Collin did an infomercial.
This is a pretty good rundown.
Also, if you want to hear Greg Proops doing what he does best re: improvisational comedy, his podcast is fucking amazing, and really a clear demonstration of his absolutely brilliant ability to extemporate at length about literally anything. I can only take a couple episodes here and there, because its honestly exhausting being in his headspace too often.
It's Ryan. Collin was always good about holding it together to keep a game running, but Ryan usually comes out with the best jokes or bits in any given game. He also usually won when it came to making jokes at the others expense.
Wayne is probably the most talented overall, and several of the games on the show only work because he is on the cast. Also his Chapelle bit is probably the funniest thing any of them have done.

Very hard to choose between Ryan and Colin. Them ribbing each other about baldness and large nose is hilarious, remember this one thing (wasn't in Whose Line but them anyway) where Ryan basically breaks character after Colin's nose joke.
EDIT oh, wait, it is in this clip https://youtu.be/C2XASSGxgWI?t=284

Colin Mochrie > Ryan Stiles > Greg Proops for me. Wayne's up there too.
As most everyone has said, Colin & Ryan's dynamic was unmatched.

Colin and Ryan together, specifically. They played off each other fabulously. They cannot be beat.
This episode was transcendent. It is worth watching for the audience and Drew's reactions alone.

Ryan but Colin is a very very close 2nd.
Side note: I watch the new version from time to time and while I still chuckle now and then, its nowhere near as good as the OG British and American ones.
I don't know....something feels off.

Damn this thread, started watching clips of the show from youtube.
Laughing too much hurts.
The best damn thing in the show are Colin's and Ryan's animal imitations...

It's Colin, and it's not close, even if I love every other member too.
Also special shoutout to Heather Anne Campbell who, while I'm not sure is here on ERA, was a member of this community back at the old place. Always thought it was cool seeing someone I recognized as a gaming editor going toe-to-toe with Colin, Ryan, and Wayne.

As it happens I just watched a Stephen Fry episode on Amazon Prime the other day, I loved his lack of even an attempt to sing in the musical game.
It's a toss up between Colin and Ryan, so both
Also there's lots of clips of it on youtube but this show was hilarious and had all of them and I only found out about it one night bored out of my mind, Jeff B. Davis is hilarious and never got as much air time on Whose Line
Colin was my favorite. Ryan was very good as well, but I feel like he made it too obvious when he was trying to push the envelope for what the show would air. Colin always seemed more subtle in that regard... maybe it was just the delivery, I dunno
He was on every episode of the original radio series. Thought he was a bit rubbish, especially compared to John Sessions.
He's reappeared recently and looks like a grand old dame kind of bloke, and I'm so happy to see him.
Part of why I think Wayne is such a good game show/talk show host.
