Drew Carey’s Green Screen Show
Drew Carey’s Green Screen Show is an improvisational comedy television series that aired in the fall of 2004 on The WB Television Network, and the fall of 2005 on Comedy Central. The show was hosted by Drew Carey, and was somewhat a follow-up to the show he formerly hosted, Whose Line Is It Anyway?. The distinguishing feature of the show was that the improv games were performed in front of a “green screen”, with animation, music and sound effects inserted in post-production. The show was otherwise very similar to Whose Line? and featured many of the same performers and games.
On an appearance on Late Night with Conan O’Brien when “Green Screen” premiered, Carey claimed that he got the idea during the Whose Line? game “Moving people” when he thought how funny it would be if you could not see the people manipulating the players.
The show’s theme song was La Trampa, performed by Tonino Carotone and Manu Chao and the show’s underscore was composed by Michael A. Levine.

Whose Line Is It Anyway?
Whose Line is it Anyway? is a short-form improvisational comedy TV show. Originally a British radio programme, it moved to television in 1988 as a series made for the UK’s Channel 4, for a ten-series run.
The show consists of a panel of four performers who create characters, scenes and songs on the spot, in the style of short-form improvisation games, many taken from theatresports. Topics for the games are based on either audience suggestions or predetermined prompts from the host. Both the British and the American shows ostensibly take the form of a game show with the host arbitrarily assigning points and likewise choosing a winner at the end of each episode. However, the show lacks the true stakes and competition of a game show. The “game show” format is simply part of the comedy.
Following the conclusion of the British run in 1998, ABC began airing an American version. The CW brought the series back in 2013.
