The 8:00 one was new, it just had bad guide data. Like when Simpsons or South Park or any other show has bad guide data and it shows the original series date.

My ABC affiliate ended up showing the episodes at 3am. Don't know what was up with that.

Wow. Comcast actually got it right. The guide data (from them, not TiVo) said it was the U.S. version from 2004. I still can't believe it... Comcast got something right.... I'm in shock....

Yes, that's exactly what happened.

All I ended up with was the Simmons ep last week as well. Of course, we laughed pretty damn hard at it again. That ep was just as hilarious as the first time we watched it.

ABC's Whose Line page shows this week's episodes as presumably being new at 8:00 and a repeat at 8:30. Well, it says the OAD for the 8:30 as 6/27/03 and doesn't mention one for the 8:00 ep. I imagine that will be the pattern every week... anyone know how long this is supposed to run?

I had given up on the show coming back when they announced that the Drew Carey show was coming back but said nothing about WLIIA. Although it sounds like it didn't really matter that I had canceled my SP.

Btw, the 1995 OAD would not cause the show not to be picked up by a FRO SP. In fact, the generic guide data, which is usually why the OAD of the series is shown, will actually make an FRO SP pick up a repeat. As others have said, it must have been some other piece of data that caused the problem.

Supposedly until all the unaired episodes are gone. Looks like they're doing the same thing with whose line, as they are with the Drew Carey show.

I went (or got dragged to, altho ended up having fun) to Atlantic City Saturday, and when I was going on the Expressway thing, one of the billboards said

Whose Line is it Anyway, a night with Greg Proops, Brad Sherwood, and Colin Mochrie July 16-17 Caesar's

Ideas?

Most of the people that performed on whose line the tv show, are traveling to various cities doing improv. More info at Colin's site,

It definetly was new, they mentioned in some on-air graphic that it was new as well.

Funniest joke was "Scenes from a Hat" and the category, "Things Drew Whispers In His Date's Ear At the end of dinnner" (or something like that):

Ryan Stiles whispers, "Keep the change."

My folks took me to see Brad & Colin's Fort Worth performance two weeks ago (No Greg Proops, though). It's definitely worth the price of admission. Brad and Colin are really, really funny in person, and had I paid the $50 ticket price, I would have felt like I got more than my money's worth.

FWIW, guide data henceforth - at least here - seems to pick out just the right episodes as First Run.
