Improv Game Show
VHS
C+
Despite the presence of Ron West, this comes close to being the best episode of the semi-series. (The Compilation has a good Ryan & Greg game.) Brad, who's a more regular presence in later incarnations of the show, has an amiable, cooperative quality about him, more interested in supporting than grandstanding, and his teamwork with Ryan, especially in the games Whose Line and Props, is solid. (Ryan deservedly gets the big laughs in Props though.) Greg isn't at the top of his form here, but I'm always so glad to see him after sitting through the two previous episodes, I don't really mind. (Plus, Paul Merton could tell you how hard it is to be funny when you're teamed with Ron West.)
