So through Facebook I just got word that there will be no season two of Drew Carey's Improvaganza. Are you kidding me GSN, that was the best show you had. This is a petition to all those who want a second season. Post support and messages and lets try to get this to happen.
If GSN wants an awesome improv show hosted by Drew Carey, they will find a way to get a hold of reruns of Whose Line. I'm not sure what exactly makes Improvaganza boring, since it's pretty much Whose Line reincarnated, but most of it falls flat.
I know what makes Improv. boring--Drew Carey. He makes every show he's on boring.
I didn't mind GSN used Carey as part of the counter programming we see from GSN. But the show is just lousy. Maybe the idea was correct, but the choice /style of the show left much to be desired. It felt like a party where few people have anything in common.Then you get a few people who try to liven up the party. Problem is, the peole at that party don't want to be there because they don't fit in. Becomes a boring waste. So, while you might laugh a bit and be polite, you can't wait to get out of there.....thus the Carey improv.
Sort of like having Carnie do a reality show.....yeah, that's the ticket.
Ummmmm.......you DO know what GSN stands for, right? And last time I checked it doesn't fit that name. If you seriously would like for it to come back, I highly suggest contacting Comedy Central.Originally Posted by intel247
I WANT A SECOND SEASON!! its such a funny show, I could literally watch it all day. I want it to happen!
This network would die if Improv was on alot. Its good they're getting rid of it because, the ratings are bad as heck. It's scored 200K viewers before but really, its not good enough. Usually I think it does 100K.
This is a Game Show Network, really. Comedy Central and TBS are the comedy networks but, mainly Comedy Central would be a place for a show like Improv-A-Ganza.
NO - Improv-a-Ganza was NOT a good show. OK sometimes there was a funny moment, but in general it was very boring
1. The acts dragged out too long
2. Too many commercials / not enough games
3. Too many improvisers on each episode, it was better with only 4 on stage for the episode on Whose Line.
I love Whose Line, and never get tired of those episodes so I'd much rather watch reruns of that.
Improv-a-Ganza was one of my favorite shows! Me and my mother-in-law watched it TOGETHER! That right there tells you it has to be a great show! I want a second season!!!
Agreed. Could not have said it better than that.
Yeah I can't get on this bandwagon, I'm afraid. I love Drew, but was really disappointed in the show.

He certainly doesn't make TPIR boring that's for sure. He's way better than Bob Barker was, IMO.
As for a second season of Improv-A-Ganza, needless to say, I voted no. Power Of 10 belongs on GSN, but not Improv.
Okay, I am going to jump in here on this show, I found it funny, BUT (there is always a but) even though I found it funny, I voted no. This show does not belong on gsn. It is not a game, but a comedy show. Love Triangle wasn't a game either, nor for that matter Baggage is not a game show either. I watch gsn for the games, and with 200+ channels there isn't anything on. I like the game shows, because my husband and I both like to play along with them.
Let us have more game shows.
To be honest, people would disagree about Baggage not being a game show. I agree with you though. The Newlywed Game though is sort of a game show. I just thought I'd bring that up while we're on the subject. Someone brought up a description of Baggage for why it's a game show, it goes something like "People win a date..." something like that. I find that rather stupid. There's no cash involved, or trips I don't think. A game show to me either involves trips or cash.
Love Triangle is not a game show for sure.
As for Improv-A-Ganza, It wasn't that funny to me as I have said. The singing stuff wasn't very funny. I prefer Who's Line? over this bomb.
I enjoyed Drew on Whose Line, but he just didn't do anything for me on Improv. I've said it in the past during discussions about this show, but it just dragged out way too long, and rather than having several 2-3 minute improv skits, they would have 5-6 minutes of the same type each episode, and even the performers looked like they were struggling to drag on their skit or song for 6 minutes. The show is funny in small doses, but gets dull, fast.
As for Drew on TPIR, he's still no Bob Barker, and even the French host on the new Quebec version seems to have more life in him. Drew is certainly better than he was when he first started, but I still scream at the TV when I see him miss an opportunity at a good joke, or when a contestant needs consoling, or congratulating. His style is to get the show done, and keep to a strict schedule. Perhaps not entirely his fault, but Bob made it look like the show wasn't rushed, and that he sounded like he genuinely cared about the contestant's feelings. Drew still likes to mumble comments to himself, which doesn't come across effectively on TV. I could continue to say more, but this is a topic about the recent "lemons" getting the boot.
