  • Second episode of the improv show hosted by Paul Merton. The contestants are Clive Anderson, Sally Lindsay, Hamish Blake, and Michael McIntyre. 2/5
    Seeing Clive in casual clothing is kind of odd. (Not as odd as the costume they made him wear later in the episode, though.)

    What i find amusing about this show is that not only must the contestant know how to improvise, the actors in the scene also must both know how to improvise and try not to laugh during the whole procedure.

  • @dunbar9finger
    @dunbar9finger 10 ปีที่แล้ว +259

    One frustration I have with watching TGYH is that the way they have the show structured, it violates one of the cardinal rules of making good improv: Never try to "deny" the things your fellow performers inserted into the scene with their words. Always accept what the other actor said and build on top of it, or if you have to deny it, deny it in a way that actually inserts a funny twist on it, but never just say "no you're wrong, it's really like this instead". But because all the performers except the 'victim' have scripted events they have to hit during the scene, they keep telling the performer that they're wrong if something is invented that will get in the way of the scripted events to come. One example of this is the question with a hardcoded answer. They ask the performer a question like "why did you miss work yesterday?", and whatever the performer comes up with is utterly irrelevant to the scene because they then say, "no that's not true, it's actually that you were in jail...."

    • @marineboy64
      @marineboy64 10 ปีที่แล้ว +51

      That's because this is a game show, not real improv. The whole point of this show is to let the guest score with jokes and funny remarks, not create an interesting or well developed scene. That's just what the show is. Not saying you're wrong or I disagree with you, I would love to see a show that does improv proper.

    • @dunbar9finger
      @dunbar9finger 10 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      It's not a game show. The "contestants" are paid professional celebrities and the "winner" is picked arbitrarily, like in Whose Line is it Anyway. And I agree that the point of the show is to be funny but it's funnier when you have to build on what the other performer said rather than deny it and ignore it.

    • @THOOODAI
      @THOOODAI 9 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Yeah but you have to remember that this is for TV. If they didn't have that structure as security you really don't know where the scenes would end up. I understand that that is the whole point of improv, but in a TV setting it's unpredictable and could make for some awkward scenes.

    • @popnfreshz
      @popnfreshz 9 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      You also have to remember that not everyone they bring on the show is necessarily good at improv. I didnt watch the english version but in the Australian one lots of the people the brought in were celebrities or talkshow hosts or actors, not people who necessarily specialiase in improv.

    • @dunbar9finger
      @dunbar9finger 9 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      popnfreshz It's not the skill of the 'guest' at doing improv that matters for what I'm talking about, though. It's the skill of the regular repeat cast members, who presumably *are* improv performers. I'm not referring to the guest's inability to come up with an answer. I'm referring to the regular cast's apparent inability to *accept* the guest's answer and do something on top of it. It's the regulars' constant denying of the guest performer's clever ideas that gets a bit frustrating.
