A new improv comedy show hosted by comedian Drew Carey, the show is a gathering of ''WhoseLineIsItAnyway'' veterans and fresh faces, as well as new guest stars. The format has changed somewhat, as Carey is not the solitary host and others take turns explaining the games. The setting is at the MGM Grand theatre in [[VivaLasVegas Las Vegas]] instead of a sound stage in Hollywood, which gives it more of a traditional stage improv feel.

** In one game of ''New Choice'', in one of those huge sections where Jonathan says "new choice" [[OverlyLongGag over and over again]] until they say something he enjoys, Ryan says to Greg "I want you to wear this" which is then replaced by a new choice. Later in the game, Greg is caught in a stream of new choices of his own, one of which is "I'm wearing it."

**The first time around, Drew says:

-->'''Drew:''' I'll walk back!\\
'''Jonathan:''' Oh!\\
'''Drew:''' Oh, I forgot my mop!\\
'''Jonathan:''' What! ...?

* [[CreativeClosingCredits Creative Opening Credits]] The cast members have their names on assorted signs, cards, game machines etc. throughout the resort. It's done alphabetically, so if you're alert, you can tell who will be featured. [[StealthPun Drew's face is quite appropriately on a Joker, as is Bob Derkach on the nametag of a dealer,]] but you'd think putting Chip's name on gambling chips would be an obvious one...
