I generally liked the British version better, but this is probably one of the funniest clips I've ever seen from this show. [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pG9HNWBU9ms&feature=player_embedded[/YOUTUBE]
I don't know who looks gayer... richard simmons, or ryan stiles in that shirt. they toured this show a few years back with drew carrey and the others, and my brother and sister-in-law saw it... my brother shouted "syphilis so often when asked for topics that they did it just to shut him up.
I love that show!! I watch it every night I can. Sometimes I even sit there and improv with the TV. Watching those guys (and the occasional girl, I especially liked when Kathy Griffin and Whoopi Goldberg were on) was one of the deciding factors in my deciding I wanted to try making a living at comedy.
I think Season 1 is on DVD, as well as a "Best Of" collection. Edit: Yes. Season 1 is split into 2 DVDs, plus the Best Of collection which is 10 episodes
