Hey we just started a Whose Line type of game called Questions Only. How about we start something kind of like that that covers the inprov (sp?) part of the show? Here's an example:
Host wrote: You will act out the scene from Living With a Hernia where Al goes and sees Dr. Jones only Al will be a pop singer and Dr. Jones will be Cartman from South Park
And two people could act it out inprov (sp?) style just like they do on Whose Line is it Anyways. There would be different types of games, not just substitution of characters but I just wanted to give you the basic idea. Anyone think this is a good idea? ききます

How would you act out a scene like that on a Forum though? Just use text and descriptions of what's going on? We can try it, I'm all for WLIIA games! I was thinking of starting a "Scenes from a Poodle Hat" topic myself! :cool:

Well, you could change the phrasing to say what the people that you're supposed to be acting as would say as we've been doing in the Albuquerque topic for the doughnut scene. I think Scenes From Poodle Hat might be a bit too small of a catergorie if you're doing it in Polls and Games but that would be perfect for Fan Creativity [Enter] Should I just go ahead and start this topic? ききます

Since there are so many Whose Line inspired games lately, I came up with a way to do the Dating Game from Whose Line.

Either I would PM three volunteers or they would each PM me with a character from a Weird Al song, video, or UHF. They would then pretend to play this character on a dating show, and one person would ask them questions and after a while, try to guess who they are.

Should we try it?

Why don't you try it in the Weird Al Improv thread.

Okay, I'm going to be in Weird Al Survior season 2 - but after that, I have a proposal, but only if there's enough interest.

Would anyone be interested in doing a Weird Al "Mole"?
(If you havnt seen The Mole, a bunch of people try to win tasks given to them. However, one of the contestants is "The Mole", who tries to sabotage the tasks! At the end of each round players take a quiz on who they think the mole is - and the player with the lowest score is "executed")
Of course, all the tasks would be Al related.

So, anyone interested?

I had actually thought of doing that a couple weeks ago, but I didn't feel like starting it at the time. It could be a good idea!

That sounds fun!

We need to find ways to make all of the reality shows into Al games.

*The Bachelor (don't know)
*Big Brother (crappy challenges, and head of household and stuff)
*American Idol (all our parodists competing for our votes)
*The Joe Schmo Show (I have an idea...but I won't say anything yet ;) )

Tonight's lineup is Mad Genius, iisryan, and weirdojace. Tomorrow's lineup is Mad Genius, iisryan, and weirdojace. The next day's lineup is Mad Genius, iisryan, and weirdojace. Sure that would be fun for us but I think we need a few more parodists around here.

How about Fear Factor? That would be fun if we could relate it to Al.
