Whose Line Is It Anyway?: Chip Esten
Overview
Weird Newscasters: Colin is the anchor... Chip is the co-anchor and the ""lion from the Wizard of Oz who was given an overactive libido instead of courage"". Wayne is on sports and is a ""desparate caveman looking for food, a warm cave and a mate"". Ryan does the weather and ""becomes extremely nervous when he suddenly discovers it's the first day of Ryan hunting season"". Song Styles: Chip and Wayne sing a gospel style song to Mira the Hebrew teacher. Whose Line: Buffy the vampire slayer (Colin) has come to kill Count Dracula (Ryan). Greatest Hits: The Songs of Rome. Irish Drinking Song: All about falling out of a car on a date. There is no winner... it's a four-way tie... so they all read the credits as trash-talking basketball players.
