The still hilarious Whose Line is it Anyway returned big last night, with The CW's best performance in its time period in total viewers since 11/18/09, and best A18-34 and A18-49 ratings (1.1/4) since 2/1/11. It was #2 in The Hour among A18-34, behind only the MLB All-Star Game.

Whose Line was also the network's best unscripted premiere among A18-34 since 1/2009, and the network's most watched unscripted series premiere since 3/2007.

Whose Line delivered The CW's best series premiere ratings in A18-34 since Sept. 2011 (1.2/4) and the network's second most watched (2.9M) series premiere since Sept. 2011, behind only ARROW.

Hosted by comedian Aisha Tyler, WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY??? will also feature the return of cast members Ryan Stiles, Wayne Brady and Colin Mochrie, who along with a special guest each episode, must put their comedic skills to the test through a series of spontaneous improv games,prompted only by random ideas supplied by the studio audience. Based on the wildly successful U.K. format, which also spawned a previous incarnation in the US that ran for eight seasons on ABC, WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY??? is executive produced by Dan Patterson, Mark Leveson, Jimmy Mulville, Ryan Stiles and Wayne Brady. Co-created by Dan Patterson and Mark Leveson, WHOSE LINE IS IT ANYWAY??? is from Angst Productions and Hat Trick Productions.
