Ryan Lee Stiles (born April 22, 1959) is a Canadian-American actor, comedian, director, and voice actor whose work is often associated with improvisational comedy. He is best known for his career and co-production work on the American and British versions of Whose Line Is It Anyway? and the role of Lewis Kiniski on The Drew Carey Show. He played Herb Melnick on the CBS comedy Two and a Half Men and was a performer on the show Drew Carey's Improv-A-Ganza.
The youngest of five children, Ryan Stiles was born in Seattle, Washington, to Canadian parents, Irene and Sonny Stiles. He grew up with his mother, a homemaker, and his father, a supervisor at a Vancouver-based Canadian fish processing plant. When he was 10, his family moved to Vancouver, British Columbia. Ryan Stiles attended R.C. Palmer Junior Secondary School and Richmond Senior Secondary in Richmond, British Columbia. Although he was a good student, Stiles has admitted that "being a high-school senior gave [him] too much freedom." He got so carried away with his flexible schedule that at age 17, he quit school a few months shy of graduation.

Colin Andrew Mochrie (/ˈmɒkri/; born November 30, 1957) is a Canadian actor and improvisational comedian of Scottish origin, most famous for his appearances on the British and US versions of television improvization show Whose Line Is It Anyway?.
Colin Mochrie was born in Kilmarnock, Scotland, the oldest of three children. His father was an airline maintenance executive. He was shy as a child, stating that neighbours would have commented that he "watched way too much television." In 1964, his family moved to a French neighbourhood just outside Montreal, Quebec, and five years later moved again to Vancouver, British Columbia. Mochrie attended Killarney Secondary School, where he was a self-proclaimed loner who wanted to become a marine biologist. He was persuaded by a friend to try out for a play entitled The Death and Life of Sneaky Fitch where Mochrie played the role of the undertaker. He was hooked when he got his first laugh, which paved the way for a career in entertainment. After graduating from high school, where he was valedictorian, Mochrie attended the Studio 58 theatre school in Vancouver for four years, where he discovered the art of improvisational comedy.
Drew Allison Carey (born May 23, 1958) is an American animator, actor, comedian, sports executive, and game show host. After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps and making a name for himself in stand-up comedy, Carey eventually gained popularity starring in his own sitcom, The Drew Carey Show, and serving as host of the U.S. version of the improv comedy show Whose Line Is It Anyway?, both of which aired on ABC.
Carey has appeared in several films, television series, music videos, a made-for-television film, and a computer game. He has hosted the television game show The Price Is Right since 2007. He is interested in a variety of sports, has worked as a photographer at U.S. National Team soccer games, is a minority owner of the Major League Soccer team Seattle Sounders FC and a member of the WWE Hall of Fame. Carey has written an autobiography, Dirty Jokes and Beer: Stories of the Unrefined, detailing his early life and television career.
Carey was the youngest of Lewis and Beulah Carey's three sons and raised in the Old Brooklyn neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. When Drew was eight years old, his father died from a brain tumor. He played the cornet and trumpet in the marching band of James Ford Rhodes High School, from which he graduated in 1975.
Wayne Alphonso Brady (born June 2, 1972) is an American actor, singer, voice actor, comedian, and television personality, known for his work as a regular on the American version of the improvisational comedy television series Whose Line Is It Anyway?. He was the host of the daytime talk show The Wayne Brady Show, the original host of Fox's Don't Forget the Lyrics!, and has hosted Let's Make a Deal since its 2009 revival. Brady has been performing in the Tony Award winning play Kinky Boots on Broadway as Simon and as drag queen Lola since November 2015.
Brady was born in Columbus, Georgia to West Indian parents, and moved to Orlando, Florida as a young child to live with his grandmother and aunt. Brady refers to his grandmother, Valerie Petersen, as his "mom," since she raised him. Brady is second cousin to professional footballer Jozy Altidore who currently plays for Toronto FC. At 16, Brady started performing in community theater and at the Orlando improv troupe SAK Comedy Lab, where he first started developing his improv skills. He attended Dr. Phillips High School in Orlando, Florida, where he graduated in 1989. In 1990, he enrolled at the University of Miami. In 1996, he moved to Los Angeles, California, where he continued developing his acting skills.

PENNY:
When our grandmas and our grandpas were just girls and boys,
they seemed to have a lot more fun than we.
Their party clothes were calicoes and homemade corduroys,
and a big event was called a husking bee.
A banjo, and a fiddle, and a big old fashion barn was all the prepartion that they made and
if they tell you otherwise, dismiss it as a yarn, refreshments were confined to lemonade.
Now you may say it's corny, and I guess I must agree, but it was good enough for grandma,
it was good enough for grandpa, and it's good enough for me.
Hoedown, the country's gone hoedown. It's puttin' its toe down,
and kickin' its heel.
Hoedown is really a rare dance, a pioneer square dance but with a new deal.
One, two, swing your partner lightly while you hold her ever so tightly.
Hoedown, and bring your best beau down, we're facin' a showdown and gotta make hay,
'cause hoedowns on its way. Stand in line and do the turkey like a Yankee Doodle Dandy.
TOMMY: When you turkey, do it jerky, that's the trick. Now you're hoein' on down.
CHORUS: Sashay, sashay, sashay around while you're hoein' on down.
PENNY: Form a circle in the middle, everybody allemande.
TOMMY: Boys keep tempo with the fiddle, and your gal in the calico gown.
CHORUS: Ho ho, ho ho, ho hoe on down with your calico gown.
PENNY: do-si-do around, it's very romantic.
CHOURS: Do-si-do
TOMMY: Do-si-do some more and maybe she'll fall
CHORUS: Do do do do hi-ho
BOTH (Penny and Tommy):
Now it's time to do your honors,
then when you've gone through your honors promenade the hall.
CHORUS: Da da da da da da
BOTH:
Hoedown, the countrys gone hoedown.
Its puttin' its toe down, and kickin' its heel.
Hoedown is really a rare dance, a pioneer square dance but with a new deal.
One, two, swing your partner lightly while you hold her ever so tightly.
Ho-ho-hoedown, and bring your best beau down, we're facin' a showdown and gotta make hay.
CHORUS: Hoedown today
BOTH: 'cause hoedowns on its way....
CHORUS: Hoedown and bring you best beau down, we're facin' a showdown we gotta make hay....
ALL:
So hoedown, showdown, the hoe downs on it's way!!
Chin Up! Cheerio! Carry On!
PENNY:
From the dark cafes of Paris, from the streets of Amsterdam,
from the homes of old Vienna to the shores of Uncle Sam,
wherever freedom's hope is true each heart cries out to you.
Don't give up, Tommy Atkins, be a stout fella,
Chin up! Cheerio! Carry on!
Keep a stiff upper lip when you're in
doubt, fella, Chin up! Cheerio! Carry on!
Oh, the sun's sure to smile on your tight little isle,
so hang on to your wits and you'll turn the blitz on Fritz,
there's a whole world behind you shoutin' "stout fella!"
Chin up! Cheerio! Carry on!
BOYS:
Don't give up, Tommy Atkins, be a stout fella,
Chin up! Cheerio! Carry on!
Keep a stiff upper lip when you're in doubt, fella,
Chin up! Cheerio! Carry on!
Oh, the sun's sure to smile on your tight little isle,
so hang on to your wits and you'll turn the blitz on Fritz,
there's a whole world behind you shoutin'
"stout fella!" Chin up! Cheerio! Carry on!
ALL:
Don't give up, Tommy Atkins, be a stout fella,
