This was one funny show!

I watched this show when it was replayed on Showtime and it was the funniest thing I have seen. The best thing was at the end when Brad announced the world's most dangerous improv game. The players had to walk across the stage in bare feet and not step on the mousetraps. It was so funny when Bard said "Bare Feet!" I think if they wanted to make it funny, they should have used cream pies instead of mousetraps and still had them walk in their bare feet and step in the pies. It would have been enjoyable to see Drew and the other guys bare feet covered in messy pie. All in all, this was a good show.
