Whose Line Is It Anyway? (2013–2024)
3/10
Aisha Tyler is ruining the show.
14 May 2016
I tried to give the reboot a chance, I really did. But I'm sorry, I cannot watch this show with Aisha Tyler as the host. It is NOT the same show. The show does not flow smoothly whatsoever and the flow is controlled by the host. We all loved to joke about how Drew did nothing on the old version of WLIIA, but that's what he did. He did nothing. He didn't get in the way, he pressed the buzzer at the right time on scenes, and joked about how useless he was. So he didn't do nothing, but he acted in such a way that made you not even notice him, but was always excellent when he was needed. That's a good host.

Aisha gets in the way. She presses the buzzer way too late and lets scenes drag on almost every time to the point where the scene goes from hilarious to funny to just awkward, which is a big deal. It's like if every scene in game of thrones was 20 seconds longer and the actors had to fill up time talking about the weather that day in Westeros. Ruins the entire atmosphere, takes me out of the scene.

The way she speaks sounds like fake enthusiasm and makes me feel like she doesn't want to be there. She also doesn't have ANY real chemistry with anyone on the show and really makes it feel like the atmosphere is tense all the time.

WLIIA is the type of show that absolutely requires a laid-back feeling, and Aisha robs that of the show. They need to replace her. Don't care if it would be awkward, out of place, or whatever, PLEASE get a host that the crew can make fun of and vice versa without all of this awkward tension.

I say all of this as a WLIIA fan and someone who really likes Aisha Tyler. Take her off this show, she's ruining it.
