Drew Carey and his comic friends have a clever plan to shake up the concept of live improv comedy. Yes, he'll have his performers act out quirky ideas suggested by an audience ("You're getting married underwater and are attacked by a giant squid."). But, with the aid of green screen, Drew's behind-the-scenes team will animate the skits, creating an actual improvised movie - bringing to life what's really going on inside their vivid imaginations. It promises to be a very fun and lively marriage of improv and animation as only Drew Carey could pull off.

 

Producer Michael Davies (Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?) is taking his acclaimed showmanship into new territory for The WB. His premise: What happens when you mix the reality and game show genres and produce a quiz show presented from the contestant's point of view? Introducing Studio 7, a radical new series that pits seven bright young adults against each other. Seven grueling elimination rounds test their knowledge of pop culture, world events, science, and literature. Only one can win a large cash prize. The catch is that the contestants will also be roommates for one week in one of Manhattan's most luxurious apartments. Blending the rivalry/romance complications of reality programming with the high pressure stakes of Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?, Studio 7 will not only allow viewers to play along, but will give them an intimate perspective on who's competing. Friendships will be forged, passions will ignite, and hopes will be shattered as each of the contestants vies to be the grand champion of Studio 7.
