"Drew Carey's Green Screen Show" premiered on The WB network on October 7, 2004. Along with the show's debut, Drew participated in a number of promotional appearances such as guest hosting "The Late Late Show" on CBS, visiting "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on NBC, and starring in a special episode of "Blue Collar TV," The WB's lead-in for "Green Screen." The promising series aired for 5 weeks, but on November 8, The WB announced it was temporarily pulling "Drew Carey's Green Screen Show" from its schedule for November

sweeps after it averaged 2.7 million viewers per week. In a news article, it was reported that the show would "remain in production" and was "expected to return in a new time period later this season." Due to its tough Thursday night time slot (up against CBS's "Survivor," NBC's "Will & Grace," FOX's "The OC"), the new series didn't have a fair chance at gaining a loyal audience. Fans waited through the entire 2004-2005 season for The WB to deliver their promise of new episodes... but it never happened. They finally confirmed it as canceled in May 2005 at their 2005-06 fall presentation. As a result, Drew Carey and executive producer Ron Diamond, took the show to another network. Starting September 26, 2005, Comedy Central began airing brand new "Green Screen" episodes. The show stopped airing on the cable channel in January 2006 and, unfortunately, is not expected to return.

PRODUCTION PROCESS:

After filming nearly 20 hours of improv games in front of the green screen, 4 and a half hours of footage will actually be used to make up the first 13 episodes. Then, according to Robert Morton, that will all be sent out to about 50 animation studios all over the world to put on the animations and finishing touches. The whole process takes about 12 weeks.
