Colin Mochrie at Banff World TV Festival 2008

I asked Colin to give us his best, or worst, award show story ever. We were back stage prior to his hosting duties at the luncheon award show (a task he was, well, not that thrilled to be doing.) He is a charming, and funny, man.

@SoleSoulility Who? Ryan and Colin? No, they met through a mutual friend who made Colin go see Ryan's standup at some sleazy bar.

@Ashatokka Um, they met when he was auditioning for a show

i love collin mochrie he seems to be a very down to earth person who is shy when not on camera but funny as heck when he is. On the show you can tell he is a gentlemen with the ladies. He doesn't touch females in the wrong way he gives them respect and that is what i love about collin mochrie

@jellytotpot yes, actually on the usa whose line, there's an episode when ryan says to colin "we work together for 20 years and you can't kiss me?" and at the time they were both around 40 years old, so, they met as adults, but was not that late

FCK HOW EVER MISTREATED COLIN

[jellytotpot]

@Randomskee I know you wrote this over a year ago but just thought you might like to know it wasn't Ryan...Colin did say the guys name on an interview (can't remember the name or interview though). ALSO Ryan and Colin became friends out of high school (when they were adults, unlike some people think) when they were both working as comedians.

[Ashatokka]

No, they both met when they were out of high school.

Poor Colin and Deb. :(

[xbeckaiix]

i canat believe you got to interview colin.. im so jealous

[Randomskee]

hmmm all this talk of ryan and colins friendship since they were friends got me wondering. the friend who dared colin to join a play in school and got him hooked onto improv-could it have been ryan?(colin never mentions names, he just says "friend" ; ) )
