What was the name of the Fox Family show that starred In Living Color's David Alan Grier and was based on The Who, What, or Where Game?

 The only Fox Family show with David that I remember was "Random Acts of Comedy," but I thought that was more of a "Whose Line..." type show. ..Friday nights c. 2000?

AFAIK, the only show made based on "Who/What/Where" was the Challengers, Dick Clark, syndicated.

Yep...while not technically based on the 3 Ws, I think Iris was referring to the fact that each RAoC skit involved the contestants trying to guess the "who," "what," and "where" involved.

 Which suggests to me that Iris has never seen one or the other show, because they certainly couldn't be any more different.  It's a little like saying Frasier was based on Scooby-Doo because they both have a funny dog in them.

 But as long as the show is "cool", certain posters will rant about it, regardless.
