Improv in the media - There's Something About Movies

For the final game in the show, the guest and the team captain have to recreate a famous scene in a film - the only catch is one of them has the script and the other doesn't so they have to improvise the dialogue in the scene. It is so great to see this improv game as the centre of a comedy show as it is one of the best improv games to play as an improviser. However, saying that, you notice very early which sort of people are good at improv and who finds it difficult.
