De Lama's

DE LAMA'S (NL) 1) De Lama's (translation: The Llamas) is a Dutch television show made by BNN and first aired on 26 June 2004. It is based on the Channel 4 show Whose Line is it Anyway?. Patrick Lodiers hosts the show, which contains both well-known and more obscure elements of theatresports. The most important of these is improvisation. De Lama's consist of the following comedians: Ruben Nicolai, Tijl Beckand, Ruben van der Meer and Jeroen van Koningsbrugge. Jandino Asporaat, Ad-Just Bouwman, Sara Kroos, Arie Koomen, Kristel Zweers and Martijn Oosterhuis are ex-Lama's. Other than in the British and American series, every episode of De Lama's features a Guest Llama (Gast Lama), a well-known Dutch (or Belgian) person who offers suggestions for games and always joins the regulars for one or two games at the end. At the end of 2006, regulars Sara Kroos and Arie Koomen left the show (the latter later returned for a single episode), leaving it with only three regular performers. To help alleviate this problem, broadcaster BNN organised a televised competition, Lama Gezocht, in order to find a new performer to round out the team. Ad-Just Bouwman eventually won this competition, and joined the Llamas. He, however, is no longer part of the troupe, reportedly because his artistic style didn't fit in with the other Llamas. Another recently 'llamafied' performer, Jandino Asporaat, left at around the same time to focus on his own theatre production, although rumour has it that his style clashed with the remaining three members as well. Jeroen van Koningsbrugge is the only new member to remain with the Llamas until this day. On the 4th of April 2008 The Llama's announced on a Fan day that they are going to quit with the TV-show and the theatre tour. There is going to be one more season on TV and they planned a goodbye tour through The Netherlands (and Belgium). DE LAMA'S (B) 2) De Lama's is ook de vrolijk gestoorde bende rond KLOOT PER W, PETER SLABBYNCK (Red Zebra), LOLLITA LAMA aka MIES MEULDERS en STEVEN DE CORT. Met hun aanstekelijke, Nederlandstalige, ondeugende en zeer grappige, gedurfde rock, punkrock speelden ze het Album "EDELE DELEN" vol, met singles zoals "DE IDEALE PENIS", "BLIJF BINNEN", "ELKE VIERKANTE CENTIMETER" en ander anthems zoals "EIGEN LAMA'S EERST" en fijne covers zoals "HOND" (Now I wanna be your dog, The Stooges) en "WAT DE NEUK" (12xU)...
