So, I am trying to watch a Whose Line Is It Anyway video but I get this instead:

This video contains content from WBTV, who has blocked it on copyright grounds.

Sorry about that.

I have no idea what this means.

Blocked because of copyright grounds?

What does that mean?
It means that somebody who does not own the rights to that video, or a part of that video, has uploaded it anyway. The rights holder has then decided, as a consequence, to block it from showing in certain countries. There are other options for the legal owner of the content, but in this case, for your country, they just chose to block it.

Ah. I see it now.

Okay. Thank you.[DOUBLEPOST=1455666510,1455620520][/DOUBLEPOST]The good news is that I have the video saved to my computer before it got blocked on copyright grounds.

maybe you should try finding what the appropriate source for watching Whose Line Is It Anyway, since it seems youtube is not the place.

Youtube isn't a place to watch actual tv shows and movies (unless it's the actual owners, which in that case you pay for it). Sooner or later Youtube or the companies that own it find those videos uploaded by random idiots and takes them down, blocks them or mutes them.

Welp. Guess I should start using YouTube less and less now.
