Call ISE-style PowerShell from console?

In PowerShell, when one uses Out-Gridview while running from the console in powershell.exe, it displays a new forms-style window. When running scripts in PowerShell ISE that call things like Write-Progress, they render rather differently in a new window with Windows graphical elements rather than with their usual console displays.

Is it possible to call cmdlets like Write-Progress in the console and get them to open ISE-style displays anyway like Out-Gridview always does? Ultimately, I'd like to be able to benefit from the free UI elements meant for ISE without having to go manually create form objects, etc.

Write-Progress adapts its output for the host it's running in. AFAICT it's not possible to change that behavior.
