“LOL” or “Last One Laughing” is the ultimate comedic battle where laughter is the enemy! This Amazon Original reality show brings together 10 of the funniest comedians in a high-stakes challenge that will put their skills and poker faces to the ultimate test.

Picture this: a room filled with comedic brilliance, where laughter is strictly forbidden. The comedians must go head-to-head, armed with their wits, jokes, and impeccable timing as they strive to make each other crack up, all while maintaining a stone-cold poker face themselves.
