Joker

Stealing ideas is a common practice in Iran, and here another stolen idea turned into a TV show with terrible production and performance.

The Original show is called LoL: The last Laughing.

Since Iran doesn't respect copyrights and you can hardly find natural creativity and talent in the country, they have stolen this idea and produced everything precisely the way the original show did.

This is not the first time, and it will not be the last time. There are plenty of movies and shows that Iranian writers have stolen, and producers and directors have copied with even zero difference from the original.

For those who believe that this is a copy program, I must say that first of all, there are many movies and programs in the world that are copies, and in some cases, it has been observed that many copies of copies are copies. The original is better, so it can not be said that the creator of this program is the only one who copied it. Secondly, many believe that this program is much better and more acceptable than the original version.

Not funny in any aspect, just attracting clueless viewers because of some good-for-nothing celebrities appearance in a dumb pointless competition. It is good for low class and low educated Iranian, I wouldn't watch it even for free. To put it in Rick Sanchez's words: "Its a joyless cash grab"

The whole procedure is fake and scripted. The actors were told when to laugh and what to laugh about and how to laugh. You can tell from the beginning who is going to win the show. The procedure of giving cards is obviously planned. First every actor gets a yellow card and then they begin eliminating participants one by one. How is that going to happen in a real situation? The jokes are dumb and when you see they are "holding themselves from laughing" you can tell how fake and stupid this is. It's not worth watching at all. It's a shame how a great idea like this can turn into this garbage. Bad implementation.

You will laugh yourself silly watching this show.

Pros: Joker is the Iranian version of Documental, a Japanese game show that has inspired many similar shows around the world, such as LOL: Last One Laughing. However, the jokes are original, the rules are slightly changed, the zombie challenges are creative, the laughs are real, and the performances are unique.

Cons: The transitions between commentary clips are too frequent. They interrupt every funny moment with snippets of players discussing what is about to happen, ruining the moment. I want to SEE what's going on, man!

Also, those who gave this a 1/10, claiming it's a "stolen idea" might have been living under a rock for the past 30 years. It's like dumping on Family Guy for being similar to The Simpsons or blaming Friends (or any sitcom ever) for how similar it is to Seinfeld! In general, I think "Joker" is the funniest variation of this game show I've ever seen.
