LOL: Last One Laughing Ireland

If you have watched any last one laughing you would know that the comedians get desperate very very quickly, which leads to them doing horrible or stupidly simple but funny things. This is what makes the show so funny. A lot of the bits are very funny and there is a lot of Irish humour and references in it. There are more bits done by the show than the other last one laughings which did take away from some bits that comedians were doing but I thought it added an air of "what is happening" to it. If you like any of the comedians (except Mcsavage, who struggles a lot) it's a perfect watch. One of the funnier ones from this type of shows, probably because I'm Irish. Very absurd and silly, some people need to learn how to laugh at stupid things, a lot of the reviews are stuck up comedy snobs who only accept a joke if it has 15 satirical layers. It's low brow mixed with some smart jokes, because the basics are what make comedians laugh. What did you expect to happen when comedians don't get a laugh for 6 hours?

If I was to say what was bad is that some comedians are a bit awkward with them trying too hard or making very desperate jokes and it's a little bit cringy to watch, but it's minor.

Graham is a pretty good host, the production of the show is very high, and I found it very funny. I think most Irish people with a sense of humour would find it funny. Don't watch it if silly, stupid and dirty humour isn't your thing. But if it is, you'll have a blast.

I only managed about three quarters of the first episode but can confidently say is the least funny thing of any genre I've ever seen. They didn't just resort to doing clown bits, that was their go to. Yes, actual clown bits, like 1950s circus tent mini bike clown bits. It was painful, and not in the fun, cringe-comedy way, just painful cringe.

This show reeks of theatre kids without a funny bone in their body networking their way up the ladder and this mess is the result.

The only relief from the pain was the guy doing puns, they were slightly amusing.

Surely Ireland has better talent out there.

As a big fan of the original japanese show "documental" I had often wondered how good it will be with top english speaking comedians who are often seen ebing so quick witted. Today I bit the bullet and binge watching LOL: Ireland. As the title suggests I believe I laughed out loud twice and I unlike the contestant/comedians was not under orders not to laugh.

I have to admit even as an English man I only knew half of the comedians and some of them I genuinely find funny in other shows but my god some of the performances were so embarrising. Now honestly the way these shows work best is usually the human side of people breaking/forgetting themselves and being caught off guard as it's rarely an actually skit or performance that gets them but a random comment but that was also absent.

I will say that this is a great concept but like the original show often falls into desperate choas which ultimately becomes unfunny. We see these comedians errupt into laughter on panels shows with thier fellow comedians and so expect a back and forth with quality punchlines. I can't help but feel like "stand up" is strictly prohibited as it just becomes silly, childish costumes and "jokes" that wouldn't make an actual child laugh, like the original as the show goes on, material becomes weaker and more desperate as it decends into choas of noise, random outbursts and starts to look like what I persume a nut house would look like.

Comedy like art is subjective and so you may like this you may not, but I'm not convinced from multiple hours of vieweing that most the people in thie show are actually comedians.

I love the comedians. They are all so funny and they all actually participate. However Graham Norton is way too strict as the judge on the smiling rule; if someone is smiling due to their own fun and not laughing at all, then it shouldn't count! It's Last One Laughing not Last One Smiling. Someone was smiling to themselves while playing with something, another smiled as part of a bit, I think someone smiled politely when meeting someone, etc. They were not laughing in any of those scenereos. Change up the judge, or whoever is actually judging, and I think you'd have another 10/10 comedy show. Love to see more LOLs regardless.

Dire, truly embarrassingly awful. Can't blame the format it's the comedians. If these are the best comedians Ireland can come up with and this is their best material then I despair! I know there are better Irish comedians than this. Savage thought putting food in his pockets and eating from them was the height of hilarity. Another female comedian who's material seems to be based solely on the fact she's a lesbian kept having to tell us she was as her material was so poor. Another clown had a puppet speaking in a french accent with jokes so poor a six year old wouldn't laugh and then Jason who put on a big nose mask for laughs! God help us.
