LOL: Last One Laughing Australia

The show is a brilliant way to expose us to the Australian comic scene. It is also a great insight into how difficult it is to be a performer and the fine line between one who is performing and one not. Sam Simmons and Ann Edmonds are hilarious as well as everybody else. 10 comedians in a room and each has their different act they have to be funny to each other and to the camera. Great show.

Take 10 comedians put them in a room for 6 hours and see which one can hold back the laughter to win 100,000 Australian dollars! I've watched the first 2 episodes, I don't want to but I need you watch more, I have to find out who wins! Curious but strangely compelling watch!

The first few episodes were interesting, if not funny. I expected this to be funny but quickly realised that it wasn't/wouldn't be only to find it quite interesting to see which varieties of humour were able to trip the different comedians up. Unfortunately the only comedians left at the end were filthy vulgar childish debased and uninteresting. I never found out who won, it just got sad and I couldn't hack it out. I don't mind a bit of crass humour but what makes it funny is the unexpected nature of it. When all the rules are out the door there is nowhere left to go but into boring and pitiful insanity. I feel sorry for myself that I watched as long as I did

Maybe Australians will enjoy it, dunno. It just felt like a bucketload of farts and kiddish jokes and nonsense to me. I sped up through the season, thinking maybe at least the last wpisode ahould be fun, the last remaining comedians must be the best, right? No, sir. Complete waste of time.

Not the greatest showcase of some of the comedians but I am not the type of person who finds it funny in saying the most crass thing for attention. To me you're just "trying" to be funny. But there is comedians in there that don't rely on that and are genuinely funny without screaming and yelling crass words so it is worth a watch.
