LOL: Wer lacht, ist raus - Kanada

This is a great concept and I found myself laughing a ton. It's very tame compared to the Japanese version I must say though. Some great bits by all involved, especially Tom Green and Colin Mochrie. I think Jon Lajoie is an ideal contestant for this kind of show because he's creatively funny and you can see him about to crack dozens of times. 4 episodes in and can't wait for more!

Dry at points but works. Growing up with lots of these Canadian comedians made the show for me. Great to see them all still doing there thing. So many weird/hilarious moments. Glad I watched.

Unexpected, ridiculous, and hilarious. I watched the first couple episodes with my partner and was basically yelling the entire time. Very silly and playful humour, you immediately connect with the actors and the types of bits they do.

The comics are excellent. Tom Green and Collin Mocherie are genius, of course. This is just a bunch of comics doing zany stuff and trying not to laugh. What brings the show down is the host, Jay Baruchel. He's simply awful. His jokes are stupid and he's just generally annoying. That's probably why he's the host and not a contestant. I am not offended by cussing, but I think it's just stupid when a comic just constantly drops the "f" bomb for no reason. His gratuitous and frequent use of it is just annoying. He's like that annoying guy in your group of friends that you just can't stand to be around. This show would have been so much better if they chose a better host that's more likable-maybe Dan Levy.

I've been an IMDB member for 16 years and wrote 1 review 13 years ago, and that was just to get the "write a review" notice on my incomplete membership profile checked off.

I have tons of ratings and do a lot of updates but have never been moved to join any conversations (when we had message boards) or leave reviews. Until now. This show is So Disappointing!

We found ourselves pestered non stop online and on TV with ads for this show. "Canada's funniest comedians! Jay Baruchel! Try not to laugh!!"

Well if these are Canada's best comedians we are in trouble. The only ones I've heard of are Dave Foley (funny but seems to be killing time), Tom Green (used to be funny but now a desperate older man yelling CHEESE!), Caroline Rhea (funny actor not comedian) and Colin Mochrie (funniest thing on the show which makes him stick out).

The rest of the comedians are almost all awful. I won't single out the worst but some are just... wow and oh boy. Letterkenny guy is actually good.

As for Jay Baruchel, he must be there for easy cash. He was clearly given some terrible lines to say when he uses his cards etc (the rules are long & stupid) and it's obvious he doesn't really find this show funny. He's a good sport but not a convincing host and not funny himself, not that he has much to work with. Don't expect Funny Movie Actor Jay Baruchel.

How can you fix this show? Simplify the rules. Find better comedians. Most of all stop spending tons of tax dollars to make and non stop advertise this show til it's actually something worth seeing, which is a long way off.

After all the ads we were Very Disappointed with this show. 3 stars for being Canadian and having Colin Mochrie and Dave Foley.
