With Tosh.0 debuting on Comedy Central in 2009, becoming their most popular and most-watched show, MTV decided to cash in on their successful cash cow (i.e. Rob Dyrdek) to host a "reacting to funny and surprising internet video" show.
Enter Ridiculousness, hosted by entrepreneur Dyrdek, who also had 2 other shows from MTV he did: Rob & Big and Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory before hosting Ridiculousness.
The 2 co-hosts/commenters, also from Fantasy Factory, were Sterling "Steelo" Brim, who controls the videos by playing, pausing, rewinding, fast-forwarding, speeding it up and slowing it down when commanded by the host, and rapper Chanel West Coast, who, for the most part, usually just sits there and occasionally laughs, therefore introducing to the mainstream media to what we know as "the girl with the laugh" (and to answer the question that is on everyone's mind, its cute and infectious and I'm gonna leave it at that).
Chanel would leave in 2023, and after many guest co-hosts throughout the year, they settled on Lauren "Lolo" Wood as the new permanent "just sit there and laugh" co-host.
I wouldn't recommend watching more than maybe 2 episodes at most, as its usually the same format for every episode (with minor differences in some episodes), and try not to think while watching this show as your brain will overheat in confusion and frustration, and would eventually shut down completely.
