## Synopsis

LOL : Qui rit, sort ! (2021-present) is a French comedy reality competition created for Prime Video, produced by Endemol France and Amazon Studios. Hosted by Philippe Lacheau, with Alexandra Lamy among the presenters, the show gathers ten French actors and comedians, including Jérôme Commandeur, Kyan Khojandi, Marina Foïs, Tarek Boudali, Audrey Lamy, Inès Reg and Alison Wheeler, for a single six-hour challenge in a grandiose venue. The engine is simple and cruel: anyone who laughs is eliminated, so every participant must hold a poker face while peers attempt every provocation they can think of. Each season plays out as one continuous contest with a rising stake, a winner who takes 50000 euros for the charity they represent, and a steady stream of escalating attempts to crack composure. The format fits the playful, irreverent register of French comedy and the mischief of celebrity roasts. Fans of Burger Quiz, Celebrity Juice and Hell's Kitchen will find a similar appetite for comic endurance, improvised teasing and the pleasure of watching famous faces struggle to keep a straight face across six seasons so far.
