Documental

Documental (Japanese: ドキュメンタル) is a Japanese comedy show created and hosted by Hitoshi Matsumoto that has been airing on Amazon Prime Video since 30November 2016.

It has several international adaptations, many of which are marketed under the name Last One Laughing.

Format

Ten comedians stay in a living-room-style studio with hidden cameras for a few hours (usually six). During this time, they must try to make their opponents laugh in any way and by any means, while not reacting to their opponents’ attempts to make them break.

At the first laugh, the competitor is cautioned (yellow-carded), while a second eliminates the player from the game (red-carded). However, large infractions may be given an automatic red card. Eliminated players join the host in the observation room, but may return as an external challenger to the remaining contestants. The comedians can also be eliminated if they are not active enough. The only way to communicate with the outside is a telephone controlled by the host.
