Plot Synopsis
Hosted by comedian Amanda Seales, BRING THE FUNNY is a competition series for the next generation of comedians who must impress a panel of judges -- Kenan Thompson, Chrissy Teigen, and Jeff Foxworthy -- as well as, ultimately, the American viewing audience. The series features the world's best comedic acts and, for the first time on television, embraces every style of comedy performance in one competition. In partnership with the international organization Just for Laughs, which has given rise to some of today's most successful comedic acts via its iconic festivals, tours and television series, BRING THE FUNNY features the best of the best stand-ups, sketch troupes and comedic variety acts. From solo comics to sketch troupes to musicians, magicians, puppeteers, YouTubers and more -- anyone who can make audiences laugh has the chance to receive the career-changing $250,000 prize package and see their name in lights in the LIVE finale of BRING THE FUNNY where America gets to vote for who they think is the funniest of the funny.
