Prime Video has unveiled the official trailer for “LOL: Last One Laughing Philippines” Season 2, offering a first look at the comedy showdown ahead of its October 30, 2026 premiere.

Vice Ganda returns as host and referee, overseeing 10 entertainers as they attempt to make one another break into laughter while keeping their own reactions under control.

The challenge unfolds inside a studio over six hours. Contestants can draw on their performance skills, improvisation, physical comedy, and character work to get a reaction from their opponents.

The difficulty lies in delivering those jokes without falling victim to someone else’s. With cameras watching their expressions throughout the competition, contestants must stay alert to both the comedy around them and their own responses.

Season 2 brings together performers from television, film, stand-up, theater, and social media. The lineup includes Long Mejia, Epy Quizon, Candy Pangilinan, Ethel Booba, Pooh, Donna Cariaga, Chariz Solomon, Esnyr, James Caraan, and Charuth.

Their different comedic backgrounds set up a contest where familiar routines can collide with spontaneous exchanges and unexpected performances. As the clock counts down, the challenge becomes as much about restraint as it is about finding the next joke.

From the control room, Vice Ganda monitors the action for rule violations while providing commentary on the contestants’ attempts to keep straight faces.

Returning showrunner Randolph Longjas oversees the season’s creative execution. The Philippine adaptation is produced by UXS Inc. (Unitel / Straight Shooters) under Amazon MGM Studios.

The Last One Laughing format is adapted from the Japanese Prime Original series Documental, originally conceptualized by and starring Hitoshi Matsumoto, under Yoshimoto Kogyo.

The upcoming season continues the format’s central twist: comedians who normally depend on audience laughter must now treat it as a threat to their own survival in the competition.

“LOL: Last One Laughing Philippines” Season 2 premieres exclusively on Prime Video on October 30, 2026, with availability in the Philippines and more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.
