Comedienne Gets Her Own 'LOL' Spin-off - Hazel Brugger Hosts ‘LOL Next’—A High-Stakes Comedy Showdown on Prime Video
Prime Video is set to launch a new comedy show, 'LOL Next', in 2026. Hosted by Hazel Brugger, the show will feature ten viral comedy stars competing to keep a straight face, with a €50,000 prize for charity awaiting the winner. The show's stricter rules promise intense laughter and suspense.
The original 'LOL: Last One Laughing' has made waves in the comedy scene, winning the German Comedy Award and the German Television Award, and even receiving an International Emmy nomination. Its host, Michael 'Bully' Herbig, was honoured with the Jury's Lifetime Achievement Award at the Bambi Awards in 2025 for his contributions to comedy.
Herbig's latest film, 'The Canoe of Manitou', has already attracted over four million cinema-goers. Meanwhile, Hazel Brugger, who will host 'LOL Next', is no stranger to the 'LOL' franchise, having competed in four seasons without a win. The seventh season of the original show is set to air in 2026, leading up to the premiere of 'LOL Next'.
In 'LOL Next', the rules are tougher than ever. A single laugh will lead to instant elimination, making it a challenge for even the most seasoned comedians. The ten competitors will have to rely on their best comedic skills to avoid laughing and secure the €50,000 prize for a charitable cause.
With its stricter rules and talented lineup, 'LOL Next' promises to be a hilarious and engaging watch. Fans of the original show and Hazel Brugger's comedy can look forward to the premiere on Prime Video in 2026, where they can witness the intense battle of wit and self-control.
