Last Comic Standing is an American reality competition television series created and produced by Peter Engel in which stand-up comedians compete in weekly elimination challenges until one is left standing, who receives a development contract with the NBC television network as first prize.

The series premiered in the USA on NBC on 1 June, 2003.

The series premiered in South Africa on DStv's M-Net Series channel on Thursday 27 April 2006, at 21h00. It was moved to DStv's Mzansi Magic channel from the seventh season and later aired on SABC2. See "Seasons" below for seasonal broadcast times and dates.

Season 7

Last Comic Standing returns for a seventh season with new host Craig Robinson who will helm the search for the funniest comedian in America.

Joining Robinson as judges are respected comedians Greg Giraldo, Andy Kindler and Natasha Leggero.

As with previous seasons, celebrity talent judges in Los Angeles and New York will watch performances from aspiring and professional comedians.

In addition to the open casting calls, Last Comic Standing will invite some of the best and brightest comics from all over the country to participate in the competition.

Then America will vote to decide who will be the "Last Comic Standing" and win a $250,000 prize and an exclusive talent deal with NBC.

Last Comic Standing is produced by Universal Media Studios and Peter Engel Productions. Peter Engel, Jayson Dinsmore and Barry Katz serve as Executive Producers, along with Co-Executive Producers Javier Winnik and Page Hurwitz.
