Trevor Noah departs from The Daily Show and returns home.


The comedian will host the first South African original series on Amazon, a reinvention of the LOL: Last One Laughing formula.


Noah will throw ten great South African comedians and performers against each other in the series, which premieres next year, to see who can retain a serious face while trying to make their opponents laugh - and lose.


Noah expressed his joy about this gig. He stated:
“I’m excited to be back home to host Prime Video’s first South African Original, LOL: Last One Laughing, and to have a chance to connect with my home audience,”

The winner will receive a grand prize of R1 million for donating to their charity of choice in South Africa.

Noah added, “I am equally delighted with the opportunity to work alongside my fellow home-grown comedy stars on a show that not only entertains but gives back to the South African production and charity communities.”

Ned Mitchell, head of Africa and Middle East Originals, Prime Video said 

We are delighted to be announcing Trevor’s momentous return home to South Africa as the host of Prime Video’s first South African original, LOL: Last One Laughing 

Comedy, in all its forms, shines among South Africa’s most valuable treasures. Together with an A-list roster of this country’s incredible home-grown comedic talent competing for a great charitable cause, Trevor and Prime Video are demonstrating the depth of our shared ambition to invest and elevate the very best of South Africa for audiences locally and around the world

Late in 2022, Noah announced that he teamed up with Savanna Premium Cider for the Trevor Noah Live in South Africa tour. This will take place between August and September 2023.
