  • The first season, hosted by Hazel Brugger, will launch on Sept. 10.
  • The show brings together a new generation of German comedy performers under a rule that eliminates anyone who laughs or grins.

“LOL Next” has secured a second season before its first episode has even aired. Amazon’s streaming service announced the renewal at a program presentation in Berlin.

The first season of the spin-off from “LOL: Last One Laughing” will premiere on Prime Video on Sept. 10. Hazel Brugger hosts the show.

The format brings together what Amazon describes as “the next generation of German comedy talent.” Its central rule is simple: contestants must keep a straight face. Anyone who laughs, or even grins, is eliminated.

The renewal puts the German comedy spin-off on the service’s plans alongside the upcoming first season, which has not yet been released.
