DESCRIPTION: (from TBS's press release, May 2014) TBS has unveiled the 10 talented comedians slated to compete against one another in Funniest Wins, a new series that's all about the laughs. Set to premiere Friday, June 20, at 10 p.m. (ET/PT), Funniest Wins comes to TBS from comedy heavyweight and WhatTheFunny.com founder Marlon Wayans (Scary Movie, A Haunted House, The Wayans Bros.) and Eyeworks USA. In the series, Wayans, along with some of his comic friends and family, will put the comics through the ringer to find the funniest multi-talented comedian working today. A complete rundown of the 10 competitors is included below. Modern comedy is varied in both style and platform, from sketch comedy to digital shorts and musical parodies to hidden-camera pranks. Thanks to modern media technology anyone and everyone can take a shot at becoming a successful comedian. TBS's Funniest Wins is on a mission to find out who really is the funniest of them all: the overnight sensation getting millions of online hits or the performer who's been honing his or her craft for years. |
