Last Comic Standing was a show where its goal was to
select a comedian from an initially large group of hopefuls to
win a cash prize and a development deal with Universal
Television. Each season began with open casting calls in
various United States locations. The comics who advanced
to the semifinal qualifying round were divided into two groups.
The head-to-head competition occurred in front of a live studio
audience, which in the first seven seasons voted electronically
for their preferred performer, while in Season 8 the judges voted
for the winner. The comic who received the lowest number of
votes each week was eliminated from the competition, until
there was only the "Last Comic Standing." In August 2016,
after 9 seasons in 12 years, NBC canceled the series.
