The Comedy Network confirmed that it is returning to Montréal’s Just For Laughs Festival this July, with the announcement of a fifth season of its original stand-up series Just For Laughs: All Access. The announcement comes just weeks before the Season 4 premiere of the series starring The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah on Saturday, June 4th at 10pm on Comedy.
Produced by Just For Laughs Television in association with The Comedy Network, Season 5 of Just For Laughs: All Access is set to be filmed this July on location in Montréal, where Comedy has special access to the marquee galas and gritty club shows to produce an additional 13, one-hour episodes. Season 5 performers and broadcast dates will be announced in the coming months.
“Just For Laughs: All Access is a signature series on The Comedy Network, bringing unprecedented access to comedy’s elite, and shining a light on both emerging and established Canadian comics” said Tracey Pearce, Senior Vice-President of Specialty and Pay. “We are thrilled to deliver more All Access laughs to our viewers.”
“We can’t wait to return to the iconic Just For Laughs Festival in Montréal this summer,” said Corrie Coe, Senior Vice-President of Independent Production at Bell Media. “Our longstanding partnership with the team at Just For Laughs allows us to capture the full festival experience and continue to bring some of the world’s best talents and some serious laughs to The Comedy Network.”
