The sixth season of the summer favourite, Last Comic Standing, premieres early on Global this summer. Canada's favourite comedy competiton begins its summer with hilarious stand-up auditions from across North America including auditions held in Toronto, Canada. This season will include a bevy of comedian talent scouts to help "find the funny" and bring the best of the best to Las Vegas to face off against their toughest crowd yet - other comics. The first five episodes, beginning with the premiere May 22nd, will follow the Last Comic Scouts as they search the country for twelve finalists who will then compete throughout the summer to become the Last Comic Standing. This test of comedy talent will join Global's already stacked summer schedule including the new summer series - Swingtown, Durham County, In Plain Sight and Wipeout.

See who's "finding the funny".
