ONDAR Show Last Comic Standing |
The programme was filmed at the Moulin Rouge and broadcast from Monday to Friday at around 6 p.m. on France 2 from 6 September 2010. During the second season, it was also broadcast on Saturdays. Special programmes were also broadcast during prime time (three in the second season and three in the third season).
During the first two seasons, daily shows, prime-time specials and the gala at the Casino de Paris featuring the show's best comedians were all presented by Laurent Ruquier. For the third, Ruquier was replaced for the daily shows by Jérémy Michalak. The show ended on 28 June 2013 because of low viewing figures. "Best-of" compilations were shown on France 2 until new episodes presented by Bruno Guillon began on 7 April 2014. After viewing figures remained low, the show ended again on 4 July 2014.
