@midnight!

Post Reply New Topic

@midnight is a Comedy Central Panel Game that summons Chris Hardwick and the gods of Web 2.0 and social media (particularly Twitter) to evaluate the comedic antics of three comedians competing to be the Funniest Person on Earth... for the next 23 and a half hours.

While most of the "rounds" are topical and change nightly, there are some common rounds, such as "Rapid Refresh" (multiple-choice questions), "Hashtag Wars" (a Speed Round), the "Live Challenge" (a task which is done by the contestants over the commercial break; it usually involves writing a review for a product), and then another speed round, after which the lowest scorer is eliminated.note The game concludes with "FTW", where the final two have to perform one more task (it's another "Live Challenge"); the two responses (but not who wrote them) are shown to the Studio Audience, and the contestant whose response garnishes the most applause wins the Internet.
