Season 2 begins with clips of people caught in unexpected situations.
Pranks include a driving range becoming a shooting range, an empty car moving around a parking lot, a curbside wedding photo-shoot and a postal worker inside a mailbox.
A garage door mishap; a disappearing girl; an in-line skater lands in a pond; a traveler eats bugs.
Unsuspecting patrons find a frog in a pitcher at a lemonade stand; an elderly woman pelts a police officer with fruit; a doctor checks the vital signs of a park bench.

The inventors of stoner comedy, legends Cheech & Chong are still jokin' (and possibly smokin'). Catch them as they perform some of their funniest bits, recall some hilarious behind-the-scenes stories from their days of filming 'Up In Smoke' and host a full bag of the world's funniest comedians. Included in the special are Last Comic Standing finalist Lavell Crawford, creator and star of the Brit cult comedy The Mighty Boosh Noel Fielding, the ever-opinionated Bill Burr, and Canada's own rising star Jay Malone.
Never the introvert, the Angriest Man in America Lewis Black hosts a roster of opinionated comics who just want to be heard, dammit!

You'd be an idiot to miss it... then again, that's just our opinion.

You've got front row seats for this multinational Just For Laughs gala from Montreal hosted by the multi-talented Eddie Izzard.

Featuring South African megastar Trevor Noah, Ronny Chieng, Jean Paul, SNL-alum Colin Quinn and Moroccan-born but French-living Gad Elmaleh doing his first English language show (where, according to the Montreal Gazette, he "blew the roof off with his charm"). You may have seen Elmaleh star alongside Amélie's Audrey Tautou in 2006's Priceless (a gem, if you haven't).
