This diverse group of comedians spans various backgrounds, from television to social media, ensuring a mix of styles and humor.

As the competition unfolded, several standout moments emerged. Raul Cremona, known for his engaging characters, was the first contestant eliminated, a victim of his own laughter during a particularly amusing skit. Following him were Valeria Graci and Marta Zoboli, who also fell prey to the laughter trap, leaving six competitors still vying for the title.
Flora Canto's performance has been rated at 5.5, as she struggled to make a significant impact in the early episodes, often resorting to wordplay that failed to land.

Geppi Cucciari, another strong contender, scored 7.5 for her ability to blend into the group and provide sharp commentary while maintaining her comedic edge. Meanwhile, Valeria Graci's performance was noted as lackluster, earning her a score of 5, as she often chose silence over engagement.
Andrea Pisani, who received a 7+, demonstrated a knack for improv, reminiscent of former contestant Frank Matano, using props like cucumbers to avoid laughter. His creative approach has made him a fan favorite, while Marta Zoboli's natural and spontaneous humor earned her a solid 7.5.
Federico Basso emerged as a standout performer, receiving an 8 for his quick wit and clever jokes that often left his fellow contestants in stitches. His ability to adapt and improvise has made him a formidable competitor.
As for the hosts, Pintus and Siani have been rated an impressive 8 for their ability to engage with the contestants and inject humor into the proceedings. Their dynamic has proven to be a highlight of the season, as they navigate the comedic chaos while keeping the energy high.
