**The set is TOO BIG.** There are some genuinely great moments in LOL, but it suffers from one massive, fundamental flaw: the set design is way too big. If you've watched the original Japanese "Documental" version, you know exactly what makes this format work. Documental used a small, claustrophobic set blocked out with loads of objects in the way. That confined space was a pressure cooker. It forced all the comedians to overhear each other's jokes, keeping it fast-paced and forcing at least 75% of the comedians who weren't participating in a bit to overhear the jokes and see the funny expressions. The narrow walkways often had people stood in the way, so if someone was trying not to laugh, they were physically trapped with several people actively trying to make them laugh, and not then laugh themselves too. This stopped them peacefully walking away and dragged out the 'struggling not to laugh' moments even longer, which were hilarious. They seriously struggled to dissipate the laugh energy. In the UK "LOL" version, the sprawling set completely kills that tension. You end up with groups of two or three drifting off into far corners, unable to hear other groups, their jokes, or see
