Trivia
Aired in support of Stand Up to Cancer. Filming was delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic; when the final was shot it used a socially distanced audience and a virtual audience. However, the premise came in for criticism when it was announced, as stand-up comedy had been illegal for much of the pandemic.
