During the three-night event, fans had the opportunity to choose from four simultaneous video streams direct from the event:

  • The LOL Lounge stream gave users a front-row seat to the more than 25 performances set to take place in a specially designed comedy club being set up in Caesars Palace's Emperors Ballroom.
  • Backstage at the LOL Lounge took viewers behind-the-scenes for interviews with the LOL Lounge comedians and a chance to catch them with their hair down.
  • The Web Show, hosted by Janet Varney (TBS's Dinner & a Movie) and Ian Bagg (The Ian Bagg Show), headed out onto the casino floor for interviews, background, interesting tidbits and lots of fun. The Web Show section also featured a chat function that allowed users to submit questions for interviews, as well as chat with the hosts and each other.
  • Greatest Hits is a video stream of fantastic performances from past editions of the annual Vegas event, as well as other TBS comedy hits.
