FOR LAUGHS: For a week in May, YouTube will turn into the biggest open mic on the planet. The online video company is announcing the YouTube Comedy Week, a seven-day cyber extravaganza designed to showcase some of the best comedy across its expansive video platform. From May 19-25, YouTube will be overrun with punch lines, sketches, stand-up routines and — hopefully — a lot of laughs.

LIVE FROM CALI: Comedy Week will kick off with a global live stream from Los Angeles’ Culver Studios. Throughout the week, new episodes will debut from some of YouTube’s most popular channels, comedians will perform and comics will curate lists of their favorite videos.
