SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

Variety reported Wednesday the new TV series from Page Hurwitz and Javier Winnik of "Last Comic Standing" will have a competition format similar to the wacky race shown in the movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World."

The new series will follow stand-up comedians as they race across the country, completing tasks and sharing their comedic ways in pursuit of a cash prize.

"Fast", which counts Hurwitz and Winnik as executive producers, will end when the first three comedians to arrive in the race's destination city compete in a final comedic battle.

The Reporter said in addition to "Last Comic", Hurwitz and Winnik worked together on "The Comedy Roadshow." No date was given for a possible debut of "Fast."
