‘Comedy Island Philippines’: Original Filipino comic gem from Prime Video

Prime Video's original Filipino series Comedy Island Philippines debuted on 31 August not only in the Philippines but across over 240 countries and territories worldwide. The six-part series promises a thrilling concoction of reality, comedy and adventure set against the backdrop of an enigmatic island.

Comedy Island Philippines features some of the Philippines' most prominent comedians, actors and social media influencers, and they were all there at the media briefing for the show, among them Carlo Aquino, Andrea Brillantes, Cai Cortez, Justine Luzares, Drew Arellano, etc., along with director Randolph Longjas, producer Tanya Yuson of BASE Entertainment and Quark Henares, head of Amazon Originals Philippines.

By cleverly fusing scripted and unscripted scenes of humor and adventure and planned and improvised moments, Comedy Island Philippines defies common categorization. This unique approach guarantees that viewers are taken on a surprising and delightful journey every episode, said Longjas.

Aside from the show's huge set on mystic Tawa-Tawa Island where the participant-competitors must overcome obstacles, viewers can expect outrageous antics, hilarious bloopers and surprising escapades by the series' characters.

Comedy Island Philippines is exclusively accessible on Prime Video and joins an array of other engrossing programs and movies like Fit Check, Cattleya Killer, Ten Little Mistresses, Deleter, Walang KaParis, Korean productions like The Killing Vote and Heartbeat, anime hits and lauded Amazon Originals.
