Is Open Mic coming back?

Open Mic's return is unconfirmed. The show last aired on October 10, 2024, and there is no scheduled date for the next season.

Open Mic is a comedy series that premiered on August 9, 2023, on VK Видео Originals. It featured performances by nearly 70 comedians from various regions of Russia, selected through the Big Standup Fest VK held in May 2023. Each episode concluded with a jury and host choosing the funniest participant, who then qualified for the subsequent show Money Mic, which began airing immediately after Open Mic.

The show was a competition-based comedy program that showcased stand-up performances from emerging Russian comedians. It aimed to highlight new talent and provide a platform for humor rooted in regional diversity. The first season ran from August 2023 to October 2023, followed by a second season that aired from August 2024 to October 2024. The series has a runtime of 53 minutes per episode.
