ABC is reportedly attempting to see how quick comedians are when pulling the trigger with their jokes.

The network has ordered The Fast & the Funniest, a new reality series from former Last Comic Standing producers Page Hurwitz and Javier Winnik, The Hollywood Reporter reported Wednesday.

The series' order is cast-contingent, according to The Reporter.

The Fast & the Funniest will follow a group of stand-up comedians as they travel across the country and compete in various challenges and performances to see who is the funniest on the fly, according to The Reporter, which added the first three comedians to reach the road trip's final stop would then perform for a cash prize.

The reality series would fill the void left by Last Comic Standing, which premiered on NBC in Summer 2003 and subsequently aired seven seasons before being canceled last year.

The Fast & the Funniest is currently slated to debut late midseason or early next summer if a cast can be assembled, according to The Reporter.
