Quim Masferrer is The Outsider, a stand-up comedian on the road, who travels through Catalonia in search of the human landscape of its towns under a thousand in population. Each episode brings a new town, and with each town a new challenge: to perform a stand-up routine before the residents, one that is personalized and tailored to each town and its inhabitants. Quim is given just 48 hours to meet as many people as he can. He then brings all the residents together in the town theatre to reveal his particular vision on what he has discovered. Everyone is there and each one could appear in his routine at any given moment. For a few seconds, everyone gets to be the centre of attention. The result is a comedy show where the residents are both the audience and the protagonists, within a format that combines moments from the stand-up routine with his interviews and research on the characters. It is TV3’s adaptation of the Danish format Comedy on the Edge.
