Favorite with four nominations, Pierre-Yves Roy-Desmarais was the big winner of this evening, although the Olivier of the year escaped him.

He was crowned Discovery of the Year and was awarded an Olivier for his number There is nobody. The artist also obtained the favor of the public in the category humorous web capsule or sketch for his video Mom writes.

Also on the web, episodes of The Appendices: back after the break won the Comedy Web Series of the Year category. The worst moments in history with Charles Beauchesne and Everyone hates each other by Marylène Gendron and Sam Cyr were chosen as Scripted and Unscripted Comedy Podcasts of the Year, respectively.

The evening, broadcast on Radio-Canada television, was also an opportunity to reward television comedies.

Series The beautiful discomforts 2.0 by Martin Matte and the show Between two sheets signed by Mathieu Pepper have both won an Olivier in their respective category.

For his part, host Jean-Sébastien Girard won in the capsule or humorous radio sketch category of the year for his column Name of a Blowjob – All About Cum.
