Previously, around Tet, this market was very active with a series of comedies released on CD and DVD.
Almost every family has a CD player, making enjoying Tet comedies an indispensable part of the spring atmosphere.
However, with the development of technology and online media platforms, the way Tet comedy films are produced and consumed has changed a lot.
The excitement of the Tet comedy market on social networks
Nowadays, YouTube channels and social media platforms have become the main channels for producers to release comedy videos, stemming from changes in the public's entertainment consumption habits.
During the 2025 Tet season, a series of comedy videos were released, attracting the attention of the audience.
One of the notable Tet comedy works is "Cau Ut Cau Con Cuc" part 4, produced by Huynh Lap and 17 Production.
The cast of "Cau Ut Cau Con Cuc" includes many famous names such as Meritorious Artist Kim Phuong, Huynh Lap, Puka, Duy Khanh, Quang Trung... attracting great attention from the audience, helping the film quickly reach the 6th position on YouTube's trending list.
"Tao Lien Quan 2025" targets the community of players of the famous game, and also attracts attention when it gathers veteran comedians such as People's Artist Tu Long, Meritorious Artist Quang Thang, Van Dung...
The program "Xuan Phat Tai 15", includes many short comedy skits, with the participation of famous artists such as Meritorious Artist Xuan Hinh, People's Artist Tu Long, People's Artist Hong Van, Meritorious Artist Xuan Bac, Thanh Thanh Hien... and many famous singers such as Quang Le, Bang Kieu, Giang Hong Ngoc... bringing a colorful musical feast combined with comedy.
"The sloppy bus" written and directed by Thai Duong, with the participation of young actors who appeared in "Meeting at the end of the year" such as Do Duy Nam, Truong Son...; "What's fun about going home" by Duy Khanh, Phi Phung...; "The war of in-laws 4" with the participation of Vuong Rau and Bao Chung... also attracted attention.
It is worth mentioning that Thang Long Audio Visual Film Studio (Thang Long AV) used to be a "big guy" in the Tet comedy scene with many famous works such as "Khong dan biet ang", "Chon noi", "Tien oi"... this year continues to participate in the Tet comedy race with "Chieng Lang Chieng Cha", with the participation of People's Artist Quoc Anh and Meritorious Artist Phu Don.
Although still carrying the typical Northern folk comedy, "Chieng Lang Chieng Cha" did not attract attention like other Tet comedy products.
New trends in Tet comedy production
The shift of the Tet comedy market from DVDs and CDs to prioritizing online platforms also reflects modern consumer trends.
Platforms like YouTube and TikTok have become the main channels for artists and producers to reach audiences quickly and effectively.
This not only saves on production and printing costs, but also reaches a wider audience, increasing the ability to interact with viewers through comments and sharing.
Many producers also cleverly incorporate elements such as music, art performances... interspersed with Tet comedy skits, or use parody music and "trendy" details in their products to attract the audience's attention.
