Only caught bits and pieces of the show and it seemed okay but nothing I'd go out of my way to watch. Used to come on before At Home with Amy Sedaris which sadly TruTV cancelled.

Dude how hard is it to not creep on people? Then again some of their dares are "flirt uncomfortably with this woman (or even wackier, with a man!)"

There are some decent dumb chuckles, especially when they're just humiliating each other without involving unknowing participants, but sometimes goes too far and I'm surprised no one's punched and/or maced them for some of the stuff they've done.

used to really like this show until they started padding out episodes with those 5 minute Making Of segments at the end. it's a hidden camera show, who gives a poo poo. total chump move.

a guy tried to put hands on murr in a clothing store after he kept trying to hand him a bra or something. it was in season 5 I believe. I haven't seen any recent episodes but can't recall if anyone else getting physical.

Apparently Tru TV removed every mention of him from their website and HBO Max is apparently removing episodes where Joe gave someone a massage so yeah my money is on he definitely raped an intern or something.

I like the show. The earlier seasons are better than the recent ones because, as another poster mentioned, the challenges seemed more about bothering the Jokers themselves rather than bothering the public. In a way, I could see the show being better without Joe as he was in many ways simply an actor. He would do anything. And well, it got boring. I bet he was the kid in high school that would snort anything you told him to up his nose.

I doubt the show will live on much longer, though.

I've enjoyed a couple episodes of Impractical Jokers, I don't think it's too bad, but my ex (who showed it to me) and I tried watching the feature film they did and we stopped 5 minutes in.

You'd think a show like this would just go the Jackass route and just to over the top poo poo that the show didn't have the budget for... except it starts off with a reinactment of how they met or something with them playing their younger selves. I presume the rest of the film was basically the same poo poo, maybe that was just the intro to the film and it went on to be what you'd expect but we didn't care to give it a shot. lol

Pretty much always in good spirits and watchable in any language because there's no dialogue to be heard. It's a great show

Sal at the book reading with that ringtone, sal having to do a terrible stand up set, sal having to play those affirmations in the waiting room, basically anything where sal has to embarrass himself in front of people because you can tell he’s genuinely mortified the whole time.

My brother likes it too and while it might be a stretch to call him mentally disabled he does have brain damage from alcoholism.

I haven't watched a lot of it but to me it seemed sort of like Jackass but without the stunts. My dad has watched it along my brother and his attitude is "Ugh, these four wankers..." I actually found that odd because I've caught him watching Big Bang Theory with a big goofy grin on his face.

The guys do seem sort of annoying but I watched one of them interview a bunch of bikers and then asked if they would give him a wedgie. He irritated them so much that they happily obliged. I'll admit I found that funny.

He's the sort of alcoholic who never gave himself a break and refused to eat when he was drinking. This often led to him having seizures when he was in withdrawal. They could happen at any time, which often meant he fell to the ground and hit his head. A few years ago he had a particularly bad one that left him in a coma for a few months.

And he's still drinking.

It's not something I bring up a lot in GBS but I do talk about it occasionally in E/N.

He's not a drooling vegetable yet so my mother and I haven't given up on him but most of the rest of my family members have.
