Impractical Jokers.......

First season was fantastic. It's still a funny show, but not as great when it was new, as most things are on TV. Joe is the funniest, to me, because he has absolutely no shame.
Thought it was awful the first few times I watched, but my kid loves it so I had to continue to watch it.
The more I watched the more it grew on me.

I've only seen it a few times but I can't believe nobody has beat the crap out of them yet for some of the stuff they do.
I've always wanted to see them do a show on the reactions of the people when they find out it's a prank.
They may have already done that, but I haven't seen it.

If you like impractical jokers watch the Canadian show Kenny vs. Spent it's much more raunchy humor but hilarious. Kenny Vs. Spenny
No thanks. We're American and this is America.
Wife saw it for the first time over the weekend and recorded about 12 episodes. I hadn't heard of it. Some bits just absolutely kill(the mall escalator, for instance), some fall flat, but it's good for at least a few good laughs per episode. It's growing on me.
Didnt like it the first time I watched it. But a couple weeks ago I left the TV on TruTv after watching a tournament game. Turned the TV on at like midnight and it was on and I got hooked. Like others have stated, it has its jokes that hit and ones that fall flat. I think one to two really good laughs are guaranteed for each show.
It's a great show that has grown on me over the last year. I must admit to not being so amused by it at first, but as I've seen it more and more, I've become a big fan of it. I just wonder how long can they keep it up though as they become more and more recognizable?
Case in point, Sal, Q, and Murr were sitting front row at WWE Monday Night Raw a few weeks ago, sitting right behind the announcers table. They were clearly there as fans, but I would've never recognized them a year ago, but now that I know who they are, they stuck out like sore thumbs.

I thought the show started strong but more recent episodes have fallen flat for me. Honestly, only so many ways to repackage the same shtick. I did watch one of their live road shows when it was aired and thought it was HORRIBLE.
In their live shows they go by the name "The Tenderloins".

They tried some other improv show on TruTv that was awful. It might have been cancelled, or at least it should have been.
Some of them are staged/faked with the people in the shop. TheRe was one in the grocery store that accidently caught a cereal box on the girls basket that had tape over the name brand of the cereal maker. While they never thought it would be seen, it was, thus busting the bubble as a staged show.
My favorite is either the Bingo Hall punishment or the dentist office where he raises the guy as high in the chair as possible, leans it back and then leaves the room. Good stuff.
If you turn the show on in the background while you're doing something else around the house, it sounds just like a bunch of caged monkeys when the guys start laughing.
