Tirando a Maior Onda

Impractical Jokers premiered last night with two back-to-back episodes, and it had me laughing non-stop for an hour.

The premise is simple: 4 friends compete in hidden camera prank challenges. Whoever loses the most challenges in each episode must face a humiliation concocted by the other 3 guys. While I initially thought this idea would get old fast, seeing it in action had me in tears from laughing.

The boys' chemistry is delightful, and their ability to improvise their way out of embarrassing situations is impressive. The boys never fail to deliver the goods, and the reactions of those around them are just as funny. Great show, can't wait to see more of it.

These four longtime friends are hysterical. They think up clever (usually) stunts and then challenge each other, mostly on the streets of New York, to execute those stunts. Each is rated by the other three as to whether or not his assignment is successfully completed. The one with the most losses by the end of the show then must undergo one last humiliating stunt, again cooked up by his three buddies. It's a 'Candid Camera' with a twist. The hits far outweigh the misses. Unlike most tv comedies, this one produces numerous belly laughs. I once saw them filming in Washington Square Park.

Hahaha just thinking about this show makes me laugh.. The show is about four friends daring each other to act and say inappropriate and or funny things to strangers to earn points and the person with the lowest points gets punished at the end of the episode. Joe and Mirr are my favorites, but Q and Sal are super funny too. I've never laughed so hard watching any other TV show nor movie. These guys make me fall to the ground from laughing! They are so smart and clever with the skits. Aside from being so funny, the show is also very believable. I don't get any feeling to indicate that the strangers are acting like I do with some other shows. IJ is a weekly treat. This show is a weekly treat. It's the best comedy on TV, in my opinion. So glad I discovered this this show...going to tell everyone about it.

I generally hate most of the things on truTV, I'm pretty sure that the majority of the population does but this show is different. It isn't like anything I've ever seen because although it has some "Jackass" aspects to it and some reality TV aspects to it, it is an entirely different show that never gets old. It's what you wish you could be doing with you're buddies rather than going to work, just messing with ordinary people and seeing how far you can take a joke with someone who doesn't know what is going on. It's hilarious and it only takes 15 minutes to get hooked for life. I turned on reruns of this show one day in a fraternity house and within 30 minutes the entire 30 person house was watching and laughing, that is how good this is, everybody who gives it a chance will love it, I guarantee it.

This show is a hilarious combination of real life pranks/dares filmed and prompted by 4 friends with a wonderful sense of humor and camaraderie.

If you ever had a friend that you liked to prank (and who would lay in wait to get even) then you can identify and laugh with these 4 who take the greatest delight in making each other do ridiculous gags on the public. However, it's the stars of the show that get the humiliation rather than the unsuspecting victims a la "Candid Camera".

So, if you want to watch a goofy, goodspirited half hour of belly laughs, check out "Impractical Jokers". It's a winner!
