Impractical Jokers

[Funky]

So I'm 50 years old. I've seen a lot of TV shows, many of which were very funny.
This show...I don't have the words.
Lets just say I laughed so hard I had to stand up and leave the room just so I could catch my breath and wipe the tears from my eyes.
This is hands down, the funniest show I have ever seen in my life!

Surely somebody else has seen this show...

I'm just curious, is this show really as funny as I think or am I just mentally retarded?

No, it's not just you. It's such a simple concept but my god it is easily the funniest thing on TV. Every episode is something new.

The guys are insane. Love it.

 

[Marv]

Seriously! I'm sorry but it's a poor show and nothing but cheap laughs sorry only my opinion.

Let's just say that this show is perfect for mentally retarded people............but apparently you already knew that.....

i love them because its some what clean comedy. they dont swear much, one of my favorites is them fishing over the railing on the second floor of a mall and trying to grab peoples bags.

my girlfriend surprised me with tickets on my birthday to go see them live, now thats a totally different show then tv. very dirty!!!

one ritual they do at every show is pull a person from the audience, they hand over their cell phone then scroll through the contacts until the audience says stop. whoever's name it lands on they then text them " i tested positive" and then wait for the response, it was so funny!! they texted the girls uncle! lol

it was a excellent live show, i never got to see that side of them before so the swearing and dirty jokes were shocking at first, but i enjoyed it

Add me to the list of those addicted to the series. I remember Quinn from his time working with Kevin Smith's View Askew and from the Tell 'Em Steve Dave podcasts. Quinn also recently took a retirement from FDNY to continue to work on this after being on a sabbatical for quite some time.

I've got tickets to see them in December - I am so looking forward to it.

I absolutely..... love it. For me its more their interaction with each other and their reactions to the situations. Some of the punishments are brutal but hilarious. As my signature says..... a little nonsesne now and then is relished by the wisest men. If you havnet seen it you have to find the episode with the piñata forfeit.

I've watched it every once in a while and it seems hit or miss. Sometimes it's funny and other times it seems like they are just laughing at themselves.

Stock boy shoot outs are my favorite. Where they throw toilet paper into random peoples shopping cart and see how many rolls they can get in before the people leave LOL I love how people just stand there in disbelief

I love the show, saw a live show on tv, didn't laugh much. Seemed as if they cuss too much during it for cheap laughs. I don't think they're funny as stand up comedians. And Sal was really bad when he appeared on Comedy Knockout.

C'mon. They're New Yorkers. It's also why Donald trump is very entertaining.


You know, Q is the kind of guy who'd fit right in here at RPF.

i was in tears watching them on stage. they showed a lot of footage from the show that was too graphic for tv. this one clip they showed was when they were real young i believe they were filming season 1. so they explained they had no money at this time, they were in a pet shop. the film stuff was in the basement, they were having mic problems so they were trying to diagnose the problem, during which they bet Murr 100 bucks to eat a puppy turd... he did!! he chased it down with a shot of coke-cola but he did! the audience died!!

Murr is disgusting and a sneaky pervert. Its no wonder they're always ripping on him. And his relationship with Sal is funny. They're friends but you can tell Sal really dislikes him.
Also, I know you didn't ask me this but it apparently is a thing they do. There was an episode two weeks ago that was actually a taping of a live show. They chose a girl and called her ex.
