    Impractical Jokers [could] possibly the funniest, most ridiculous show I've seen in years.

    The funniest bits rely on incongruity rather than vulgarity. But even the crude stuff has a silver lining.

    Nobody will ever confuse Impractical Jokers with high art, certainly, but as low-brow, micro-cost comedy in the context of TruTV's programming resources, it's actually quite practical--and occasionally funny.

All four of the, Sal, Murr, Joe and Q are terrific showing their definity in their humor persona's in many scenarios. Once you connect with them you will be hooked watching youtube videos for hours.… Expand

    Impractical Jokers is the funniest TV show I’ve laid my eyes on. It’s a show based on four friends that wander around New Jersey and New YorkImpractical Jokers is the funniest TV show I’ve laid my eyes on. It’s a show based on four friends that wander around New Jersey and New York trying to embarrass each other as much as possible. Sal, Murr, Q and Joe go around random public places such as parks, various malls, restaurants and really anywhere. While one “joker” is out pranking, the other three are watching from afar or from a TV, using a microphone that goes into the ear piece of the current joker telling them what to do or say. If that joker doesn’t do or say what the other guys communicate to him, then he loses (gets a thumbs down). I could sit on the couch in my basement for hours listening to these jokers embarrass themselves, Murr is the kind of guy that gets blasted by the other guys as they make fun of him all the time, Sal always seems to get the very difficult and inappropriate tasks (he often gets flustered), Joe is the guy who will do anything and last but not least, Q is the funny hobo. If you’re a TV fan that enjoys comedy TV shows, this one is definitely for you. The best part? All of these jokes are on average people and not paid actors.… Expand

The men in this have such chemistry together and also seem like very likable people too. I've been watching this show since it first aired and have never missed one show. I will watch rerun episodes over and over. I was lucky enough to meet them in the city when they did a meet and greet in the city after their first season. So if you're looking for a show that would make you laugh till you cry, then watch this.… Expand

Genuine laughter, and pure stupidity. I discovered it a few weeks ago whenever I was channel-surfing and whenever I found this show on TruTV, I fell in love with it. The guy's quick wit, outstanding performance, and their shear stupidity is above everything else. I absolutely love this show, and I have no idea why people don't like it. Warning, sense of humor is needed when watching this show. You can also watch it when you're feeling down. Thursdays at 10pm Eastern time! I can't wait to see this show again on Thursday. Highly recommended for viewers.… Expand
