I'm going to stab you. Offline. With a real knife.




I just wanted to get this up here before the premiere starts :siren: THURSDAY JANUARY 29th @ 10pm :siren: This show is about 4 friends that have a hidden camera show where they go into certain situations and try to make each other too embarassed/humiliated to continue. Whoever "loses" the most by the end of an episode gets punished which has ranged from skydiving, to being an opening act for Imagine Dragons, to getting tattoos, to marrying one of their sisters (ceremony)

The 4 Friends:













Here's a couple clips. Post your favorites and I will add them to the OP:

I will also edit in stuff about their tours and social media stuff . Just watch it, it's funny!

The scooter bit was hilarious, but am I wrong in thinking it's pretty distasteful (even for these guys)?

According to Twitter, it took Q half an hour to subdue that gator. Maybe it's just editing but it looks like he handled it pretty well, at least compared to how the other guys would've done it!!

The only part of the scooter bit that came off distasteful was Sal with the beer. I was shocked he went through with it.

I kinda figured one of the Gator trainers explained to Q how to get it done and was edited out.

I wasn't too bothered by the scooter bit given that I've seen worse when I've gone shopping. :shrug: But boy, they really upped the cringeworthiness this episode! I watched a good chunk of it with my hand over my face. :xd:

The "I don't need yours, ma'am." got the biggest laugh out of the night for me. Oh man, I'm so glad this show's back!

I saw Murr walking into my office the other day. He desperately wanted me to recognize him. It was weird.

This weeks punishment was straight out of the 1st or 2nd season. No elaborate things, just one man getting punked by his friends and having to take it! Murr looks good in heels

That must've been pretty surreal for the audience of that punishment! The first part of that punishment was my fav with the way Murr hit those high notes. :xd:

Not to mention that Sal slap montage. :haw: They could probably have another show with just what gets left on the cutting room floor.

It seemed like the punishment sounded great on paper, but yeah... the execution didn't work that well. The ending did save it a little bit.

I dunno, those questions were hilarious..."what would you say is your favorite crime?"

Episodes like this where each 'turn' is nearly 2 minutes makes me wish this was an hour-long show. It's kinda too dumb to justify that length but still, more = better

Sal and Q have a podcast called "What Say You". In which they do talk about IJ and Tenderloins but not the focus. They're going to be watching and reviewing all Fast and Furious movies leading to the new one this summer, which they're getting a free screening for (with fans)

The group also has a podcast but haven't released an episode since Dec 2013.

What Say You is pretty fun, but it's updated pretty sporadically these days (though they have just released a new episode that I need to check out). If you check out only one episode of this podcast, check out Episode 19: I Have Your Pants.

We talked about this adventure for a second in the old thread. It really helps to flesh him out as a human weirdo. I was a bit annoyed by the couple episodes a few months ago about getting the drunk girl who stole Murr's jacket arrested. The story about it was funny as poo poo though.

Impractical Jokers is the show I've found that everyone under the sun likes. Everyone I've mentioned it to has loved it, across every line I can think of.

Sal pressing the cop he called got really awkward and I was shocked the detective humored him for as long as he did.

This week was OK. Q seems to get the... Simpliest punishments out of the 4 of them

The sandwich shop bit was pretty amazing. I don't know which guy did the best... At least between Q, Sal and Murr.

The punishment was funny as well, they really know how to gently caress with Sal.

Yeah, Q's CPR on the puppet and Murr with the bindle just slayed me. :haw:

I loved the "He Did It" game, too. I look forward to seeing that one again! I'd be the most afraid to go up against Joe: the guy's just too slick on situations like that.

Sal's reaction to "you wouldn't understand - I'm sorry." Was loving great. :xd:

Glad to see a thread for this show. I got super into it near the end of season one but then dropped off due to being too busy to follow shows for a little while. I spent the past few weeks binging on the episodes I've missed (it is unbelievable how easy it is to burn through like five episodes at a time, such an addictive show) and am all caught up now. Can't get enough of these guys!! Also I relate to Q a lot more than I'd like to admit...

That entire episode was completely uncomfortable. I absolutely loved Q's opening challenge where the dude hits the other guy with the cup of water on accident. That was fantastic.

That punishment though... she was *my* childhood crush as well, I would have been completely mortified. That punishment was cruel. Poor Murr gets some of the meanest punishments!!

I'm so happy this is back. I actually discovered these guys when Q and Sal were guests on the Doug Stanhope podcast. I'd never even heard of the show before then, now I've seen every episode half a dozen times and listen to every What Say You? episode. It's really my favorite funny show on TV right now. I can't get enough of these guys.

It would've been better if it was Joe and his huge weird gut. Murr wasn't in body builder shape, but he had a bit of tone and he wasn't a fat sack of garbage like the other guys.
