About the show: Ever since they were in high school together, the four friends at the center of
IMPRACTICAL JOKERS have challenged one another to do ridiculous things in public. Now all grown up, they are capturing their extreme dares on hidden camera, complete with unsuspecting strangers' amused, confused, or flabbergasted reactions.
After completing each dare, the guys are given a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down to determine who succeeded under pressure and who collapsed in defeat. Then at the end of each episode, the one with the most fails must face a mortifying punishment with truly humiliating consequences.
In addition to their extensive touring dates as the comedy troupe The Tenderloins, the guys will be embarking on a previously announced cruise with their fans in January 2016. The cruise departs from Miami on January 11 and stops in Cozumel, Mexico. For more information, please visit
