If you haven’t heard of truTV’s hit series “Impractical Jokers”, then you are truly missing out. This show follows four longtime friends form New York that dare each other to do outrageous and often humiliating things in public all while being filmed by a hidden camera. I can honestly say that I have never laughed so hard in a LONG time then when I watch my first episode from this show. I was super excited that Warner Home Video releases that there is a market to re-watch these 17 episodes from the series’ first season and are releasing them on Blu-ray. Let’s hope that these do well and we see many more seasons to come.
Official Premise: They have to SAY it. They have to DO it. You have to SEE it. Once you start watching, you just can’t stop! For the first time ever on DVD, watch Q, Sal, Joe and Murr compete in a series of the most hilarious dares ever, recorded by hidden cameras, with Impractical Jokers: The Complete First Season. Packed with all 17 episodes from the first season plus bonus features, this DVD will have you howling with laughter!
“Impractical Jokers” has become such a hit for truTV. The show is getting more popular and popular with each new season. The show just started its third season and even have their own post-show series now with six episodes of “Jokers After Party”, which features Q, Sal, Joe and Murr chatting about their favorite moments from various episodes. If you want more “Impractical Jokers”, fans of the show can also catch the guys live during the truTV Impractical Jokers Tour featuring The Tenderloins, which has been touring all over the country. But wait…there is still more they also have an app available now in the App Store and Google Play, which features clips from the show, a soundboard smorgasbord, doodle pad and a chance to call the jokers directly and speak with them live.
In terms of special features, there is enough to add some decent replay value to the show. There are 12 deleted scenes that add up to about 10 minutes. I honestly was loving these personally. There are four short behind-the-scenes featurettes including “Brian Quinn: Q Up for Laughter,” “Larry! It’s the Best Joe Moments Ever!,” “James Murray: Off the Couch,” and “Delicious! The Best of Sal Vulcano.” *Meet the Stars of Impractical Jokers” is another four featurettes, which introduces each one of guys. Lastly there are five commentaries with the guys on the episodes, “Pay It Forward,” “Boardwalk of Shame,” Out of TP,” “Who Arted?,” and “Charity Case.” A must listen for any fan of the show.
