The Prank Panel

How much did Johnny Knoxville and Eric Andre get paid to be on this? Huge fan of both guys but damn... they were just put on here for the name value. I really wanted to like it but it's just so cheesy and cliche. They had a decent budget for the pranks but I just feel like this show is super restricted by production for Johnny and Eric to really be themselves. Wondering if Johnny and Eric actually have any say in what the pranks end up being because they don't really seem to be their style. They are only there to pick which pranks are gonna be done (are they really the ones picking though?) and behind the scenes on the pranks. It's basically mtv punkd (which hasn't aged well) 20 years later but worse.

The show has some promise, but Gabby has to go. Who the h3ll does she think she is? A contestant on the episode with the electrician delivered a befitting blow to her with "what do the two relevant ones have to say" after Gabby was being her typical bratty, annoying, wannabe celebrity she seems to be. Eric and Knoxville are the gems of the show, yet somehow this terrible person landed this job. Replace or remove her.

To date, the first episode with the lady clown trying to prank her son has been the best. The male leads are funny and I think they could do more to help support some of the pranks. I'll continue to watch a little longer, but again, Gabby needs to go.

I'm not a fan of the Shark-Tank-like prank pitch setup. It feels like a painful American idol where they just make people feel bad for lame ideas. Then the setup watching the pranks in front of a live audience feels off. Without Jonny Knoxville or Eric Andre this show would be a pass for me. It doesn't seem to be either of their styles. Or at least a very watered down version.

I liked the little bit of pranks slipped in on the people pitching a joke before they pitch. It feels more organic and not so structured. It's not a 1 star terrible. . . Might be moderately entertaining for some, so 4/10.

The way you guys come out at the end of the prank is a real buzzkill. You just walk out and tell the victim. That's boring. Any other idea would be better. Even if Johnny walked out and got involved in the prank would work. If the victim knows him, he will know it's a prank. If they don't know him you could just keep adding people until the person they know shows up. We need a climax. We need a great look at the realization the victim has when he understands that he has been pranked. Just the fact that the victim has to be told that it's a prank really takes away from the fun. Let them realize it themselves.

The show is so great. I am unsure of why gabby is part of the cast. She is rude, self absorbed and doesn't get along with Eric Andre and Johnny Knoxville, the girl who is on the show who stared in jackass forever should be the other panelist, at least she can handle a prank or have a laugh. Gabby takes the spotlight and makes the energy seem negative and has a weird vibe because she ruins it with her harsh and horrible comments. I'm all for harsh and horrible jokes. But hers are something else. I think they are meant to be a joke, but her delivery makes it seem so dark and not in a good way. The show is great but she needs to tone it down or learn to get along with others and seem like you are part of the team and not act like you are the boss of them. I like gabby in other stuff but in this she is just not executing it very well.

I think they need someone else or she needs to have an attitude adjustment and be friendly and not Debbie downer.
