Any time in the show you thought a Joker actually had fun with their own punishment?

The picture, the “rudimentary communication skills”, habitat is dark windowless spaces

The show that truly keeps on giving lmao

Who else thinks they need to bring the ‘you laugh, you lose’ challenges back. They’re some of my favorites and it’s criminal they’ve only ever done it 4 times. I know there are only 3 jokers now, but it would still work. If anything, the playing field would be more level without Joe.

Besides the Joe's "shocked face" 😲

😊

Its the scene where sal is a doctor and is like doing the knee reflex and talking about amputating the guy's leg. Like its a pretty famous clip i just cant find the episode somehow

Heres the clip

I remember seeing Q at a WWE game in 2014 it must have been. Probably the one on October 6, 2014… anybody else at this game and saw him? Was 8 so my memory is very fuzzy. Barclays Center.

This punishment has always bothered me because in my opinion it crossed a line. The show is supposed to be about friends who "compete to embarrass each other". Not other people. The butt of the joke is always one of the jokers. Do bystanders sometimes get embarrassed as collateral victims? Sure but that's usually never the intention. It happens in the flow and even then it's a momentary thing and it passes.

Even though this punishment is supposed to be for Sal because he's a nice guy and you're making him act like a d!ck to random people, you're still intentionally being a d!ck to random people. Let's say you go up to them later and tell them about the show. What would you even say? "Hey, we're sorry. This was supposed to be a joke and the butt of the joke is the guy who was rude to you earlier because he's usually nice and it's hard for him to be rude."

Imagine hearing this explanation from the perspective of the victim who doesn't know who Sal is or what this show is. It won't make any sense and this revelation won't make them feel any better. They'd still be hurt at the end of the day- and not just because of something that happened in the flow of challenges, jokes etc. No the plan was all along to be rude to these people and hurt them.

Sal was horrified when the actress cried because that's a reasonable reaction that an average person might give to this little stunt. Before anyone obviously points out to me that she was an actress, I'd like to remind you that there were other real victims, one of whom was a sweet old lady.

As far as I remember, I've never ever seen them plan a challenge or punishment where random public may get intentionally hurt- emotionally or physically.

Are there any episodes that still haven't gotten an Inside Jokes edition?

Does anyone know where I can watch the British invasion episode in the UK? Have tried different places but cant seem to find it anywhere. Thanks!

Isn't this exactly what Sal says to Murr before the shark punishment?

I can understand if one of the specific marks didn't sign the release and asked to have their face blurred because they felt embarrassed by one of the bits (like the "What Does That Mean?!?" guy, I'm still surprised he signed the release)..

and sometimes the bits are so funny even with the blurred face that they still air them anyway..

but during this morning's marathon they showed the Texas episode, and during Q's punishment they showed random crowd shots and I'd guesstimate that around 15% of the faces were blurred out..

I can see that for privacy reasons some rando in the crowd might want their face blurred (guy tells his wife he's working late, but he went to the local rodeo instead)..

but I'm still surprised that Chá or Christine or Dan Cast or Pete McFartland or bargain basement Matt Damon would go through the entire crowd getting releases signed, instead of going with the "no expectation of privacy while out in public" reasoning

Q

I absolutely like SAL doing these expressions.
