Not as good as the Canadian DVD

"I bought this because I watched the DVD in Canada. This is not the same DVD as sold in Canada. The Canadian version was more in depth and lasted much longer. Instead of a minute for each skit, their version took about 10 minutes for each skit. This seemed more like a TV show than the Gags DVD they sell in Canada. It was funny, but I was disappointed that it was not the one I thought I would receive. The Canadian DVD was 10 times better."
Television was due for a show like this....

"This show took a page from Candid Camera and turned it on its side. It re-freshed the concept in that the practical jokes are all visual and done without an annoying voice-over guy. Many of the ideas are timeless and brilliantly funny. The pacing develops the prank in stages by getting reactions from several hapless victims before moving on to the next stage. This helped to build momentum and made many of the reactions priceless. Several of the pranks from this show are floating around the internet including the one of the two coppers in underwear. The only disappointing thing is that the DVDs are too short for the price. But these are not one-watch wonders, the gags are fun to watch over and over. For those with children, the vast majority of the pranks are family friendly. My kids love this show."
All about laughs

"JFL created a masterpiece of light-hearted reasons to laugh. Volume 2 will be joining my collection as soon as it is released!"
Mildly entertaining, a Canadian "Candid Camera"

"If you liked Candid Camera, you will like this series. It is one hour and 21 minutes long but I found myself fast forwarding through a number of gags that just didn't work. I did laugh a few times. Worth a rental; not worth buying."
