Into The Life Of A Joker Research Paper

Improved Essays
Into The Life of a Joker What do most television viewers call a mischievous or malicious person who devises outlandish or even cruel tricks on their friends and people they do not know? I call them pranksters, jesters, tricksters or maybe an impractical joker. Impractical Jokers is a hidden camera television series that stars four childhood friends. On this show Joe Gatto, Sal Vulcano, James Murray and Brian Quinn take outrageous dares to new heights. As long as the four best friends have known each other, they have always challenged one another to perform absurd pranks in public. Impractical Jokers airs on TruTV on Thursdays around nine o’clock. I enjoy watching the show because of the humor and creativity, it brings, there’s always something …show more content…
The catch is, Murr has no idea what the presentation is about. The funny part is that the three other jokers have prepared the speech for him. Those pranks are funny to me, but not only do I appreciate the humor in the show but I also appreciate the creativity. Also, I like the way the game type mixes up each show. There are several game types, team joker challenges, everyman for himself joker challenge. Or joker verses joker challenges, I think he game types are creative. And the way they handle the joker who loses is by far creative, I remember when Joe was the unlucky joker one day. Joe’s punishment was to escape a straitjacket and some chains, Joe was supposed to be a famous escape artist. After a couple mins Joe can’t escape, the crowd started to boo Joe and I bet he was …show more content…
Quinn is hilarious as well as the other jokers, but Quinn has a phlegmatic type of temperament that intertwines with his personality. He is laid back and mellow when it comes to him performing pranks and tricks. Impractical Jokers is truly one of my favorite shows, there’s never a dull moment when watching this show. There’s excitement, moments of anticipation and just plain out funny scenes and schemes. These four guys know how to make the viewer laugh and I must give them full credit for that. I can also say that there isn’t another show on television like Impractical jokers. Impractical Jokers has revolutionized hidden camera pranks and I can’t wait for more new

    Classic Trickster’s represent the traits of sly, cunning, quick thinking, mischievous, recognition. Trickster’s will try to repeatedly annoy the gods to make a name for themselves, or they will commit an act of great proportions that will be heard by their respective realms.

    According to Kring (2014), “the core feature of antisocial personality disorder (ADP) is a pervasive pattern of disregard for the rights of others.” The Joker is at least eighteen years old and shows evidence of conduct disorder before the age of fifteen.
