I am watching PUNK'D on MTV (Pluto TV Streaming)
It's the Ashton Kutcher series.
Anyway, I loved that show and some of the pranks were brilliant and tasteful.
However, I saw one where Jennifer Love Hewitt was at a studio being offered a role. At this point in her career she was tanking and probably needed a good come back role.
They bring her into a studio and pitch her the lead actress role for a Blockbuster War movie playing opposite of Brad Pitt. The look on her face was what caught my eye. She looked genuinely relieved, as if she was thinking "Thank You God, I Need This!" So sweet.
Then you find out it's just PUNK'D on MTv. It felt kind of hateful to me.

That was a messed up one because angry guys came in and who knows what they would do. That was an idiotic way to punk someone. Making them think their life might be in danger.

The show got an extra season years later. Then we got 2 revivals, one in 2015 and the other this year. I just saw the latter.
The funniest episode was the Liza Koshy one. It was hard to enjoy the Sabrina Carpenter one because she started to cry. I know it's a show about pranks, but there's a difference between seeing people getting angry or scared and people getting sad.

I don’t think I ever watched that one. That does sound a bit mean!
There was a show called The Jamie Kennedy Experiment that had some clever pranks. One that had me in stitches was set in a Japanese restaurant supposedly owned by a white guy (played by Jamie Kennedy) married to a Japanese woman. The mark was another guy who could speak fluent Japanese, but who didn’t look Japanese. His friends, who were in on it, had brought him there. They are at their table and the wife of the owner starts talking in Japanese to the Japanese waiters, saying all kinds of horrible things about her “husband” right in front of him. The “husband”/”owner” just stands there smiling politely to the guests, unaware that his “employees” and his “wife” are insulting him. The mark can understand everything and can’t believe what he is hearing!
