The show also helped bring fame to Pete Dzoghi, a man who basically made a career out of doing prank calls before selling them as albums for money. However, this made taping and broadcasting episodes fairly uneven due to many of the celebrities being based in California. So, nearly all the calls are made in Nevada. except for Nevada, which only requires one (i.e., the callers). In the U.S., it is illegal to record and broadcast prank calls without both parties' consent. When not airing prank calls, the show makes the puppets do raunchy explicit things such as go to gay bars, strip clubs, perform public sexual intercourse, enact racist stereotypes, etc. The victims and pranksters are played by Muppet-esque puppets. The premise: transcripts of real prank calls are re-enacted, cutting between the rooms of each end of the call (usually with lots and lots of Background Gags going on). It was revived in 2019 for a Season 5 and again in 2020 for a Season 6. ![]() ![]() Disclaimer before every episode from season 1 through 4Ĭrank Yankers is a live-action and puppet show that used to air on Comedy Central and also for a brief time on MTV2 co-created by Daniel Kellison, Adam Carolla and the far better-known Jimmy Kimmel. ![]()
