The cast of the MTV show performs a series of stunts and skits.
When I was in high school, a series of video tapes made it around my neighborhood, showing a bunch of twenty-somethings (skateboarders?) doing various "pranks" and skits. Soon, a ton of the guys in my neighborhood were making their own tapes. Thus I was shown many variations of property damage and dudes, like, farting in each others' faces in the name of being "edgy". Then shortly after college, I lived above a bar. All this is to say that the raucous laughter and smashed glass of young men who don't realize that they're not funny or edgy, they're just obnoxious is something I don't need any more of in this lifetime.
So anyway, this was 90 minutes of that. Only this also involved animal abuse and the harassment of random bystanders. The shot of the dead cat floating in the river is where I fully checked out of this one.
I laughed exactly one time: when a concussed Johnny Knoxville slurred out "But is Butterbean okay?" after the former boxing champ had beaten him into unconsciousness.
What a waste of time.
