Review of Punk'd

Punk'd (2003–2015)
Soon to be washed up actor laughs at others of a higher fame.
25 January 2004
Once again MTV brings us another great look into the life of famous people and their houses that take huge collective dump all over ours. This tried to be like a candid camera meeting Jackass, only with celebrities that we have heard of and have come to love or hate. And who is at the middle of this whole thing? Ashton Kutcher.

At the time of writing this, his first real attempt at dramatic acting in the movie called 'The Butterfly Effect' was laughed off screen at the Sundance and is critically bashed. But that really has nothing to do with this, other than the fact it is a nice and most likely spot on assumption that in 3 or 4 years that Ashton will be nothing than a fading annoyance of memory. The ribs he pulls are really meant hearted and he laughs at his famous 'friends' as it happens. Frankly, if I was 'Punk'd' and saw this show with this twirp laughing at me... I'd have to knock his skrawny ass all the way out of the business.

So in the end all that was given was a short lived, mean spirited show starring a talentless punk pulling harsh pranks on his 'friends'. Thank you television for making everyone just a little more dumber.
