i really enjoyed this show, contrary to what the critics said -
these last couple of episodes with brad pitt have been especially funny.

sad to see it go

well this just sucks ass.

Bring back Beavis and Butthead!

I'm glad he cancelled the show. If this were to go on for another 22 episodes the stunts would get stale and the show would lose a lot of it's appeal. I think he recognized the show thrives off of it's originality and it's much easier to come up with an hour of side-splitting material for an mtv special then to come up with 22 episodes worth of so-so material.

While I would like to see a few more, the quit while youre ahead theory is best. What baffles me is that all the shows rerun now will be edited? What the Hell? Either respect the damn show for what it is and dont cave in to being offensive by editing it, or just dont show it at all.

Yeah, I'm pretty close too. I live in Knoxville,TN, my bro is in the auto busness and has dealt with Johnny's father, who owns an auto parts store, plus being in the "alternative scene" I know quite a few people who remember/brushed paths with Johnny Knoxville (aka PJ Clapp). I'm told I was at a party he was at/threw but I dont recall him.

Where's the grave?.....so I can dance on it.

Perhaps another victory in the battle against the "dumbing down" of society? A battle that is bound to be lost though, I suppose.

everyone was a "hero" dialing up there cell phones
but the only guy who tried to do anything made it clear that he wasn't gonna do anything this one was a classic - sad to see the show is gonna be ending so soon

I know Jackass was cancelled, and there haven't been any new episodes since, but after that happened in August, during the MTV Music Video Awards in September, they had a big commercial that said "All-New Episodes of Jackass, Coming Soon". So I thought they had come to an agreement and were going to have new ones again. But still no new episodes. Anyone know anything?

Also, did anyone watch Sledgehammer (not Sledge Hammer!) on VH1? Kind of like Jackass, or at least the parts where they play pranks on the unsuspecting public. That was pretty funny too, but I only saw a couple episodes (I think there were only 5 or 6 made), and now it's not on the schedule anymore. Was that cancelled too?

is that show done now? are they making any new episodes?

if im not mistaken, i believe whats his butt stopped making them. I believe its because they had no new material. but i could be wrong.

Actually they're still doing the occasional special and from what I've read, there may actually be a theatrical movie release.

Yeah, for lack of a better term, Johnny Knoxville "Went Hollywood" (he has a few movies coming out, Big trouble, Men in Black 2, and somehting else) and decided that the whole Jackass thing would grow tired after awhile so they all pretty much agreed to stop while they were ahead. Tom Green did, pretty much, the same thing, and they, like him, are just going to focus on doing a few Jackass specials. Apparently they have been filming a movie; last I heard they were in Austrialia with Steve "The Crocodile Hunter" Irwin doing stuff with him, I guess, for their movie.

Knoxville said in an interview that MTV basically treated them like crap. They never promoted the show, gave them a bad time slot and overall took them for granted even though they were the highest rated show on MTV. Not to mention constant battles with the MTV sensors over what they could and couldnt air. If your looking for a Jackass fix cheeck out Steve O's new video its insane.

The concept of this show worked great for 4-5 minute bits, but a feature film? That might be stretching it a little too far.
It might be pretty good to see what they could do without sensors though.

Here's an article about the show. It only contains a blurb about the upcoming movie, but I thought it might be of interest.

BTW, it comes on after the Osbournes, on Tuesday's. Not sure if it comes on at other times though... I only watch:

Making the band (EVEN THOUGH THE SEASON IS OVER )
Real World / Road Rules
The Osbournes
Tough Enough

Actually it's been on at 10c for 2 weeks now don't know how long this is for.

It was on Wed night.

Good riddance. All the guys were obnoxious.

I haven't seen it. Only heard about it.

I havent seen it on recently. I actually think there were two episodes with him.

Does he get put on by the Jackass crew, or does he join them?

Brad Pitt is on the walk-way. Like going to club, bunch of people around, when a van pulls up and grabs Brad and takes him away in the van. Everybody up in arms.


Another time they ran around in Monkey Suits, in the streets.
