The premise is interesting to me... the rating of misery on a scale.
a plus is jameela, i love her since the good place. impractical jokers are ok but it's not something i'd rate higher than a 6?7? - actually, come to think of it.. challenging someone to make an idiot of himself & prank others never made me die of laughter..?
so anyway.. back to the misery index.. given the increase in negative emotions, depression ... this rating system makes me smirk and definitely puts some s*** into perspective for me. (my second day of migraine, the weather makes you suicidal here, and i feel there is no light at the end of the tunnel... & that the tunnel is in fact a neverending spiral.. -
but hey at least i have all my toes and fingers, wasn't attacked by a swarm of bees, didn't lose my tongue & won't have an accident in an elevator today.
if you need something light ..give it a try

I love impractical jokers and saw they had a new game show so I had to record it. So far it's interesting of course you got impractical jokers on here so it makes it more fun to watch but Other people might have mix reviews about this and have to understand the concept of the game.

I absolutely love the Tenderloins and I'm a huge fan of Impractical Jokers. My first problem with this new "game" show is the host, she is trying too hard to be one of the guys and it comes off awkward and desperate. Secondly who are these supposed experts that are rating all these experiences ? Everyone handles things in their own way and it's ridiculous to generalize them and put a number on it. The only thing keeping this crap afloat is Q, Sal, Murr, and Joe and I'm afraid even they won't be able to do it for too long.
The show is enjoyable and amusing. However, the format could use some work. It seems less than fair that the person who gets the last answer right can win. How about a fast head to head misery playoff?
The host is phenomenal. She challenges the Tenderloins without trying to be one. It takes someone on their toes - and on their game - to keep up with those guys. I find her impressive. The guys are amusing as always.

Impractical Jokers is such a great show, so it's not crazy that they want to capitalize on its success. I really wanted to like this show, but it's such a disappointment. It's so contrived and forced, the host is annoying and the premise of the show is not believable. Ranking misery?! Just disappointed and hope this flop doesn't hurt the impractical jokers' success.

This is one of those perfect "just have it on" shows. Every now and then you check in to see what's going on. It's entertaining enough. Looking forward to more episodes.

I'm a jokers fan so I'm bias but this is actually a decent little game show. It's entertaining, funny and if you are a jokers fan check it out.

I love the show. The jokers are hilarious as usual and I enjoy the concept of the game. But the host is almost unbearable! She has no chemistry with the jokers or anyone else she interacts with and she just doesn't seem genuine. She kinda has a snobby attitude and demeanor about her. She doesn't feel relatable to the audience. I would give it a 10/10 if it weren't for the host. Hopefully they'll replace her in the future.

I'm a HUGE fan of Impractical Jokers!
However, this game show is too plain & boring, its not going to make it to season 2.

This may be biased since I'm a huge Impractical jokers fan but I found this show to be very funny and worthy the watch , and will be watching again. Love the show give it a chance !

When this show first premiered, I thought, "What a total cash grab." I had to really want to like it because of that cynical premise. And yeah, at first, Jameela Jamil seemed like a square peg in the round hole... she tried very, very hard to have "chemistry" with the Tenderloins and it was like a very awkward party where people were thrown together in a room and forcing themselves to like each other. That awkwardness has abated somewhat as they continue to work with each other. Which is what it is, a job.
Putting aside the fact that there are some truly nauseating and horrifying events depicted on this program, and everyone has the option of just turning away from the screen at that point, the show itself seems like a great exhibit of a random number generator. "Let's just throw out a bunch of numbers and see who guesses the closest." Which, essentially, is what it is. It's like a raffle, if you really think about it. I honestly think no "professionals" have been involved in evaluating any of these situations, because some situations that you think would be horribly painful, embarrassing or traumatic, get numbers in the low 20s, for Pete's sake. And seemingly trivial events, like getting trapped in a foldout couch while someone is recording the whole thing, get some pretty high numbers. There is an arbitrariness to it. But then as the show progressed, it grew on me. I realized that it's not about the game itself, or about watching gross videos, it's about the interactions between the Tenderloins themselves, and with Jameela and with the contestants. When I decided to drop any pretense of thinking of this as a game show, I really started to enjoy it. Relax and enjoy the pretty colors and the blinking lights. :)

Host is terrible and awkward at best. The tenderloins try but the game just doesn't have enough substance to make this work.

This garbage (I refuse to call it a show) is horrid, cruel and useless. Where is the Social Warriors & their cancel culture when they are really needed? Is this tbe best "woke" Hollywood can deliver? And to think you idiots can't even blame Trump.

I like this show funny as hell. Record every show. However, the people that rate them I feel are not doing a good job in what is the highest. I am watching S2/E5. They said at the age of 70 getting circumcised that old is worst (really they are not accidentally joining isis. If you are a true American trapped for the rest of your maybe. If hey get more accurate in my opinion I feel it would be an even better show than what it already is.

Love impractical jokers. Love the Tenderloins. But this show sucks. And that's being kind. It's a shameless vehicle that provides absolutely nothing. I honestly believe it's only on tv to help Q and Murray get dates. How pathetic is that? Save your time, the weather channel is more interesting.

If the impractical jokers weren't on the show. If your maturity level rates above a 13 year old boys', they are difficult to find funny. They do seem nice enough though.
I also think it could be much better if there was more female input on the show itself. What the creators find interesting or funny is pretty limited. Or simple. They need someone capable of critical thought.

Not only is this show not at all a game show, just a show with a random selection of numbers that are seemingly just randomly placed.
It also sadly fails to be funny even in the slightest

I find this show to be hilarious. I've never watched Impractical Jokers (never appealed) and only familar with Jamila from The Good Place, but this show is really good. I record and watch it every week. Better than some of the games shows on nowadays. I hope it continues for a while. No shortage of material to use.

The host is CRINGY and not funny! She may be good in something else but she definitely ISN'T funny at all on here. Her awkwardness makes me feel awkward. The jokers are funny but this show is a NO overall !

What is the point in keeping score when whoever answers the last question wins the show? The host, whatever her name is, isn't funny, the videos are horrible, not funny, and the poor joker's are out of their element. It's a train wreck. It's unfortunate, I love the Tenderloin's, we have seen then in person and they manage to make talking about Impractical Joker's funny, but this show isn't funny, I really wish it was.

This wretched thing sits underneath the container that contains all the worst game shows ever. The host is embarassing to watch (is this person even from this planet?)
Do yurself a favor and re-tile your bathroom floor instead of watching this horrid mess.
It will be SOOOOOOOO much more entertaining.
(who is the alien from Planet of the Freaks that thought this thing up?)
The only thing that ruins the show is the results. The numbers in the misery index are determined by "shrinks" who apparently can't even type the word shrink, because the pontuation makes absolutely zero sense and therefor, making it impossible to win the rounds with your brain and having to count only on pure luck.
Example: "a woman is sent to the hospital after putting pop tarts in her vagina and having problems" This was rated 40. Then "woman go to surgery to remove her bladder and then found the removed bladder in her bag with her clothes" A funny, harmless, painless story, but the moron shrinks rated as 64!!!!!! LOL
