I Am Surprised That I Like The Show "Impractical Jokers"

There are 20+ tv's at the gym and depending on which machine you're on and for how long, you can catch a tv show or news or sports or whatever. They started putting on this channel with a show called "Impractical Jokers." At first I thought I would hate it thinking it was like that "Jackass" show 30 years ago, but it's actually very funny. It's a little bit like Candid Camera, only more out there. 4 guys are friends and they dare each other to do things and bet on whether or not a stranger will react to what they're doing. Here, I found an AI Overview that explains it better than I can. "Impractical Jokers features four lifelong friends who challenge each other to perform absurd, embarrassing public dares captured with hidden cameras. The jokers must follow commands from their friends, with the one who fails most facing an over-the-top punishment. Known for its mix of improv, slapstick, and genuine reactions, it has earned strong fan loyalty." In my research just now I learned that the show's been on since 2011. An example of something silly they do is this guy dressed up like, well I don't know what, and went into a bowling alley and would stand in front of the people that were trying to throw their balls down the alley and he would pretend to be talking on the phone. Then when they'd ask him to move, he'd take out a wad of one dollar bills and throw them at them. Have you ever seen this show? Do you like it?
