Punk’d Comes to an End

Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Reality, Cable, Cable/Satellite

Ashton Kutcher This is it, folks. The final season of Punk’d, the Ashton Kutcher celebrity prank show. The series has had a successful run on MTV over the last eight seasons. Gotta say, there is something gratifying about seeing the rich and famous having it stuck to them. This sure as heck beats the pants off of those old “Practical Jokes” shows that Ed McMahon and Dick Clark used to do. The last season begins April 10th, but you can catch the entire eight episodes in a back-to-back marathon on April 7th. Be on the lookout for the latest celebs to be Punk’d : Jewel, Magic Johnson, Hilary Swank, and Nelly Furtado are among the famous faces. And, to top it all off, Kutcher will have a final special called Punk’d Awards on June 5th.

This series has a big upside potential for hidden-camera humor.” So far, no word on when the series will air.
