Crank Yankers (2019– ) User Reviews

Just not the same.

I was excited to hear this show was coming back. However, it's been nothing but one disappointment after the after.

Niles is annoying, not funny and stupid. Wanda Sykes voice is more irritating than ever. Jimmy Kimmel doesn't know what funny is anymore. Sarah Silverman does the same lame gag over and over again. Spoony Love might've made me smirk once or twice, but could do better. The old guy character has been buried this time around, failing to gain any amusment at all. Jeffrey Ross bombs most of the time with the garbage he has to work with here. I love Aubry Plaza, but she stinks in every episode she's on here.... and the real question every original Crank Yankers fan wants to know. WHERE IS SPECIAL ED???? Enough with the burping, Florentine. 20 episodes in and no ED? No YEYYYs from anyone. All we wanted was new Ed calls, and we get zilch. BOOOO.

Great children's entertainment too adult for children and too childish for adults.

I don't know; there must be an audience for a plot-less prank call show with the plots acted out by puppets with stereotypical acting and clichebackgrounds- I just don't find it funny. At all.

Back in the day here in Canada, when South park used to come on Comedy Channel this would come on soon after, and I honestly tried to watch it a few times when I was a kid, while I was supposed to be in bed, staying up late to watch the grown up shows. I don't know I must have been 12 or 14 or something and I found it annoying, even then.

I find it all but unbearable now. I've never liked Jimmy Kimmel. Not on The man Show not as a night show host and definitely not his production work on this. Look at the names they get for this - Wanda Sykes, Adam Carolla, etc, so, obviously for the cheap recording of the phone calls and the fairly cheap puppet enactment, a major budget is spent on the show's poor script writing and post-production which, for me, I can't imagine how much, but I'm sure whatever the budget for this low-grade entertainment, too much. Combine that with eating up valuable air time and I have a very hard time justifying this show being on at all. I'm sure this is an easy way to inflate Jimmy Kimmel's already substantial paycheck and a way for him to keep some of his cronies who he came up with relevant, other than that I have no idea why this is back on the air.

Even more disgusting than ever

This show is much worse than Wonder Showzen the most innapropriate show on Mtv come on this show is so cancerous just like The Problem Solverz a show that makes everyone's eyes burn to death and far too disgusting just like Almost Naked Animals and The Nutshack.
