History Series / Punkd

->''"Creator/AshtonKutcher, the famous actor and professional manchild, hosted Creator/{{MTV}}'s ''Punk'd'', a hidden camera show where a team of terrible actors attempted to inflict emotional damage on unsuspecting celebrities, usually by pretending to do something horrible to a stranger and then blaming it on the person being pranked. Sounds hilarious, right? It's as if the creator had seen [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson]] "prank" Ned Flanders into thinking his family had been killed, but he didn't get the joke."''

** The prank on Rob Dyrdek. Almost ''immediately'' after the scene started playing out, Rob had already started calling out how fake this all was. Clearly Music/JustinBieber didn't think this, though. As Rob is a Creator/MTV star, and knows the show ''Punk'd'' very well.

** When Creator/MatthewPerry was featured, he never seemed to buy into the set-up[[note]] a stolen car he was being shown to possibly buy[[/note]]. Even when the cops showed up he wasn't fazed.
** Ashton "quitting" the show after the second series in-part as an attempt to pull one on the audience, and in-part to stop people from immediately figuring out they were being punk'd. When he ended the show in 2007, it was again due to it becoming harder to catch people off-guard.

* UnnecessaryCombatRoll: On Creator/SethGreen's episode, where he had been tricked into believing that a craps game he was at was being raided by cops, one of them did a roll on the floor after [[SuperWindowJump crashing though a glass door]]. After learning it was all a prank Green commented about the guy doing the roll which he thought was "completely unnecessary" at the time.
