Surprise, You've Just Been Punk'd
by: Jason Tanamor
Every Monday night at 9:30 p.m. central standard
time, MTV airs a show called Punk'd. It stars
Ashton Kutcher, Kelso on That 70's Show. In
this show, Kutcher makes it a point to embarrass
celebrities by playing pranks on them, sort of
like a current version of Candid Camera. The only
difference is, Kutcher's version is slightly
crueler, which is probably the reason it's on
MTV.
An example of one of the pranks Kutcher has
accomplished is setting up an illegal gambling
site, in which Seth Green (of Austin Powers
fame), the individual getting Punk'd, believes he
is out for a friendly night of gambling. What
eventually happens is, fake agents who are
supposedly onto this illegal gambling event barge
in and attempt to make arrests. In Kutcher-like
fashion, Green ends up the butt of jokes, ending
with Kutcher and the rest of the crew laughing
and forcing Green to look into the camera.
Of course this is the only thing shown. If the
unedited version was to surface, I'd imagine the
viewers would see Seth Green beating the crap out
of Kutcher for making him pee his pants. Then his
attorney would be called and lawsuits would be
filed, etc. etc.
Having seen this show numerous times, I've
finally come to a conclusion. Ashton Kutcher has
starred on the show, That 70's Show, ever since
the show began, some 100 episodes ago.
I used to be a fan of That 70's Show. That was
until Punk'd came out. The reason I'm not a fan
anymore is, ever since the unleashing of the MTV
series, I don't know which episodes of That 70's
Show are legit.
As I watch weekly, I wait for one of the other
famous actors, including Mila Kunis, Danny
Masterson, and Topher Grace, to be pranked by
Kutcher.
I would love for that to happen. In a bad
episode, (and believe me, there have been many
lately), I want to see Kutcher jump out at his
co-star and yell, "Look into that camera over
there. You're on my new show, Punk'd."
But since it doesn't happen week in and week out,
my only explanation is, the entire viewership of
That 70's Show has been, in fact, Punk'd by
Asthon Kutcher. The only difference is, every
time I look around my house for a hidden camera,
I can't find one.
Of course, unless I'm looking at the hidden
camera in my bedroom closet for the ladies...I'm
just kidding.
