Dickhouse Productions

''Jackass'' is an American reality comedy television series created by Jeff Tremaine, Spike Jonze, and Johnny Knoxville. It originally aired for three short seasons on MTV between October 2000 and August 2001, with reruns extending into 2002. The show featured a cast of nine carrying out stunts and pranks on each other or the public. The cast included Johnny Knoxville, Bam Margera, Chris Pontius, Dave England, Ryan Dunn, Steve-O, Jason "Wee Man" Acuña, Ehren McGhehey and Preston Lacy.

The show was controversial over its perceived indecency and encouragement of dangerous behavior. After MTV ended ''Jackass'' broadcasts in 2002, it grew into a media franchise, which includes the spin-offs ''Wildboyz'', ''Viva La Bam'', ''Homewrecker'', ''Blastazoid'', ''Bam's Unholy Union'', ''Dr. Steve-O'', ''Bam's World Domination'', and ''Bam's Bad Ass Game Show''; nine feature films released by Paramount Pictures, four with expanded DVD versions; a video game; a mobile game, a DVD of unreleased bits not used in the original TV show, a short-lived website featuring blogs and videos, merchandise, and several other videos released by various other means. The show placed 68th on ''Entertainment Weekly'' "New TV Classics" list, and is a significant part in 2000s American popular culture.

History

Background

Origins and casting

In the late 1990s, aspiring actor and writer Johnny Knoxville had moved from Knoxville to Los Angeles and landed work in commercials in order to support his wife and infant daughter. Among his ideas was to produce an article that involved testing various self-defense equipment on himself as a homage to his hero, gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. The magazines that contacted him refused to cover the story due to liability concerns, but in 1996, Knoxville was contacted by '' Big Brother'', a skateboarding magazine for which Jeff Tremaine was an editor, and convinced Knoxville to do the stunt and film it. The stunt featured Knoxville testing out pepper spray, a stun gun, a taser, and a .38 caliber gun with a bulletproof vest, which was included in ''Big Brother'' video entitled ''Number Two'', which also featured an appearance by future ''Jackass'' cast member Jason "Wee Man" Acuña. Other contributors to ''Big Brother'' at this time were Chris Pontius, and Dave England, who went on to become a part of the ''Jackass'' crew, Dimitry Elyashkevich, who became a cinematographer, Rick Kosick who became a cameraman, and Sean Cliver, who became a photographer.

Around this time, Pennsylvania resident and professional skateboarder Bam Margera was filming his family and friends, collectively known as the CKY crew (short for "Camp Kill Yourself") and released them on home video as part of the ''CKY'' video series. The videos featured stunts, pranks, and skateboarding with a cast that included Ryan Dunn, Brandon DiCamillo, Raab Himself, Rake Yohn and Margera's family, mother April, father Phil, uncle Don Vito, and elder brother Jess. Like the ''Big Brother'' videos, the ''CKY'' releases became a cult hit and attracted the attention of Tremaine, who flew Margera to Los Angeles in 1999 and saw the second ''CKY'' video, ''CKY2K''.

The video convinced Tremaine that the CKY group would suit the idea of a stunt and prank television show that Knoxville, Spike Jonze, and himself had been planning. After demo footage had been shot and pitched to several networks, ''Saturday Night Live'' offered to make them subject of a recurring segment on the show. The offer was rejected, as a bidding war between Comedy Central and MTV resulted in the three accepting a deal from the latter for a half-hour weekly show and greater creative control. Knoxville, Tremaine, and Jonze are credited as executive producers. Van Toffler, president of MTV, said: "We just knew there were a bunch of knuckleheads out there who had a very high tolerance for stupidity and pain."

Soon after the MTV deal, Tremaine approached Florida native Steve-O where he worked as a clown at a flea market, and had him film videos of his stunts for the television show, but none were cleared by MTV management. To round out the cast, England brought in his friend Ehren McGhehey, a fellow Oregon resident and extreme stunt participant. Preston Lacy would be the last of what is now considered the main cast to join, after he and Knoxville worked together with Knoxville's ex-wife's clothing line. Knoxville told Preston that he was making a new TV show and he asked him if he could write some ideas. Knoxville then convinced Preston to perform the stunts himself.

The show debuted on October 1, 2000. After the second episode had aired MTV gained its highest Sunday ratings in its history, drawing 2.4 million viewers among 12- to 34-year-olds, its target demographic.

Finale

In a 2001 interview with ''Rolling Stone'', Knoxville questioned how long the MTV show could last, and soon after announced that the series would end after its third season aired. He also stated discontent with MTV and the censors, who, from the start of season two, increasingly gave notes regarding what the show could and could not depict. In addition, Steve-O claimed that the cast salaries paid by MTV were meager. Because of problems with MTV's standards and practices department, the Jackass crew did not attempt to create a finale to bring the show to a close.

Main series

Controversies

At the time of its first broadcast in 2000, ''Jackass'' frequently featured warnings and disclaimers noting that the stunts performed were very dangerous and should not be imitated. Such warnings not only appeared before and after each program and after each commercial break, but also in a "crawl" that ran along the bottom of the screen during some especially risky stunts, as well as showing their "skull and crutches" logo at the bottom right of the screen to symbolize the stunt performed as risky. Nevertheless, the program was blamed for a number of deaths and injuries involving teens and children recreating the stunts.

Connecticut Senator Joe Lieberman followed up with a February 7, 2001 letter to MTV's parent company Viacom urging the company to take greater responsibility for its programming and do more to help parents protect their children. MTV responded to the criticism by canceling all airings of ''Jackass'' before 10 p.m., but Lieberman's continual campaign against the show led to MTV refusing to air repeats of the later episodes, a move which angered the cast and production crew of the series who were furious with MTV's "caving into Lieberman's demands".

A Montana man named Jack Ass sued MTV for $10 million in 2002, claiming that the show was plagiarizing his name. Jack Ass, whose birth name was Bob Craft (died 2003), changed his name in 1997 to raise awareness for drunk driving, after his brother and friend both died in a car accident. Johnny Knoxville, one of the show's creator, refuted the lawsuit stating "What could be more American than just suing the living shit out of someone for no reason at all?"

Matt-Dillion Shannon, an 18-year-old from Napier, New Zealand, was sentenced on November 23, 2012, to three years in prison on a charge of causing grievous bodily harm for his role in the August 2011 dousing of a 16-year-old with gasoline and setting him on fire. Shannon's lawyer claimed that this act was inspired by the ''Jackass'' series, despite the fact that no such stunt ever aired on the show.

Home media

MTV released a four disc DVD box set entitled ''Jackass: The Box Set'' on December 6, 2005. This set does not contain the three complete seasons as they originally aired, but rather recompilations, each including stunts from all three seasons, arranged into 3 volumes of "episodes". There are also additional commentaries for numerous stunts, a Jackass trivia game, still photo gallery, and cast bios. The fourth disc includes the only 1-hour episode of the crew's trip to the Gumball 3000 rally, a special "Where Are They Now?" documentary, ''MTV Cribs: Jackass Edition'', and appearances by the crew at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards and the 2002 MTV Latin America Video Music Awards. The set contains a 48-page collector's booklet of rare photos and inside stories on the history of Jackass.

The second and third volumes of this box set had previously been released separately on December 10, 2002, two months after "Jackass: The Movie" had been released. The first volume was released by itself on January 23, 2006. The fourth "bonus disc" has never been released separately.

Another compilation of stunts from the television series was released on October 11, 2009 on a single DVD entitled ''Jackass: The Lost Tapes'', again arranged into individual "episodes". They feature all the remaining stunts from the show that weren't included in "The Box Set", such as "Self Defense Test", "Stun Collar", "Unicycle Poo Barf", "Fast Food Football", "Roller Jump", and the original and controversial "Satan vs. God". The compilation also includes stunts filmed for the TV series but were never aired, usually for censorship reasons. The DVD's various bonus features include every opening to every televised episode of Jackass, original credit montages from each televised episode, and an inside look at the short-lived website jackassworld.com, featuring various skits.

Beginning in 2013, various other box sets have been released in the USA and UK that combine the original box set, with or without the bonus disc (Gumball Rally 3000, etc), with the lost tapes disc, and often with all the movies released up to that point (5 or 7), in their unrated expanded versions.

Spin-offs and life after ''Jackass''

When the TV series ended, each member of the cast found new work in movies and television, each gaining his own degree of success. Knoxville pursued a career as an actor, appearing in such films as the 2004 remake of '' Walking Tall'', ''The Dukes of Hazzard'', ''Men in Black II'', '' The Ringer'', ''A Dirty Shame'', '' Big Trouble'', '' Coyote Ugly'', '' The Last Stand'', ''Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'', and ''Skiptrace''.

Margera and the CKY crew were given their own spin-off show ''Viva La Bam'', which followed Margera and his family, who were often made the victim of the clique's practical jokes. Bam and the crew also had a radio show from 2004 until 2013 called ''Radio Bam'' on Sirius radio. Margera has also been featured in ''Bam's Unholy Union'', following him and his fiancé Missy Rothstein in the run-up to their wedding, while Brandon DiCamillo and Rake Yohn featured in ''Blastazoid'', a short-lived show about video games.

When ''Viva La Bam'' finished its run, Ryan Dunn, who was part of Bam's crew on ''Viva La Bam'', was given his own show ''Homewrecker'', in which he found revenge for helpless victims of practical jokes by renovating the prankster's room according to the original incident. The show only lasted one season. On June 20, 2011, Dunn was killed in a car crash while driving intoxicated in Pennsylvania.

Pontius and Steve-O were also given their own spin-off show ''Wildboyz''. Unlike ''Jackass'' and ''Viva La Bam'', ''Wildboyz'' rejected the formula of practical jokes and instead featured the two traveling the world in search of wild and exotic animals. Directed by Jackass director Jeff Tremaine, ''Wildboyz'' featured frequent guest appearances by fellow Jackasses Johnny Knoxville, and Wee Man, as well as recurring ''Jackass'' guests Loomis Fall, Manny Puig, Tony Hawk, and Mat Hoffman.

One year after ''Jackass Number Two'' was released, Steve-O was given a new spin-off titled ''Dr. Steve-O''. It came out in 2007 on the USA Network channel. In this spin-off Steve-O acted as a doctor to help men overcome their fears, thus the headline created by Steve-O, "Turning wussies into men." In every episode, Dr. Steve-O helped three different men, and made them complete three challenges to overcome their fears.

Two days before ''Jackass 3D'' came out, Bam Margera and Ryan Dunn starred in a half-hour TV special titled ''Bam's World Domination''. In this special, Bam and Dunn, along with skateboarder Tim O'Connor, participated in The Tough Guy Competition. This special aired on SpikeTV.

After '' Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa'' was released, Bam Margera created a new spin-off titled ''Bam's Bad Ass Game Show'', which aired on TBS in 2014. Bam, along with Brandon Novak, both hosted the game show. The contestants were instructed to perform a series of stunts while competing against each other, in the hope of winning the grand prize of $10,000.

Sean "Poopies" McInerney, one of the new cast members of ''Jackass Forever'', will have a spin-off titled ''What Not To Do'', which will air on Discovery+.

Films

''Jackass: The Movie'' (2002)

After the show went off the air, the cast reunited in 2002 to film what they believed would be the conclusion of ''Jackass'': a full-length motion picture version of the show entitled ''Jackass: The Movie''. The cast made it clear that the film was their "farewell" to the fans of the show, and with the franchise taking the movie format, the cast and crew were now allowed to circumvent the censors, showing more vulgar stunts than the ones featured on the TV show. Despite earlier disagreements, MTV Films assisted in the film's distribution.

The film, shot on a budget of just $5 million, went on to gross over $60 million in the United States alone, and finished in the #1 spot at the box office during its debut weekend.

''Jackass Number Two'' (2006)

With the release of ''Jackass: The Movie'', director Tremaine and the rest of the cast believed that ''Jackass'' was finished and there would be no further projects under the franchise. However, during the final season of ''Wildboyz'', Knoxville joined his former castmates Pontius and Steve-O on various expeditions around the world. It was said that Knoxville went so far out during the filming of the show that Tremaine pulled him aside and said "If you're willing to go this all out, why not get all the guys together and shoot another movie?" Knoxville agreed, and with both ''Viva La Bam'' and ''Wildboyz'' finishing their runs, the entire cast was available to reunite and film the sequel."The Making of ''Jackass Number Two''", ''Jackass Number Two (Unrated Special Collector's Edition)'' (DVD), 2006, Paramount Pictures / MTV Films, ASIN: B000JLTRJK.

''Jackass Number Two'' was released on September 22, 2006, produced by MTV Films and distributed by Paramount Pictures. As was the case with its predecessor, ''Jackass Number Two'' topped the box office in its debut weekend, earning $29.01 million. Footage for several stunts featured Bam Margera's uncle Vincent "Don Vito" Margera, but this was removed from the theatrical and DVD release due to his arrest and conviction on two counts of sexual assault on a minor.

On September 7, 2006, MTV featured a half-hour documentary of ''Jackass: Number Two''. When asked if the film meant the end of ''Jackass'', cast member Steve-O jokingly commented that the people who made money from the franchise ''still'' wanted money, hinting that the cast would still continue the franchise in one form or another. At the conclusion of the documentary, Johnny Knoxville reveals that he "had a hard time letting go" because he is "so hooked on doing stunts." Cameraman Dimitry Elyashkevich reveals that weeks after the film, Knoxville was so desperate to shoot that he would film himself running into street signs just for the sake of additional footage.

''Jackass 2.5'' (2007)

On September 5, 2007, Bam Margera announced the release of ''Jackass 2.5'' on ''The Howard Stern Show'', a compilation DVD of stunts that did not make it to ''Jackass Number Two''.Bam Margera, September 5, 2007, on ''The Howard Stern Show'' The DVD was released on December 26, 2007.

''Jackass 3D'' (2010)

In an August 2009 interview with ''The Times-Picayune'', Knoxville, on the topic of Steve-O's recovery and rehabilitation, said, "He's taking to sobriety like he took to drugs and alcohol, I'm very proud of him. I think we'll see him doing some stuff here really soon. As a matter of fact, I know we are." He later stated "Something's coming. We're pretty excited." Later, he added, "I think it'll be a big year next year, but I don't want to talk about it yet ..."

In September 2009, Margera revealed to ''Iltalehti'', a Finnish newspaper, that a ''Jackass 3'' would be made and filmed in places like Mongolia, South Africa and Finland as well as the United States starting in January 2010. He then confirmed it again on Radio Bam on September 21, 2009. In early December, Knoxville confirmed that ''Jackass 3'' was being made. In April 2010, a brief blurb about ''Jackass 3D'', titled "gone filmin, appeared on the Jackassworld website: "Thanks for the support the past two years.

In July 2019, former cast member Chris Raab said that he had interviewed the ''Jackass'' crew on his ''Bathroom Break'' podcast and noted that everyone was still open to a fourth film should Knoxville, Tremaine, and Spike Jonze agree.
