Info

truTV Presents: World's Dumbest... is a cable television series produced by Meetinghouse Productions, Inc. and is airing on truTV. Originally known as World's Dumbest Criminals, it is a weekly countdown that takes a comedic look at 20 half-witted and offbeat events caught on camera and sometimes by 911 dispatchers. These events are now broken down into topics such as Criminals, Drivers, Daredevils, Partiers, etc. and features commentary from B to C-list comedians and writers such as Jared Logan, Chris Fairbanks, Kevin McCaffrey, Jaime Andrews, Brendon Walsh, Ted Jessup, Brad Loekle, Daisy Gardner, Billy Kimball, Mike Trainor, John Enos, Jamie Lee, Rachel Feinstein, Mike O'Gorman, Amanda Landry, and Gilbert Gottfried. Because the series' original focus was on criminals bungling their acts of crime, commentary used to rely heavily on celebrities who have been known for their own past brushes with the law, including Danny Bonaduce, Leif Garrett, Tonya Harding, Todd Bridges, Daniel Baldwin, and Gary Busey. Often times, and when video clips have no audio track, sound effects and mock commentators are added to enhance the humor of the events.

World's Dumbest... Audience Reviews

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
Siflutter It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
U.N. Owen I've been watching World's Dumbest practically since it 1st aired.While it's not 'high brow,' it IS funny. The old adage, that says you throw enough stuff at a wall, and something will stick, is true. Like a burlesque comedian, who just keeps spitting out jokes,the large cast provides enough material,that there's something EVERYONE will find funny.My personal raves are (in alphabetical order); Danny Bonaduce, Todd Bridges, Judy Gold, Brad Loekle, and Chuck Nice. My absolute LEAST favorite is Frank Stallone (ugh!)There are a bunch of 'one-offs' - people who appear for an episode, here and there,mso the cast is always interesting.It's been a staple of mine, to watch World's Dumbest every Thursday night, before bed, for a number of years now.It's the only thing on Tru TV that's watchable.
chips-19 It's no secret that most of TruTV's shows are just "Extreme" versions of other cable shows. Really, they are pretty much the same show, and that is the only reason people bash them, because they are fans of the others. Now here's what I say: WHO CARES IF ITS A RIPOFF, ITS A REALITY SHOW!!! seriously, if it is a reality show, how can it be a true ripoff, as reality cannot rip off reality. Pawn Stars/Hardcore Pawn, Storage Wars/Storage Hunters, Americas Funniest Home Videos/It Hurts when I Laugh. This show is kinda like an "extreme" version of Americas Funnies Home Videos content wise, but watch a few episodes and you will realize it is actually a ripoff of one of my favorite shows: Mystery Science Theater 3000. Am I angry about this? NO! 1If its a TV show, why does it matter? You get to watch more of the same show rather than less. This show really is funny. Love it!
kevin-jauregui07 In the midst of all the "reality" drama programs on truTV that are, *ahem*, somehow based on actual events (Operation Repo, Hardcore Pawn, and now Bait Car), World's Dumbest stands out above them all. It essentially does its part by making mundane people look hilarious when they do stupid things. The show never fails to disappoint because of the different categories that degrees of stupidity can be demonstrated: Criminals, partiers, drivers, daredevils, record breakers and so much more.The commentators are almost always on point and the fact that they have B-list celebrities that have had their own brushes with the law makes the show even more entertaining. It's interesting to see how Tonya Harding would react to an ice-related fiasco or Danny Bonaduce to a routine DWI arrest. The in-video comments are often well-acted, such as during a foiled bank robbery: "Yo, this is a stick-up! I have a finger in my pocket but it looks like a gun!"World's Dumbest is definitely a must-see and worth checking out if you're looking for something that makes you looks smart in comparison.
Red_Identity World's Dumbest is better than any Funniest Videos show I have ever seen. The comedians are for the most part funny, and although some are not, the show is always a joy to watch. TruTV is becoming one of my favorite channels, and this show only proves that. The countdowns are a problem however, since a lot of the time it seems like they are really just in random order and not in order of how extreme they are, but still, it makes for a very entertaining hour. I hope to see more of World's Dumbest and this show could definitely give more shows of this kind a run for their money. See this TV show, and also, heck out Most Daring and Most Shocking as well
