What do you get when you have a bunch of celebrities prank calling average people at their 9-to-5? A brand new season of Crank Yankers!

Crank Yankers, a show which reenacts prank calls by way of a puppet cast, originally ran from 2002-2007 and, after a 12-year hiatus, the show is back to entertain a whole new generation! From showrunner Jimmy Kimmel, Comedy Central, has brought the show back for a fifth season.

Some of the Crank Yankers alumni are back like, Tracy Morgan, Sarah Silverman, Adam Carolla, David Alan Grier and, of course Kimmel, himself. The revival is also set to welcom a whole new batch of celebrities and comedians, such as: Natasha Leggero, Aubrey Plaza, Niki Glaser and Bobby Moynihan.
