Episodes

That Milk Must Have Turned By Now
"Impractical Jokers" Brian "Q" Quinn, Sal Vulcano, James "Murr" Murray and Joe Gatto are paired with contestants to guess the misery of some hilariously traumatic real-life events for a chance at $30,000; host Jameela Jamil.

Men of Intellect
Joe and Q finally become gentlemen; a little piggy goes to the emergency room; a man rides the elevator from hell; a clumsy paramedic; an accidental sexy text battle.

He's Crushing His Man Cave Game
What does Jameela refer to as a "fun arm," and The Tenderloins witness the most embarrassing way to ruin a friend's wedding. Will being pooped on by a dolphin or sucking toilet water out of a cell phone help contestants win $30,000?

How Did It Get In There?
A dumb way to break up with someone; a gross sex dream; a pants-free performer; a vertical face planter.

You Better Watch Your Filthy Mouth
What if your landlord left this miserable surprise for you, or you're caught "faking it" on live tv? A bad wedding officiant and someone who phone sexed their mom battle it out to see who gets a chance at the $30,000 grand prize.

We Got That D!
We learn the misery of "accidental man-boobs," how many jolts of electricity Q can take, and which of the Tenderloins was an "accident." Our contestants must get over shameful family antics to compete for a chance at a $30,000 grand prize.

So That's Murder Then?
Jameela shows us that there are some things you never want to find in your toilet, Sal shows us how to ruin a wedding, and a pants-wetter and a forgetful husband battle it out for a chance to win the $30,000 grand prize.

If My Grandmother Was That Hot, I'd Go For Her Too
Murr doesn't want to "pucker up," and Sal would rather have fire ants on his face than have this misery. Will a bidet victim or someone who showed nudes to their boss become the master of misery and winner of the $30,000 grand prize?.

Check Out This Sucker!
Find out which of our Tenderloins' moms came out to witness a doctor retrieving a live animal from a nose. Will a fart professional or someone caught before the act become the master of misery and get a shot at the $30,000 grand prize?.

They Made Me Do It!
In this game we learn which books you never want to hear at bedtime, and the most miserable way to get "stuck" cheating. A flasher and a scorned fiancé compete to see who gets to the final round and a chance at the $30,000 grand prize.

The Food That Built America
For generations of Americans, food titans like Henry Heinz, Milton Hershey, John and Will Kellogg, C.W. Post and the McDonald brothers have literally been household names, but you don't know their stories. Before they were brand names, they were brilliant, sometimes ruthless, visionaries who revolutionized food and changed the landscape of America forever. This miniseries event will tell the fascinating stories of the people behind the food that built America – those who used brains, muscle, blood, sweat and tears to get to America's heart through its stomach, and along the way built cities, invented new technologies and helped win wars.

The Floor
The Floor is a physical quiz show that sees 81 contestants face off in quiz duels on a giant LED floor divided into a 9×9 grid of squares, each representing its own field of knowledge.
The first challenger, selected at random, must choose one of his or her neighboring opponents to go head-to-head in an epic quiz duel in the opponent's category. The winner takes over the loser's square, gaining valuable ground as they expand their territory, while the loser exits the game. The winner must then choose – do they continue on and attempt to secure another square? Or do they let The Floor choose a new challenger? The last contestant standing who gains full control over The Floor takes home a life-changing $250,000 cash prize.

When Calls the Heart
When Calls the Heart is inspired by Janette Oke's bestselling book series about the Canadian West, the series tells the captivating story of Elizabeth Thatcher, a young teacher accustomed to her high society life, who receives her first classroom assignment in Coal Valley, a small coal mining town where life is simple, but often fraught with challenges. Upon arrival, Elizabeth befriends Abigail Stanton, a wife and mother whose husband, the foreman of the mine, along with a dozen other miners, has just been killed in an explosion. The newly widowed women find their faith is tested when they must go to work in the mines to keep a roof over their heads. Set against the wild canvas of a 19th century coal town, Elizabeth will have to learn the ways of the frontier if she wishes to thrive in the rural west on her own.

Beyond the Gates
Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington D.C., and in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States. Here you'll find a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those that live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have "made it" and those who haven't are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others.

Going Dutch
