Created by Jimmy Kimmel, Adam Carolla, and Daniel Kellison, “Crank Yankers” is an American television show that makes all the crank phone calls you wish you’d made when you were a kid. Yankerville’s puppet citizens- voiced by celebrities and stand-up comedians- make real calls to real people, whether they like it or not. The show premiered first time in 2002 on Comedy Central.
The latest season broadcast on Wednesday, May 5, 2021, at 10:30 P.M on Comedy Central.
“The successful return of ‘Crank Yankers’ in 2019 showed that the series is a timeless classic,” said Sarah Babineau, head of Comedy Central content and creative enterprises. “We can’t wait to see what America’s favorite dirty-talking pranksters have in store for next season!”
