"JACKASS" RETURNS TO PARAMOUNT+
Stream Restored Original Episodes From Seasons 1-3 Now
May 21, 2026 - Jackass is back in all its chaotic glory. Seasons 1-3 return to Paramount+ today in restored original versions - bringing fans closer than ever to the episodes as they first aired, or were originally intended to air, by Johnny Knoxville and the original creative team.
· At the request of the Jackass creators, Seasons 1-3 were temporarily removed from Paramount+ at the end of 2025 so the production team could revisit and restore key creative elements that had been altered over time. The refreshed episodes now reflect the original vision from when the groundbreaking franchise first launched 25 years ago.
· "In the time since the release of Jackass 26 years ago, the television episodes had been re-edited, re-sequenced, and re-scored to the point they were unrecognizable. I found this out the hard way last year when attempting to watch them. Eeek! But kudos to Paramount for giving us the $$ to restore the shows to how they initially aired in the first place. We can't wait until you see all the terrible things we did to each other way back then and in the manner we intended!" - Johnny Knoxville
· Fans can now stream the definitive versions of Seasons 1-3 only on Paramount+, restored with the chaos, stunts, pranks and irreverent spirit that helped redefine a generation of comedy. Restored original episodes are currently available to U.S. Paramount+ subscribers, with additional regions rolling out in the coming weeks.
· The relaunch arrives just ahead of the upcoming Paramount Pictures theatrical release Jackass: Best and Last, hitting theaters June 26. Consider this your warm-up.
· Led by Johnny Knoxville and a fearless crew of collaborators, Jackass became a cultural phenomenon through its outrageous stunts, DIY spirit and unapologetic absurdity - leaving a lasting mark on comedy, reality television and pop culture.
