DESCRIPTION: (from Comedy Central's press release, July 2009) "Fonejacker," a BAFTA(R) award-winning British prank show never before seen in the United States, features undercover video footage, Monty Python-esque animations and visual on-screen wordplay which turns hilarious, embarrassing prank calls into a multimedia experience. The show stars Kayvan Novak, the brains and voice behind the various characters featured. In the premiere episode, Terry Tibbs, a car salesman who makes dodgy dealing an art form, attempts to buy a car that is for sale by its owner, a mouse calls a pet shop to learn how to kill the cat that ate his family and an unscrupulous Ugandan tries to get various people to give up their bank account information.
