I knew about this as a similar programme as Jackass, and I saw one or two episodes on Freeview, and it is the same, only more extreme. Basically three Welsh guys, and one mad British bloke were brought together by love of skateboarding, and a complete disregard/masochistic pleasure to harm themselves and their health and safety. They have had puking, eating pubes-covered pizza, jumping in stinging nettles, naked paint balling, jokes on the smaller guy while heavily sleeping/snoring, stunts in a work place, e.g. army, cowboys, and many more insane stunts that cause bruises, bumps, blood and vomit, maybe not just for themselves. Starring Matthew Pritchard who does pretty much anything painful, Lee Dainton also up for just about anything, Dan Joyce (the British one) who hardly does the disgusting stuff and has an over the top laugh, and Pancho (Mike Locke) who does a lot, but is more popular for being short, fat and lazy. It was number 34 on The 100 Greatest Funny Moments. Worth watching!

I need to be honest. I watched and enjoy this show because it was gross, offensive, hilarious, and raunchy. Yeah, there is a lot of humor for all tastes. If you are into the kind of humor that deals with making fun of people falling from skateboards, for example then you will have a great time for it.Or, if you enjoy people on extreme stunt actions going bad, you will also have a great time. And if you enjoy scatological humor and extreme situations oh , you will enjoy the show.I enjoy all three kinds of humor that "Dirty Sànchez" offers. I like to have a hard laugh with the situations of the show. "Jackass" is like a walk in the park compared to this one. So if you are tired of the typical American stupidity of Jackass, give it a try to English extreme stupidity on this show. With all due respect.This is a show that has little taste or class. It's not recommended for those who are easily offended or grossed out.Now, these guys need to see a psychologist. Specially the Paco character.

Dirty Sanchez is the more extreme, British version of Jackass in which the four boys (Pritchard, Dainton, Joycey and Pancho) go to great lengths to hurt and humiliate each other. The reason this show is better than Jackass is because most of the stunts are not planned which makes the reaction much more funny. There are 3 series of the show, the first follows them around and takes a long look at their lives eg. there's an episode on their love lives,jobs etc. The second series sends the boys to try out different occupations. The third follows their European tour. It seems that the boys get more and more daring as the show progresses through the series. In my opinion the third series is the best, but trust me when i say, if you have a week stomach DO NOT WATCH, as you are lightly to see a fair amount of blood and puke in every episode.

I have to differ with the other commenters here and say that Dirty Sanchez is not only less original and less varied, but also less clever and much less funny than Jackass. Jackass was primarily a comedy/prank show which occasionally used painful/degrading/humiliating stunts as a vehicle for the comedy. The mos sidesplitting bits in Jackass (the dildo in the trousers, Daddy & baby, visiting Mianus, senile kleptomaniac) often involved nobody getting hurt or puked upon. Dirty Sanchez, by contrast, is primarily a stunt show where the guys try to hurt and disgust themselves and each other as much as possible. The consequent laughs appear almost incidental. In this aspect, Dirty Sanchez is more similar to the duller bits in Jackass the Movie, right down to the endless and unjustified guffawing of the guys at their own unfunny jokes. In Jackass everything is far more structured and planned out, and clearly a lot more thought went into it. The difference in intelligence is striking. Perhaps it's simply the smaller budget of the Welsh program, but I doubt it.
