Premise

edit

The show follows four kids—Chance, Herman, Bailey, and Dusty—who pull off elaborate pranks on unsuspecting bystanders, often with the help of Dusty's Uncle Will. Each episode features a blend of scripted scenes, where the characters brainstorm and plan their pranks, followed by the execution of hidden camera pranks on real people who are unaware they are being filmed for a TV show.
