Impractical Jokers Returns With Season 13 Tonight on TBS

Streaming short-term passes and a DIRECTV free trial let non‑cable viewers catch the premiere and reflect how pay‑TV is courting cord‑cutters

Overview

  • Season 13 of Impractical Jokers premieres tonight on TBS and TruTV at 10 p.m. ET / 9 p.m. CT on Thursday, July 23, 2026.
  • New episodes will air weekly on Thursdays and be available live on the cable channels that carry the show.
  • Viewers without cable can stream the premiere using Sling, which offers 1‑day, 3‑day and 7‑day passes including a $4.99 1‑day option, or by starting a free trial with DIRECTV Stream.
  • The three remaining on‑air Jokers — James 'Murr' Murray, Brian 'Q' Quinn and Sal Vulcano — continue the series' run while Joe Gatto, who left in late 2021 to focus on family, remains on good terms with the group.
  • Earlier seasons are only partly available for streaming, with HBO Max carrying a limited set (reported as three seasons), so full‑series bingeing may require multiple services or purchases.
