In the multi-award-winning comedy series “Jerks.” star actors Christian Ulmen and Fahri Yardım play versions of themselves that are absolutely not mistaken: their missteps of foreign embarrassment are usually so painful that you can often only see through your fingers – and at the same time so incredibly funny that you can’t stop laughing.
Based on the Danish cult series “Klovn”, “jerks.” developed its own unmistakable identity over the past four seasons. No wonder most dialogues are improvised by the actors on set after all. Also because of that The awkwardness of “Jerks.” is so wonderfully unpredictable, and season five is no exception.
In the last episodes, the series gives a look back at Christian and Fahri’s childhood for the first time: How did your best friends meet then? And more importantly, were those two such “jerks” when they were little boys?
The first two episodes are already available on Joyn. The first episode is free for everyone. All other episodes, which will be released weekly with immediate effect, are reserved for Joyn PLUS+ subscribers:

At the beginning of the last season “jerks.” Joyn also has a gift ready for anyone who hasn’t fallen for the comedy cult yet: while so far only the first episode of each season is available on Joyn, the entire first four seasons are now available for everyone completely free at Joyn.

“Jerks.” is coming to an end with the current season, but Joyn already has a suitable successor in the starting blocks: the comedy series “INTIMATE.” will start in the spring of 2023, which also relies on improvisational humor that sometimes actually hurts. Here too, the first episode is free for everyone again before you have to take out a Joyn PLUS+ subscription from episode 2 onwards.
“INTIMATE.” shows the five teenagers Bruno, Emil, Oskar, Max and Leo in very special situations in which the camera would otherwise be definitely off – and which people generally do not like to talk about. For example, during a visit to the sauna, which it is guaranteed that none of those involved will ever forget:
Besides the proximity to the painless foreign shame humor á la “jerks.”, there is another very good reason to look forward to “INTIMATE.”: The people behind the series are the same people who have already developed one of the most exciting new German comedy series in recent years with “Die Discounter”…
