Disney XD Goes for New Comedy Prank Show

BURBANK: Disney XD has placed an order for Walk the Prank, a comedy prank series created by Adam Small (MAD TV) and Trevor Moore (Whitest Kids U Know).

Walk the Prank follows a group of practical jokers who create over-the-top pranks for an online hidden-camera show. The single-camera series stars newcomers Bryce Gheisar (Dream Chasers), Jillian Shae Spaeder (Theatre and Me's the Bully), Tobie Windham (The Wesley's) and Nicky, Ricky Dicky & Dawn's Cody Veith and Brandon Severs. It is slated to begin production in January 2016 for broadcast later that year.

"We are confident that Adam and Trevor will give Disney XD one-of-a-kind storytelling and unscripted surprises with the pranks," said Adam Bonnett, the executive VP of original programming at Disney Channels Worldwide. "We are lucky to be in business with these creators and ready to Walk the Prank with them!"
