The first series received mixed reaction, with some people claiming it was just a lacklustre imitation of the American show Jackass, while others, especially those previously offended by Jackass, complained that it pushed the boundaries of taste too far, due to a high content of extreme stunts and strong profanity, as well as full-frontal male nudity. Their tagline is 'They make Jackass look like the Royal Shakespeare Company', and also on the cover of the Dirty Sanchez: The Movie DVD, there is another quote by MAXIM saying "Makes Jackass Look Like The Teletubbies."
[edit] 'Jobs for the Boyos'
This new series focused on the four presenters visiting various workplaces and training with their staff for five days. These work experiences included a salon, a building site, a martial-arts training class, The Royal Marines Commando training camp, a Fire services training course and a ranch in Arizona where they train to be cowboys.
But despite this it became the biggest hit in MTV UK history and is still the only UK series to go stateside.
