Scherzi a parte is a hidden camera-practical joke television series aired in prime time from 9 February 1992, first on Italia 1 and then on Canale 5.^[1]

The show is characterized from having national and international celebrities as victims.^[1] During the years the show was criticized as some of the pranks appeared to be arranged with the victims.^[1] Several practical jokes, including Adriano Celentano's, Giancarlo Giannini's, Claudio Cecchetto's and Alessandro Benvenuti's, were never broadcast because the victims did not signed the agreement for the airing.^[2]
