You've Got a Friend
Overview
You've Got A Friend was a 2004 reality comedy show on MTV, produced by Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg. It was launched near the same time as their reality prank show Punk'd, and although successful in ratings, was cancelled at the end of the first season so they could focus on its more popular counterpart. The show filmed contestants having to tolerate a 'friend' for 48 hours, while filmed on hidden camera in their home and different public settings. The 'friend' would be a trained improvisational comedian, who would progressively torment the contestant, their friends and loved ones. The catch was that the friends and family of the contestant were unaware of the folie à deux. If able to endure the embarrassment caused by the irreverent demands of the friend, the contestant would win a cash prize.

Episode 101: Jayson Storm
Jayson is a 21 year old aspiring actor living in Los Angeles, California. His life was going smoothly until he decided to try his luck for $15,000 dollars. Jayson's new ""best friend,"" Jack, is going to make his life a living hell. Jack first enters Jayson's life when the young, Hollywood wannabe is having lunch with his girlfriend, Michelle, and another female friend. Our man Jack regales the two real friends with extremely embarrassing and (completely made-up) stories about Jayson's youth. Jayson plays along--remember he's got to in order to win the cash--as Jack turns up the gross-out factor. Eventually, Jack gets Jayson to eat a booger off of his finger. Later, when Jayson leaves for the bathroom, Jack tells Michelle that Jayson had multiple threesomes and he is known to be unfaithful. Michelle is understandably shocked to hear such information about her sweet, innocent Jayson. When Jayson returns, Jack quickly grabs him and drives him off in a beat up Volvo. Michelle tries to call
