All three seasons of Jackass were reuploaded to Paramount+ in their original form at the request of creator Johnny Knoxville and others involved in the stunt-and-hijinks show. The newly uploaded episodes were refreshed to reflect the original vision from when the franchise first launched 25 years ago. The television episodes had previously been re-edited, re-sequenced, and re-scored to the point of being unrecognizable, which Knoxville said he discovered while trying to watch them. Paramount restored the shows to how they initially aired. Seasons 1, 2, and 3 had been temporarily removed in 2025 to restore the episodes. Jackass originally aired on MTV from October 2000 to August 2001 and spawned multiple spinoffs and six feature films, with Jackass: Best and Last scheduled for June 26.

""In the time since the release of Jackass 26 years ago, the television episodes had been re-edited, re-sequenced, and re-scored to the point they were unrecognizable," Knoxville explained. "I found this out the hard way last year when attempting to watch them. Eeek!""
"He continued, "But kudos to Paramount for giving us the $$ to restore the shows to how they initially aired in the first place. We can't wait until you see all the terrible things we did to each other way back then and in the manner we intended!""
"Per Deadline, Seasons 1, 2, and 3 of the show were temporarily removed from Paramount+ in 2025 at the request of the Jackass creators - which include Jeff Tremaine and Spike Jonze - to restore the episodes. Jackass aired on MTV between October 2000 and August 2001, spawning a franchise including the spinoff series Wildboyz and Viva La Bam, as well as six feature films."
