America's Funniest Home Videos

I registered just so I could reply with "mmm pointy" in regards to "See, you tune in expecting comedy, and walk away gagging yourself with a pointy stick." and furthermore I agree wholeheartedly. The only other thing I can think of regarding home videos and pictures is the infamous slide shows I remember people having in the 70's. The commentary is horrible, the Hollywood Squares yosh was bad, but nothing like Bob Saget! That dude sucked on, what was it, full house! Will people just laugh at anything or do they need some help with THC? It's also amazing at the good things they kill off and the crap they leave on the air for years on end. At least the Simpson's are still on...

I was amazed of how many unsatisfied comments there were for AFHV. This is one of the few shows that ever got me and my family together. This is one of those special shows that bring the family together and spend some quality time. There are some very funny things that happen. I have to agree that some of the videos aren't funny. But there were plenty to make up for it. I don't like seeing things get hurt when they could be severely hurt. But what was sent in never bothered me. I still enjoy this show even though I'm grown up. And I am more mature than most other people my age. As for Bob Sagat. I don't think he's a bad host. He isn't the best, but he has a few that are funny. This is a high quality family get together show. It's better than some of the shows of today.

It has definitely declined from host to host. I believe Tom Bergeron and Bob Saget were iconic compared to having Carlton host.

The humor just seems more forced from the host and it's always the same acts that win.

America conflates cute with funny. Submit a cute baby video and you could win big.

The most funny acts hardly ever win or make it to the finals.

Eventually, I lost interest in viewing regularly for this reason....

It's a classic for it's earlier years, but I'd only recommend viewing if you have absolutely nothing else to watch

6/10- Michael I.

OK, let's be real here people. We all had those days were we come home from Applebee's, turn on the TV, break out the happy snacks, and BINGE WATCH A BUNCH OF IDIOTS DOING CRAP ON AMERICA'S STUPIDEST HOME VIDEOS..... Or is that just me? Either way, THAT'S NOT THE POINT.

When it comes to American TV shows, AFV is your usual, standard, ordinary, customary, conventional, habitual, accustomed, expected, wonted, typical, stock, common, everyday, regular, routine, established, set, fixed, traditional, time-honored American show. But is this a bad thing? Well, technically not. In fact, I've gotten a few good laughs from this show. Plus, I find the entire concept of people submitting their idiotic home videos to be aired on national TV for a chance to win a good amount of cash pretty cool.

Yeah, that's great. But why the BALLS did I give AFV a 5/10? It's when they announce the FRICKIN' winner. WHY does the WINNER have to be some RANDOM BABY or some RANDOM KID under 10 YEARS OLD? WHAT THE FART PEOPLE? Whenever AFV airs a video that focuses on a baby or some kid under 10 years old, 95% of the time it's not funny, IT'S JUST RETARDED. YOU SHOULDN'T BE GIVING MONEY TO THESE PEOPLE.

And the worst part would be the fact that AFV is FULL OF THESE KINDS OF VIDEOS. Nobody wants to see your FRICKIN' baby or your FRICKIN' kid do CRAP. We want to see people who are 18 and over do POINTLESS (yet humorous) STUNTS that result in DESTRUCTION or EVEN PET VIDEOS. Yeah, I guess PET VIDEOS ARE GOOD TOO.

I give this a FRICKIN' 5/10. I HATE KIDS.

I used to like watching this show, when I was a mindless little tyke. Now that I am much older, I caught this on a TV rerun and thought to myself, "Is this supposed to be funny?". The videos that were sent in were funny, although much of them look as if they were staged. What made them unfunny and unentertaining was the gratuitous use of Bob Saget's voiceovers and music. I had to mute the TV to find the videos funny. My brothers and sisters never liked the show. Now that I am old enough, it's hard not to see why.
