America's Funniest People

This was a rip-off of the same garbage we had to watch Bob Saget host during the half-hour before this. Dave Coulier only thought he was funny and it was pretty much the same show as America's Funniest Home Videos except with a hosts who have a combined IQ of three. Tawny Kitaen must've really needed the money and Coulier had to go to the recycle bin for his jokes. It was torture enough having to see him imitate Popeye and other washed up cartoon starts on Full House. That one dude who played all of the practical jokes on everyone deserves to be on the receiving end of a Grade A wedgie. Coulier must've needed to money to please Alannis Morisette while they were dating.

I remember at one time when I was young, I thought this show was actually funny. Thanks to late night TBS, I can now watch all the reruns I want. However, after viewing one episode, I was shocked to see how horrible this show really is. Unless you are interested in bad childish comedy, stupid videos and an insane audience I recommend never ever viewing this show.

Once again I back up the home video shows. I agree this isn't that good. But it is better than what you see on TV anymore. Most the videos sent to this one were stupid. Only the video clips made by AFP themselves were funny. I liked the Jackalope a lot. That was the only good thing about it. I hate the name Jack Ching Botta Bing though.

Now that I can watch this show from an adult's point of view, I realize how dumb most of it was. The videos sent in from viewers were what made it really stupid. Some were funny, but most were people doing really kiddish and/or disgusting things. I am a fan of Dave Coulier and he is funny. He was usually funny on the show, but it was the clips sent in by viewers that made it so dull. The only funny parts were the the videos from the show like "This old shack," "Dunk your parents" or "Jack Ching Bottabing." Why can't they show funny things from American viewers? I guess too many people here have quite a dry sense of humor! Most of the clips were better than America's Funniest Home videos and Coulier was MUCH better than Bob Saget! At least he didn't narrate each scene in his falsetto voice. Dave's lines in between clips were funny, while Bob was so dry on his show that REAL people didn't even crack a smile to his jokes! I grew up watching both Saget and Coulier on Full House and still like that, but cannot stand either AFHV or AFP! Both are funny to kids, but adults know what real humor is!

If you wanna see some REAL humor, go watch Three's Company, Mad TV or Saturday Night Live. If your kids wanna see humor, don't expose them to this, unless you want them performing those dumb stunts! Have your kids watch "All That" to find humor!

I remember that show. I still remember that kick ass fun song "America's Funniest People." Frankly it should've been titled American's lame or unfunny or downright disgusting People. Dave couldn't save this show and neither could Bob Saget or the replacement hosts for AFV that came later. The Jackalope segments were hilarious and yes Dave could make some good voice overs that were better than Bob's. But this show went to hell because of the lame crappy videos people submitted. Also it developed as somewhat of a variety show with lame guest stars including the Olson Twins. Plus AFV was in it's prime before they started picking the drooling ugly as sin babies as the winner. Did I mentioned the videos were disgusting and lame? But still the theme song rocks!
