It's the same dark humor Ridiculousness has, but waaaaay better. Tosh hosts a show similar to shows such as "The Soup" and "AFV," but with edgier clips. The show is infamously known as holding the world record for an audience reaction to 2 Girls 1 Cup. Daniel still hosts the show to this day and it's still extremely funny. Might not be for everybody, but if you wanna laugh at some screwball humor... this is for you!
While the video clip show started off with ABC's America's Funniest Home Videos, the format of a clip show has been imitated multiple times, some being successful while others failed.
Comedy Central decided to cash in on that format with a certain stand-up comedian as a host.
Enter Tosh.0, hosted by comedian Daniel Tosh, which by the naked eye, is similar to shows like E!'s The Soup, but what made Tosh.0 stand out from the rest is Tosh's hilarious commentary on the videos that are shown (especially his one-liners), his interactions with his audience, doing Web Redemptions and CeWEBrity Profile and occasionally doing sketches to some of the videos shown. It became CC's highly rated program and ran for 12 seasons and was originally renewed for 4 more seasons until it was unexpectedly cancelled because the channel decided to focus on adult-animated series.
So, if you haven't seen this show before and if you haven't seen Daniel Tosh in action, do so whenever you get the chance!

For all you Internet junkies out there, this show is for you. Daniel Tosh, a funny as hell stand-up comic, takes you into the seedy realm we all inhabit and gives pointed observations on everything from the Afro Ninja to kids getting smashed in the face. In all honesty, I thought this show would be a bust. Seeing as how only Internet People tend to enjoy their self-referential humour, I figured there would be nothing for the average everyman to laugh at. However; Tosh makes funny for everybody, not just those of us who lurk the waters of the World Wide Web. Also; the subtle little inside jokes meant only for us Web Heads are hilarious.
It's fun reading the bad reviews for this show, and it's still going strong. I guess everyone else disagrees with ya'll.
A lot of people compare Tosh.0 to the E! Network's Talk Soup. Sure, it's just some guy standing in front of a blue screen commenting on stupid people hurting themselves on Youtube for a half an hour. You could also say the same thing about America's Funniest Home Videos.
But what makes Daniel Tosh's show different is that his one-liners are often spot-on, his audience interaction is great (like when he asked his audience which celebrities he could beat up), and the web redemptions/remixes/reunions/retreats are hilarious. Now that the show went from having a budget of zero to actually having one, expect them to get even crazier.
And unlike the other shows, Daniel Tosh's is almost interactive, whether it's pasting together stories from random Twitter feeds, wrecking havoc on Wikipedia (they actually had to close the page to prevent Tosh fans from editing it due to "vulgar, rampant profanity"), or seeing how many funny comments he can make in 20 seconds.
I'd actually go so far as to compare this show to MTV's Jackass. Sure it lacks the camaraderie of Johnny Knoxville and his crazy crew - but the gags are there. The brand of toilet humor and random nonsense is exactly the same. And where's the puke? There's plenty of it!
