Tosh.0

I liked Daniel Tosh's comedy before anyone had heard of him. My sides hurt from laughing after listening to his first act, "True Stories I Made Up." He upped the bar with "Completely Serious." So I was pretty excited when I heard he was getting a show...then was disappointed when it was yet another Soup variation, especially with Web Soup already running. I was in for a pleasant surprise. Tosh excels at social commentary, and the goofy grin that shows on his face as he nonchalantly spouts off the most politically incorrect and tongue in cheek remarks you could dream up will just about have you dying.

From time to time, an episode falls flat, and sometimes the show can get a little TOO gross (I can't take looking at compound fractures or people squeezing pus out of boils). Occasionally I'll be offended by something he says, but overall, Tosh is very consistent. Awesome show!

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.

I can't tell you how much I loved this first episode of Tosh.0, I laughed so hard I almost puked! His opening monologue was just great - and his video slow-down of the guy trying to karate-chop coconuts was truly rocking! Yes, IMDb made me add the "G" at the end of that word. I'm going to have to make his show a regular thing! I've always thought he was funny and now a show that makes fun of the internet combining his sense of humor is just brilliant! The internet has been needing some dedicated fun-making for quite some time, and I think Daniel Tosh is just the comedian for the job. The redemption of the week looks like a good segment too... now I'm just stretching to fill the minimum comments length.

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!
