It's disgusting and not funny at all that parents send in videos of their child half naked on a potty, running around the yard etc., or doing videos like the one that won tonight of the little boy in his undies and the parents encouraging him to touch the microphone to his private area...even worse that you wouldn't censor and remove them.
This is a great show for people of all ages. Highly recommend, Bob Sagat is the best host for this show.... from the bloopers to the babies to the animals... everything shown here is guaranteed to make your day a bit brighter. I laugh so much sometimes I start bawling and my tummy tight from non-stop laughter. Big props to the videographers for giving us great moments!
Countless numbers of channels have attempted to make a show like America's Funniest Home Videos where people submit in their family clips. Well this show is what made all these Top 20 things on TruTV and such possible. The show has a great host Bob Saget, and a majority of the clips are pretty funny. A couple clips though with the serious, permanent injury's are not very funny. Other than that, this is a great show. I also love the Christmas and other Holiday specials they do as well. I hope this show stays on the air for many years to come.
A show that is supposed to always be funny all the time fails miserably at that, but when it IS funny, you will laugh so incredibly harder than you expect you would because it is just so hilarious.
Most of the videos in this show are just people falling down and getting hurt. While this is funny(when it's not you), it gets old and boring after awhile. And while sometimes they do show other funny videos involving animals, babies, and people, they only do that stuff occasionally. Most of the time it's just people falling and getting hurt. I would say that makes up about 75 percent of the show. I want to see some new material. After awhile, it is not funny anymore because that's all they show over and over again. It's called America's Funniest Home Videos. It's supposed to have a wide variety of different funny things from different videos. But it doesn't always. That makes me mad and lowers the show score down to a 7. But I still do like the concept and idea of the show. And when they do show other things, they are just hilarious and break my laugh box. Even though there is no such thing as a laugh box. I crack myself up. What I mean by that is, laughter is so funny that it hurts. Sometimes I can't breathe, and sometimes it makes me cough. It's just so hilarious. Some hilarious things I've seen from videos include dogs and cats pestering each other, escaping from a cage, or dancing in an unusual, amazing fashion, babies laughing, cursing, or doing something amazing, and a whole lot more crazy stuff. Sometimes, things can be gross, disgusting, and disturbing. Like I saw a noodle come out of a baby's nose when he sneezed. EWWW!!! In a weird way though, it is still funny. There are other nasty things that I can't remember at the moment, but trust me, they make you want to turn away from the television screen, but you can't because they are still funny in a weird way. For some people that is. For others, they just will. Overall, AFV could use some work on getting rid of excessive falling and getting hurt. That would be a big help to us viewers who want to see FUNNY stuff. Sigh. However, the other stuff that they show is so magically and powerfully hilarious that the high amount of funniness makes up for the over showing of falling and getting hurt. When they show people falling and getting hurt because of their stupidity, it is funny. But when they show people falling and getting hurt because of something that it not their fault and out of their control, it is not funny. It is serious and makes you wonder what kind of sadistic people would laugh at that. All in all, I would say check the show out.
After 21 years of the SAME things: people falling and hurting themselves, pets and kids doing something stupid or hurting themselves, much better videos are now available on youtube.
After 21 years of the SAME things done over and over and over again: people falling and hurting themselves, pets and kids doing something stupid or hurting themselves, much better videos are now available on youtube which are much funnier and more up-to-date.
Also, all the videos are grainy and look like they're from the last century. The people in the videos are not normal people, they seem not to notice the internet age or still using super8 videos to tape themselves doing stupid things. What kind of morons still tune in week after week to watch this rubbish on tv?
Normally, I think if this show was only the home videos without the annoying host, this show would get a 10. However, despite the show having a retarded host, the show's funny. Even though it's humor relies on accidental home movies shot in a gorilla-stle manor. I must say, despite this, I grew up watching this show, and I always loved it. Personall,y because of it's always new humor, it'll never go out of season. I really don't know what else to say, except that this show deserves some of the praise it gets. Well, thanks for readin' folks. Good night.
Yeah, sure. After the years of it being on though the light hearted comedy may have paid its toll. The reason why it may not be as great as it once was though is because of the host, Tom Bergeron. There's no personal grudge or what have you against him, he just simply doesn't stack up to what made the show back in the 90's with Bob Saget, which at the time, was also in Full House, another great show for family value (although it's awkward how he's more crude in humor nowadays then ever before). As Bob Saget grew tired of the repetitive format of the show, you may have too. Now, in this later version of the show they have something called "Tom's Home Movies". For some odd reason it annoys more than it actually entertains, because you feel it was a pointless add on to the show, and less focused on the "family" proportion because they digitally superimposed Tom's head into a family video. Which makes you feel that the attention was meant to be on Tom instead of the family. America's Funniest Home Videos is meant to be for the laughter of family, and while it has done so well in the past, its overall presentation has worn thin. It's great to feel you can sit there with the family and watch something humorous that has very little to no crude humor in it. Sometimes watching sex, violence, and so on with your parents, or maybe even children can get awkward (sex mainly). So it's good to go back to the start of what family entertainment is. Overall, where we're at in history and you've been watching it from the time you were born, the show is easy to pass up and not recommend. If it were to be recommended, watch the old re-runs from the Saget era just to relive what it once was. Great and nothing but!
contestants send in real-life home videos they made, which are humorous, and try to win money by how funny they are (people vote for their favorites).
i do not watch this show a lot but when i do i do not laugh a lot. i do chuckle every now and then but not as much as i would like, considering the title of the show. sure, sometimes i laugh, but i don't laugh a whole lot. this is why i do not watch this show a lot. overall my grade for this would be in the "C" range i think
i remember i watched this show when i was younger but after a while it gets repetitive. its basically the same thing over and over again people getting hit in the nuts, falling down, being stupied, gross things. i dont know anyone that still watches this show. theirs not much more to say about this show so ill just copy and paste the review again so itll be long enough.

One of the few shows that makes me laugh out loud. It's the one show once I start watching, it's hard to turn off. You cannot believe how stupid some people are, the dumb tricks they try and then are crazy enough to record on camera, jumping off of the roof onto a trampoline, sliding down the hill on a variety of sleds, skis, and who knows what. Pets are especially funny because you never quite know what they are going to do. People falling down at parties, tricks played on family members, spouses, and loved ones, chidren vomiting on their parents, feats of strength gone awry. You can't be that stuff.
i dont like it when you guys show cats that peopple or dogs hurt them ok thats not funny at all i think thats animal cruelty that those peopple do to the cats , more when they bite them on the butt or they just slam there faces on the walss not funny at all everytime i see that i just change it n gets me in a bad mood . so please dont acet those videos that u think the cat is not comfortable ok ! so next time check before you put videoas like that n not show it on the tv.
This show is irresponsible and stupid. It is NOT funny to show people falling on their necks, backs, heads, groins, or anything that can cause paraplegia, quadraplegia, or permanent brain damage. How on EARTH do you think that showing these -- AND encouraging these is funny? Or is FAMILY fare? I just went through spinal surgery for an accident and when I accidentally find myself tuned to this show I just cringe when I see those tapes. Yes - accidents happen. *They are not funny*. They are sad. Perhaps your entire writing staff should take a trip over to a Rehab center - or to a brain damage wing of a hospital. Go watch the people struggling to learn to walk and talk again after falls like the ones you show and laugh at, the young men and women who have lost the use the lower parts of their bodies because of accidents that you show over and over and over and over ad nauseum. Rewarding ANY falling or accident video is unethical. It only encourages people to set things up so they can win the money. Yes, you tell them NOT to do that. Like that works. It will only work when you stop rewarding it. Stick to funny animals and legitimately amusing videos.
This show is hilarious and just keeps get better by the episode. I watch it every time it comes on. I would love to know how I could upload some funny videos of my own. I hope this show never goes off the air it's the one thing that makes one of my bad days good again. I like Tom better than that couple that used to do the show they were so overly cheesy and not in a good way either.Well keep those funny videos come can't wait for the new ones to come out. Your fan, Jacqueline S.
People can win money just by being crazy? A very good idea for people who can act, And need quick cash! The main reason i LOVE the show so much is because of how funny the people and animals are. The best show i saw in Voting. Some people think it's mean to put people on tv, But i think people can laugh over it when they see themselves on television. Everyone should enjoy this show no doubt, It's the best! And just for who think people vote for the meanest ones, They are trying to vote for the funniest ones! I Love AFV!
This show has all the funny it needs.I mean,those funny things that they do in every video is funny.It's kind of better than Wheel Of Fortune because everybody laughs their heads off when they show these videos.It's not one of my favorite shows but it's still funny.I laugh when I see this show because of all of those funny videos are very filled with laughter.This is one of the funniest shows that is on the comedy list.Well,I pretty much don't like this show,but I still laugh my head off when I see this show and I give this show a B because it's pretty funny.
But,I can watch this on WGN Superstation on DirecTV.I love the show but i dont watch it that much. But When i do, i laugh and think: Lol!
It's Just a good show to watch when your upset because you ome home sad, turn the show on, laugh your head off,and Boom! You forgot you were upset! That is one great way to use this show then just for entertainment.But my whole point here is i just want them to bring this show back.Thats my point of this show review.----By ,Spongebobcptv9
What can I say about this program? It's hilarious, and that's in a good way. Whenever I watch it, there is never a dull moment and I find myself always laughing at something. People send in their videos and compete for the funniest one. Half of the time, I can't even determine which one I like the best. If you ask me, I would say you should never pass up the chance to watch this, especially if you were having a bad day or if you just want the chance to get a good laugh. Whatever your desire or circumstance, watch this program when you can, you won't be disappointed!
Yes, I like this show. Very much actually! Fun videos, people doing stupid experiments or pets playing piano. They have got it all! And Tom Bergeron must be one of the best hosts I have seen on TV for a very long time! Funny jokes, plays game with the audience, what more could you ask for? Yes, I know, sometimes it can get boring if they send clips that you have seen before, but does it really matter? No. The only thing I really just can't stand watching on this show is kids that don't get it they way the want it and start screaming about it. I can't really understand why people send in videos like that. Overall, a really good show worth watching, give it a chance! :)
So funny! People get hurt and we laugh at them, which isn't right, but at least we're happy to get a fantastic laugh 'cause we can't help it! Seriously, I always either start choking when watching this, or roll off the couch!
Well there's not much to say about this hilarious show, just that it's one of the funniest things ever thought of, and it's got the best home videos in them! While everyone else likes Bob Saget the most, I think Tom Bergeron is much funnier than he is. I sometimes get such a great laugh from him, but Bob...don't make me laugh! My favorite home videos would be either those with the kids or babies (kids and babies are the funniest), or at the weddings (the brides are so hilarious). But I would choose those fast-motion videos, when a couple of videos are shown very fast, and you're able to see just the main picture that makes you choke! Seriously, one of them almost made me choke once! ...So like I said, those that never watched this and don't know what it is should get looking for it right away, it'll make them cry for more!
The title of this show speaks for itself, it's a show where you can submit your funniest moments and get tons of cash! I really like the videos submitted, the accidents are my favorite part of the show! As well as the music monatges, don't forget about those killers! I also like the scares, pretty hilarious. Don't forget the funny pet tricks and pet talk. This show is just extremely hilarious in my opinion, and I do feel guilty pleasure while watching it, it's just too funny to see people get hurt! I'm sorry! I watch this show every night on ABC Family and every Sunday on ABC, hopefully I could buy AFV on DVD at the website so I can watch it anytime I want (excluding on my iPod)! So yeah, I always look forward to new episodes, and hopefully it will continue on for the rest of eternity!
The new version is pretty good, but personally, I missed the old version of America's Funniest Home Videos. Bob Saget was really hilarious. I especially miss those Full House Reunion Specials on the show. I also thought the Olsan Twins appearance was very cute, especailly when they were wearing those trench coats. You cannot beat the classics. I miss the good old days when watching a funny home video from the early ninties can make you giggle and roll around alot on the carpet. Back when Reality Shows didn't exsist. I never missed an episode of that show.
i used to watch this show a lot and it was funny, until later, it wasn't. this show presents the same videos over and over and eventually gets very boring. the videos also present the same things that happen, like falling, hitting, and accidents. some of the videos aren't even funny at all. but still, some of these funny clips can still be funny, even now they can be funny, and i still laugh at the videos, but some clips get very repetitive and need to improve. so i would say this show is fine to watch, but not the best.
Since I grew up watching and loving this show, one would think I would have nothing but good things to say...that is true to an extent. That is true for the time that Bob Saget was on the show, until 1997. After that, it just felt so odd watching it without my favorite host. I stuck with the show for awhile but it was just funnier back then in the first few seasons. Tom Bergeron is a good host, sometimes he makes me laugh. I do not like how in the most recent seasons, families have won the main prize for clips that are not even funny. That is what bugs me. A lot of these clips are not even funny, just odd or amazing.
this show is so funny i laugh so hard every time its on, when i sad i try to find this show on tv so i can cheer up and laugh, there are few shows that i watch that i dont get tried of fast and this is one that no matter who many times you watch it you still watch it it'sthat good and i hope that it is never cancieled because i'll go crazy if it is and thats no fib i know a few people that will say im crazy for saying that but i have watch this show since i was a baby and i still watch it and will not quit watching.
America's Funniest Home Videos, oh what to say. One thing their on their 17th strait season! Congratulations! You know all those shows out there, the America shows. Like America's Most Wanted, America's Most Amazing Videos, America's, America's. All those shows. Well A.F.V. came first guys, sorry! I have to say that it is one of my favorite shows. Probably the only reason that I dont like this show is that I've seen some of the videos before. Tom Bergeron is the perfect man for the job of hosting A.F.V. and his expressions to the videos are the most phenomenal thing you'll ever see. My advice to you is to watch this show every week. I love it so much. I remember one time when I was like 8, I saw in the newspaper that A.F.V. was not on and I started to cry because it was basketball. This is how much a fan I am. I would probably cry again. No, just kidding. 8 out of 10!
It is getting funnier every season, probably because people are getting stupider every year. I guess human stupidity is just really funny to watch. I especially like to watch the pets specials because watching pets (and humans) running into walls and windows is just hilarious. Sometimes I think that instead of video taping some things, the parents should stop something from happening. Otherwise, I think the show is hilarious and a great idea. Unfortunately, you cannot catch everything on video and I can just imagine what events people do not catch on tape, but I think it is a great excuse to carry your video camera around.
This show is so hilarious! It gets the corowd involved to submitting videos. There are so many really funny ones! It's very hard to figure out what my personal favorite is after watching the show so many times. well, anyway, i can't say who my favroite host is, just because they both do a good job. I watch the show whenever it is on either ABC (or whichever channel the new version is on) and Nick at Night. They are both incredibly funny. So i would say that for comedey movies, they need not to spend thousands of dollars for hiring tom cruise, just hire my next door neighbor, you can see them on AFV! (just so you know, i have no idea if my neighbor has ever been on the show, i'm just using that as an example!)
America's Funniest Home Videos is ABC's longest-running comedy series. The show began with original host Bob Saget (Full House)The series was an instant sensation on Sunday nights and ran for seven successful seasons. The show was re-launched with new hosts John Fugelsang (a stand up comedian with a one man show called Junk Male) & Daisy Fuentes (Loving), with a new hour long format, and moved to Monday nights where it would once again become a ratings success and then aired on Saturday. Then, after several years of being shown as an occasional special hosted by D.L. Hughley (The Hughleys) and Richard Kind (Spin City), ABC brought the series back on Friday nights with new host Tom Bergeron (Hollywood Squares). In September 2003, it was moved back to Sunday nights. Once again, the series has become a success. On This Show First Price is 10,000 and second is 5,000 and 3,000 for third also there is a 100,000 grand price show every so often where the 10,000 winners compete for 100,000. i love this show and thse are the reasons why
This is the best show on TV these days. Great family show with lots of funny videos. There are lots of painful videos too and makes you wonder why people do some stupid stunts...Tom Bergeron is the best host this show has ever had, very entertaining and funny. Hope this show never ends. I also hope there could be more reruns of old shows. I liked it a lot. I love this TV show! Also, this TV show always makes me laughing so hard, because it is so funny! . . . . . . . . . .
