America's Funniest Home Videos

Go ahead and laugh. We do. This is slapstick comedy at its best and worst. Despite what our mothers told us, we laugh at other people falling down, getting hit, hitting themselves, throwing up, playing pranks, getting pranked, and being very stupid. I can't explain it, but no matter how many different ways you see it, it's still funny to watch a baby whack her daddy in the groin, or the bride fall into her wedding cake, or the idiot sled into the parked car. Without commercials, this version of the TV show is relentless in its delivery of visual gags.
