Most Guilty House Videos in America (often abbreviated to AFHV or airborne abbreviations AFV ) is an American clip television video series on ABC, featuring funny homemade videos submitted by viewers. The most common videos feature unintentional physical comedies (arising from incidents, accidents, and accidents), pets or children, and some practical jokes that are staged.
Originally aired as a special in 1989, it debuted as a regular weekly series in 1990. It was hosted by Bob Saget for the 1989 special and the first eight seasons of the incarnation series, then by John Fugelsang and Daisy Fuentes for the ninth and tenth season. After two years of occasional special shows, hosted by various actors and comedians like D.L. Hughley and Richard Kind, ABC brought this series back on Friday night in the summer of 2001 with new host Tom Bergeron, who has since become the longest series host, hosting 15 seasons. Bergeron announced in 2014 that he will set out to host the show, and Alfonso Ribeiro takes over as host in 2015.

Premise
Executives produced by Vin Di Bona, Todd Thicke and Michele Nasraway, and created by Vin Di Bona, are the longest (non-news) primetime entertainment program on ABC (both in the current networking schedule and dating back to ABC's merger as a television network in 1948). It is based on Tokyo Funcast's TV Broadcasting System with Kato-chan and Ken-chan , featuring segments where viewers are invited to send video clips from their home movies; ABC, which owns half of the program, paid royalty fees to the Tokyo Broadcasting System for the use of the format (although the original parents showed it left the air in 1992). A more similar concept in the overall show for 30 to 45 minutes consists only of short clips from an amateur home video with a slapstick-like crash presented by the host that began broadcasting just two months after the commencement of Fun TV with Kato-chan and Ken -chan in Japan, under the title Pleiten, Pech und Pannen (lit., "Crash, bad luck, and slip ups") in Germany in March 1986, the program lasted until 2003.
Contestants can post their videos by uploading them as digital files to the event's official website AFV.com, launched in 2012. From 2008 to 2012, viewers can digitally upload their videos to ABC's ABC.com website; after a separate website for the program is online, users who try to access the Nicest Videos in America page on the ABC website - through the event page link in the site program menu - are now automatically redirected to AFV.com and forwarded to the process of uploading clips on the site. Video can also be sent by conventional mail on VHS and other home video formats (VHS-C, 8 mm video cassette, to name a few), and then as a format began to become common for home recording use in the early 2000s decade, DVD to address Hollywood, California, mailboxes with clips placed on USB flash drives and other forms of consumer flash memory formats are also acceptable for physical delivery over time.
Due to its extremely low cost and universal appeal, the format has been reproduced worldwide and television specials and AFV special series continue to appear regularly in the United States. American television series inspired by AFV ' s format unrelated to the series itself including The Most Islandful Animals on the Planet , The World's Most Funny! , Funny Moments in the World , The Most Fun Pets & amp; People and Just Painful When I Laugh ; However, most of the series inspired by AFV (with the smallest exceptions of the Most Bizarre Animals on the Planet) ) do not match the success of Most Convicted Home Videos in America and has not lasted long. Some local television stations, even those not affiliated with ABC, also developed a special fun home video segment in their newscasts during the early 1990s, inspired by the series.
Most video clips are short (5-30 seconds) and are mostly associated with host monologues. Videos usually show people and animals involved in a cute accident caught on camera; while others include intelligent marriage proposals, people and animals that feature exciting talent (like pets that sound like they say certain words or phrases, or toddlers with the ability to name all previous US Presidents), and practical jokes. A group of filters looked at the tapes that were sent, giving them a score (on a scale of 1-10) based on the tape's humor. The videos that are considered the funniest by the editors then turn to show producers and then submitted to Di Bona and other producers for final approval. Home video material involving staged accidents, or/and adults, children, or infants with serious injury or animal abuse or as a whole does not meet the standards and practices of ABC networks that are generally not accepted and will not appear on the show.
Every week, three of the videos viewed (which are among those included in the episode) are selected by the manufacturer and selected by the studio audience. The winner wins $ 10,000 and is on his way to a $ 100,000 prize at the end of a seven or ten show, while runner-up receives $ 3,000 and a third-place video receives $ 2,000. In the first season of the event, the second and third prizes are respectively new TVs and new VCRs and camcorders. In the first special hours, the main prize is $ 5,000 with second and third places both winning a new camcorder; producers choose the winner, without voting audience. Periodically, starting with Tom Bergeron running the series and proceeding to Alfonso Ribiero run, the grand prize winner in the $ 100,000 final contest each season will also win a free holiday package, provided by Adventures by Disney or Disney Vacation Club, in addition to prize money. Program studio segments were recorded in front of studio audiences (although the specials aired in 1999 and 2000 only featured pre-recorded audience responses); spectators are asked to dress "business casually or better".
Show creator Vin Di Bona has produced two similar programs: Cute People in America (1990-94) and Most Fun Videos in the World (1996). In Bona also created two series that featured home videos mostly taken from those seen on AFHV and America's Most Guilty People : the syndicated series That's Funny (2004-06) and Fox Family Channel series Show Me The Funny (1998-2000). Many clips have been used internationally in various comedy compilation programs, with changes such as voiceover and subtitling. The event title is usually changed and the studio segment is removed.
As stated in the closing credits of each episode, most of the videos have been edited for long duration due to time constraints. In addition, according to the contest plug, a family member (either direct or relative) of Vin Di Bona Productions, ABC, Inc. employees, its parent company The Walt Disney Company (and for most ownership of Saget hosting, its predecessor law, Capital City/ABC) and their associated subsidiaries are not eligible for contests and event prizes.
On October 3, 2010, starting with the season 21 premiere, America's Funniest Home Videos started airing in high definition. Many of the videos, mostly taken with standard definition camcorders, are horizontally stretched to fit the 16: 9 screen. However, since the 2012-13 season, videos recorded in standard 4: 3 definition have been given pillarboxed (especially video recorded on mobile devices taken at a vertical angle that does not even fit a 4: 3 safe area from a lot of television entirely; from conversion to HD, this series displays suggestions to viewers to tilt their mobile device horizontally to when recording for their videos to fit the 16 screen : 9). By 2014, all episodes of the show originally produced and aired in standard definitions before the premiere of 21 seasons and the initial conversion of events to HD capabilities simultaneously in 2010 and/or already aired in syndication for nearly a decade or more (and still are) withdrawn vertically down with slightly re-edited graphics due to widescreen and HD broadcasting capabilities and signals on more broadcast (and cable) television stations, 25th anniversary of AFV, 15th and last year of Tom Bergeron as event host, and the entry of Alfonso Ribiero as the current host in season 26 which also includes a new set of songs, a new version of the theme song, new graphics, and a new logo among other things; while funny video clips were recorded using camcorders before 2009 or years before the invention of current mobile devices such as the iPhone or iPad (and especially the videos that aired on episodes in Bob Saget, John Fugelsang, Daisy Fuentes, and the early era of Tom Bergeron of AFV ) continues (and still continues in the Alfonso Ribiero run AFV) to stretch horizontally to this day.

History
1989-97: Bob Saget
The show began on November 26, 1989 as a one-hour special, produced by Vin Di Bona and Steve Paskay, with actor/comedian Bob Saget (later starring ABC sitcom Full House ) as host. Saget is assisted in a special hosting by actress Kellie Martin, then star of fellow ABC series Life Goes On, a family drama that will serve as the initial program for AFHV for the first four seasons of the show. last. Prior to the initial special broadcast, during the fall of 1989, Vin Di Bona Productions took out ads in national magazines (such as TV Guide ) asking people to post videos in their homes that featured funny or stunning moments.
John Ritter was Vin's first choice at Bona as a host, but he proved unavailable.
Originally intended as a special one-off, it became an unexpected hit, causing ABC to place an episode sequence for the show turning it into a regular half hour regular primetime series; it debuted as a regular series on January 14, 1990, with Bob Saget being the host. Ernie Anderson, the announcer for some of ABC's commercials and shows at the time, was the original announcer of the program. He was replaced by radio and television actor Gary Owens in 1995, who remained in that role until Saget left, but Anderson briefly returned shortly before his death in February 1997.
In addition to hosting the series, Saget also serves as a staff member of the author, alongside Todd Thicke and Bob Arnott. The success of AFHV leads to a spin-off called America's Funniest People , hosted by Dave Coulier's co-star Saget Full House (and guided together by actress/producer Arleen Sorkin for the first two seasons, then Tawny Kitaen's model for the last two), focusing on videos that show people intentionally trying to be funny by performing celebrity shows, pranking and doing short amateur comedy routines, among others.
During the first four seasons of the event, The Most Colorful House Video in America airs on Sunday night at 8:00. Eastern time; starting with the fifth season, the show begins Sunday's primetime lineup on ABC, airing at 7:00 pm. Eastern, followed by America's Funniest People at 7:30 am. The Eastern part as part of a long block of funny home videos. Saget always ends every episode with the phrase "Keep the cameras safely", and say something to his wife who (accidentally) watches the show.
Beginning around the first half of the season, the show begins to feature the segment "American Assignment", which calls for a series of videos to be sent (collected or created) relating to a particular theme. Another segment introduced during Saget's leadership as host called "Backwards Classics," shows videos that are reversed in reverse with classical music. Since the show's debut as a regular series, the show regularly covers two to three episodes per episode, a video-themed montage organized into a particular song, called "Music Montage"; classical songs (mostly from the 1950s to the 1970s, with only a few songs from the 1980s spread over) were used during this montage in the original series of series, though newer pop, R & amp; B and rock songs have been included since Tom Bergeron became the host. In season five, an animated sidekick was introduced called "Stretchy McGillicuddy" (voiced by Danny Mann), known for trying to seduce Saget and do other crazy things. In one episode (in season five), he was shown on two large TV monitors on both sides of the set and Bob had to turn them off with the remote. His flexible slogan is: "Do not be a bit Bob, I'm just a little stretchy!" The character was dropped from the show at the end of the seventh season.
In 1994, ABC canceled America's Funniest People after four seasons due to a ratings downgrade and had to decide what to do on Sunday night at 7:30 am. Eastern slots are now left empty. After a brief sitcom On Our Own at 7:30. slot after AFHV during the 1994-95 season, ABC then chose to expand Most Colorful Home Video in America to an hour with back-to-back views, with new episodes of the week displayed within the first half hour, followed by a repetition of the previous season to fill in the remaining time. On February 1, 1996, another spin-off AFHV made its debut called World's Funniest Videos ; which was recorded at Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida; The series is also hosted by Coulier, along with actress Eva LaRue. Paired with a special weekly version of Before They Were Stars on Thursday night, World Funniest Videos focuses on funny and amazing home videos from around the world. However, due to low ratings, ABC put it in hiatus a few weeks after its debut, before canceling the series straight after just one season and burning the rest of the summer's episode. For the last season of Saget at AFHV , two new episodes will be shown.
Many theatrical comedies were performed on set during Saget's tenure as host. The set consists of a living room design (main set, originally a three-wall design with bay windows, it was renovated for the 1992-93 season as a flat frame frame with translucent walls - although the furniture is displayed on the original set anyway). The beginning of each episode is tied to a skit shortly before the transition is made from the introduction to Saget. This usually consists of several actors in a fake room (usually at the top of the audience or on other sounds) pretending to be excited about watching The Most Guilty House Videos in America . This technique was canceled at the end of the fifth season.
Saget soon got bored with the recurring format and was eager to pursue other projects as a comedian, actor, and director. Producer In Bona arrested him with his contract, leaving Saget frustrated endlessly moving, constantly getting out of character, and making sharp statements in the air over the past two seasons. Saget's contract expired in May 1997, and he decided to leave the show afterwards. However, according to Vin Di Bona, producers feel that change (and host change) is needed for AFV as a result of ABC through leadership change (hence the transition of ABC ownership from Capital Cities to Disney). Former full-fledged Friends (except Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) are present in the episode before the $ 100,000 season finale (which also features 3-D skits as part of ABC's weekly promotional gimmick), which is the last episode. Saget returned to America's Funniest Home Videos on two different occasions, firstly, to host together 20 editions of the 20th anniversary special with Tom Bergeron, which aired on November 29, 2009 (which is four days closer than the actual 20th anniversary of AFV from its premiere in the air on November 26, 1989); and on May 17, 2015, he appeared as a cameo at the end of the last episode of Tom Bergeron as host of the AFV at Disneyland. He has yet to make his first guest appearance at AFV Alfonso Ribiero, who will be the third guest appearance on the show and a guest appearance both on the street or in the studio.
1998-99: John Fugelsang & amp; Daisy Fuentes
After Saget's departure from the series, ABC was absent The Most Guilty Home Video in America from the fall of the 1997-98 network schedule, opting to take it back as a mid-season replacement. The show starts in turns called AFV at this point (though the event is officially continuously titled The Most Guilty Home Video in America ). The series returns for season nine on January 5, 1998, with new hosts, an overhauled look and a new rendition of the theme song. Comedian John Fugelsang and television personality model turned into Daisy Fuentes took over as the host of the show. Jess Harnell also replaced Owens as an event announcer and still holds this position to this day.
During this period, the event introduced a segment called "Bad News, Good News," which shows videos of accidents; then one of the hosts made a funny remark about the positive side of what happened. This segment continues to appear sometime until the fourth year of duty Tom Bergeron as host. Another important segment is the "AFV Hall of Fame", where the clip is displayed, and Fugelsang reveals the moment of impact (the screen showing the still image of the clip) that occurred inside it. This segment is deleted at the end of season ten. Another segment featured is "Who Would You Like to See...", where people are randomly asked which celebrities they want to see involved in a funny accident, with a celebrity's face photograph printed on the face of the actual person in the video.
With Sunday night 7:00 pm Eastern time slots are now occupied by Disney movies aired as part of The Wonderful World of Disney , the show is constantly changing timeslots, moving from Monday night to Thursday night until Saturday night. The ratings for the show went through this period, and Fuentes and Fugelsang left the show after two seasons in 1999. Their final episode - which aired on May 6 of that year - was recorded at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, California. The only honorable mention of John Fugelsang, Daisy Fuentes, and the segment that showcased their run to date is the 2-part special 300th AFV special episode in 2003 during the early years of Bergeron run, which also showcased the series of Saget episodes in selected segments, as well. They have not made their first guest appearance on the street or in the studio at AFV, as they have never been invited back as guests since their last episode as colleagues in 1999.
1999-2000: Specials
In May 1999, ABC announced that it would stop The Most Colorful Home Video in America as a regular weekly series, but the show was occasionally re-featured as a special series hosted by various ABC sitcoms including The Hughleys DL star Hughley and Spin City opposite Richard Kind. The show moved to a much smaller soundstage and the set featured a variety of video screens and monitors (resembling an iMac computer) housed on shelves. The special sports version of the show called AFV: The Sports Edition , hosted by ESPN anchor Stuart Scott, is republished every New Year's Day and aired occasionally before the NBA playoff game with 8:30 pm post. Eastern Time tip-off until 2008. Specifically titled The Most Guilty Home Video in America: Deluxe Uncensored (released only on home videos, and featuring content somewhat more risky than allowed on television) is hosted by Steve Carell and recorded on the set used from the 1998-99 season. These specials (except for special sports editions) are not recorded in front of a live studio audience, with applause and pre-recorded laughter tapes used during commercial bumpers and just before, during, and after video packs are used instead.
2001-15: Tom Bergeron
In October 2000, ABC announced its decision to return Most Beautiful Home Videos in America as a regular weekly series, ordering 13 new episodes. On July 20, 2001, the show returned in its third format, this time with host Tom Bergeron (who also hosted Hollywood Squares at the time). At this point, the show expanded to a one-hour full episode instead of two consecutive half-hour episodes. The show is now visible on Friday night at 8:00 pm. Eastern time; However, it continued hiatus for two months due in part to the September 11 attacks and also because ABC aired specials and tried the new Friday night lineup. The formation was short-lived, and the show returned to schedule in December 2001. In the previous episode, Bergeron used the set (with a large translucent iMac computer) from AFV specials that aired in 2000, until the end of his first season, when a new set studio audience) was introduced by displaying a round video screen with multiple monitors.
In September 2003, the show returned to Sunday at 7:00 pm. Eastern curfew is still an hour long (although special episodes occasionally aired on Friday night through 2007). Unlike Saget, who gave voice-overs to the clips, Bergeron hilariously told them, though he lent his voice to several clips from time to time.
The Bergeron version adds new segments, such as "Tom's Home Movies", in which the face is superimposed on the face of a person in each video with various expressions shown to match the person's reaction to the accident in the video (the repeated gag referenced by Bergeron in this segment is on the head that is superimposed to be larger than normal size), various audience participation games using funny home videos including "Head, Gut, or Groin," where Tom selects one or two members of the studio audience to guess whether the person in the video will be beaten in three areas of the body to win the compilation DVD of America's Funniest Home Videos (since the 2012-13 season, the bobblehead of Bergeron is awarded as a gift) and the "slo-mo gizmo", in which the video plays first on normal speed and then again at a slower speed and telestration. Bergeron almost always ends every episode with the phrase "If you get a recording (video), you can get it in cash", which is then changed to "Upload us, get rich, become famous" in the 2008-09 season.
While only four segments ("Vs.", "The Dog/Cat Park", "Name That Sound", and "A Moment With...") continue to be displayed on Alfonso Ribiero's current AFV, segments are introduced (and still seen in reruns) during this period when Tom Bergeron hosted the event including:
- "Vs." (showing a compilation of two related sets of videos, where the "winner" of both is revealed at the end, followed by a fictitious "preview" of the video where the winner is claimed to face in the next segment)
- "A Moment of Ewww" (featuring videos that focus on something as nasty as mucus that hangs from someone's nose after a sneeze)
- "The Dog/Cat Park" (an animal video compilation featuring a dog or cat named after the animal shown)
- "AFV Family of the Week" (featuring funny videos of adults and kids, the "family" feature is actually people who do not have family connections)
- "Nincompoop Corner" (a compilation of videos of people who go into situations that funnyly display a lack of good judgment)
- "AFV Dictionary" (featuring a funny dictionary definition created to apply to the displayed video)
- "Name the Sound" (which displays audio from an unusual sound, followed by a video clip that comes from a voice that usually reveals a person or animal that makes a sound)
- "Choose a Real Video" (a multiple-choice game where the viewer is asked to choose which videos to show)
- "What's Behind the Blue Blob", "Kid, Cat, or Canine" (both and "What's Behind the Blue Blob" is a game requested by members of the audience to guess people, animals, or objects featured in a later video revealed)
- "The Naughty File" (featuring videos that incorporate inappropriate behavior like a child who is urinating at a family gathering)
- "A Moment With..." (Out of the normal video is shown for a few seconds)
- "What's up with France?"
- "AFV Pop Quiz" (a multiple choice game that leads to and out of the ad break where the viewer is asked to guess what happens next on the video)
- "AFV Club $ 10,000" (the initial segment where home videos have won $ 10,000 in previous shows on display)
- Mystery Mystery Mystery (the early segment where Tom tells a video with mysterious things going on like a balloon replaces face, in the form of headlines)
- On This Day in AFV History (the early segment where Tom tells a very long video, with a date, which Tom said that date, for example, a video from October 10, 1987 features a child petting a dog , which bites it in the crotch)

Theme song
The original AFV theme song is "The Funny Things You Do", composed by Dan Slider and performed by Jill Colucci, who also wrote the lyrics with Stewart Harris. This version of the song is accompanied by opening and closing credits for the first seven and half seasons. The theme was reused once again when Tom Bergeron introduced Bob Saget as well as the classic video magazine and Saget's first intro moments to the stage of the pilot episode and the last segment (using the original lyrics of the theme) featuring Saget (during the first eight seasons AFV) the 20th anniversary of the AFV's special AFV , which aired in 2009. A series of online video shows titled AFV XD are recorded for the use of this theme song version, as well as parts of the original graph from season 1989-97. During the final part of the $ 100,000 show, bands and other artists will play the theme. Midway through the last season of Saget in 1997, the theme was changed (as well as graphics and animation from the show intro) featuring new vocal duet, Peter Hix (who had previously performed the theme song for America's Funniest People) and Terry Wood. The new version is also set in a different key than the original.
When AFHV returned for the ninth season with new host Daisy Fuentes and John Fugelsang in 1998, a completely new arrangement of "The Funny Things You Do" made its debut. Since then, the theme has become instrumental (also composed by Slider) with a faster ska/reggae beat, with original keys restored, making it sound similar to "The Impression That I Get" by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones. Alternative versions of this theme have been stripped of the trumpet (this version only sounds as a cover theme during the 2002-03 season on ABC and broadcast the running syndication, as well as in the re-edited bumper with additional video clips of that particular episode in some episodes of the 2002- 03 in syndication broadcasting). In reruns of the Fugelsang-Fuentes episode at WGN America and later Bergeron episodes at WGN America and ABC Family, the theme was noticeably slowed during the opening titles and commercial bumps.
For the 26th season, with new host Alfonso Ribeiro, the new arrangement "The Funny Things You Do" was introduced with the inaugural episode of this season in 2015, replacing the 1998 theme after seventeen seasons. The current theme, which is also created by Slider, is more similar to the original version with the key of that theme, and the addition of the 1998 version hook is retained.
Themes of 1998 and 2015 can be heard in full at the Museum of Music Production Television. The two themes then used during the post-Saget era have not been released to this day, as they are reportedly held by Vin Di Bona.
"The Funny Things You Do" was the theme song for the Australian version between 1991 and 2004. It was replaced by an instrumental version as part of a major change in 2005.
Almost all episodes of AFHV are, or have been, in syndication. Each period airs separately. Until 2001, Saget's version was syndicated by 20th Television, which took over the syndication rights through the purchase of MTM Enterprises, which has syndicated performances from 1995 to 1998. Disney-ABC Domestic Television (formerly Buena Vista Television), sister company of one of the show's production companies , ABC Productions, distributes all versions of this series.
episode of Bob Saget
The Bob Saget episodes are divided into two separate packages: Seasons 1-5 (1989-94) and Seasons 6-8 (1994-97). Episodes from Seasons 1-5 Bob Saget aired in off-network syndication. It aired on Pax from 2003-2005, Nick on Nite from April 30, 2007 through October 2007, and Hallmark Channel in 2010-11.
In the run of Pax from Bob Saget run, when the back-to-back episodes aired, the final credits of the first episode (with few exceptions from executive producer Vin Di Bona on several episodes and marching bands that did the AFV theme at the end of stage of $ 100,000 events that may require an authentic final credit show) and the opening title of the second episode was cut and replaced with an announcer saying "Now do not go, here's more than America's Funniest Home Video !" before cutting into Ernie Anderson introducing Saget. Some versions of Saget at Pax, Hallmark, and Nick at Nite cut interviews with the winners due to time constraints. The longer ad breaks that are not visible on US broadcast television during the period during which the episode is aired on ABC. The contest plug is retained when Pax airs the episode. In Nick on Nite and Hallmark airs, some episodes have contest plugs replaced with modern contest plugs announced by Jess Harnell.
Episodes from Seasons 6-8, aired on ABC Family from September 2004 to April 2007. This episode has contest plugs and other obsolete information removed.

Tom Bergeron episode
The Tom Bergeron episodes began airing outside the syndicated network on September 14, 2009; WGN America also aired off-network syndication episodes late into the night until September 2011, while alternate versions of the Bergeron (and sometimes Fugelsang-Fuentes) episodes with Buena Vista Television tags before the end of the credits were aired at night. UpTV started airing (and is currently on the air) reruns of Tom Bergeron's AFV episodes in (and since) 2016. Months before and in preparation for the AFV's 25th anniversary and the 15th and last 15th season of Tom Bergeron as AFV host in season 25, since August 2014, Tom Bergeron's 2001-2010 episode of last season for repeating his re-syndication was re-edited to make them more HD-friendly and erase almost all obsolete information and contest plugs on several episodes. Editing evidence can be seen when the image is enlarged back to its original default definition format during final credits (WGN America and UpTV only) with colored blades using an event background color scheme different from last season on the left. and the right side of the screen. The 2009-2015 episode of Tom Bergeron with a re-edited 20 season package starts airing for the first time in a syndication on TBS on September 15, 2014. On October 3, 2016, several episodes of the 2001-2009 Tomcaton syndication Package that was aired in reruns in another cable network for more than a decade eventually became part of AFE's early morning AFE arrangement. Just like the initial ABC broadcast, while the syndication episodes continue to use all the different color and logo variations from the ABC Entertainment and Vin Di Bona Productions labels before or after the final credits, depending on the station or cable network, they have not shown Buena Vista Television or even ABC Studios or the Disney/ABC Domestic Television distribution tag since Autumn 2014.
