America's Funniest Home Videos

The show, which aired on March 12, 2019, was billed as "a special first-look episode" of a series, with more episodes planned to be broadcast "later in the year",[2][3] but as of July 2024, the series premiere remains the only airing.[4] The series would have been a spin-off of America's Funniest Home Videos, the first since 1996's short-lived World's Funniest Videos. Saget served as the original host of America's Funniest Home Videos, from 1989 to 1997. Videos After Dark would have featured video clips from Di Bona's "vast video vault that are more appropriate for an older audience".[5] The show starts off with a clip of a baby eating a brownie disguised as poo out of their diaper, and goes on to feature other similar clips of kids swearing, people running about naked, various wardrobe malfunctions and kids playing with menstrual products. The show also features more traditional clips of people hurting themselves, usually by falling over or messing about with dangerous items such as tasers.
