Videos After Dark

Videos After Dark is an American late-night television program that premiered on ABC in March, 2019. The show is a spin-off from America's Funniest Home Videos, with Bob Saget returning to offer his comedic commentary. Capitalizing on the singular legacy of America's Funniest Home Videos, this program seeks to highlight humor that's edgier and more adult-oriented, hence airing after the kids are presumably asleep. Saget, a stand-up comedian and Full House alumnus who hosted America's Funniest Home Videos between 1989 and 1997, continues his legacy of engaging, entertaining comedy with Videos After Dark.

The central theme of the show revolves around the crazy, surprising and hilarious videos that audiences have loved for decades. Except this time, the content caters more to adult sensibilities with its more risqué elements and edgier humor. Adopting a similar format to America's Funniest Home Videos, Saget provides viewers with his unique brand of comedic narration and witticism for a variety of clips from one-of-a-kind mishaps, epic fails, cute animals, babies doing the darndest things, and everything in between that guarantees a good chuckle.

Moreover, Videos After Dark dives deeper into the vault of hilarious content submitted to America's Funniest Home Videos over the years. The hour-long episodes feature an uncensored selection of videos that were too risqué for the daytime timeslot of the original show. There's something intrinsically delightful about watching real life caught in the act of being unpredictable, clumsy, cute, and above all, humorous, and Videos After Dark taps into the timeless appeal of this simple joy.

Bob Saget brings his unique touch to the presentation. His humor frequently edges towards the unconventional, peppering the clips with his unique blend of sarcastic and edgy commentary. He is much loved by fans for his ability to make the mundane hilariously absurd and the absurd hilariously relatable. As with America's Funniest Home Videos, Saget hooks viewers into Videos After Dark with his distinctly playful and entertaining persona.

Additionally, keeping in stride with the original show, Saget interacts with the studio audience, often sharing amusing personal anecdotes and engaging them in playful banter. As a host, Saget’s ability to keep the audience entertained, both on television and in the studio, is incandescent. His spontaneous interaction with the crowd not only adds an element of unpredictability but also solidifies his rapport with viewers.

The producers of the show, Vin Di Bona and Michele Nasraway, are also the creators of America's Funniest Home Videos. They bring their expertise in curating home videos and mastering the right blend of humor and humanity to Videos After Dark. Their signature production touches are found throughout and contribute to the show's allure.

Videos After Dark gives adult viewers an opportunity to indulge in the joy of humorous unexpected chaos, which, while not entirely void of America's Funniest Home Videos' characteristic family-friendly humor, provides a slightly naughtier after-hours alternative. This show is for those who love to unwind with a dose of laughter before calling it a day or even long-time AFHV fans who want to see what didn’t make the cut in its original slot due to its more adult content.

In summary, Videos After Dark is a humorous and entertaining showcase of home video content, reminiscent of its predecessor but with an edgier, adult-oriented twist. With Bob Saget's unique sense of humor guiding the audience through an assortment of hilarious clips, the show promises a good-natured chortle for any late-night watcher. Though the show retains the essence of America's Funniest Home Videos, it also establishes its distinct identity with an uncensored selection of more risqué content, a further testament to the timeless magnetism of laughter from real-life absurdities captured on camera. Videos After Dark captures the spirit of the original show but with a cheekier and, as the name suggests, slightly darker twist, making it a perfect cap-off to the day for adult viewers.
