It's good, clean and funny. But in their zest to cram in as many pratfalls and bean balls as they can, the producers concentrate on the mishap and almost never on the aftermath. Everything is edited down to tiny bites.

I'm ashamed to admit it in front of my more serious colleagues, but I think the show can be very funny. Of course, like everything else on TV, some of it hits, a lot of it misses. But in the midst of the pain, cruelty, ridicule and abuse, not to mention boredom, somebody falls into a manhole and I find myself bursting out laughing. [29 Mar 1990]

The only thing more uneven than the quality of the videos is host Bob Saget's comic commentary.

The times may be ripe for featherbrained entertainment, for aggressive escapism. ... I suspect that ... 'America's Funniest Home Videos' may eventually tumble as fast as it soared. The predictable diet of cute kids and animals, weddings and sports, is already somewhat numbing. [1 Mar 1990]

Downright megabominable, a half hour of mostly violent, amateur-produced slapstick whose biggest victims are inevitably its smallest participants. Children.

America's Funniest Home Videos is a great show. It's just no good now that Bob Saget's not hosting it. I don't care for Tom Bergeron. Bob Saget ruled!

I love this show, it's is so funny, it is one of the greastest shows of all times. It is hilarious, this show needs to be on more often, I mean i laugh until i cry whenever i watch this show
