Bob Saget Is Hosting an Edgier Version of America's Funniest Videos

Making its debut three decades after Americas Funniest Home Videos first aired, Videos After Dark will serve up the weirdest and wildest videos that smartphone cameras can capture.

Just talkin about my new show Im extremely excited about - @videosafterdark which has a first look this Tuesday, March 12th at 10pm/9c @ABCNetwork right after the season finale of @BachelorABC - Just want you all to have a good laugh, which we all need. pic.twitter.com/8CxiOJxj0U - bob saget (@bobsaget) March 8, 2019

Saget, best known for playing Danny Tanner in Full House and revival Fuller House, and his narration in How I Met Your Mother, has enjoyed a second act as a bawdy stand-up comic in recent years, touring with his Dirty Daddy set and releasing a book of the same name. And Videos After Dark, as the name suggests, is likely to include some edgier material as well.

There are people that are inebriated, Saget teased in a promotional video for the show. If a preacher is marrying a couple, and he is completely intoxicated, I want to see that!

He is quick to assure viewers, however, that the show isnt just about laughing at other peoples misfortune: Yes, people do fall down, but Ive always had a strict policy that I want to see them get up. Dont cut with somebody just going through a skylight!

Theres a reason that thirty years since he first hosted AFHV, viral videos of epic fails are still such a big deal, and Saget thinks it's their relatability. People do some pretty silly things that they shouldnt do, and theres nothing funnier because its human foibles, he said.

In the promo for Videos After Dark, which airs tonight at 10 pm/9c, Saget also offers some sage advice to viewers: Stay away from lions!
