“You might be a سٹار, ستارہ tonight, so let that camera roll!”

I cannot agree مزید there. After all, life can be full of surprises, and America’s Funniest ہوم ویڈیوز is one really awesome TV series that shows how true that is, and in a very big way, too. Plus, the camcorder کی, camcorder looked (and was) quite different back in 1989, when AFV (as America’s Funniest ہوم ویڈیوز is also sometimes called) premiered on November 26, although as an hour-long special pilot episode. Basically, they were big, black and bulky, as well as expensive when it came to the price range. Also, آپ had to record on the camcorder کی, camcorder سے طرف کی using a VHS tape.

Also, Kellie Martin (who starred on Life Goes On, which aired directly before America’s Funniest ہوم Videos) was a guest host with Bob Saget on the first episode. Speaking of which, the first episode was supposed to be a one-off special on television, but, much to everyone’s surprise, it was a huge hit. This prompted ABC to take the دکھائیں and air it as a program that lasted for half an hour. It began airing as a regular TV series on January 14, 1990, and as of now, it has been running for 26 seasons so far (which I consider to be quite an accomplishment there).

On the show’s pilot, the first place winner won $5,000, while the سیکنڈ and third place winners would take ہوم a brand new ویژن ٹیلی and video camera. As the دکھائیں went on, after Season 2, the prize increased to $10,000 for the first prize video, $3,000 for second, and $2,000 for third. All the winning ویڈیوز of the season would come back on the دکھائیں to compete for the $100,000 grand prize at the end of the season.

Bob: And if آپ buy a camcorder, آپ have to realize your life is never gonna be the same. آپ could turn life’s little surprises into a special, a movie of the week, or, who knows, a hit series and the really big bucks, and a completely superficial life, just like mine.

Truer words were never spoken.

I remember some episodes from when Bob Saget was the host — from November 26, 1989, to May 1997. At the end of almost every episode, he would usually say “Keep those cameras safely rolling”, before saying something to his wife, who was (implied to be) watching the show. (However, his last two episodes did not have him do the “And honey…” closer. سے طرف کی that point, his marriage was crumbling and eventually resulted in a divorce.)
