As a fan since the very first episode .....


....it pains me to give up on this show. But, the new host is the worst the show has ever had, by far, IMHO. I've seen every episode without fail, but these days it seems like YouTube does it better (and sooo much faster) than this sick and dying old mare of a television show.

It took you THIS long to realize that? In my opinion this show should have been cancelled years ago.

It always airs when there's absolutely nothing else on. This current timeslot of 7pm on a Sunday means I almost always end up watching it.

It's probably one of the most profitable shows in the history of television. That's by no means to say it's the best, but when you consider viewers provide the content for free and the costs associated with the show are basically the salaries of the producers and Alphonso Ribero, AFV is a cash cow. I don't know how it does in the ratings, but anything the show is a good sacrificial lamb to 60 minutes or the Fox animated comedies and in the fall NBC's "Football Night in America."

There is no one on the face of this good earth, nor in the history of time, who is as nail-screechingly annoying as Bob Saget.
