The beloved America’s Funniest Home Videos is the longest-running primetime entertainment show on ABC. Currently hosted by Alfonso Ribeiro, the show features the funniest real-life moments, from DIY gone wrong to classic clumsiness. The clips are selected from thousands of user-submitted home videos and the funniest ones receive cash prizes. In season 33, the show is increasing its prizes to $4,000 for third, $6,000 for second, and a whopping $20,000 for first place–and first-place winners move on to a finalist competition for a $100,000 prize.

There are commercials throughout the shows.
- Hulu – commercial-free ($17.99): This plan provides Hulu on-demand without commercials. (Due to network arrangements, Grey’s Anatomy, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and How To Get Away With Murder will always have commercials)
