America's Funniest Home Videos Vol. 1 (Disc 01 - Episode 02) For those unfamiliar with the show, here's a quick synopsis. Each episode is made up of a collection of funny video clips that are submitted by the show's American audience. The clips' subject matter varies, but the most common topics include babies doing cute or disgusting baby things, painful or amazing feats at sporting events, wedding disasters and, of course, getting hit in the groin. To make each episode show a little more interesting, three clips are chosen to compete for a cash prize. How they are chosen, I don't understand, but it appears to be at random. The "finalists" for the cash prize are announced toward the end of the episode. The studio audience then votes for their favorite and, finally, the winners are interviewed. So it's kind of a game show, too. This set features the award-winning reality comedy's 11th season. Though the set is well packaged I do have one issue with the collection. Segues to and back from commercial breaks were left in each episode. These are unnecessary and get somewhat distracting after a while. It would have been nice if the editors could have pulled those out. But even with that flaw, it's exactly what you expect it to be. It's mindless fun, pure and simple. If you enjoy the show, you'll enjoy this collection.
