Capture something on camera and insult everybody

No matter who hosted this, the show sucked.

It was so unfunny that I almost had to drop my pants while I was running to the bathroom because my cat scratched my eyes out while my kid was throwing up all over the couch.

My wife was burning the chicken in the oven, while the dog ran through our wedding cake and everybody fell into the pool wearing their underwear as they were carrying bags of grocery's where the bottoms fell apart and eggs fell out on the sidewalk and broke.

The mailman slipped on the eggs while he was delivering a pizza covered in melting chocolate and crashed into the paperboy riding his bike, pushing him into the oncoming bus.

We have it all on tape with some horrible music as well - Yeah...we have to be told now what is funny by a go no-where family sitcom has been who never was and then we have to see the same videos replayed 3 or 4 times in repeat in case we didn't see the little baby fall into the sewer the first time.

It's a horrible TV show what should have never been made or even thought of...and to have numerous spin-offs and shows with different hosts is an insult to humans.
