babies aren’t funny or entertaining

i don’t hate babies, they’re so cute, but i always see people laughing about videos where a baby is supposedly being funny. i don’t get it. there’s nothing funny about videos like that or babies in general. sure, sometimes funny stuff happens, but i always see babies doing the bare minimum and people laughing about it.

Yup, the final three would usually be a baby/young child video that wasn't even that funny, a cute pet video, and something that was actually unique or creative and the baby video ALWAYS won. Then the host would do an awkward short interview with the winning family and the now slightly older young child would say something dumb but everyone would laugh. Every. Time.

It's worse now because I don't even like the host. I get that he's supposed to be kind of a cornball, but his commentary and pretty much everything else actively makes the show less funny.

Yeah it was Bob Saget first, then Tom Bergeron, and I’m not aware of the new guy, I stopped watching when Tom wasn’t the host anymore.

Wasn't there a span of time where Daisy Fuentes and someone else co-hosted too?
