helped launch in 1989, will pay tribute to its original host for the rest of the season with a regular segment showcasing memorable moments from his time on the ABC series.
“I’d forgotten how whimsical and crazy his host bits were — very physical and very visual,” Di Bona told. “In one show he walks on stage in front of the audience and says ‘Did I tell you it’s my birthday?’ And the audience all raises their hands with wrapped gifts for him. It’s that kind of gentle crazy humor that I want younger generations to see from him.”
At the time Saget was a seasoned standup comic and star of ABC’s hit “TGIF” Friday night comedy “Full House.” He was a natural choice to host “AFV,” which began its storied run as a one-off special. It was a flier for ABC, a special adapted from a Japanese TV series format to capitalize on the home video recording revolution as it hit critical mass in the late 1980s.
During his 1989-1997 tenure on “AFV,” “Bob was most proud of his voiceover work,” Di Bona said, adding that none of the subsequent “AFV” hosts have attempted to add that touch to clips. “We spend endless hours in voiceover sessions perfecting how Bob would do that. Oftentimes he would be three to four characters in a clip. That meant tracking three to four channels of voiceover to mix together. It was hysterical and it was exhausting. And in the end, it was funny.
