His jokes in Home Videos are very cheesy, and very bad. I think that's kinda the charm for me. He clearly hates every second of it, so that dead pan delivery of his makes it funny to me.
Why did the unfunny baby video always win those things? It's not America's Cutest Home Videos people!
...
Remember America's Funniest People? That was the ultimate grasping at straws. "Hey! Let's rip off not only the concept of the show, but use yet another Full House cast member for it!"
Fuller House is a gigantic missed opportunity. That show could have been full of self-aware humor making fun of the kind of show the original was. Heck, I would have introduced all sorts of dark elements and found a way to end it on a positive note every episode in spite of all that. Well, shows like Grace Under Fire kinda beat that to the punch, but still...
Louie CK is a better comedian though, by far. Tosh.0 is the sort of "home video" show you make if you don't mind not knowing if someone just plain died in front of you (I'm pretty sure at least a few people couldn't have survived the things I've seen on his selections). It's a pretty mean spirited show.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
