<P> In the final six seasons of Tom Bergeron's run as host, the show started its "Funny Since 1989" campaign in 2009 and had two anniversary seasons . Season 20, in 2009, had a special 20th anniversary episode that aired on November 29, 2009 . The special brought back Bob Saget to AFV for the first time in 12 years as a guest . Both Saget and Bergeron ended that episode with a pinata party skit and a nod to the Star Wars lightsaber fight scenes when the credits started rolling . The pinatas resembled the looks of the two hosts . Five years later, on March 7, 2014, Bergeron announced on his Twitter account that season 25 would be his last . AFV aired a 25th Anniversary Celebrity Celebration special in February 2015 . Bergeron's final new episode from his in - studio stage home of 15 years (which was really his second to final episode) aired on May 10, 2015 (and for the final time in rerun form on ABC on September 13, 2015), and was the final (and season 25's second) $100,000 show of his tenure and featured at different times of the episode a look back at classic and modern funny home videos that defined the show's then - 25 - year run . Bergeron's "real" final new episode aired on May 17, 2015, the season finale, ending his run as host after fifteen seasons (the longest hosting tenure for the series to date). The episode--taped on - location at Disneyland for that season's edition of the annual "Grand Prize Spectacular", AFV's 25th anniversary, and the Disneyland Resort's 60th Anniversary Diamond Celebration that began on May 22, 2015 (which has appeared in various formats since 2005, in which one of the two (formerly three) $100,000 winners from the current season wins a Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, or in earlier seasons, an Adventures by Disney vacation package)--featured an auto - tuned montage of clips and outtakes from Bergeron's run as host and closed with him being escorted after walking off the outdoor stage near Sleeping Beauty Castle following the grand prize presentation on a cart driven by original host Bob Saget in a special cameo appearance . ABC aired encores of this episode on two different occasions . First, on July 19, 2015 to coincide with Disneyland's official 60th birthday on the weekend of July 17, 2015 (the actual 60th anniversary of Disneyland's grand - opening on July 17, 1955) and again on September 20, 2015 as the network's final episode airing, new or rerun, of AFV with Tom Bergeron and him as host signing off for the final time . Tom Bergeron made his first guest appearance in the studio on the season 26 "Grand Prize Spectacular" finale of Alfonso Ribiero's AFV on May 22, 2016 and played the show's final (or is it?) on - air audience participation game "Who Breaks It?" and won an Alfonso Ribiero AFV pillow and socks . </P> <P> On May 19, 2015, two days after Bergeron's final episode aired, ABC announced that Alfonso Ribeiro (known for playing Carlton Banks on The Fresh Prince of Bel - Air) would take over as host of AFV beginning with the season 26 premiere on October 11, 2015 . Bergeron formally introduced Ribeiro's new role as host during the latter's guest performance on the season 20 finale of Dancing with the Stars (Ribeiro appeared as a DWTS competitor and won the prior season). Before becoming the current host of the show, Alfonso Ribeiro made his first (and final) guest appearance in the studio on a season 25 episode of AFV playing one of the show's audience participation games with then - host Tom Bergeron called "Who's Makin' That Racket?". While some of the Tom Bergeron - era clip segments, the in - studio audience, and background parts of the Tom Bergeron - era set props remained intact and / or continued to air for Alfonso Ribeiro's first three seasons, the stage featured a floor layout and stairway connected to a rubics - like cube with flat - screen TVs and new segments (especially for Alfonso Ribiero's run) continued to be added and aired on the show . The Assignment America and musical montage segments that started in the Bob Saget - era and the honorable mentions segments and Disney Grand Prize Vacation Sweepstakes Contests that started in the Tom Bergeron - era also continued . </P> <P> In May 2017, ABC renewed AFV for a 28th season . For the start of the season on October 8, 2017 instead of leading off Sunday nights, it aired Sunday nights at 8 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. CT and was lead into at the start of the season by The Toy Box . During some parts of the holiday season starting on November 26, 2017 and remaining that way for almost the first two months of 2018 through January 21, 2018 (and final' repeat / repeat' on February 4, 2018), AFV aired in a' repeat / new episode' scheduling format . AFV returned with new episodes in the 7 / 6 central timeslot (still an hour - long on Sunday nights) due to holiday movie presentations and specials airing on ABC on Sunday nights at 8 / 7 central during the holiday season on December 10, 2017 and then permanently starting on February 11, 2018 . ABC renewed AFV for a 29th season on March 13, 2018 . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section does not cite any sources .
