I was in high school when AFV began airing. I remember the show being on at my dad's house quite often. He was a big fan of the program. These days, AFV streams on a couple of different platforms, including ABC on Sunday evenings.

A southeast Idaho family won a cash prize recently after a video they sent in showed a father tricking his son into spilling the beans about a gift the boy's mother bought for him. The boy tries very hard to keep the fact that a shirt was bought for his dad a secret, but then ultimately goofs up and reveals the secret after some trickery by his dad.

The video placed third on the episode, according to the YouTube channel it was shared on. Three videos are chosen for each episode, and the grand prize-winning family takes home a check for $20,000. The show is also currently giving people a chance to win $100,000 for submissions.
