World's Funniest Animals is an upcoming American video clip television series produced by Associated Television International. The series is scheduled to air on The CW in Fall 2020.[1]
Premise
Following a format similar to America's Funniest Home Videos, the series showcases viral internet clips of funny animal moments, hilarious animal clips from major motion pictures and TV shows, animal outtakes that surprise the whole cast and crew, videos of babies and pets as well as celebrities and their pets.
Development
On May 14, 2020, The CW announced that in light of television production suspending across the United States on account of the COVID-19 pandemic, the network would be pushing its new season to January 2021 and would be airing acquired and encore programming in Fall 2020 instead. This gave rise to World's Funniest Animals as the series comprises mainly of a compilation of comic animal clips from various sources and thus is easy to be produced remotely, in its majority. Shortly after, it was announced that the series would be hosted by Elizabeth Stanton.[2][3]
