''Tosh.0'' was an American television show that starred comedian Creator/DanielTosh and ran on Creator/ComedyCentral. The show is a clip show in the style of ''Series/TheSoup'' that focuses on the internet. The show was originally scheduled to air for a season of ten episodes, but it became unexpectedly popular (alongside being cheap to make), causing Comedy Central to greenlight more episodes. The show aired for a total of twelve seasons.

The first part consists of Daniel showing a string of videos (and occasionally images) found on the internet with humorous commentary about each one. Usually he'll pick one picture or video from the bunch and "put 20 seconds on the clock" [[note]]Though, as Daniel himself has pointed out, the time is usually nowhere near 20 seconds. "It ends when I'm out of jokes."[[/note]] and see how many funny comments he can make in that time. Daniel ends the segment by looking at the last clip more closely in the "Video Breakdown", where he pauses the clip while showing it and shows parts in slow motion to dissect it and give himself time to make more quips.

The second part of the show (and probably its most unique aspect) usually consists of a "Web Redemption", in which a person who has embarrassed themself in an online video is brought on the show and given a chance to "redeem" themselves. The segment usually starts with an interview in which Daniel asks his guest about the background of the video in question, usually followed by some sort of training, then finally, the redemption itself. If the person was trying to do something and failed in their attempt, their redemption will usually be for them to try again and succeed. They have done some variations on this segment, such as a "Web Investigation" where they find if a video was faked.

The third part of the show is more variable in what it features. Originally, Daniel would feature an original celebrity video during this part, though he has, as of late, used the part to interview internet celebrities or just show more videos, with longer commentary on each one. There are some recurring segments that also show up in this part of the show, including "Is it Racist?" and "Guess What Happens Next", both of which are [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin pretty self-explanatory]]. The Viewer Video of the Week is also usually shown during this part, before the commercial break. It's not uncommon for Daniel to also use the fourth segment to show a longer video with more commentary than usual.

The fourth and final segment was once not very significant but now frequently features the show's fans in some way, either through their [[Website/{{Twitter}} tweets]] or through videos they send in. These segments usually begin with Daniel describing the theme of the segment and what he did to get the fans to send in their tweets or videos, followed by showing the tweets/videos themselves. Whenever possible, the tweets/videos usually insult Daniel in some way; frequent targets include his sexuality, the perceived lack of humor in his show, and [[YourMom his mother]].

On August 20, 2020, Comedy Central cancelled the show, with the planned 12th season being it's last. The season premiered on September 25, 2020 and has concluded on November 24, 2020.

For each season, they usually air half during the winter/spring, take a few weeks off, then air the other half during the summer/fall.

* {{Speedrun}}: After watching an actual [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] speedrun video, Daniel does a speedrun of his own show - essentially, walking on stage, showing [[VomitIndiscretionShot vomit indiscretion]], and ending.

* {{BFS}}: Tosh once bought a greatsword and fooled around with it before breaking it by trying to chop wood. Its blade breaks off at the hilt and goes flying, nrealy hitting a camera-man's leg in the process.

*** The Dizzy Dunker is going for his redeeming layup, only to be shot down at the last moment by DennisRodman.

** A lawyer in a courtroom taps a woman with a manilla folder, who instantly starts screaming for dear life, gets up, and then throws herself on the floor.

-->"I'm not saying women are inferior to men. I just think that they should be forced to drink at seperate water fountains."

* GoneHorriblyRight: Daniel noted that his page on Wiki/TheOtherWiki seemed to be lacking, so he encouraged his fans to edit and add whatever they'd like. Soon after, [[http://www.comedycentral.com/tosh.0/2010/02/03/your-wikipedia-entries/ the page was extended-locked due to vandalism.]]

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Daniel will sometimes swap out the Web Redemption for a variation, such as the "Web Reunion" of the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeMJOPlK-0E Crystal Light Dancers]], or the "Web Remix" of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbGkxcY7YFU What What in the Butt]]".

* SpecialGuest: The growing popularity of the show can be seen in the fact that the guests for the Web Redemptions have gone from people in relatively obscure videos to more well-known personalities, like Chris Crocker and Scarlet of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIwTYL1fwJk Scarlet Takes a Tumble]]".

* SurvivalMantra: Janey, the girl who wiped out attempting to do the RiskyBusinessDance, was very cute but Tosh had this to say after her web redemption, "She's ''[[JailBait sixteen]]''! I was saying that the entire time we were filming that segment."

* MeanCharacterNiceActor: If you're familiar with his show and comedic persona, it can be a little disorienting to read an interview with Daniel, where he generally comes off as a rather humble and very nice, even sweet, guy.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Despite the show being rated TV-14 [[note]] the uncensored version of the show has a more fitting TV-MA rating [[/note]], the show is know for having '''tons''' of dark humor and explicit scenes that sometimes surpasses those on other comedy series like ''Series/ItsAlwaysSunnyInPhiladelphia'' and even ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark''.
** All of the puns Daniel made in regard to the unfortunate domain name of the week: hotelkuntz.com.
-->"Because when I think of Paris, I think of Kuntz."
** The season 3 premier. One of the promos for it had Tosh ''out right declaring'' it was messed up.
** Showing ''uncensored vagina and anus'' while showcasing ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' porn.
** He hid an uncensored f-bomb (albeit back-masked) in an episode.
** Episode 622 has too many examples to list, seeing as how it was rated TV-G. The plot involves Daniel doing a family-friendly version of his show, and he pushes that rating to its limits.

* ZettaiRyouiki: Daniel sports thigh-high socks and short-shorts when interviewing the guy from Evolution Of Dance.
