Why are DVD bloopers/gag reels so terrible?

Are bloopers from 3D animation movies animated then voice acted or are they actual bloopers then animated
They're planned and scripted parodies of actual blooper reels which are voice recorded and then animated.

This is what actual unplanned 3D animation bloopers look like.

Glitches in the cloth, hair, model etc.

Actually L.A.Noire devs took the actual bloopers from the motion capture and rendered it for fun.

A lot of times the blooper reels are for the people who actually worked the show, so they already know the context, which is why they don't care if you don't since its not for you
This basically. It's something for the cast and crew that gets turned into a home video extra.
 
I love me some gag reels but I hate the ones where they have like compilations of dancing and just random expressions and shit. Also, the random stuff that only people who worked on the show would know, you should just leave that for the in-house gag reels.

Anyways, off the top of my head my favorites include:

Rush Hour movies (and a lot of other Jackie Chan movies)
Liar Liar
Friends
 
That one season (six?) of Curb your Enthusiasm had a blooper reel on the special features.. So funny, I would literally watch an entire season of just blooper reels from that show if I could.
