Did you see Saget in The Aristocrats? He was phenomenally filthy. And hilarious.
 
It's on HBO West now, and it's about the 20th time I've seen this. Still, the stream-of-consciousness animal-****ing bit with Jared of the audience always has me in tears.
 
The thing I like about Bob is that it doesn't seem like he takes a breath. He reminds me of a friend of mine with his delivery. And he's way more vulgar. It's like the polar opposite of Danny Tanner.
 
He strikes me in that show as having done a mountain of blow beforehand. Doesn't lessen the hiliarity mind you.

It wouldn't surprise me if he was on something. I'm not watching, but I've seen his act a couple times, and his delivery never changes.
 
I must be in the minority, because I didn't laugh at that special. I was extremely disappointed. Seemed that every sentence had to have at least one profanity and/or sexual reference in it.

I have a mouth like a sailor, and even I was appalled. I guess I think true comedic genius lies when you don't have to appeal to the lowest common denominator.

Present company excluded. :D

He was indeed phenomenally filthy. If anyone hasn't seen the Aristocrats, I highly recommend it. Many good laughs to be had

Fornicate yourself in your vagina you fornicating mother fornicater.

See? Doesn't have quite the same oomph. :D
 
After his telling of The Aristocrats, anything else he does is tame.

BTW: The Aristocrats is the funniest "movie" I have ever seen

I agree with Walter here. Once you get past the initial novelty of "Hey, look! It's Danny Tanner and he's swearing!" ol' Bob has little or nothing to say. Turned it off 10 minutes in.

By the way, anyone ever seen the intro to the Full House pilot, when another guy was playing Danny? It's like walking into an alternate universe.

Seen it? Some of us own the DVD.
 
Watched it and then flipped to NBC and "1 vs. 100" was on and he went blue there too. The contestant was a pretty blond woman and one of the mob said "Bob, you have a soft spot for her" and Sagat said "It used to be soft."

Had me chuckling.
