Bob Saget

Highest Rated: 80% Dirty Daddy: The Bob Saget Tribute (2022)

Lowest Rated: 14% Dirty Work (1998)

Birthday: May 17, 1956

Birthplace: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

Despite being forever known as the buttoned-down, squeaky-clean patriarch of the Tanner clan on the hit family sitcom "Full House" (ABC, 1987-1995), actor-comedian Bob Saget earned a reputation for being one of the filthiest, most foul-mouthed comics in the business. Even before his run on "Full House," Saget was infamous among friends for telling dirty jokes. Which was why it was no surprise to anyone who knew him, that his version of an old vaudevillian joke in the documentary "The Aristocrats" (2005) was the most shocking - and funniest - by any comic in the film - a project which counted among its participants, George Carlin, Chris Rock and Sarah Silverman. But to those unfamiliar with the "real" Saget were downright slack-jawed hearing him describe unmentionable sexual acts committed by a family auditioning for an agent. Because of his small, but unforgettable appearance in the cult movie, Saget earned a new generation of fans - many of whom probably never saw "Full House" anyway. With the help of a primetime gig hosting the popular game show "1 vs. 100" (NBC, 2006-08) and a voiceover role on the popular sitcom "How I Met Your Mother" (CBS 2005-2014), the comedian suddenly found his career reinvigorated at a late stage in life when most comics have already come and gone. While continuing his stand-up career, Saget also took the time to appear in the projects of his old friends, making guest appearances on John Stamos' "Grandfathered" (Fox 2015-16) and reprising his career-making role of Danny Tanner in the reboot "Fuller House" (Netflix- 2016- ).
