Bob Saget is best known as the star of ABC's "Full House" for eight seasons and as the host of "America's Funniest Home Videos." Unfortunately, these shows were not able to show Lord Saget for who he really is: the dirtiest and, by far, funniest man alive (as anyone who has ever seen his stand-up routine can surely vouch).

He also toured with many top musical acts, playing at such venues as Carnegie Hall and the main showrooms of Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and Atlantic City. After moving to New York in 1987, he began a six-month stint as co-host of "The
