'Blue' Bob Saget Upset by Olsen Jokes
Celebrity roasts are by definition raunchy. They’re filled with the kind of humor that pushes the the bar really LOW. And when the bar is set at that standard, it can be hard not to go overboard. But apparently, Bob Saget was upset by some of the jokes at his celebrity roast for Comedy Central. There were a ton of Olsen twin barbs, which one would think Saget would have known to expect. According to the New York Post:
Bob Saget says some of his comic friends went too far by hurling crude jokes and sexual references at Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen during his “roast” Sunday night. “Anybody who talks about my TV kids - that upsets me the most,” Saget told The Post. “I am very protective. I love them very, very much.”
John Stamos, Saget’s former “Full House” co-star, emceed - and took the first swipe at the 22-year-old moguls. “The whole time Bob and I were doing ‘Full House,’ he was also hosting ‘America’s Funniest Home Videos,’ ” he said. “His entire job consisted of saying ‘Take a look at this’ which is what he used to say to Mary Kate in her dressing room.”Afterward, Stamos said he has no idea how the Olsen sisters will react. “I truthfully don’t know where their sense of humor lies these days,” he said. “I thought some of it was a little over the top. They’re still my friends,” he said of Mary-Kate and Ashley. “I think the comics crossed the line a few times.”
Not that Gilbert Gottfried - who suggested in his routine that Saget seduced his TV kids with chocolate milkshakes - seemed to care. “If you are an Olsen girl, you deserve it,” he said. “They’re going to just have to go home and cry in their billions of dollars.”
Hey "Blue" Bob, what goes around comes around...
