Bob Saget: That Ain't Right

A lot of people here are bashing this stand up, claiming Saget's gratuitous use of the F word is to show he is not the same character on Full House. Saget has been doing stand up like this for decades. His jokes were really off the cuff and seem to be just flowing out of his head. He interacts with the audience a lot and if you allow yourself to be bombarded by this stream of consciousnesses/ stream of vulgarity and gross out humor you will enjoy the ride. I would give it a solid 7.5/10. He really has a unique way of doing stand up, and if you think his "jokes" from full house were funny then you should probably not see this special because this is real humor, a comedian's humor.

Bob Saget swears a lot in his standup which may be shocking for fans of "Full House" or "America's Funniest Home Videos". His machine gun delivery is laced with swear words like tracer rounds directing the laughter.

I'm not shocked by any swearing. I find his relentless swearing more like a crutch for slightly less funny material. It's like white noise that interferes with the writing. I'm more confounded by the constant laughter from the audience. I didn't watch "Full House" but I don't mind watching some crotch hits on "Funniest Videos". I wonder if his audience is so white bread that they are shocked into laughing by his swearing.

I'm also not a fan of his constant need to reassure the audience that his material isn't real. It keeps stopping the material for me. Instead of reversing on having sex with Kimmy Gibbler, it would funnier to double down on it. At least, it would be more daring. Why not include a donkey? Where's the pedophilia joke? He swears a lot but isn't actually that risqué.

Wow, I've never paid that much attention to Bob Saget, but when I've seen him before he's been pretty funny, versatile actor and performer and fairly original and funny.

So, I saw Bob Saget: That Ain't Right on my streaming HBOnow channel and thought I would enjoy some comedy. What I saw was what seemed to be an incoherent guy who was apparently convinced that he was or had been a comedian and still "had it" trying to be funny and dirty at the same time.

I watched, and kept watching and minute by minute I felt my life and my patience fading away. Gosh, I am sorry for whatever happened to Bob Saget, but that does not mean I want to be confronted with his problems and mental deficiencies for over and hour in a comedy special that is not funny.

Sorry to break it to you, but as I said, if you are close to normal, which I am not that close to normal, but I don't think an average person with an average sense of humor is going to find watching this comedy special worth your time ,.. especially if you have to pay for it. Don't.

I basically feel the same way I did about his 2013 special as I do this, only difference being I feel like he actually prepared jokes this time, while in 'That's what I'm talking about' he sounded like he just went on stage unprepared and started talking, with nothing but his usual wit. So this was better, got a few chuckles out of me. His material isn't that diverse as he spends most of the time talking about his previous shows so if you're unfamiliar with those you won't relate as much, which was my case. If you already liked Bob Saget being Bob Saget then you'll enjoy this because it is a peculiar type of humor, but if you didn't and are just looking for a special to watch it's worth second guessing, not something I'd recommend.

This is probably one of the worst pieces of comedy I have ever seen. He uses the F word, among many other curse words, and disgusting dialog (penis jokes, dogs balls, etc) to get laughs. He has too much of a squeaky clean image to pull off the vulgar comedian. It somehow was funny when Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy and now Chris Rock did the vulgar comedy style. Saget could't pull it off.

I always kind of felt sorry for Saget as the 'unfunny' comedian. He has never made me laugh in anything he has done. My friends and I used to mute the TV when he hosted "America's Funniest Home Videos." He was so annoying and distracting, it was better to mute it and listen to music while we watched.
