"Hilarious and at times heartbreaking . . ."--Vanity Fair
A New York Times bestseller
Millions of viewers know and love Bob Saget from his role as the sweetly neurotic father Danny Tanner on the smash hit Full House, and as the charming wisecracking host of America's Funniest Home Videos. And then there are the legions of fans who can't get enough of his scatological, out-of-his-mind stand-up routines, comedy specials, and outrageously profane performances in such shows as HBO's Entourage and the hit documentary The Aristocrats.
In his bold and wildly entertaining publishing debut, he continues to embrace his dark side and gives readers the book they have long been waiting for--hilarious and often dirty. Bob believes there's a time and a place for filth. From his never-before-heard stories of what really went on behind the scenes of two of the most successful family shows of all times, with co-stars like John Stamos and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, to his tales of legendary friends and colleagues like Rodney Dangerfield, Richard Pryor, Don Rickles, and other show business legends, Saget opens up about some of his personal experiences with life and death, his career, and his reputation for sick humor--all with his highly original blend of silliness, vulgarity, humor and heart, and all framed by a man who loves being funny above all else.
This brutally honest and hilarious book pulls back the curtain on:
- Two Worlds, One Comedian: The unflinching look at the bipolar world of being America's favorite dad by day and an out-of-his-mind, profane stand-up comic by night.
- Full House Confidential: What really happened on set with John Stamos and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, plus the video clips they could never show on America's Funniest Home Videos.
- Tales of Comedy Legends: Candid, never-before-told stories of life on the road and in the clubs with icons like Rodney Dangerfield, Don Rickles, and Richard Pryor.
- Coping Through Dark Humor: How a family history of profound loss shaped his famously sick sense of humor and why gallows humor became his greatest survival tool.
