Bob Saget: That's What I'm Talkin' About

I feel like this isn't really stand-up comedy, more like Bob Saget just bring Bob Saget. There were very few actual jokes, most of it was him just being quick and witty(in a dumb way), as well as his usual erratic random flow of conversation. A lot of shock value. I've watched his 3 minute performance at Dangerfield's from 1984, one of his more lauded performances from his early days and thought it was funny so I wanted to see his other work. Both of these are crude and immature, difference is in that, it felt like he actually wrote jokes, while here in 'that's what I'm talking about', it feels like he just went on stage and started talking. It really wasn't my type of humor, even though I liked the few actual jokes, but if you already like Bob Saget you might find this more enjoyable because it's just him being himself as I said earlier.

From what I've seen, most people who didn't like it say it's crude and all, most people who liked it say they do 'cause it's a different person from Full house and AFHV, crude and all. People either love it or don't for the same reason.

If I give a rating for this it'd be a really poor one but some people seemed to find it funny so I guess it's just not my type of humour, however objective I'd like to fancy myself.

This is some awkward stand-up, as it never really gets anywhere. Saget spends most of his time just razzing the audience (particularly a kid who calls himself J-Bone). Yet, this somehow works, because Saget is just fun to watch do his thing. Not quite sure why he was talking strange through much of the act, but who knows?

He is still cashing in on his connections with Dave Coulier and John Stamos and telling stories about what they do on their own time. And that is pure brilliance. Whether or not the stories are true, he knows he picked up his big fan base as Danny Tanner and then being vulgar to counter-act it. And people love it. Heck, I would be first in line if he came through here.

Saget does it again. This too-brief set showcases his skill as a ribald raconteur. This Vaudeville is as classic as the ages, and modern in every perceivable respect at the same time. Saget shies away from no topic. I will not list them so as not to spoil the essential surprise, but they are priceless.

The crowd takes the spotlight frequently, especially a few choice audience members who at various times possess abnormally small or large genitalia, explosive diarrhea, or any sort of perverted, sand-lot nonsense, and oddly it WORKS.

Worth the hour, and 15 minutes more, if it existed.

A couple half decent jokes in the hour somewhere, but mostly just a lot of jokes using the word "come" as a double entendre and the audience laughing like they didn't see it coming a mile a way.

If "FOL = fart out loud" makes you laugh out loud, this show is for you.

For the rest of us, it's just a guy trying his hardest to see if he can use profane language, non sequitur or not, forced or not, for an hour straight.

This is woeful. Saget bored the crap out of me in Full House and then FHV now he thinks he is comedic. Whomever wrote the first review must be Saget or his mother. The guy is boring and witless. Retire, become a drunk and ask for money from GoFundMe because you have no skills whatsoever
