BlogTalkRadio.com: Peri Gilpin: Bob ‘Full House’ Saget is America’s Smutmeister

Bookmark and Share

Could one man possibly be responsible for all of our nation’s salacious schtick?

Yes, say sitcom staples Peri Gilpin and Candace Cameron Bure – and that man is Bob Saget.

CAPTION: Peri: Wise to “funny”man’s ways.

Peri: Wise to “funny”man’s ways.

Interviewed on Mr. Media, Peri, who played Roz Doyle on Frasier, and Candace, who played D.J. Tanner on Full House, roast their pal Bob – who led the Full House cast as widowed dad Danny Tanner – big-time.

Discussing her TV alma mater with host Bob Andelman, Candace says:

“There’s definitely a place for shows like Full House, where, as parents, we can safely allow our children to watch, and not worry about whether they’ll be exposed to something that isn’t age- appropriate.”

That’s when Peri, who co-stars with Candace in the ABC Family series Make It or Break It, jumps in with this zinger:

“Wait a minute. What about Bob Saget?”

“Exactly. I grew up with that,” replies Candace. “I grew up wayyyy too fast.”

“Are you going to blame everything bad that’s happened to you on Saget?” asks our host.

“We’re blaming him for all the dirty jokes in our lives,” says Peri.

“All the dirty jokes in America,” adds Candace.

“I know Bob because I work out at the gym with him – and Candace was there, too, for a while,” says Peri, before whacking the final nail into the Sagat legacy:

“So I know Bob’s little ‘spicy act.’”

Make It or Break It premieres Monday, June 22.

Bookmark and Share
Dear Mr. Media Interviews Listeners,

Yesterday, November 6, 2008, the Mr. Media Interviews podcast recorded its 100,000th archive download on the BlogTalkRadio.com network!

I just wanted to take a moment to thank the many loyal and new listeners who have spread the word about the show and contributed to its growing success. We joined BTR at the beginning of the year and saw a steady climb from May to September as we got the hang of things and the quality and number of guests increased exponentially.

By September 10, 2008, we reached 50,000 downloads; less than two months later, we had 50,000 more!

A special thanks to the folks at BlogTalkRadio for their support, starting with Amy Domestico, who invited Mr. Media onboard, as well as CEO Alan Levy and Philip Recchia, Hilary Leewong, Deborah Ng, Luke Armour, John Sweet, Shaun Omac, John Federico, Nikki Starr and Demos Yannikos, as well as supportive fellow hosts such as Dr. Blogstein, The Fly Lady and Friends, Olivia Wilder, Pete Williams, Collen at LSPC Reviews, I Got My Reasons, and Movie Geeks Unlimited.

Thanks, everybody!

Sincerely,

Bob Andelman
Mr. Media
