Last night's Roast of Bob Saget on Comedy Central featured various comics and one special guest, Cloris Leachman, the only A-listed person on the stage.
Leachman's appearance at Comedy Central's roast of Bob Saget, who played the single dad on "Full House," elevated the entire affair.
Saget's blue comedy stand up routine and segment in the movie, "Aristocrats" doused his squeaky "Funniest Video" clean image.
Oscar winner and star of so many iconic TV shows and films, Leachman smiled and took it all in stride as each D-Listed comic took his pot-shot at her age and mental faculties.
She had the last laugh.
Cloris opened her comments by saying, "I am not here to roast Bob Saget. I'm here to f*ck John Stamos."

Somehow that seems more like an ICK factor than funny!
