Dave Coulier

All you Full House fans that are watching Bob Saget's roast this weekend on Comedy Central, might wonder if Dave Coulier is still working.

OK, none of you are wondering that. But I remember Coulier from before Full House, back when he was really corny.

Years before Full House, Coulier had his own cable show, on Nickelodeon, which I watched before I figured out why his name was pronounced that way. It was called Out of Control. This full episode has time travel and tacos. I think the show taught me how to use a carat to insert words between other words on paper. Oh yeah, and he already had his "cut it out" catchphrase worked out.

Oh, wait, looks like he's still around. Look at cleanguys.tv, a clean comedy website, complete with a Clean Guys of Comedy Tour, with no dates left. I hope they have a DVD. It might be a good unicorn chaser after watching The Aristocrats. I know too many comedians that are almost clean, like they don't tell dirty jokes, but they sprinkle their jokes with unnecessary swears. And I know that being clean and funny at the same time is possible, because of Bill Cosby's consistently good stand-up. And he also had a stint on Nickelodeon, with those Picture Pages shorts that aired in the late morning during the preschooler's shows.

tl;dr: After 25 years on television, the Bob Saget roast is going to be Coulier's first time on grown-up TV.
