Maxwell Schneller's Profile

If you used to "Wake Up, San Francisco" but now wake up to a whole new reality, Bob Saget is still your man. This weekend Saget gave the most outrageous stand-up performance I've ever seen. While most people now realize that he works blue, it's impossible to capture just how dirty his comedy gets. Saget flew on stage with a mile-a-minute routine.
