With the "roastee" being "Danny Tanner," you have to expect that a fair amount of digs will be made at the Olsen twins - especially the dirty kind. That's precisely what transpired, and Saget wasn't entirely OK with it all. "Anybody who talks about my TV kids - that upsets me the most," Saget tells New York Post. "I am very protective. I love them very much."
The now-22-year-olds were in fact invoked by Stamos, who said during the taping, "The whole time Bob and I were doing Full House, he was also hosting America's Funniest Home Videos.... His entire job consisted of saying 'Take a look at this' - which is what he used to say to Mary-Kate in her dressing room."
With comments like that, do you think Saget's roasters went too far? - Gina DiNunno, with some reporting by Christopher Harnick
