'Full House' star's mockery will air on Aug. 17

Following in the esteemed footsteps of Flavor Flav, Pamela Anderson and William Shatner, Bob Saget will get the Comedy Central roast treatment.

The "Comedy Central Roast of Bob Saget" will tape in Los Angeles and air on the cable network on Sunday, Aug. 17. Expect plenty of dirty jokes about the Olsen Twins.

"It's an honor..." Saget says in a statement. "My ass is already sore."

Still best known for his work on "Full House" and "America's Funniest Home Videos," Saget has redefined himself in less family-friendly terms in recent years. Check out his HBO special "That Ain't Right" and, of course, "The Aristocrats" for Saget's foul-mouthed side.

Still, Elizabeth Porter, Comedy Central's senior vice president, specials and talent, insists, "Bob Saget is one of the true nice guys. I've apologized to him in advance for what this evening holds in store for him."
