Cloris Leachman Steals the Show at Roast of Bob Saget

Eighty-two-year-old firecracker Cloris Leachman exposed her quick wit during an appearance on Comedy Central’s "The Roast of Bob Saget." The "Young Frankenstein" and "Mary Tyler Moore Show" legend stole the show when she opened her comments by saying, "I am not here to roast Bob Saget. I’m here to f—- John Stamos."

Leachman’s award-winning career started in the late 1940s. She studied at the Actor’s Studio under the famed Elia Kazan. But she is best remembered for her role of nosy landlady Phyllis Lindstrom on the "Mary Tyler Moore Show," and as Frau Blücher in the original Mel Brooks movie, "Young Frankenstein."

The eight-time Emmy Award winner brought down the house with naughty references to handsome John Stamos as well as her late friend Jack Benny. Her risqué remarks can be viewed below:

funnier than hell. And she looks SEXY. I couldn’t believe she didn’t get some kind of an oscar nod for her role in Spanglish.

Cloris Leachman is on my favorites lists. I always enjoy watching her but her dress is eye-catching in this presentation. Does anyone know anything about it? Doesn’t she look great at the age of 82? We should all be so lucky.

Talked to her at a Christmas party in St.Louis about 15 years ago. A party she would rather not been in any way interested. What a good sport and good lady.

The Last Picture Show was my favorite movie with her but I have seen almost all of her work and she never disappoints. And she is still great.

I have always LOVED Cloris Leachman. I think she is incredibly beautiful and has such a beautiful spirit. If I can look half as good at her age, I will truly be blessed.
