5. Bob Saget - Half Baked
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_dzDb5v744 I'm guessing when most of us think of Bob Saget, we think of the countless sitcom dads that he has played over the years, whether it's in the classic likes of Full House, or for slightly younger viewers, the short-lived Kat Dennings vehicle Raising Dad (or maybe you've never heard of that one). Either way, Saget is frequently cast in this type of role for a reason, and so when he cropped up in 1998's drug comedy Half Baked, his half-minute cameo completely knocked us for six. "Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck d***k for coke", he declares, completely corrupting our long-held view of him in record time. Casting like this enhances the comedy of the moment so much; Saget, decked out in fairly casual apparel, talking about his lascivious activities in order to score drugs is, bloody hilarious. It seems this also gave him a taste for crude cameos, because his one in Dumb and Dumberer is the single funny moment in the film.
