such a shocking thing to wake up to
I only really got to watch Full House properly a few years ago and there was just something so comforting about the show that I ended up watching the entire series while I was ill for like the entire month.

And as is the trend for recent celebrity deaths, there's conspiracy theories if you go on say, Twitter. (let's just say based on a difference in opinion about a certain current issue and how to solve it)
The heart attack speculation doesn't help.
Which doesn't make it easier...as both sides are very insistent and of course if you explain/repeat a conspiracy theory enough it does make one wonder.
People are going to try to confuse me and that makes childhood losses and any loss even more hurtful.

No one can die nowadays without morons thinking its a conspiracy. It makes me wonder all right. It makes me wonder how everyone got so stupid.

Does anyone know what Bob's true feelings on Full House and AFV were? He devoted time in his stand-up act to talking about how much he despised them (though he did develop lifelong friendships with the cast), but he did show up in Fuller House, so he couldnt have had too much animosity toward it.

Since this was a friend, I had to bite my tongue to a degree. But I was like, this is NOT the time... (EDIT: Snopes said Betty said nothing about getting boosted despite an unfounded quote) It's come to this...even things to do with Betty White need to be politicized and argued. I guess all bets were off when we couldn't agree on Dolly Parton because of those who, shall we say, don't see that the "too" is implicit. Now we wait and see how we can disagree on Fred Rogers or Bob Ross...

This is timely, but.... I think Bea Arthur was like that with The Golden Girls. And we ALL know the stories about her towards Betty now. She also didn't show up for The Golden Palace outside of a guest shot, no? But she did appear at functions remembering the series.

When Norm passed, one of the most touching tributes was from Bob. Who you could hear him tearing up in his youtube video. Bob on television played a super sweet and saccharine dad. In his comedy routine he helped revitalize his career by playing against his type as a crude and raunchy comedian. However, in that video you could see where those two halves of Bob met. I immediately watched Norm at the Saget roast when I heard. You can tell Bob loved every second of that. RIP!

I'm just glad they did Fuller House when they did. Not that he was a main character, but not have Danny Tanner play some part of that would've been really weird.

I remember watching a lot of Full House and America's Funniest Home Videos a lot when I was younger. He was very good on both shows. Then I saw some of his stand-up stuff and was surprised at how raunchy he could be, while still being funny. Not many comics can be funny no matter if they're supposed to be family friendly or they are allowed to be dirty. He could do both very well. RIP Bob Saget.

Every tribute I read about Bob today was about how kind he was to everyone, no matter how much of a nobody you were in the comedy world.

My local newspaper published an article about the investigation report {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}A death investigation report for comedian and actor Bob Saget was released Monday by Florida’s Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
The report states that Saget was expected to check out Sunday and his family had been unable to get ahold of him.
Family members contacted the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, in Grande Lakes. The security sent a team member to perform a welfare check.
When the security team member entered the room, he noted all the lights were off.
Investigators found no signs of foul play. The room was “orderly” with Bob Saget’s items on the nightstand, TV stand, closet, and bathroom.
According to the report, Saget’s “left arm was across his chest while his right arm was resting on the bed. No signs of trauma were seen.”
He observed that Saget was on his bed and was “cold to the touch, yellow and clammy.” No pulse or breathing was detected.
According to deputies, Saget last used his room key to enter the room at 2:17 a.m.
Hotel management spoke with Saget’s wife, Kelly Rizzo, to inform her of his death. He was then pronounced dead at 4:18 p.m.
An initial autopsy found no evidence of drug use or foul play. The cause and manner of death are pending further studies and investigation, which may take up to 10-12 weeks to complete.

So, during the first weeks of the initial covid lockdown, Norm Macdonald had a from-home show called 'Quarantined' where he'd just call people and talk to them. I'd been holding off on watching these and saving them for when I really needed a Norm fix, especially now that Norm's gone.
Just watched Norm talking with Saget for the first time tonight. Can't believe they're both gone:
