The death of beloved comedian and actor Bob Saget is a sad reminder that anyone who turned on a TV in the 1990s is a little sad.
Danny was a recurring character on Full House from 1987 to 1995 and on the revival of the show from 2016 to 2020. He was the host of America's Funniest Home Videos from 1989 to 1997 and the narrator of How I Met Your Mother from 2005 to 2014).
While that's more titanic success than most working actors ever get to see, it's his more adult-oriented comedy that made him unique in pop culture. There is no doubt that a lot of Gen Xers don't remember seeing the Half Baked coming-out moment where the lovable TV family man suddenly showed up as a recovering drug user.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the sheriff's department in the area confirmed that Saget was found unresponsive in a hotel room and pronounced dead at the scene. There were no signs of drug use or foul play according to the department.
The comedian had performed in Jacksonville, Florida on Saturday night and posted a message to his followers on social media. He said in the final post that he had no idea he was doing a set. I'm addicted to this shit again.
