Bob Saget is Dead to Me!

Looks to me like Heart attack or OD.

They _do_ come in threes. Joan Didion, Dwayne Hickman Bob Saget!

WHAT?

You’re going with Joan Didion R3? That’s your #1 in the rule of three?

The corona?

I’ve always thought he was hot and a little suspect.

This is a shock. Not the world's greatest comedian but I did like him.

Holy fuck that’s out of the blue. The celebrity reaper has only been taking old timers as of late.

Dwayne Hickman died???

I heard his standup act was filthy. Thanks for the correct headline format OP.

OD or autoerotic asphyxiation.

Oh dear at the Ritz Carlton?

Must be a drug OD.

Suicide?

Hew was dishy adjacent in the 80s. RIP

Betty White, Dwayne Hickman, Bob Saget -- mostly known from TV - that works

I heard that too, r11. Btw, if someone is labeled a troll (see r1) in the DL system, how are they able to post?

Celebrity three death trolls, please drop dead already.

Wow. 2022 is going to be the year for huge death pool payouts. This one came out of nowhere.

r1 you really are a piece of shit, aren't you?

Florida does it again.

Was he vaxxed?

Wow this is unexpected. I grew up watching Full House. RIP.

Oh God, I follow his young wife on IG, @eatravelrock. She just posted 5 hours ago.

He watched a preview screener of How I Met Your Father, and it killed him.

Could never stand this guy.

Okay, R5, how about Judy Garland, George Burns and Bob Sagat?

Fisting and poppers involved? Asking for a friend.

Will they name a suite for him?

I thought he was foxy, especially once I found out how filthy he really was.

I think post-Covid vascular issues are going to wind up claiming a lot of people this year.

Suicide? Heart Attack? or OD?

My sister was crazy about Full House back in the day (I was a child during its run), so we'd watch it often, and taped the reruns, etc. I know Uncle Jesse was the one everyone found hot but I always had a strange thing for Danny. RIP.

Bob would have loved this tribute

Who will be the next TV sitcom star to go?

Wow, I can’t say I followed him closely, but he was a daily presence in my childhood, like a local news anchor or Bob Barker. I’m shocked.

Bob had covid?

r21 What? Was Full House your spank bank material?

wow!!!

Maybe because I grew up watching Full House as a kid, while my parents watched America's Funniest Home videos but this one really stings. I had to sit down.

I remember trying to learn his Aristocrats bit. I even watched Fuller House as an adult. Wow.

[quote]Who will be the next TV sitcom star to go?

If there really is a God, Scott Baio.

His comedy bit about the extremely fucked up videos they got sent on America's Funniest Home Videos had me screaming with laughter. I was beating the floor with my hand and out of breath. The only other time I've laughed close to that hard was the sex scene in The Bronze.

[quote] I had to sit down.

MARY!!!!!!!

If we’re going with Death Triads, he clearly belongs with Betty White; Sidney Poitier belongs with Peter Bogdonovovich; and Joan Didion belongs with bell hooks. So all 90s sitcom stars, film legends, and acclaimed non-fiction writers be careful unless they want to end up the #3.

His greatest contribution

Geez, this tweet from the sheriff's office seems a bit blunt...and tacky? Using #BobSaget?

How is troll 5917 commenting?

R3 Dwayne Hickman is dead too???

Sheriff said no sign of drug use according to this reporter. I'm betting a heart attack.

He’s a legendary TV dad. He sounded like he had breathing issues for the last few years. Listen to him speak on the first episode of Fuller House. He sounds different and like he’s breathing heavier.

He was 65 so I'm guessing heart complications

Bob is such a great actor you can see how careful and fatherly he is with the girls than the other guy they test as Danny Tanner with.

People die.

Today it was Bob Saget and thousands of others.

Tomorrow it may be you.

Has Jodie Sweetin fallen off the wagon yet?

Danny Tanner really did seem like a good dad.

R52 that is Tyler Posey’s dad. He was originally cast but then after they shot the pilot Saget became available (that is who they wanted) so they canned Posey and hired Saget.

Will there be a special episode on Full House dealing with his death?

He would have loved this

They just interrupted AFV to announce it on ABC.

^ Aw

He died the way Bojack Horseman died.

I blame Mary-Kate and Ashley

Same here R30. As a horny closeted teen during the Full House years, I thought he was a hot dad and wondered often about his sizemeat verificatia. RIP.

r53, we all end up the remains of the day.

[quote]Who will be the next TV sitcom star to go?

No comment!

Despite the sheriff's report, I'm still suspicious that drugs weren't somehow involved, even if there weren't any plainly visible in his hotel room. He had no history of health problems & had literally just performed a standup set barely 12 hours earlier. Nowadays 65 is *really* young to die from natural causes (assuming no undisclosed health conditions or anything).

Btw this was his last tweet.

Apparently it wasn't drugs.

[Quote]Earlier today, deputies were called to the Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes for a call about an unresponsive man in a hotel room. The man was identified as Robert Saget & pronounced deceased on scene. Detectives found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case.

[quote]And check BobSaget.com for my dates in 2022 – – Goin’ everywhere until I get the special shot. And then probably keep going cause I’m addicted to this shit. Peace out. ✌️

Oops.

HAS KIMMY GIBBLER BEEN REACHED FOR COMMENT?

Sometimes people just have massive heart attacks, or pulmonary embolism is another one that can come out of the blue.

"I used to suck dick for blow!"

I wonder if it's a Norm MacDonald case where he had an illness and didn't let on. But then again sudden deaths do happen. A great woman I knew passed from a random aneurysm.

This is devastating.

The hearts of '80s and '90s children are crushed tonight. This is a sad day for America -- for the world.

Those who grew up watching Full House are collectively grieving tonight.

Tonight, we the viewers are like Stephanie, DJ and Michelle when they were grieving for their mother.

But, tonight, we are grieving for Dad.

Mary!

Oh god, R73. Grow up.

[quote] Despite the sheriff's report, I'm still suspicious that drugs weren't somehow involved

Hey, quit looking at me. I was in NYC last night.

Also Bob always procured his own drugs.

R63 nobody cares about your meat or how fucked in the head you are

Get a grip R73! You didn't know these ppl. It was just a 30 minute comedy.

it may not have been drugs, but could have been a mix of prescription drugs and sleeping pills.

His stand up was pretty funny and he was a super nice guy. I would’ve ate his ass.

Heart attacks kill men out of nowhere all the time. Aneurisms also. Pulmonary embolism also.

Bob Saget probably just wanted to be with Betty White.

[quote]They _do_ come in threes. Joan Didion, Dwayne Hickman Bob Saget!

Fuck you ASSHOLE!

I don’t think it was like Norm MacDonald hiding he was sick because he was performing just yesterday.

R49 Brian Entin is a hack, not a reputable reporter.

How long before he gets cancelled for being a perv towards the Olsen twins?

Well R73, I liked it. I’m going to go on a starvation diet like DJ and skip a sandwich.

He had gained weight over years so that might be a contributing factor to his health.

Full House was so popular with people who grew up in the '80s and '90s. I pray for them.

And I pray for Candace. I hope God can help her throughout this difficult time.

So this is OT but I have a question. I’m the OP, and when I refreshed the page, I saw r1’ s nasty little post, with it red-lined and a troll designation. Now, there’s nothing there and r1’ s post looks normal. This is the second time this has happened. Anyone know what might be going on?

What was on his home grade camcorder shakily held in the vertical portrait position rather than landscape?

Someone get a straight jacket for R73

[quote]The hearts of '80s and '90s children are crushed tonight. This is a sad day for America -- for the world.

I think we all know who *really* caused his death.

R90 I don't give a shit about Candace.

Full House was a good show. Snobs always thumbed their nose at it, because that's what snobs do, but it was a beloved classic to many people.

80's and 90's kids know all about TGIF. If you weren't there, stand in the back and let others take over.

Let us have this moment.

Was he a heavy drinker?

Why couldn't it have been Dave Coulier?

Could it have been covid related? I am just recovering from that disease and I could barely breathe.

Annoying Candace will probably go on a "grieving TV daughter" media tour now.

Has Aunt Becky commented??

Most likely heart attack if I were to guess. Sixties is a prime time for cardiovascular problems to rear their ugly head. I grew up watching Full House so he was a regular part of my childhood. I wonder if the icy, elven Olsen twins will bother to come out if their hobbit hole and make a statement.

[quote] Alannis

Oh, dear.

I'm an 80s and 90s kid, R96 and I couldn't stand the show. Nothing but eye-roll inducing cheesy dreck with terribly unfunny one-liners.

R87 You’re thinking of John Stamos. Stamos said he’d have sex with them when they turned 18 on Howard Stern. Somehow this has got twisted around to Saget saying this. Saget always had fatherly affection towards the twins. Stamos’ behavior always gets unnoticed probably because he’s c-list on a good day.

[quote] "You ever see his standup? I'm sure there were a lot of people praying it happened sooner."

Seriously, R1. He wasn't funny. It was vulgar for the sake of being "outrageous". I also never liked "Full House", and I'm between Candace and Jodie in age. I'm not nostalgic whatsoever.

All that being said, I'm not celebrating his death. I just feel the incoming outpouring will be way over-the-top, and largely unwarranted.

He is now home with the Lord.

Don't start with the "2022 is starting out very shitty" trope.

People aren't supposed to start flaming out until early February?

I loved that Norm clip. He must have purposely been doing clean humor as a jibe.

Full House, followed by Family Matters and Step by Step. Must-NOT-see TV.

[quote]Goin’ everywhere until I get the special shot. And then probably keep going cause I’m addicted to this shit. Peace out. ✌️

Sorry, but what does "the special shot" mean?

I think that in R81's video, Norm MacDonald is presenting one joke. Bob S. gets it. Though it's not that clever a joke. Except given the context.

He learned the hard way that 65 is too old to be snorting blow.

Have the Olsen Twins commented yet?

How is it clever, R112. Seems unfunny to me.

[quote] "Full House, followed by Family Matters and Step by Step. Must-NOT-see TV."

ESPECIALLY that last one!

R105 My bad. I kept reading comments about how perverted Saget was so I assumed it was true.

and in a Florida hotel.

How tacky but maybe he stayed there because there was a full house.

I liked the tv movie that told a fictional version of his sister's struggle with a dreaded disease called scleroderma. It was called "For Hope" and had a great cast. Dana Delaney played his sister and Harold Gould and Polly Bergen played his parents. They all gave really fine performances.

He wasn't a heavy drinker. He had said he only drank after picking up Mexican laborers at Home Depot. They would go back to his place to go skinny dipping and drink frozen margaritas.

I think Bob Saget has a comedy special on HBO from years ago. It was unfunny to say the least and just a foul mouth.

He will be making filthy jokes in heaven now!

Bob was also the host on america’s funniest home videos and he played wholesome awkward funny to a tee.

[quote]Full House, followed by Family Matters and Step by Step. Must-NOT-see TV.

I loved those cheesy shows as a kid. But, as an adult they aren't watchable. Step by Step's only redeeming factor was that it wasn't frequently aired in syndication like Full House was.

It was a college rite of passage in the 2000s for Bob Saget to tour the area and everyone who grew up watching Full House to realize Danny Tanner was a filthy comic.

Joyce at r116...slice up that Alpine Lace and fill up the coffee bar with those International dairy creamers! NOW, not yesterday

R87 It’s already started.

Step By Step was funny. I wanted Cousin Cody deep inside of me.

[quote] Step by Step's only redeeming factor was

Hot meathead Cody who lived in the driveway

[Quote] How is troll 5917 commenting?

I don't think the tag stops commenting.

Are they going to posthumously MeToo him??

Jinx R128

Did Mary Kate Olsen get to his room in time to hide the drugs?

Sorry he died, but ABC interrupted primetime programming to report his death. Really? Couldn't wait until the news?

He was filthy and filthy rich.

Can I have his stuff?

Social media has made death, especially celebrity deaths, more sobering. It’s crazy how you can post a photo on Instagram one night, and then be dead the next day.

[quote]He will be making filthy jokes in heaven now!

Many Jews don't believe in any afterlife.

Why do I suspect Lori Loughlin's PR team is already manically scheduling dozens of "very special appearances" to commemorate his passing on every major talk show (that will still have her, at least), and organizing a memorial with the Cameron Religious Freak, Jodie Sweetin, Dave Coulter and the Stamos? (The Trollsen Twins will presumably stay as far away from this dumpster fire of feigned agony as possible.)

Think GMA will land the first scoop with Lori first thing tomorrow morning?

Oh, the DRAMA!!!

Bob Saget was as lovely a human as he was funny. And to my mind, he was hilarious. We were close friends and I could not have loved him more.

- Norman Lear

Deeply saddened to learn of the untimely passing of comedian Bob Saget. Beloved by millions as America’s Dad, he was a regular presence in our living rooms, bringing to us the funniest videos and countless belly laughs. Gone too soon, like so many of the brightest souls.

- George Takei

Still in shock. I just spoke with Bob a few days ago. We stayed on the phone as usual making each other laugh. RIP to friend, comedian & fellow Aristocrat Bob Saget.

- Gilbert Gottfried

Bob Saget… Just the funniest and nicest…

- Jon Stewart

I am stunned! Noooo!!!! Bob Saget was just at our house a couple months ago! Truly the most kind man. What a heart. He had suffered so much loss. And he was a wonderful friend to so many. Just heartbreaking. Oh my just horrible. Pensive faceSlightly frowning face We loved him. Broken heart

Oh god. Bob Saget!!! The loveliest man. I was his TV daughter for one season and he was always so kind and protective. So so sorry for his family.

- Kat Dennings

I know that people lose loved ones, good people, every day. No one gets a pass. But the loss of Bob Saget hits deep. If you didn’t know him, he was kind and dear and cared about people deeply. He was the definition of “a good egg”. Too soon he leaves. #RipBobSaget

- Jason Alexander

[quote]Oh, the DRAMA!!!

Indeed. I was a child of the '80s, and even as a young gayling never watched the show because of the absurdity that they could possibly fit THAT many people into a modest-sized SF house (that just so happens to be one of the city's most iconic sights). I know it was called "Full House," but the only other '80s-era show that crammed an even more ridiculous number of people into a relatively small house was "Dallas," where a dozen Ewings lived in what was in real life a 4,000 sq ft McMansion barely five years old when the show premiered (but made to appear larger mainly through lame camera tricks).

He worked blue.

I liked Saget and thought he was funny. He was an interesting character as well. I know I paid closer attention to him after he casually mentioned “letting an old guy blow (him) behind a dumpster” once when he was young and drunk one night after the bars closed. Not an unusual phenomenon IMHO. Despite this agitating the local fraus and Kinsey deniers, he still maintained he was a het, “just open minded.” I think the verbiage was from an interview in the MSM, or at least a gay media outlet. No, I don’t know the source, I have no link, and I will not search for the source/link. Do it yourself, gurrls, or alert your waitress. So, R7 and R30, spank that monkey tonight in his honor.

He had a smile that could light up a room…

R115 - that was the point of the bit.

Will Alanis drop an angry album over him?

I hate the hypocrisy of the ministers. At wakes they say he is now in a better place. What do you mean he's in a better place?! He had a house in the Hamptons! He's not in a better place!!

“Softest dad in history” I agree. RIP Bob

LOL, R153. Good one (or good one, Joan).

RIP, Bob S.

So his sister with elephant skin outlived him?

So much for terminal diseases.

R147 it was believable. People really do cram family into their homes.

It was a 4 bedroom house. Originally each girl had her own room but Danny made Stephanie and DJ share so Jesse could move in to help him. Joey turned the basement into an apartment.

Later Jesse moved into the attic after renovating it, and Joey eventually took his old room. Jesse moved into Becky’s house after they married but eventually they both moved back in because of Michelle’s annoying ass.

He's known to have a huge cock. Too bad for that reason alone. May he RIP.

Well Joan, R153, maybe you’d be in a better place if you hadn’t rejected Jesus.

so, cheers to covid, the speedballs and hookers.

There’s 5 now, they’re running a train 🚂 to heaven

I liked the show as a kid (though was more of a Boy Meets World/Sabrina gayling), but I'm hardly broken up about this. Ever since the Great Death Purge of 2016, it seems like any time a celebrity dies, you have to act like they were your idol.

Of semi-recent celebrities deaths, I can say I was truly saddened by Robin Williams and Carrie Fisher, especially as I had just skipped meeting Carrie on her last book tour. I'll be sad when Carol Burnett goes and when RL Stine goes (he started off my lifelong love of horror).

And I was sad about Anton Yelchin, but that's because he was so young and hot and his death was such a freak accident.

Will the Olsen twins binge on a shared biscuit to cope with their grief?

I’ll bet nobody had Bob Saget on their deathwatch.

This is really fucking sad. Not a fan of Full House but I did watch it a lot as a kid (it was on all the time on 2000s cable). Terribly written and acted but very watchable. It was for kids. Really no different from 70s fluff like The Brady Bunch. John Stamos was hot which kept me watching. Anyway, Bob Saget's standup is so much different. Very raunchy and Jewish as opposed to his bland and wholesome gentile Danny Tanner character. Like night-and-day. I liked his Comedy Central Roast and he seemed like a nice guy. Sad loss.

nobody cares about your meat or how fucked in the head you are

R77 First go check your reading comprehension, because I commented about Bob's sizemeat, not my own, you fuckwit. Next, go die in a grease fire. Kthx asshole.

So which one was the perv, aside from that creepy Dave Coulier?

2nd hand smoke from those chain smoking babies?

[quote] Will the Olsen twins binge on a shared biscuit to cope with their grief?

That's hilarious; but the joke will fall flat with most posters here because Americans say "cookie" rather than "biscuit."

[quote]So which one was the perv, aside from that creepy Dave Coulier?

Mary Kate

He did a fuck load of cocaine, bet that contributed.

[quote] Oh god. Bob Saget!!! The loveliest man. I was his TV daughter for one season and he was always so kind and protective. So so sorry for his family. - Kat Dennings

I remember that Raising Dad sitcom on the WB. Bob did media rounds to promote the show, but it kept getting compared to Full House.

John Stamos was way hotter.

Are you guys sure he wasn't the perv? I thought he had a bet going with the other "Full House" actors that he could bang all the actresses, including the underage ones.

I'm sure I read that on DL, so it must be true.

R176 I was on that

I saw a meme not long ago that said "One Olsen twin looks like she knows how you're going to die and the other looks like she knows when." I wonder if they warned him.

He's hilarious in "The Aristocrats" when he tells the most offensive version possible of the joke--most people had thought up till then he was the wholesome father he played on "Full House," and didn't know how crude his stand-up is.

R167 He would have been a good death pool wild card.

Cancel him anyway! #pervhumous

He wasn't looking too good. He had that fat/bloated look of George Michaels or Carrie Fisher before they passed.

Agree, R165. He was a part of my childhood, but this death doesn't get me as torn up as even some of the more recent ones. I was legitimately heartbroken (I know, MARY) over the deaths of Stephen Sondheim, Joan Didion, and Jean-Paul Belmondo in 2021, three of my favorite ever celebrities, if you can call them that. Betty White, Peter Bogdanovich, Sidney Poitier, Norm MacDonald, Jessica Walter, and Cloris Leachman also saddened me a great deal compared to Saget.

I'm embarrassed to be a 30 something right now.

Everyone on Twitter is like: "I feel like I lost my own dad!!!"

Bob looked fine and aged well. So I never would have guessed he would have died so randomly. Mary-Kate and Ashley on the other hand have looked like death since the late 2000s. How they are still walking and breathing is anyone's guess.

Bob Saget's emotional response to Norm Macdonald's death.

Twitter is all: "MY CHILDHOOD IS DEAD!" or "HE RAPED THE OLSEN TWINS! BURN IN HELL!"

[quote]Holy fuck that’s out of the blue.

It is, R9, I gasped when I saw the alerts on my phone.

I'm sad because he was like my own father.

Saw him around the house a lot, but barely knew him, really.

OMG!!

I dunno, I guess I feel for these celebrity deaths in that they were human beings. But not really. Fuckers were rich and famous. The only celebrity deaths that effected me personally were Selena Quintanilla, James Gandolfini and Whitney Houston. The others, meh.

He was like the father I never had.

People had better ask me if I'm okay.

Celebrity death in a Florida hotel room? Copycat.

What about MJ? R193

I think Liza Minnelli is going to be next. I just have a feeling.

The older I get the more I realized how implausible Full House was. Having very Jewish black-haired Bob Saget be the dad of three WASPy-looking blonde-haired blue-eyed girls. And olive-skinned hair-haired Greek stud John Stamos as their uncle which implies their mom was also Greek. Blond David Coulier would have been better cast as their father maybe he was boning Danny's wife before she died.

*black-haired

Jeez, I never think to ask that when these things happen.

He died choking the chicken. The chicken fought back and won.`

I'm gonna get popcorn and watch Full House. NOT! lol. It's cringey and cheesey. Give me Roseanne or Golden Girls any day.

Has the Princess Di scream queen commented….or screamed?

R193 I agree its sad for the people who knew them, but some people act like every celebrity death is their own personal tragedy. If people were truly honest/not insane, there should only be a handful of celebrities whose deaths truly move them.

He looks really good in OP's pic. I don't think I've seen him look more attractive.

He was better looking in motion.

Mary-Kate and Ashley already getting hounded on social media to make a statement. No different than how they were cyberbullied about declining Fuller House. Then there's the other deranged patients who are accusing Bob of abusing the twins.

Lord Oh Lord, the obsessed morons on Twitter... Best that site is destroyed.

“I am broken. I am gutted. I am in complete and utter shock. I will never ever have another friend like him. I love you so much Bobby." — John Stamos

R196 MJ was a child molester. It just ruined it for me. Just a big phony to get away with his crimes against boys.

Stay strong, twins!

The chicken 🐓

R7 always thought his named was spelled Saggot

I like seeing people refer to him as America’s Dad. He deserves the nickname more than Pill Cosby.

God, I HATED that show!

Bob Faget

Ed O'Neill and Bob Saget were better men than Bill Cosby.

Drugs for sure

Dying in hotels = coke heart attack.

Bob Saget's relationship plans for 2040: "When I’m 84 all I’m gonna do is have sex. Dirty sweaty veiny old-people sex. With the most beautiful, highest-tech machines on the market. That’s right, I got it all planned. It’ll be the year 2040, and I’ll have the hookup! I’ll be getting me some old-man techno pussssayyy!! "Sorry, needed that outburst. Forget everything I just wrote. In 2040 I’d like to be spooning in bed with someone I love. Please submit your applications in double-spaced writing. John Stamos need not apply."

[quote] “I am broken. I am gutted. I am in complete and utter shock. I will never ever have another friend like him. I love you so much Bobby. — John Stamos

Too many "I's" John.

DeltaCron...

Kimmy Gibbler was the best character on that show.

Pretty sure DeltaCron already got proven to be a lab error, it doesn't exist.

r178 On Opie & Anthony with Jim Norton. Bob Saget talks about molesting a lifelike three year old Michelle stand-in doll on set. And when a parent alerted him that the kids were watching on the monitors while they were in class, his reaction was to tell them to turn it off because he was working.

How can they rule out drug use so soon?

They didn't even test his blood!

Dead in a hotel, like Whitney? Or like Chris Burrous?

Where is Andrew Gillum tonight?

Weird r224. Ugh

They always had Lori Laughlin, Andrea Barber and anyone else who was main cast on that show after the twins during the opening credits until season 8, where the twins were promoted to the coveted “and” spot.

He had a great ass for a bottom but he couldn't live forever.

He was working till the end, so this is a bit sudden.

[quote]Dying in hotels = coke heart attack.

Or unexpected fentanyl. That shit is everywhere!

He exited left.... RIP.

Also, during season 8 they went from “Mary-Kate Ashley Olsen” to “Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen” finally

Ashley Olsen already tweeted:

This can’t be reality. There will NEVER be another. My heart is shattered. We love you @bobsaget #RipBobSaget

"I don’t know what to say Broken heart. I have no words. Bob was one of the best humans beings I’ve ever known in my life. I loved him so much."

- Candace Cameron Bure

Fair point, R232. The coke supply is riskier than ever.

Surprised Candace isn't making it about God, R236. She controlled herself, very professional

Also Ashley Olsen doesn't have social media. R235, That's a fan account.

Those three girls look nothing like their dad, but especially their uncle.

Rip to a legend

OMFG!!!

The COVID vaccine struck again! Fucking blood clot shit!!! OMFG!!!!

Thanks for posting that R224. I never liked the guy & thought he was creepy at times.

I have respect for Dave C. from back in the early years of the show.

Dave was promoting the show on some talk show where the guy was trying to make an anti-gay joke & wanted him to rubber stamp it but Dave didn't have any part of it & the joke fell flat You could tell the host was NOT happy that he didn't go along with the whole bit.

It would've been easier for him to just go along with it (as a sign of the times with the AIDS backlash) but he revealed that he was an ally of ours & I have loved him ever since. :)

R239 she isn’t gonna make it into something that will turn some people off… yet anyway. But my mother (who is a born again Christian) said Candace is probably hoping and praying the same thing she is, that Bob accepted Jesus into his heart so he is welcome in heaven. If not, he’s in hell.

Dying in Orlando just makes it sadder.

I saw him trending on Twitter and my first thought was "Was he 'Me Too'd?" but then I was shocked to see what it really was.

At least I died in a nice hotel, unlike Chris Burrous!

The comedy scene is filled with blow and uppers. My guess is also fentanyl or coke induced heart attack.

[quote] I wonder if the icy, elven Olsen twins will bother to come out if their hobbit hole and make a statement.

One already has, apparently (as of now.)

They both will speak on him.

As much as they wanted out of the entertainment industry and wouldn't even do a cameo on the reboot they did love him and still talk to him.

The problem is Bob Saget is a raunchy comedian who likes to push boundaries but he was unfortunately the lead of a family-oriented sitcom. The audience of Full House has a difficulty seeing him as distinct from that role he played. And Full House is a very simplistic show that stays clean with its humor and lacks a lot of imagination in its writing. So when Bob Saget says a politically incorrect shocking joke that is meant to not be taken seriously, the Full House fans do the polar opposite and take it literally. It's such self-righteous bullshit as if nobody says off-color jokes and put their foots in their mouths. So Bob made a pervy joke, people make jokes about eating shit and murder but doesn't mean they do it. Comedy is meant to provoke.

R250 No it's not meant to provoke.

That Ashley Olsen account isn’t Ashley Olsen.

R221, that's hilarious. Gotta keep us shakin' in our boots!

I bet it was a heart attack, possibly drug related.

Not to mention a chronically stinky pussy r256.

R73 I hope this becomes the “Judy Garland” post on DL.

Get a grip MARY.

He actually looked more and more handsome as the show went on. By the final season he looked very handsome.

And yes, the twins were promoted to the “and” spot and their names were finally separated. They also were paid 6 figures per episode for that final season, at 8 years old.

How embarrassing for Entertainment Weekly that they can't tell a fan account from the real thing

An easy and peaceful death with probably no suffering.

That's an everyday occurrence the past few years. On almost every website, including the NYT.

As if there were no typos or mistakes before a few years ago. I read a lot of old newspaper articles as part of my job and many are full of errors.

Has SMG, tweeted her condolences to the family and friends of Bob Seger yet?

Goodnight sweet prince.

RIP Bob, you were the best tv dad during my childhood years and I loved you on AFV. 😔

Fuck 2022 right in the cunt bone.

I will miss him everyday.

I'll bet no one had him in their death pool.

LOL R266 Read the comments. So many people have no concept of humor or use their imaginations. I can't imagine being offended by everything.

r250 I'm fine with gallows humor and enjoy some dirty comics, never liked full house, so there's my bias but Saget was more just shock for the sake of shock... like an edgy try too hard teenager. easily avoided and no big deal to me. But there's always people we sick of the hypocrisy and especially after they die. Yes, most people are only human and often shitty in some way. Albeit, we could also say all in all, he likely would have preferred to be roasted and reacted to in his death than dressed up for sainthood.

I hope someday Susan Dey finds out she’s the Grim Reaper of DL, accompanying every celebrity death post.

He always did a lot of Coke and hookers on his business trips and billed them to his company as trips to Kinko’s. 3 AM trips to Kinko’s.

65? So very young....

[quote]Why do I suspect Lori Loughlin's PR team is already manically scheduling dozens of "very special appearances" to commemorate his passing on every major talk show (that will still have her, at least)

Olivia Jade has already released a live stream on how to do subdued makeup for somber occasions.

I highly doubt it was drug related - heart attacks happen at that age. I mean in the sense that I’m sure he did a healthy amount of drugs for decades contributed to an eventual heart attack in his 60s, sure, but I doubt he actually OD’d - or that he was even “currently using” at that age.

[quote]I will miss him everyday. - Susan Dey

Miss Dey condoles only on rare occasions.

She resents those who would condole falsely in her name.

I've heard of this guy but I've never watched any of his tv shows, never seen him do stand-up comedy, never seen him in performance at all. I tend to think I wasn't missing out on anything.

And Just Like That......

R35 Matthew Perry. Not wishing it on him, but he has been in bad shape.

I will watch over him.

I can empathize.

Thank God Fuller House is off the air or they would have had to kill Danny off and make the girls orphans. But because the show is over, he still lives on on the show.

can someone link the deathpool for 2022?

Were disco lights found in his hotel room?

Maybe it was his hair dye. 65 and not a grey hair?

[quote]Thanks for the correct headline format OP.

All the threads had the exact same headline, you suck-up.

This is so devastating and painful. Full House was such a big part of my childhood. I would watch the show and wish that I was part of the Tanner family because my own home was so broken.

This is just too much.

I don't think I can go to work tomorrow.

R289 Good grief! You're an adult now!

R289, you are so fucking weak!

you must be a troll lol

I remember watching him in the funniest home videos sometimes, it was OK

Who does he leave behind? any cute sons?

[quote] Oh dear at the Ritz Carlton?

I am not weak! Leave me alone.

You don't understand the impact that Full House had on those of us who grew up in the '80s and '90s. Danny Tanner was like our father!!

Was your home as broken as the Aristocrats' was?

R289 Are you working at the funeral home he is headed to?

Sure sounds like it.

That’s sad. I grew up with my mom telling me about the time my parents went to a taping of Bosom Buddies and Bob Saget saying “Look! Here’s Barbie and Ken!” My mom was always like - I’m sorry but your father wasn’t really a Ken… 😭

Full House was cheesy as hell - but it is weird when a “dad” figure from your childhood dies.

[quote]I think it's kind of glamorous to die in a Ritz-Carlton.

It's not bad

but it's not the First Class cabin on a flight from London...

Was he really rumored to be hung?

How are the Tanner girls doing tonight. You would think Michelle would finally fly home from wherever to see her family.

R289 MARY!!!!!!!!

But I hear you. My dad was a cold angry asshole. I watched full house and wished I had a Danny Tanner too.

[quote] Celebrity death in a Florida hotel room? Copycat. — Anna Nicole Smith

At least I had the class to overdose in a Beverly Hills hotel suite.

From the OP's article:

[quote] Bob's been touring the country lately, hitting a lot of destinations throughout the state of Florida, including in Orlando, which got started in September and was supposed to take him through May.

My God the man was 65, should have had plenty of money from the residuals on Full House alone, why was he touring the country for a grueling 9 months. He had a wife and three daughters. I sure hope it was because he loved doing it.

Is it appropriate for Bob to be naked taking a bath with the twins? He’s not their dad.

He got married in 2018 to a woman 23 years younger than him!

All the papers had to say that Bob was found in the nude.

[quote]. I sure hope it was because he loved doing it.

He tweeted just this afternoon that he really loved doing his show last night and has fallen back in love with touring and doing stand up.

Has Reginald Vel Johnson issued a statement?

[quote] but I doubt he actually OD’d - or that he was even “currently using” at that age.

Honey, there are a ton of people using drugs at “that age”. I mean opioid usage alone. Not saying he OD but there are plenty of 60 yo doing drugs.

He looked very bloated.

You should see him now.

I’m guessing since TMZ didn’t announce that it was drug related or an obvious suicide, he must have just croaked naturally. I mean, they seem to know the last time a celeb took a shit.

Or, maybe don’t check bobsaget.com ….

The news keeps saying no sign of drug use. If there were prescription drugs around could the police reveal that? What about privacy laws? Wouldn't the preclude them from commenting on a medical issue like that?

I listened to/watched his most recent podcast episode with BJ Novak and his speech was definitely slurred compared to earlier podcast episodes. You can find it on youtube. My guess is that he was probably drinking/abusing downers and maybe did some coke or another upper before his standup last night where he did a 2 hour set for the first time in a long time. He's also overweight and it was all too much for his heart -- my guess

Are Candi Spelling’s whereabouts at the time of death known?

Found nude in a hotel always makes me thing about Bob Crane.

^think.

What is it about gays wanting people to have died of drug overdoses?

Are gays familiar with heart attacks? Aneurysms? Have they ever heard of fatal falls?

Wow, 2022 is shaping up to be worse than 2021 and 2020. The years keep getting worse and worse.

I noticed his slurring as well.

showbiz hotel room deaths tend to be more of a drug issue and your singling out "the gays" for this issue makes me think you should go back to your MAGAt meeting and leave DL r322

"I'm addicted to this shit..." It's a clue!

I’m worried about Bob Redford.

Here's the most recent Bob Saget podcast that he did 6 days ago where he's slurring his words

They're dropping like flies...what the hell..

Seriously, might be bad taste to post this so soon but my good friend had dinner with her friend who was a TV agent (married to hot Latino Nadine V. at that time) -- and Saget joined them since he was repped by the guy. All was going well but suddenly Saget got extremely paranoid, demanding to know who she was, and then frantically ran away out of the restaurant and into the night (I think they were eating on the patio). She never saw him again nor got an explanation as to what the problem was.

Everyone describes him as "kind" now so maybe he got meds but I don't know, He sounded seriously weird to me.

Any videos released yet of people screaming at the news like when Diana, our Queen of Hearts died?

R330 How long ago was that incident?

The agent was married to Nadine so that could narrow down the years. mid-2000s, I am sure, so a while back. But sounded like big time mental illness.

****NEWSFLASH****

PEOPLE DIE EVERY YEAR!

Susan Dey is on her way...

R335 we all are

Have the Olsen twins commented yet?

R328 = Thanks for posting....Definite slur....Could have been booze. I come from a long line of drunks so I know impaired when I hear it. I also come from a long line of whores--but that's another story...

Are the jars alright?

Y'all think Susan Dey knows that we joke about her here on the DL? I wonder what she thinks of that.

I love how people try to throw the Olson Twins into anything related to Full House. The Olson Twins were just babies and hated doing that show. There is a reason they stay away from EVERYTHING related to Full House.

Doesn’t Susan Dey have fleas in her cunt?

So, I guess they won't comment...^^^

[quote]All the papers had to say that Bob was found in the nude.

Goodbye to an Aristocrat...

Goodbye Danny Tanner...

R341 The Olsen Twins remained friendly/close with Bob Saget though... he's the only one out of the cast that they've stayed in touch with. Ashley especially has shown up for a lot of scleroderma fundraisers that Bob has done and shown up to various events relating to his career. Very sweet photo of Ashley going to Saget's broadway show years ago. She stayed friends with Bob's daughter and there have been paparazzi photos of the three of them going out for dinner sometimes.

[quote]Dying in hotels = coke heart attack.

Nope, he died of injuries from falling down while dancing at a wedding.

The local news described him as Legendary comedian.........seemed a bit much.

Cute photo of Bob and Ashley

He touched our no no

This was three days ago, on the 6th. Listen to how congested he sounds!

R350 he sounds drunk

[quote]Good grief! You're an adult now!

There's a clear divide on here between people who grew up watching Full House and people who didn't.

Some people had "Bill Cosby" as their "TV Dad." Some of us almost a decade later had "Danny Tanner" and his "clipboard of fun."

The show was on for 8 years and was in reruns in syndication for a decade.

You'll just have to take our word for it that the show had an impact, even if it was pure cheese, if only by the sheer virtue of it being around a long time.

R350, he sounded congested on Fuller House as well. He had been like that for a while but he wasn't like that when he was younger.

Good thing he got that booster or this would have been a lot worse!

I offed him before he became a problem.

[quote]Some people had "Bill Cosby" as their "TV Dad." Some of us almost a decade later had "Danny Tanner" and his "clipboard of fun."

The rather considerable difference between the two was that "The Cosby Show" was legitimately groundbreaking for its time. In stark contrast to literally every previous sitcom featuring a Black cast – all of whom lived either in the ghetto or the projects, or formerly lived in the ghetto before moving into a deeeee-luxe apartment in the sky – "The Cosby Show" depicted an actual upper-middle-class Black family, and did so in a consistently well-written & realistic fashion.

If anything it's a pity that the show's legacy has been entirely destroyed – it quite literally no longer exists on the airwaves – by Cosby's serial rape horrors.

[quote]You'll just have to take our word for it that the show had an impact, even if it was pure cheese, if only by the sheer virtue of it being around a long time.

Do you think "Family Ties" had an impact? Or "Who's The Boss?" Or "The Facts of Life"? All three shared a commonality with "Full House": they were consistently mediocre shows that only managed to stay on the air so many seasons because '80s-era TV sucked so badly, especially in contrast to the myriad brilliant sitcoms from the '70s (e.g. "Maude" - the first, and still one of the only, network show to depict a woman having a voluntary abortion, "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," "All in the Family," and of course "Soap," the first show to have an openly gay regular character who wasn't depicted as "campy" or some sort of pervert).

I get that nostalgia twists one's memories, but "Full House" wasn't even in the same ballpark as the ACTUAL excellence in '90s-era sitcoms (e.g. "Frasier" along with the tail end of "Cheers," plus "Seinfeld" & "Friends," etc.). If anything it was the epitome of "meh."

The other Danny Tanner at R52 was John Posey, Tyler Posey’s father. If he had not been fired from Full House, maybe Tyler Posey would not had turned out that fucked up. Maybe he would have gone down a more wholesome Full House road.

Get r325 a sense of humor infusion — STAT!

[quote]I love how people try to throw the Olson Twins into anything related to Full House. The Olson Twins were just babies and hated doing that show.

They may have hated it, but it's the ONLY reason both managed to become insanely rich from launching various business ventures & clothing enterprises – decades before that became the norm among so many TV personalities, Jaclyn Smith & Martha Stewart excepted – and did *extremely* well in terms of their love lives, considering Mary-Kate married one of the most prominent (and wealthy) men in France.

COVID....wait and see.

FH was a cheesy kid-com. It was my favorite show at the time. I dreamed of being a Tanner kid (like somebody mentioned above). I managed to stick through 6 episodes of Fuller House before I bailed.

Shows like FH had their place. Like Family Matters, it was iconic to a certain demographic.

[quote]If he had not been fired from Full House, maybe Tyler Posey would not had turned out that fucked up. Maybe he would have gone down a more wholesome Full House road.

He was the lead star on a long-running MTV show. I wouldn't call that "fucked up": the only reason he's fared poorly since then is because he can't act worth a fuck. (And no, getting a bunch of tattoos & launching a PG-13 OnlyFans channel doesn't count as fucked up, either.)

Sending this out to my dear friend Bob who passed away on the Road tonight:

On a long and lonesome highway, East of Omaha

You can listen to the engine, Moanin' out his one note song

You can think about the woman, Or the girl you knew the night before

But your thoughts will soon be wandering...the way they always do

When you're ridin' sixteen hours, and there's nothin' much to do... And you don't feel much like ridin'...you just wish the trip was through

See here I am, On the road again

There I am, Up on the stage

Here I go, Playin' star again

There I go, Turn the page

Can we have an update, Bob?

R359 literally no one dies within the space of 12 hours from Covid, at least if they were perfectly healthy before that point.

The reactions remind me a lot of when John Ritter died, maybe not quite (can you imagine if Ritter had died in the age of social media), but very emotional, people who felt like they grew up with him. On the spectrum of “big deal deaths” maybe somewhere between Ritter and Alan Thicke. (And all very sudden/unexpected)

Really r364? LITERALLY?

[quote]showbiz hotel room deaths tend to be more of a drug issue

True, but the only reason he was staying at home was because he had a standup gig the night before. He certainly didn't have a months-long speedball bender a la John Belushi or something.

R337 The Olsen twins released a statement:

"Bob was the most loving, compassionate and generous man. We are deeply saddened that he is no longer with us but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as gracefully as he always has. We are thinking of his daughters, wife and family and are sending our condolences."

[quote[Really R364? LITERALLY?

Cunt, please – and yes, literally. That was an extremely rare anomaly, plus you must've missed the part about her having severe symptoms long before she got around to being tested.

He sounds drunk in his recent interviews. Booze and prescription drugs (e.g. sleeping pills) can have deadly consequences. In all honesty though, he looked for 65!

[quote[The news keeps saying no sign of drug use. If there were prescription drugs around could the police reveal that? What about privacy laws? Wouldn't the preclude them from commenting on a medical issue like that?

If he was routinely consuming large quantities of drugs, that'd mean he didn't get the scrips for them from his doctor. HIPAA provides no protection for people who abuse prescription drugs that weren't specifically prescribed.

*he looked good I should say!

[quote] Cunt, please – and yes, literally. That was an extremely rare anomaly, plus you must've missed the part about her having severe symptoms long before she got around to being tested.

Cunt you don’t know how Saget was feeling, and the Salvadoran woman wasn’t severely ill, just feeling under the weather. Just shut up and take the L, or go back to LSA.

Oohhh... Thank goodness R368!

[quote]"Bob was the most loving, compassionate and generous man. We are deeply saddened that he is no longer with us but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as gracefully as he always has. We are thinking of his daughters, wife and family and are sending our condolences."

Dammit, they stole Susan Dey's statement word-for-word!

Ok everyone, back to the drawing board, this is going to be a late night...Miss Dey won't condole unless we get this exactly right...

Miss Dey is still working on her comments for the other dead celebrities this week...

r369 There are a number of prescription & over the counter medications and even some supplements (let alone other substances) that can 'suppress' the symptoms allowing it to build up into a sudden crisis or death. It's something which can make even the flu deadly in healthy people.

Miss Dey is going to have a very busy 2022.

Can anyone here explain what BS meant in the BJ Novak episode of his podcast when he mentioned being able to talk until he couldn’t anymore? Was he referring for the need to have vocal rest for his upcoming performances or was he suffering from a medical issue that compromised his speech?

R356,Tyler Posey didn’t come from a broken family, I believe his parents stayed married till his mom died in 2014 which f him up it was also the same year he broke up with his fiancée of 10 years.

Holy fuck, what a bunch of Marys on this thread.

I grew up in the 90s. I watched Full House.

Sad for his family and friends. For me...meh.

He was tall and lanky back in they day and i found him to be handsome with his long nose and soothing deep voice.

Am I the only one who hardly recognizes him in these recent pictures? He looks really moon-faced, and that kind of thing is often a side effect of prescription medicine.

[quote] or formerly lived in the ghetto before moving into a deeeee-luxe apartment in the sky

If you're referring to the Jeffersons, weren't they next-door neighbors to the Bunkers before moving to their deluxe penthouse apartment?

That video is awesome, R281. I watched it with the sound off and I was laughing my head off.

R325 did you ever consider charging MAGAts rent for all the time they spend living in your head rent free?

[quote]did you ever consider charging MAGAts rent for all the time they spend living in your head rent free?

Wow, no one has ever used this line on DL before.

R333 Fuck off. Unless you're a trained medical doctor, you have no fucking way of knowing who is "mentally ill" based on one stupid anecdote. Get your head outta yo ass, muthafucka.

R388 when MAGAts are brought up on a thread about Bob Saget's death ...

Medical doctors are rarely used to diagnose mental illness these days. Lots of other disciplines and credentials are more involved than even psychiatrists.

R391 Psychiatrists are medical doctors, you stupid cunt fuck.

Glad you finally figured that out, retard. Lol & smfh. They are not the only ones who diagnose (by a long shot). Reading comprehension is usually completed by the third grade. How many times did you take the GED? Now DIAGF, rancid and retarded cunt.

Ativan stat, IM, for R392

R393 is Jabba. Easy to recognize her psychotic and nonsensical blathering. We all know who you are by now, Jabba.

R394 is Jabba. We know you have about thirty sock puppet accounts. You are the only one who is obsessed or cares about your talentless cuntbag, Janet. You inject your psychotic nonsense into numerous threads and all of them sound exactly the same. You cannot hide your psychotic garbage self.

Why did every thread on DL have to turn into a pissing war about Janet Jackson?

R397 Because Jabba injects her psychotic sock puppets into most threads. That's why, fucktard.

R387-R398 is why the DL sucks these days. So much rage over trivial shit.

So does it look huge?

[quote]showbiz hotel room deaths tend to be more of a drug issue

I agree but the cops went out of their way to say there was no evidence of drug use involved, so I think they must have been pretty certain that wasn't the cause of death. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if it was multiple drug toxicity or something along those lines, though you can't rule out cardiovascular issues or some kind of blood clot aftereffect of COVID.

R399 Rage has nothing to do with it, repulsive cunt. When a psychopath like Jabba has to inject her crap into every thread, she has to be called out on it EVERY fucking time.

[quote]Am I the only one who hardly recognizes him in these recent pictures?

No, and in fact I thought at first one of the recent pics of him was an old photo of that singing political guy Mark Russell!

What does the tweet at r400 even mean?

Crispy means hip, fashionable, stylish, r404. "His outfits were stylish as fuck."

Is Full House the longest running sitcom (8 years) to never receive ONE single Emmy nomination?

I read it was, even Married With Children got a few technical Emmy nods

The industry hated this crappy show

R404, clicked it and have a close look.

Dizzy kaweens trying to pin some psychotic shit on me when I all I did was educate some BPD on mental health terms she was misusing? Don’t give up your day jobs, gurrls. I don’t give two fucks in a dead cat’s ass about Miss Jackson, and I have never heard of the Jabba troll you speak of. I have been victimized by sock puppets myself, and had two threads shut down by Muriel when I asked why they were allowed to flourish here. I will stand up for myself when a bitch comes for me though. Think what you like. R392 is still retarded.

R408 Fuck off, Jabba. Every psychotic word you utter reveals you to be the psychotic turd on a stick Janbot.

At 65, Bob was young enough to be Nancy Pelosi's son....Think about that...

R410 Thankfully within the next twenty years, most of the disgusting Boomers will be dead or even more senile than they already are. I so look forward to that day. I have been waiting for the day when the mass die off happens. Hopefully Saget is the beginning.

R409 is Dejure or one his 50 sock puppets. Don’t you have a White adjacent thread to start, cunt? It’s been almost two weeks! Scurry along now, like the disease ridden rodent you are.

Take your Fentanyl, R411, join the mass die off your twinky compatriots.

*mass die off of your twinky compatriots* Or just DIAGF…

R412 Fuck off, Jabba. You stick out like a black at a KKK rally, cunt.

This whole thread is entirely Jabba and her 50 sock puppet accounts. Nice try, cunt. We see you.

Dejure^

Attack of the sock puppets! They are on display.

Dejure/DeFacto=Bobby Soave

And we see YOU, Dejure, and those two sock puppets you brought along for company.

R420 Sure, Jabba. Sure.

Block R420 and half the thread disappears. Time to block another of Jabba's sock puppets.

So what kind of homosex was had among the cast of Full House?

Block Dejure and half the thread disappears! Lol…one of her sock puppets too. Bliss…

The Olsen twins have no obligation to comment publicly. It is pretty pathetic of grown adults to get offended by this and also the fact they didn't return to Full House. First, they can't act and are very robotic and expressionless. They are filthy rich, so don't need to act anyway. Their parents forced them into acting. They were overworked since they were infants. And while it's true they would not be where they were without Full House, they came from a well-to-do family that lived in Sherman Oaks and probably would have been happier living a rich California childhood without the stress of fame.

They did remain on good terms with Bob as opposed to the rest of cast (and Hollywood) who they cut off. They are definitely grieving.

[quote] I loved those cheesy shows as a kid. But, as an adult they aren't watchable. Step by Step's only redeeming factor was that it wasn't frequently aired in syndication like Full House was.

For me. Sasha Mitchell and Patrick Duffy in Step by Step made it watchable. John Stamos and Scott Weinger in Full House. Laura's boys-of-the-week and shirtless Jaleel White in Family Matters. None of these shows were well-written and revisiting them as an adult they are embarrassing.

Boy Meets World and Sabrina aged so much better and also had hot guys.

Interesting how gen z who wasn’t even born when Full House was on air are accusing him of SA to the Olsen Twins…

The "have/has_____(fill in the blank) commented yet? "are tongue in cheek comments not to be takens so seriously R425. They are sort of a running joke on here.

*taken^^

Our holes have never felt emptier!

I would watch FUll House web Cosby any day. It at least had some funny moments on occasion which Cosby never did .

KImmy gibler could be hilarious at times.

*over

I agree that Cosby was the much better show, but while I was growing up, Full House used to be shown in the afternoon, right after school let out. My guess is that wasn’t just in my area and it explains why a slice of the population is so familiar with it as compared to the other mediocre sitcoms of the day.

I remember The Brady Bunch being a little cheesy and corny when it originally ran in the 70s. Now it has a good following. Full House reminds me of that.

“Full House” was a show for three-year-olds. It was no different than Barney.

[quote] Interesting how gen z who wasn’t even born when Full House was on air are accusing him of SA to the Olsen Twins…

SA? Speak English, tard.

R311, Reginald and Sherri Shepherd are the same person.

[quote] Here's the most recent Bob Saget podcast that he did 6 days ago where he's slurring his words

Where?

I wonder what the little gay boy who guest starred on the show a lot thinks about all of this?

I was a young teen when the show was on and grew up watching shows like Cosby, Full House, Family Matters and Mr. Brelvedere so this one really stings because he was the quintessential all American dad. My family was odd and not well off so whenever I watched I wished for a family like the one on Full House with a good father who lived in a nice house on a hill, a good job and cool car.

I never said the Cosby Show wasn't important, I did say some of us didn't grow up with it as our main form of entertainment. The last thing I remember about that show was when Raven-Symoné was on it and Cousin Pam came to live with them and I think I only remember that from reruns.

[quote]If anything it's a pity that the show's legacy has been entirely destroyed – it quite literally no longer exists on the airwaves – by Cosby's serial rape horrors.

Sorry to tell you this since it wasn't clear the first time, but instead of accepting that people were born after you and the idea that they may have seen the world differently because the world was quite honestly different when they were growing up, you're arguing that these shows were more important.

I didn't say they weren't.

I said that Full House, as people keep saying on here, held a significant place in the mental lexicons of a group of people that grew up at a certain time in history and that's why "Danny Tanner" was so important to them. Not that the show was good or that he was the greatest character ever created or that the show was historically impactful in the scheme of things but to this group, the show was ever present. You telling people how they should "FEEL" is so nonsensical. There's a place and time for facts and one for feelings.

Danny Tanner? I don't know him...

Who’s next?

This hits harder than Betty White. 😢

^Turn in your gay card

You know I think this death stings more because it was so unexpected, everyone knew it was just a matter of time for Betty due to her age but Bob was out of the blue.

What are Q adults?

Yes, there can be a genetic component to aneurysms. I would not be surprised if that is the cause of his death.

Is Mr. Feeny ok????

Bob missed his checkout time so security went to room to check on him . His bags were packed by the door when they found him dead .

[quote] I think it's kind of glamorous to die in a Ritz-Carlton.

Fucking right it is!

I’d rather die at the Four Seasons but whatever!

Four Seasons Landscaping?

It ended my career at any rate...

This guy gets two threads, one of them almost full! I got just the one thread with less than two dozen replies.

All I feel awful for Candace Cameron Bure. She was very close to Bob and he adored her husband Val.

He looks like he was retaining water so I’m guessing heart.

Bob seemed chill. He remained on good terms with most of the Full House cast. Candace (annoying fundie grifter), Jodie (reformed crackhead), MK and Ashley (anorexic druggies) and Lori (bribery and fraudster) all turned out to be hot messes. But Bob didn't seem to judge.

Candace is so fake to me. She likely praying that Jewish atheist smut-mongerer Bob Saget will repent and go to heaven.

He had resting smiley face. I imagine that opened many more doors compared to RBF. RIP Bob.

I never would have guessed Bob had the DL support he does. He must have really been beloved given how non-existent our bitchery is right now. RIP indeed.

Heart attack. Widow maker.

CNN just alerted that autopsy found no signs of foul play or drug use. Cause of death still pending.

This story is sweet, but also kind of embarrassing (for the then-kid).

And I'm surprised that there was a no-kids policy for the studio audience. Adults wanted to sit through it alone??

[quote]I remember The Brady Bunch being a little cheesy and corny when it originally ran in the 70s.

A LITTLE cheesy and corny?

R465, can’t find that info anywhere liar!

I was just looking up “Saget cause of death” also. The anti-vaxer bullshit is nuts.

howl, R389 sho' told me. "Get your head outta yo ass, muthafucka." What's a muthafucka? I only speak English and German.

A muthafucka is a person who fucka their mutha.

I presume he was just lounging around all day, as he had nothing to do, and decided to jerk off. The climax killed him.

My apologies

[quote] Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who split the role of youngest daughter Michelle Tanner in the original show, said in a statement sent to THR: “Bob was the most loving, compassionate and generous man. We are deeply saddened that he is no longer with us but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as gracefully as he always has. We are thinking of his daughters, wife and family and are sending our condolences.”

They said something.

[quote]but know that he will continue to be by our side to guide us as gracefully as he always has.

💀👻

R468 no signs of drug use means no paraphernalia found or anything that would indicate drug use like white powder around the nose area or needle marks . . .

People at the last show and friends reporting he joked about having COVID over the holidays so it wasnt the shot. Perhaps vascular issues from the illness. His father died of congestive heart failure in 2007 so maybe genetic too.

Lastly, maybe he pulled a Heath Ledger and took cold medicine with some prescription drugs. We will have to wait and see.

DL FAVE Tommy Diddario has commented on Candace Cameron Bure's instagram post...

From the other thread, an AMA with a writer from Full House, and other sitcoms of that era.

He hasn't seen Fuller House but: [quote]Haven't seen it, but I'm sure kids love it and it makes adults want to gouge out their eyes.

R463 I think it shows that DL demographics run a lot younger than we think!

It’s been a hard week. Betty White was our grandma. Danny Tanner was our dad growing up.

R481 MARY!!!!!!!!!!!

OMFG, R481. I hope you're trolling.

I think Alan Thicke as Jason Weaver was more what I wanted as a dad. He was the white Cliff Huxtable but less corny and self-righteous. Danny Tanner (well more Bob) would more be my ideal best friend and fuck buddy because his raunchy sense of humor.

I wasn't super close with my dad as a kid (he was the large, silent type who went to work) but I have to wonder what kind of shit fathers some of you MARYs had if the guy in the TV was "your dad"

I’m so tired of hearing about this.

[quote] People at the last show and friends reporting he joked about having COVID over the holidays so it wasn't the shot.

You have absolutely zero info that it was or wasn't the shot... and neither do I. I do know that the COVID "symptoms" very coincidentally line up/mirror reported jab reactions (VAERS). I find the timing suspect.

Bob Saget is on Beat Bobby Flay right now. From 2020… he looks good.

[quote] I have to wonder what kind of shit fathers some of you MARYs had if the guy in the TV was "your dad"

He was all of our dads. Just like how June Cleaver and Jan Brady was all of your moms for you eldergays.

Bob is not America's dad. He's more like the cool Jewish uncle who loved to tell dirty jokes and then get explained why not to say that around the dinner table. Bill Cosby was never America's Dad either, he was just a respectable, uptight yet goofy "magical Negro" character that conservative white Americans embraced. Bernie Mac and Uncle Phil were much cooler dads.

R489 Mary, I'm a year younger than the Olsen twins. I just understood that TV wasn't real.

r474

Would it have killed Mary Kate or Ashley Olsen to have made a statement each?

[quote] He's more like the cool Jewish uncle who loved to tell dirty jokes and then get explained why not to say that around the dinner table.

Danny Tanner never told dirty jokes. You’re confused.

[quote]CNN just alerted that autopsy found no signs of foul play or drug use. Cause of death still pending.

Well he was old but I say drugs, like Prince's AIDS, they covered it up

Growing up as a poor black kid in the 90s, whenever I watched Full House, I often wished I had a father like Danny Tanner and lived in a beautiful house in San Francisco. The show and Bob Saget were part of our childhood to many of us millennials. His death does hit us hard. And that's not to mention many of us also watched America's Funniest Home Videos.

Sure, the show is cheesy as fuck when watching it now as an adult, but there's a reason why it lasted for eight seasons. It presented the American family as sweet and warm as apple pie, and while it's certainly a fantasy, many of us 90s kids wished we had a family similar to that on Full House.

Not just 90s kids but 80s kids too. 90s kids probably caught it in syndication, not live.

I love this blog. Guy rips apart every single episode of Full House

Not every American is white and middle-class. And certainly most parents would not smile while their child talks back and acts like a brat nor would an attractive, educated woman marry a stupid fat slob who is incompetent at running a home. Sitcoms are not reality. I would say something like Everybody Hates Chris, Married with Children, Malcolm in the Middle, Grounded for Life, Family Maters and Roseanne felt closer to working and middle-class parenting though.

Growing Pains, The Cosby Show and Full House reflected Reagan era values of aspiration. They were more morality plays with educated, socially liberal (for the time) parents who happened to have well-behaved children who's rebellion is often blown out of proportion and the problem is solved by the end of the episode. The youngest child is always a cutesy little brat who is not funny and you want to slap them. Yeah, definitely a fantasy.

My step-dad was basically Archie Bunker.

Now I understand.

Did some amateur comic just hand Norm MacDonald those jokes on the sidewalk before he came in? That was embarrassing.

[quote] He had gained weight over years so that might be a contributing factor to his health.

Yeah, he'd probably gained 25 lbs. since his Full House days. 25 extra pounds. on a rather thin man does not cause heart disease.

betty white had a stroke 6 days before dying

Even though I watched Full House as a kid. I never envied them. I have sisters and a big family and they can be annoying and the only thing I envied was getting near sexy Uncle Jesse. I'm black but grew up in a rural town and every white family I encountered was far more like The Connors and Bundys than like the Tanners or Bradys. Very few Black people were like The Huxtables either but many were like The Bankses from Fresh Prince (obviously not as rich), The Winslows from Family Matters and The Evans from Good Times.

I really envied Will from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air because he was this kid from the hood who got to live with his rich uncle and aunt who not only were classy but also taught him important values and he grew from a selfish jerk to a caring, dependable man. In general, it was a pretty well-written show and ended at the right time too. Also he had confidence and a killer body and looks which I wanted too.

R487 - he said was getting over a covid infection, not that he had post vaccination symptoms. And generally you dont get the vaccine during an active infection either. You also have fewer chances of adverse events with a booster if it didnt bother you the first two times. Some boosters are also lower dosage (like Moderna).

Bob was our lover and Betty our beard.

His recent pics looked awful. Bloated and extremely healthy. No doubt organ failure was unavoidable.

[quote]OMFG, [R481]. I hope you're trolling.

Wait til she finds out she's not in the will.

R487 = Joe Rogan, or some other anti-vaxxer weirdo

Bob Saget admitting to being vaccinated and receiving a booster shot 3 weeks ago.

He died on his sister's (Gay Saget) birthday.

So Bob died past check out time. Will they charge his card for another night? Probably. Just a matter of time before the creepy freaks start requesting the room Bob Saget died in.

Norm’s jokes sounded old school and joke writing 101.

[quote] The Winslows from Family Matters

Another really nice dad. And Mr. Cooper from Hangin’ with Mr. Cooper. And Mr. Feeny. Not to mention Jackée on Sister, Sister.

Mr. Cooper and Mr. Feeny were not dads.

R514 Maybe father figures, then.

Mr. Feeny was a very good character. Now people are discussing how important is it for young boys to have male teachers they can look up to.

The Winslows felt more real to me than The Huxtables. Carl was cool. Even after all the times Steve pissed him off, he was still willing to give him a place to stay. Harriet was that no-nonsense mom but less stuck-up than Claire. They also addressed real racial issues. Carl was a cop and made a point to call out racism in the police field. Also, despite the wholesome image, Family Matters would remind you it was still Chicago with that school shooting episode.

Yes, Family Matters rocked. Although I always felt like maybe Carl should have told Urkel off a little for making the daughter annoyed/uncomfortable.

Yeah, Steve was annoying at times. I never liked the Steve-Laura endgame thing. He was a creepy stalker towards her. Laura had every right to reject him and tell him to go fuck himself. Myra was a better match for Steve (and imo way more hotter than Laura). Everyone who watched that show seems to agree Steve was an idiot for not appreciating Myra. I loved when they had Jaleel White do drag as Myrtle Mae Urkel and her thirst over Eddie. They should not have written out Aunt Rachel, loved her. It made no sense to keep Richie on the show without his mother.

Congrats to his wifes jackpot....

Who cares if Cobsy was groundbreaking compared to Full House? Even as a nine-year-old I found Cliff and Claire Huxtable pompous and up their own asses. The smugness from Bill Cosby and Phylicia Rashad oozed off the screen, which was only reaffirmed when both tried to minimize his crimes. Saget made Danny Tanner likable and approachable. I would rather go to Danny than Cliff. And it's even creepier now knowing that Cliff was a gynaecologist on the show. Ugh. Cliff and Claire always knew better than their kids - who they often mocked thorughout the show. I hated them and their uppity behaviour. I liked Danny and Jesse and even Joey when he wasn't being obnoxious. I'd rather grow up in the motherless Full House than live with Cunt Claire telling Rudy what dress to wear.

Full House may have been "mediocre" or "meh" but it is a beloved show whether you like it or not. It's a show that glows with nostalgia. So much that Fuller House was a hit for a number of seasons. You can't deny its popularity - or its impact.

[quote] Cliff and Claire always knew better than their kids - who they often mocked thorughout the show.

I was shocked at how they treated their kids. Cliff always was counting the days until they left the house and was out of his hair. I thought parents were supposed to love their kids and not want them to leave, not be salivating at kicking them out.

His face had become really fat. I wonder if he was retaining water due to heart problems. But then why go on a demanding tour.

A Different World was better than The Cosby Show. It wasn't condescending and show the rich culture of HBCUs and many Black people with differing backgrounds and beliefs. It helped Debbie Allen took over. The first season which Cosby had control over was so bad it almost got the show cancelled with Lisa Bonet's non-acting self and miscast Marisa Tomei as the white best friend.

Attention Whore Andy Cohen has tweeted. So the news has reached the D-List.

I really loved Family Matters, they were a great tv family and the dad was a great role model.

He never raped me.

I respect that.

R521, neither instance is the correct response; for the majority of parents, their feelings are in the middle of those two extremes.

It is possible to love your kids very much and also look forward to having your house to yourself again; it's also possible to be an awful human being who never wants your kid to 'leave' you. Real life is more complicated than sitcoms.

[quote] Norm’s jokes sounded old school and joke writing 101.

That was the point. Norm took those jokes from an old 40s joke book.

He told Bob he couldn't be mean to him, and just bombed on purpose with the lame jokes. And then told him "I love you" at the end.

All these “he was my Dad” MARYS! are pathetic. I was a child when Full House was on the air, in a poor and dysfunctional house hold, and I never saw him as “my dad”. I knew even then that even as far as sitcoms went, the show was lame and cheesy and totally unlike real life.

R529 But YOU are not EVERYONE.

I remember when I used to watch Full House with my brother every night. There was a 2-part episode where Michelle falls off a horse and has to be taken to the hospital, and little psychopath me was hoping that episode 2 would begin with the news of her death. Of course I knew it wouldn't happen, but I still hoped.

I never thought of Danny Tanner as a father figure, though. I mostly just watched because I liked Kimmy Gibbler.

Oooh, smell the martyr at r529. So strong!!!!

I was molested.

At least he won't be playing Gene Kelly.

R529, I agree. Susan Dey was my generation's Olson twins so all I can say is

Has guest star Stacey Q commented yet???

The Olsen twins were like the ideal little twin sisters I was unjustly deprived of in real life.

If only there was something you could do so they stayed that way forever....

Michelle was annoying as fuck and spoiled. In real life, DJ and Stephanie would have slapped the shit of her many times like actual sisters do.

R539, you got it, dude!

Jodie Sweetin's Instagram tribute was heartfelt. She even threw in a "How rude!"

I thought the show was terribly cheesy, but watched it all the time nevertheless. Maybe because Uncle Jesse was hot as hell. And we were starved for entertainment choices in the pre-internet days, I guess.

R521, Cliff and Claire were generally good parents. They both wanted the kids out and were okay with them returning when they needed to like they nearly all did at some point. I only had a problem with the idea that they were NEVER wrong. Even once. That's just not how it works. The kids also never got away with a single thing. On Full House on the other hand, the kids got away with things occasionally and Danny openly admitted he was wrong on a few occasions.

[quote]Growing Pains, The Cosby Show and Full House reflected Reagan era values of aspiration.

Nah, Full House had much more in common with other 90s sitcoms than The Cosby Show or Growing Pains did. It wasn't meant to be realistic in the least. It rarely ever "got real." TGIF was programming for kids who had to stay at home on Friday nights because they were too young to go out with their friends and their parents.

It was "bridge" between Perfect Strangers (which wasn't that plausible) which lead to programming like Family Matters, Step by Step, Sister Sister and Dinosaurs. It all ended with Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Boy Meets World and Hangin' With Mr. Cooper were (if you could call it that) the most serious. The kids on TGIF shows were not as perfect, nor were they supposed to be, as the ones on Growing Pains, the Cosby Show or any 80s show.

Full House was a place where "The door is always open!" because their world was so perfect they never had to lock the front door and only their friends or people that would one day be their friends walked in. People enjoyed that.

Fuller House lasted for 5 seasons on Netflix of all platforms.

r530 there's a good chance abortions were legal when you were born, so what went wrong?

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

I watched Full House like every other millennial, but it's not a show that I carried into adulthood. It was diabetes as television. It was certainly no Boy Meets World.

I'm sad for his family and some of the stories people have shared make it seem like he was a really great guy but...shrug.

I loved TGIF and how the casts all took turns hosting it. But it was confusing because they’re in character yet watching their own show. “Stay tuned to watch Full House next where DJ shoplifts. Why did you do that, Deej?” “I don’t know, we’ll have to watch to find out. Pass the popcorn, Uncle Jesse.”

I watched the pilot of the reboot out of morbid curiosity. It was blech and Saget looked like he just wanted to cash his check. Can't say I blame him.

It was fun seeing Stamos and the others try to pressure the Olsens (even Elizabeth) into doing the show. I'm sure there was plenty of jealousy when the twins took over the show and had an empire while Jodie fell into meth and Candace got murdered by Kevin Arnold in a lifetime movie.

R547 I was the king of TGIF!!!

TGIF was Full House, Step by Step, Family Matters, Perfect Strangers.

Paparazzi are camped outside his house taking pictures of family and friends. Gross.

R550, The first TGIF started in 1989 and ended in 2000. It didn't keep the same line up. Shows came and went like Dinosaurs. There were a few short lived ones like The Hugleys, Just the 10 of Us, Odd Man Out and This is Where I Live. The Hugleys and Sabrina jumped over to UPN.

Speaking of that R547, here's Larry and Balki hosting.

R545 = In the video that male host (in the blue suit) was hot as fuck. Anyone know who he is?...I looked up Studio 10 but he wasn't who they had listed as host.

Us boomers had our TV "dads" and "families" growing up. It filled a fantasy of how we wished our families were like, when in reality...it wasn't so great. I get that some younger people were more affected by Saget's death than others.

[quote]The first TGIF started in 1989 and ended in 2000. It didn't keep the same line up. Shows came and went like Dinosaurs. There were a few short lived ones like The Hugleys, Just the 10 of Us, Odd Man Out and This is Where I Live. The Hugleys and Sabrina jumped over to UPN.

lol I remember some of short lived shows. Even the Olsen twins had a short lived show called Two of a Kind in the late 90s on TGIF. It only lasted one season.

The wikipedia article on TGIF lists the lineups for the seasons of TGIF and I had forgotten that Sister, Sister had started on TGIF/ABC before it was on the WB.

R425 MK and Ashley did not come from a wealthy family... their family became wealthy when they became successful. Their dad filed for bankruptcy not too long ago too. His wife #2 is a total nutter.

And yes, they were close to Bob and Bob was the only FH castmember they kept in touch with, in large part because MK&A are good friends with a couple of Bob's daughters and basically grew up with them.

Dad's second wife (they divorced). She's a Trumptard now.

I know some people who grew up with them, but haven't asked questions because that'd be weird. I know Lizzie is still very close with her GBF growing up. They're kind of like that disgusting reality family, all the daughters are rich and successful and the one son exists.

There was definitely some jealousy when the show was over their careers were taking off and Jodie and Candace were over. I'd love to know what those two say in private.

CRINGE.

Two of a Kind was the only decent Olsen twin project. It had some type of humor compared to their hundreds of formulaic direct to video movies. Their last sitcom, So Little Time was a generic teen sitcom with very lame jokes but the boys of the week were cute (as were the boys in their later teen oriented movies).

To Grandmother’s House We Go wasn’t too bad!

"Yeah, she's busy with Marvel and acclaimed indie films. Do not call me again"

The thing I liked about the Huxtables was that they told their kids what was and wasn’t acceptable, enforced those rules with discipline, but still gave the kids a lot of freedom and space. They were the opposite of the helicopter parent approach. But if the kids fucked up there was no arguing their way out of punishment, as it should be.

R559 I liked their "travel" movies and I read somewhere that they had final approval on every guy cast as their love interest. They had good taste.

Lizzie's had a glowup

Candace? Jodie? Never heard of em.

Their brother looks a lot like them too. I figure the twins would have been taller without all that psychological stress of working nonstop and later eating disorders and drug addiction.

Candace is a fundie homophobe, I wouldn't be friends with her, either

The older they got the more obvious the twins didn't want to act. They were so wooden and their acting was robotic. They were windup dolls putting on the cutesy act even as teens. They just did all those movies for the money likely pressured by their parents. Once they hit 18, they got to cash that money and dipped out of acting to go to school. They did some acting projects once and off but both eventually walked away to focus on their fashion brand. New York Minute flopping also certainly proved they could never be taken seriously as Hollywood actresses. They see definitely very business savvy thanks to their father being a businessman who also wisely invested their earnings rather than steal it.

If you were a kid, you couldn't escape the Olsen Empire from when Full House ended until they retired.

Candace and Jodie must've looooooved that.

The Olsens were never that cute either. So many other child stars were much more adorable than them. Also it is really disturbing how in America everything is so commercial to the point two little girls become this walking capitalist brand. They were put on display and used to sell all this crap to make corporations rich. Nobody questioned this commercial exploitation? Granted they are rich as hell for it but it was child labor at the end of the day and the parents should be ashamed. Late stage capitalism at it's finest.

[quote] Lizzie's had a glowup

What do you mean? That picture was taken in 2016 after she was already Scarlet Witch.

Is the brother a half-brother? The step mom kept referring to him as his baby grown up.

R570 by their 18th birthday, they'd earned enough money to never have to work again. I'd trade my run of the mill childhood for that in a heartbeat.

R572 they have Lizzie and the brother as full siblings. The dad had a daughter and son with Wacky Wife #2. Stepmom was cute before she became a back alley mannequin.

R571 please be joking.

R573 They came from an upper middle class family living in Sherman Oaks. They didn't need to be exploited and working like adults for greedy corporations. You'd trade your mental health, sobriety and physical attractiveness for that much wealth? They seem mentally disturbed, empty inside, doped up and aged horribly. If you're rich already and grow up in California you'd be happy just enough without all that excess wealth. Being extremely wealthy is a bigger burden than people think.

R574 to quote one of their movies...in a New York Minute. They shun the press but seem fine when they emerge every now and then. They have lives, a career, and avoid the spotlight. I'd take it.

[quote]Candace is a fundie homophobe, I wouldn't be friends with her, either.

Candace is the queen of Hallmark Channel Christmas movies. She seems to be in every other one.

[quote]Candace is a fundie homophobe, I wouldn't be friends with her, either

She's a fundie but she's one of those homophobes that wants it both ways. She doesn't have a problem with gay people or she would have never allowed gay content on Fuller House. As for that "The View" Pintaro appearance, she and Raven-Symoné were clearly reading whatever the show told them to say to cover the show's ass. She did, however, support that bakery's "right" to refuse to make a cake for a gay couple. She's definitely not Kirk.

You can't go, "I love gay people! I have gay friends!" then go, "But I support anyone's right to hate you."

[quote]No different than how they were cyberbullied about declining Fuller House.

It was a mess. The twins claimed, at one point, they were never asked to do the show. And technically (initially) they weren't, by anyone actually involved with the show.

John Stamos, who was one of the driving forces behind it returning, at first, flat out said he never bothered to ask them directly. He went through their people. Rather, at no point, early on did he call them up and talk to them or pay them a visit to ask them.

Eventually he talked to Mary-Kate and she was possibly game to do it but only if Ashley wanted to do it. So Mary-Kate told him to talk to Ashley and he didn't.

I don't blame them for not even doing a cameo.

It also says a lot that Bob Saget, who they actually had a relationship with beyond the show, dared never bother the girls about it.

TV Guide, 1993

They have no concept of how famous they are or of how much money they've made. Their allowances range from $1 to $5 per week, depending on how well they do their chores. Still, Dave Olsen knows it's only a matter of time before they come to him with the big question. A few weeks ago, he tought that moment had arrived.

"Mary-Kate asked me if she had more money than I do," he said, recalling how his mind spun at the prospect of explaining to a 7-year-old about trust funds and development deals and how she was, in fact, much richer than her daddy ever would be. "And then I realized she was talking about the $45 in her piggy bank." But someday, Olsen knows, the question will be about more than the contents of a piggy bank. He has done his best to protect as much of the twins' money as he can, putting into trust funds (to be held until their 18th birthday) considerably more than the 25 percent required under California's Coogan Law, the satute enacted in 1939 after it was discovered that the parents of child star Jackie Coogan had stolen and squandered more than $4 million of his earnings.

The Olsens, according to attorney Thorne, have gone to extraordinary lengths to protect the twins' income and avoid even the appearance of wrongdoing. Besides the trust funds, they have also arranged for the hiring of outside attorneys who answer only to the girls' estate, not to the parents. They also hired professional business managers, nannies and welfare workers for the kids. Some of the most publicized abuses of childstar assets -case including Patty Duke, Jay North (who starred in Dennis the Menace on TV), and Gary Coleman- stemmed from parents who also acted as their children's managers and/or agents, paying themselves exorbitant fees and leaving little behind for the children.

I'm down an Olsen hole.

[quote]Some people at work have been envious too, according to more than one person close to the Full House cast. Indeed, three of the Olsens’ former costars — John Stamos, Candace Cameron, and Jodi Sweetin — declined to comment for this article. ”There’s a little jealousy,” admits Judy Savage, Sweetin’s agent. ”It’s like, why did they get to have all the success?”

and that is why Bob is the only one of the cast they are close with which makes those lies about him and the twins even more disgusting.

No #metoo stories about him?

Bob was a very likable guy who helped others

The Olsen twins were mocked by many in the 90s and 2000s. A lot of off-color jokes about their saccharine movies and overexposure and later jokes made about their eating disorders and appearances. There was this creepy sexualization of them in their teen years like the countdown clock. We live in a more politically correct era now. John Stamos came across as a tool for pressuring the twins to return to Full House. And I imagine they do truly see Bob Saget as a father figure because they kept in contact with him over the years.

The Olsen brother is ugly and he's dating a girl who looks like a less skinny version of Mary-Kate

The brother looks exactly like if the Olsen Twins was trans and took male hormones.

The Olsen dad was a tyrant

R586 how do you know?

R578, that’s quite impressive if true.

R588 they certainly handed themselves better than Dina and Michael

R589, seriously. If you're going to shove your kids into the spotlight then the least you can do is make sure they know you've kept your hands off of the money they've made.

Years ago, basically saying he didn't see the point of the reboot and to leave the twins alone. He gave no fucks for nostalgia porn.

Ok, this has run its course. He’s no Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett-Majors, Marilyn Monroe, James Dean or even a John Ritter.

Moving on….

Bob Saget was a nobody yet somehow filled up a thread. I never managed to read even one thread about Betty White dying.

[quote]Bob Saget was a nobody yet somehow filled up a thread.

If he were really a nobody then he wouldn't have filled up the thread.

Not like anyone has much to say about you, R593.

This site is exhausting. Nobody is arguing Full House is high art and nobody said Bob Saget was this great genius. The point is he was good guy who was in a TV show that was part of many peoples childhoods and still is syndicated today. Danny Tanner was the Mike Brady or Ward Cleaver type of character for the Millennial generation. And being shocked and upset about his death is not weird at all especially given how young he was and the environment. Many people weren't fans of Full House but still expressed sadness. I understand pointless bitchery. Like you can make fun of Full House and stuff. But it's pretty shitty to mock people for being sad over his death. Compared to many others in Hollywood, he had nothing bad said about him.

He got tons of coverage on Philadelphia news channels. Our city is so thirsty for publicity of any kind.

He died in bed so hopefully he died while asleep.

END.
