AI Summary

Bob Saget was a beloved American comedian, actor, and director, celebrated for his wholesome 'America's Dad' persona on iconic shows like Full House and America's Funniest Home Videos. Yet, beneath that squeaky-clean image lay a surprisingly edgy, often profane stand-up comedian—a fascinating duality that defined his unique legacy. Join us as we explore the life of a man who mastered both family-friendly humor and adult comedy, leaving an indelible mark on entertainment.

The Duality of Bob Saget

Robert Lane Saget, born May 17, 1956, and passing on January 9, 2022, was a singular figure in American entertainment. For many, he was the quintessential 'America's Dad' — the kind, empathetic Danny Tanner from Full House and the jovial host of America's Funniest Home Videos.

But Saget cultivated a fascinating public duality. While he brought warmth and laughter to millions of families, his stand-up comedy was famously, even shockingly, profane and edgy. This sharp contrast became a signature of his career, intriguing audiences for decades.

Early Life and Unexpected Paths

Bob's journey began in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in a Jewish family. His early years were marked by moves between Philadelphia and Norfolk, Virginia, where his sense of humor truly began to blossom, even as a 'rebellious student' in synagogue.

During a stint in Los Angeles, a young Saget even met and listened to stories from Larry Fine of The Three Stooges! Despite initially aspiring to be a doctor, an astute Honors English teacher saw his creative spark and urged him toward an acting career instead.

He embraced this new direction, attending Temple University's film school. There, he created 'Through Adam's Eyes,' a black-and-white documentary that earned him a merit award at the Student Academy Awards. A burst appendix even briefly derailed his graduate school plans, but ultimately pushed him forward with a new perspective.

From Morning Show to 'Full House'

Saget's television career began with a short stint on CBS's 'The Morning Program' in early 1987. But his big break arrived later that year, when he was cast as Danny Tanner in the sitcom 'Full House'.

'Full House' quickly became a smash hit, resonating deeply with family audiences. Just two years later, in 1989, Saget added another iconic role to his resume: hosting 'America's Funniest Home Videos,' a position he held until 1997. For several years, he juggled both demanding jobs simultaneously.

Behind the Camera and Personal Triumphs

Beyond acting and hosting, Saget was also a director. In 1996, he helmed the ABC television film 'For Hope,' a deeply personal project inspired by his sister, Gay Saget, who tragically died from scleroderma at just 47 years old after multiple misdiagnoses.

This heartbreaking experience fueled his lifelong commitment to philanthropy. Saget became a dedicated board member of the Scleroderma Research Foundation, tirelessly raising awareness and funds for the disease that affected his family.

In 1998, he directed his first feature film, 'Dirty Work,' starring Norm Macdonald and Artie Lange. While initially not a box office success, the film eventually garnered a cult following, thanks in part to its unique humor and later mentions on 'The Howard Stern Show'.

Post-'Full House' Ventures

After 'Full House,' Saget continued to explore diverse roles. He starred in the sitcom 'Raising Dad' alongside future stars Kat Dennings and Brie Larson, and lent his voice as the future Ted Mosby, narrating the immensely popular 'How I Met Your Mother' for its entire nine-season run.

His career also saw him host the game show '1 vs. 100' and even make recurring cameo appearances as a hilariously exaggerated version of himself in the HBO series 'Entourage.' He continued his stand-up with specials like 'That Ain't Right,' dedicated to his late father.

Saget also branched out into other creative endeavors, writing, directing, and starring in the 2007 direct-to-DVD parody 'Farce of the Penguins.' He even took to the Broadway stage in 'The Drowsy Chaperone,' showcasing his versatility beyond the screen.

In 2014, he released his candid and humorous memoir, 'Dirty Daddy: The Chronicles of a Family Man Turned Filthy Comedian,' which explored his dual public personas. He toured extensively, bringing his signature stand-up to audiences worldwide, including Australia.

He returned to his roots by reprising his iconic role as Danny Tanner in 15 episodes of the 'Full House' sequel series, 'Fuller House,' from 2016 to 2020. This brought him back together with his beloved former co-stars and delighted a new generation of fans.

In his final years, Saget remained incredibly active, releasing another stand-up special, hosting new shows like 'Videos After Dark' and 'Nashville Squares,' and even competing on 'The Masked Singer' as 'Squiggly Monster.' He also launched a successful podcast, 'Bob Saget's Here for You,' where he shared his thoughts and connected with friends and fans.

Personal Life and Legacy

In his personal life, Saget was a devoted father to three daughters—Aubrey, Lara Melanie, and Jennifer Belle—from his first marriage to Sherri Kramer. He later found love again, marrying television presenter Kelly Rizzo in 2018.

An Unexpected Farewell

On January 9, 2022, while on a stand-up tour, Bob Saget was tragically found dead in his hotel room in Florida. The news sent shockwaves across the entertainment world and deeply saddened fans who remembered him as 'America's Dad'.

An autopsy later determined that he died from blunt head trauma, most likely from an accidental fall. The resulting injuries, a subdural hematoma and subarachnoid hemorrhage, occurred in his sleep. Though he had COVID-19 at the time, it played no role in his passing.

In the wake of his death, tributes poured in. 'America's Funniest Home Videos' interrupted a broadcast to announce the news and dedicated a special segment to their original host. His passing also sparked a massive outpouring of support for the Scleroderma Research Foundation, receiving over $90,000 in donations and a $1.5 million matching grant in his memory.

A special tribute, 'Dirty Daddy: The Bob Saget Tribute,' featuring friends and comedians, was filmed at The Comedy Store and later released on Netflix. It served as a heartfelt celebration of a man who effortlessly bridged two worlds, leaving behind a legacy of laughter, warmth, and an enduring sense of humanity.

Bob Saget

Robert Lane Saget (May 17, 1956 – January 9, 2022) was an American stand-up comedian, actor, director, and television host. He portrayed Danny Tanner on the sitcom Full House (1987–1995) and its sequel Fuller House (2016–2020). Saget was the original host of America's Funniest Home Videos (1989–1997), and the voice of narrator Ted Mosby on the sitcom How I Met Your Mother (2005–2014). He was also known for his squeaky-clean family-sitcom image and at the same time profane comedian persona, with his 2014 album That's What I'm Talkin' About being nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Album.

Early life

Bob Saget

Robert Lane Saget was born into a Jewish family in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on May 17, 1956, the son of hospital administrator Rosalyn and supermarket chain executive Benjamin Saget. Early in his life, his family moved to Norfolk, Virginia, where he briefly attended Lake Taylor High School. He later said that his sense of humor developed while he was a rebellious student at the Conservative synagogue Temple Israel in Norfolk. Due to a lack of family in Norfolk, he returned to Philadelphia for his bar mitzvah. The family later moved from Norfolk to the Encino neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, where Saget met Larry Fine of The Three Stooges and listened to him tell stories. The family then moved back to the Philadelphia area prior to his senior year, and he graduated from Abington Senior High School. Saget originally intended to become a doctor, but his Honors English teacher saw his creative potential and urged him to pursue an acting career.

Saget attended Temple University's film school, where he created Through Adam's Eyes, a black-and-white film about a boy who received reconstructive facial surgery; he received an award of merit in the Student Academy Awards. While attending university, he took the train to New York City and performed at comedy clubs such as The Improv and Catch a Rising Star; his act included a section where he played the Beatles song "While My Guitar Gently Weeps", using a water bottle to make his guitar appear to actually weep. He graduated from Temple with a BA in 1978. He intended to take graduate courses at the University of Southern California, but quit after only a few days. He later described himself at that time as a "cocky, overweight 22-year-old" who "had a gangrenous appendix taken out, almost died, [and] got over being cocky or overweight". He further discussed his burst appendix on Anytime with Bob Kushell, revealing that it happened on the Fourth of July at the UCLA Medical Center, and that surgeons put ice on the area for seven hours before taking his appendix out and finding that it had become gangrenous.

Career

Following a short stint as a member of CBS' The Morning Program in early 1987, Saget was cast as Danny Tanner in Full House, which became a success with family viewers, and landed in the Nielsen ratings' Top 30 beginning with season three. In 1989, Saget began as the host of America's Funniest Home Videos, a role he held until 1997. During the early 1990s, Saget worked on both Full House and AFV simultaneously. In 2009, he returned to AFV for the 20th-anniversary one-hour special co-hosted with Tom Bergeron.

Saget performing in 2007

Saget directed the 1996 ABC television film For Hope, which was inspired by the life story of his sister, Gay Saget, who had died from scleroderma three years earlier. In 1998, he directed his first feature film, Dirty Work, starring Norm Macdonald and Artie Lange. Released one year after he left his role as host of America's Funniest Home Videos, the film received broadly negative reviews from critics and earned low box office returns. However, it has since become a cult favorite, due partially to Artie Lange's later popularity on The Howard Stern Show where the film is sometimes mentioned, often in unflattering terms. In 1998, Saget made a cameo appearance as a cocaine addict in the stoner comedy Half Baked.

In 2001, Saget took on another widowed-dad role, starring on Raising Dad on The WB. It co-starred Kat Dennings, Brie Larson, and Jerry Adler and lasted only one season, from October 5, 2001, to May 10, 2002. He served as the voice of the future Ted Mosby, who narrated the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother, which ran for nine seasons from September 19, 2005, to March 31, 2014. He was host of the NBC game show 1 vs. 100 from 2006 to 2008. His HBO comedy special, That Ain't Right, came out on DVD on August 28, 2007. It is dedicated to his father, Ben Saget, who died at age 89 on January 30, 2007, due to complications from congestive heart failure. From 2005 to 2010, Saget had a recurring role in four episodes of the HBO TV series Entourage playing a parody version of himself. He later appeared in the 2015 feature film based on the series. 2005 also saw him partake in "Rollin' with Saget", a song by Jamie Kennedy and Stuart Stone, about a night out with him that shows off his raunchier behaviors. The video appeared on the MTV series Blowin' Up, and he came to use it as a pseudo-theme song on his stand-up tours and website.

Saget wrote, directed, and starred in Farce of the Penguins, a parody of 2005's March of the Penguins, which was released direct-to-DVD, in January 2007. Saget appeared in the Broadway musical The Drowsy Chaperone for a limited four-month engagement. He played "Man in Chair" while Jonathan Crombie, who normally played the character on Broadway, was with the national tour of the musical. On January 4, 2008, Saget's caricature was unveiled at Sardi's Restaurant. In April 2009, he debuted in a new sitcom along with his co-star Cynthia Stevenson on ABC called Surviving Suburbia. The series, which was originally slated to air on The CW, ended after a single abbreviated season. In 2010, Saget starred in the A&E series Strange Days, in which he followed others in different activities and lifestyles, documenting their adventures in unusual ways.

In 2014, his book Dirty Daddy was released, in which he writes about his career, comedy influences, and experiences with life and death. He embarked on a small tour in support of the book, including the Pemberton Music Festival, where he introduced Snoop Dogg prior to performing his own set. In the same year, he toured Australia for the first time with a stand-up show called Bob Saget Live: The Dirty Daddy Tour. The show was performed in the major cities of Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Perth.

In 2015 and 2016, he guest-starred in two episodes of Grandfathered, starring and produced by his Full House co-star John Stamos. From 2016 to 2020, Saget reprised his role as Danny Tanner for fifteen episodes of Full House's sequel series, Fuller House, including the series premiere and finale.

In 2017, he released another stand-up special, Bob Saget: Zero to Sixty.

In 2019, he was announced as host of ABC's Videos After Dark. Saget also hosted the game show Nashville Squares on CMT, and made his first of three appearances as a panelist on To Tell the Truth.

In 2020, Saget competed in season four of The Masked Singer as "Squiggly Monster". Saget also launched a podcast titled Bob Saget's Here for You with Studio71. Its 130th and final episode, with comedian Dane Cook, was released posthumously on January 31, 2022.

He also made an appearance on Nikki Glaser's E! series Welcome Home Nikki Glaser? in an episode that aired on June 5, 2022.

Death

Bob Saget

At about 4 p.m. EST on January 9, 2022, Saget was found dead in his room at a Ritz-Carlton hotel near Williamsburg in Orange County, Florida. At the time of his death, Saget was on a stand-up tour and had performed in Ponte Vedra Beach the previous evening. An autopsy report released on February 9 found that Saget had blunt head trauma from an accidental blow to the back of his head, most likely from a fall, and had subsequently died from the resulting injuries (subdural hematoma and subarachnoid hemorrhage) in his sleep. He was infected with COVID-19 at the time, though there were no signs that it played a role in his death. His funeral took place on January 14, and he was buried at Mount Sinai Memorial Park near the graves of his parents and sister. On February 15, Saget's family sued to prevent county officials from releasing additional documents from the investigation of his death, arguing that their graphic content would present privacy violations. On March 14, a permanent injunction was issued against releasing the documents.

Tributes

News of Saget's death broke during a broadcast of America's Funniest Home Videos, of which he was the original host, and ABC interrupted the program to announce it. A tribute video was posted on the show's official YouTube channel, and a dedication to Saget was added before the credits of the following episode. Clips of Saget's hosting of the show were run from January 16 to the end of 2021–22 season on America's Funniest Home Videos as tribute as well.

Saget had been honored with donations and offers to help the charity Scleroderma Research Foundation (SRF), whose board of directors Saget served on since 2003. According to a statement made by the foundation's executive director on January 13, 2022, the foundation received donations from more than 1,500 donors from all over the world, totaling more than $90,000. Additionally, a donation of $1.5 million was awarded to the charity by one of its board members in the form of a grant, which will match every donation made in memory of Saget.

A tribute special was filmed at The Comedy Store by Saget's longtime friend Mike Binder on January 30; titled Dirty Daddy: The Bob Saget Tribute and featuring footage from a private memorial held at Jeff Franklin's home, it was released on Netflix on June 10, 2022.
