Bob Saget, the comedian and actor best known for playing Danny Tanner on the classic American sitcom Full House, was found dead in a hotel room in Orlando, Florida. He was 65.
Saget became a household name in the late ’80s and ’90s as the lovable single dad raising three daughters in Full House. While his on-screen persona was known for being squeaky clean and heartwarming, his stand-up comedy told a different story—witty, sharp, and often delightfully offbeat. That contrast made him a standout in Hollywood, beloved by multiple generations.
News of his sudden passing has shocked fans and fellow entertainers alike. Saget had been in the middle of a nationwide comedy tour and even posted just hours before his death about how energized he felt being back on stage. Tributes from co-stars, comedians, and fans have poured in, remembering him not only as a talented performer, but also as a kind and generous human being.
According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, there were no signs of foul play or drug use. The cause of death is still under investigation.
Saget’s impact on television was enormous. Full House became a cultural touchstone, celebrated for its themes of family, love, and second chances. He later returned for the Netflix reboot Fuller House, once again stepping into the role that helped define family-friendly TV for a generation.
As Hollywood mourns his loss, Bob Saget is being remembered not just for his legendary career, but for his authenticity and the way he made people laugh—whether on screen, on stage, or in person. His legacy lives on in the laughter he brought to millions.
