The world was devastated on January 9, 2022, when news broke that Bob Saget, the man often known as “Americas’ Dad” due to his iconic role as Danny Tanner on “Full House,” had passed away suddenly at the age of 65. In fact, fans of “America’s Funniest Home Videos,” a show Saget hosted from 1989-1997 and made guest appearances on several times ever since, learned of his death when ABC interrupted Sunday night’s episode to report the news (via TV Line).
As the news then traveled the world, co-stars began pouring out their grief on social media, including John Stamos, who tweeted, “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.” Former co-star and longtime friend Suzanne Somers also expressed her spontaneous grief when she heard the news — right on live television.
