Bob Saget, Actor from ‘Full House,’ Dies at 65

The famous actor and comedian Bob Saget has passed away at the age of 65. 

According to Variety, Saget died Sunday at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Orlando, FL at the age of 65. The police were called to the hotel just after 4 p.m. where they found him unresponsive in a hotel room. He was pronounced dead at the scene. 

As of now, there is no information on the cause of death. According to TMZ, the Orange County Sheriff’s office reports that “detectives have found no signs of foul play or drug use in this case.”

The official cause of death will be determined at a later date by the Medical Examiners Office.

Anyone who grew up watching TV in the ’90s, or who generally loved family sitcoms during that time, knew of Bob Saget. He played the indelible TV dad, Danny Tanner on ABC’s Full House and later on the Netflix spin-off, Fuller House as well as his long-running hosting gig on AFV.

While Danny Tanner is his most memorable role, Bob Saget was also a stand-up comedian who made a career out of making people laugh. 

Bob Saget was in the middle of his nationwide comedy tour that had started back in September 2021 and was slated to run through June 2022. According to a post he made on Twitter, Saget had just done a show in Jacksonville, FL on Saturday evening.
