Saget was a comedian and actor known for his roles as Danny Tanner in "Full House" and as the host of "America's Funniest Home Videos." His raunchy comedy clashed with his straight-laced public image cultivated by those roles.
This is incredibly sad. I met Bob Saget a couple years ago when he visited a station I was working at in Kansas City. He was very kind and nice to all of us. ???? #RIPBobSaget https://t.co/bA7U76TCKR pic.twitter.com/gxCVCrRSS5
