LOS ANGELES (CNS) - The late Bob Saget will be honored Sunday with the Impact Award at the Fourth Annual Critics Choice Real TV Awards, the Critics Choice Association announced.
John Stamos will present the award to Kelly Rizzo, Saget’s widow. The comedian was found dead Jan. 9 in a Florida hotel room. Officials determined he died from an accidental blow to the head, likely from a backward fall.
Saget hosted the inaugural NPACT Impact Awards — now named the Critics Choice Real TV Awards — in 2018. The awards were created to honor and recognize excellence in nonfiction, unscripted and reality programming across broadcast, cable and streaming platforms.
Randy and Jason Sklar, known as the Sklar Brothers, will host the show. Presenters include Kathy Griffin, Carrie Ann Inaba, Kevin Kreider and Derek Hough.
Saget starred in many successful television shows, including two of the most family-friendly shows network TV has ever produced — “Full House” and “America’s Funniest Home Videos” — and was also a Grammy-nominated standup comedian who performed for over 30 years.
