The Two Iconic Comedians The Oscars In Memoriam Completely Forgot About

By BRANDON ROWE AND ROBERT BALKOVICH

For reasons that are unclear, the Academy left out two of last year's most notable deaths in the world of comedy. Unfortunately, neither "Full House" star Bob Saget nor "SNL" star Norm Macdonald were included in the “In Memoriam” segment.

Although both Bob Saget and Norm Macdonald were best known for their work on TV and the stage, they do have film credits to their name. Macdonald had memorable performances in "Billy Madison," "Grown Ups," and "The Ridiculous 6."

Saget's own film career included small roles, but his most enduring film legacy may just be his work as a director. Saget also directed Macdonald several times throughout both performers' careers, most notably in the 1998 dark comedy "Dirty Work.”
