As I was sitting here thinking about tomorrow night, this thought occurred to me and you can watch it above. And it occurs to me now as I write this, I hope you all join me – and watch with your family and friends.
Bob Saget was as lovely a human as he was funny. And to my mind, he was hilarious. We were close friends and I could not have loved him more.

One of the dearest people I have ever known, George Shapiro, just passed. I bless our friendship and, at 99, I’m sure I’ll see him relatively soon.
I’m told EVERYONE is invited to ABC’s Celebration of my 100th Birthday Thursday night. Thank you, ABC, for this generous and thoughtful gift. It certainly makes up for the two pilots of ALL IN THE FAMILY you forced me to make in 1970.
His face, his expressions – all matched the kindness of his heart. Sidney was a noble man and will be missed dearly.
It’s been a minute… #breakfastthoughts
As a 99 year old combat veteran of World War II, the father of six, and grandfather to four, I couldn’t be more grateful to Steve Kerr, a man who expressed everything I’ve been feeling since the horror of yesterday’s killings. Please watch.
Here’s a taste of what we’re going to see tonight. As soon as the evening ends, I’ll be sharing a few special performances I’m told the network just didn’t have time to program. Be sure to check them out!
Nearing 100, and the only one left of this glorious B-17 crew, my heart is singing “God Bless America.” #veteransday #uso
What a special treat to see @tonydanza on stage tonight. Who knew the man could sing so well? I was fortunate enough to experience the full performance in the room that night and wanted to be sure all of you could share in my enjoyment.
It’s hard to believe that today marks the 80th anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. I can’t help but think of all the men and women with whom I served in combat so many years ago. Tonight, we celebrate them as well as the industry that has been so good to me for all of these years with another LIVE event. I hope you, your family, and friends will tune in at 8/7c on @abcnetwork for our third installment of #liveinfrontofastudioaudience.

I just saw something you’ve got to see — explore the trailblazing life and 70-year career of the iconic Latina actor, performer and activist. “Rita Moreno: Just a Girl Who Decided to Go For It” premieres Tuesday, October 5 at 9/8c on PBS and pbs.org/ritamoreno. #RitaMorenoPBS
This guy knows what he’s taking about. ••• #karenbassformayor @karenbassla
Even on Wednesday, please join me in giving to @peoplefor_. They are preserving the America that I fought 52 combat missions in WWII to defend. #Repost @peoplefor_ with @make_repost ・・・ “I could not be more grateful for your interest in People For the American Way,” says People For co-founder Norman Lear, “which is another way of expressing interest for the American Promise.” Please help us keep the fight going this giving season! ➡ https://bit.ly/3FKU1XY

I stand with @peoplefor, @lwv, and @dfadcoalition at the White House right now as they tell President Biden: no more excuses. We need you to get voting rights legislation passed NOW! #VotingRightsNow. I would be there getting arrested with you if I could.
These two men, @sekouworld and @steveconnell, were born out of our Declaration of Independence Road Trip. They’ve been good friends and collaborators ever since. I so wish their performance could’ve made the broadcast tonight, but here it is now for you to enjoy.
I could not be prouder or happier to see the way America is meeting its promise with the nomination of the first black woman to the Supreme Court. #Repost @peoplefor_ ・・・ Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will be the first Black woman on the Supreme Court ⚖👩🏾⚖️⚖ Judge Jackson has a deep and demonstrated commitment to civil rights. On the federal bench, she has shown her commitment to upholding laws that protect people with disabilities, workers, immigrants, and freedom of speech. As a former public defender, she brings to the Supreme Court the perspective of someone who has seen the justice system through the eyes of our society’s most vulnerable. Her lived experience as a Black woman enriches her perspective about day-to-day life in the United States and how the legal system affects people’s rights and lives, and is greatly needed on our highest court. This is a defining and long overdue moment for our country, and we urge the Senate to move swiftly to confirm this outstanding nominee. #JusticeForAll #ConfirmJackson #SheWillRise #BlackGirlMagic #SupremeCourt
