A memorial special for the late Bob Saget is coming to Netflix this Summer, according to one of his oldest friends.
Shortly after Saget’s death, a few of his friends and co-stars came together to pay tribute to the late actor and comedian in West Hollywood at The Comedy Store. Performances from Jim Carrey, John Stamos, Chris Rock, John Mayer and more took place that night.
Saget’s longtime friend Mike Binder made an appearance on “Dystopia Tonight with John Poveromo,” and revealed that he actually filmed the show and that it will be released on Netflix in June.
“It was a magical night,” Binder told the podcast. “And we filmed it. And I showed it to Netflix. I said ‘Look at this! Just look at 16 minutes of this.’ And Robbie Craw, the head of comedy at Netflix, he just said ‘This is remarkable.’ And they bought it as a special.”
“It’s just an amazing special,” Binder added. “Music — Jackson Brown and John Mayer play this song, a version of ‘These Days’ together that’s just beautiful. And then everybody gets up and sings ‘A Dog Licked My Balls’ which was Bob’s closing song.”
There hasn’t been any specific dates revealed but Binder narrowed it down to the first week of June.
