"Worst In Memoriam ever": Internet outraged as Oscars 2022 misses Bob Saget in tribute performance

Bob Saget, the legend, has been left out of the Oscars' 'In Memoriam' tribute this year and the internet is outraged. The 94th Academy Awards was one of the most eventful Oscars in recent history, with Will Smith and Chris Rock getting into an altercation.

But amidst all the drama, the internet is disappointed that Saget was left out of this year's much-talked about In Memoriam tribute segments.

This year's In Memoriam paid tribute to a number of legendary celebrity figures like William Hurt, Richard Donner, Ivan Reitman, Betty White, Sidney Poitier, and more. It seems unfortunate that the Academy Awards forgot to include Saget's name in the tribute and Twitter has not taken the move lightly.

In Memoriam is a segment of the Academy Award ceremony that viewers look forward to. It was introduced to pay tribute to the legendary stars that we lose every year, a loss for humanity. In order to remember those legendary names once again, the Oscars host the In Memoriam.

This year's tribute was altered in many ways to include special first-hand accounts from those closest to the stars. Tyler Perry spoke about Sidney Poitier's impact on his life, Bill Murray paid a tribute to his Ghostbusters director Ivan Reitman, and Jamie Lee Curtis remembered Betty White.

This year's tribute was more of a celebratory one rather than being a solemn goodbye, with a choir dancing and singing songs like Spirit in the Sky. Sadly, in this celebration, some names were forgotten.
