We are now living in a world where someone like John Stamos is being honored as a TV icon(one of the most overused words of the 21st century, along with "amazing"). It used to be real stars like Andy Griffith, Mary Tyler Moore, Dick Van Dyke etc.. All the real talent is passing away, but we have to have awards shows so ,this is what we get. Full House, what a "iconic" classic.

It could be worse.  At least Stamos has some acting chops. 

Just wait until they start honoring Ashton Kutcher, Melissa McCarthy, and Kat Dennings.

I'll agree that Stamos isn't exactly a TV icon in that Full House was a terrible show (though it was a phenomenon among kids--who knows why) and Stamos is not exactly a great actor or comedian. But I'm wary of the nostalgia that states that TV then>TV now and "the real talent is passing away." There are some very funny and talented people on television today. Julia Louis-Dreyfus comes to mind. Tracy Ellis Ross. Steve Carrell (was on TV). John Oliver. Samantha Bee. Bryan Cranston (was on TV, for both drama and comedy). Jeffrey Tambor. TV Land broadcasts old sitcoms, and they probably honor the people on the sitcoms they show.

Let's not forget that Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore are thankfully still with us. Grin

I wasn't saying that there aren't a lot of really talented people around, it's just that Stamos isn't one of them. But you're right, TVLand is probably "honoring" him because they air Full House. It's just all a little sad
