The 77th Emmy Awards\u2019 \u201cIn Memoriam\u201d segment opened Sunday with a tribute to \u201cThe Cosby Show\u201d actor Malcolm-Jamal Warner<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Phylicia Rashad, the six-time Emmy nominee who played Warner\u2019s TV mom on the series, took the stage at the Peacock Theater to speak about Warner and honor the television personalities that died this last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was a beloved teenager in an iconic television series who the world watched grow into manhood,\u201d said Rashad, \u201cand like all our friends and colleagues who transitioned this past year, Malcolm-Jamal Warner remains in our hearts.\u201d <\/p>\n

Warner, who portrayed Theo Huxtable for eight seasons on the iconic family sitcom, died in July at age 54. <\/p>\n

\u201cTonight, as is tradition at the Emmys, we remember them, not just for their immense talent, but also for the way they made us believe in something bigger, the best that is within us,\u201d she continued. \u201cAnd even though they may no longer be here with us, we can all smile knowing that their impact will remain, knowing that their lasting impressions will continue to live on through story, knowing that they touched our lives. And whether you grew up watching them or have just now discovered their brilliance, their light remains in the very fabric of our industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Vince Gill and Lainey Wilson then performed \u201cGo Rest High on That Mountain\u201d as a slideshow of performers, writers, producers and more played on screens behind them.<\/p>\n

Remembrances for Michelle Trachtenberg<\/a>, Ozzy Osbourne<\/a>, Anne Burrell<\/a>, David Lynch<\/a>, Julian McMahon<\/a>, George Wendt<\/a>, Loni Anderson<\/a>, Maggie Smith<\/a>, John Amos<\/a> and Mark Snow were among those included in the tribute. An image of Quincy Jones<\/a> concluded the segment. <\/p>\n

Because of the telecast\u2019s time limitations, a number of television figures were not included in the tribute. Wrestler Hulk Hogan<\/a>, actor Polly Holliday<\/a> and actor Graham Greene<\/a> were among those missing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 77th Emmy Awards\u2019 \u201cIn Memoriam\u201d segment opened Sunday with a tribute to \u201cThe Cosby Show\u201d actor Malcolm-Jamal…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":228051,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1892,1582,276,17719,30046,31441,2961,73124,224,5337,123147,55707,123144,123146,16513,13003,123143,9221,58592,123145],"class_list":{"0":"post-228050","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-anne-burrell","9":"tag-ca","10":"tag-california","11":"tag-david-lynch","12":"tag-emmys","13":"tag-julian-mcmahon","14":"tag-la","15":"tag-loni-anderson","16":"tag-los-angeles","17":"tag-losangeles","18":"tag-maggie-smith","19":"tag-malcolm-jamal-warner","20":"tag-memoriam","21":"tag-michelle-trachtenberg","22":"tag-ozzy-osbourne","23":"tag-past-year","24":"tag-segment","25":"tag-stage","26":"tag-tribute","27":"tag-tv-mom-phylicia-rashad"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115206885461501637","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228050","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=228050"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/228050\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/228051"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=228050"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=228050"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=228050"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
