Lindsey Graham, Sen. Joe Lieberman, Larry Fitzgerald and Cindy McCain, paying tribute to American war hero Sen. John McCain; Hank Azaria and Benedict Cumberbatch celebrating physicist and pop-culture icon Stephen Hawking.

"What I appreciate about the special is you not only celebrate the lives and legacies of these iconic figures, but you learn even more about them through their friends and family. It's a wonderful way to honor their memory," said Robin Roberts, co-anchor, "Good Morning America."

"I totally agree with what Robin said," concludes Jimmy Kimmel, host of "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"
