In memoriam segment

An in memoriam segment is a memorial to the people, of a particular field or industry, who have recently died. Typically, such memorials air on television, mostly during awards ceremonies. The segments consist of images or video clips of the recently departed individuals, edited together into a montage and usually accompanied by music. These memorials have been featured in the Oscars, the Emmys, the Grammys, the Tonys, the Olivier Awards, the SAG Awards, BBC Sports Personality of the Year, and by the NFL during Super Bowl week. The segment is always followed by a commercial break.
