Stamos wanted the twins off the show because they cried all the time. Red gummy bears were often used to get the twins to perform what the director needed. John Stamos asked the show's producers to fire the kids because they kept messing up takes. After the Olsens left, Full House tried stand-ins, but they didn't work, and the Olsens returned.
Full House tried to get rid of one of one of the twins, Ashley, years later because the differences between the twins was becoming more apparent. ABC didn't want both of them to continue playing the one role on Full House, so they chose Mary-Kate. Stamos, interestingly, was the one who intervened and prevented them from firing Ashley.
It's tough to envision anyone else playing the Tanner's father other than Saget. Throughout the length of the programme, Danny Tanner provides a number of fantastic dad talks, and he is often regarded as the series' heart. Danny even delivers the opening line in the first episode, which aired on September 22, 1987.
Having said that, the original pilot for Full House starred John Posey as the Tanner children's father. Posey was really the second option to play Danny, but due to a schedule confilt with Saget, the producers had to call him in. Saget's schedule eventually freed up, allowing him to return to the role he was born to play.
On the television sitcom Full House, each of the three main adult characters had their own romantic interest; yet Jesse was the only character that was in a relationship with another person for an extended period of time. Lori Loughlin's portrayal of Becky was so compelling, the characters even eventually, got married.
From the moment the two actors playing Jesse and Becky first appeared on screen together, it was clear that the two had a natural and compelling chemistry. After seeing this, the producers decided to bring Loughlin on as a frequent guest star and, eventually, a mainstay on the show, despite the fact that she had only been booked for a few episodes.
Have mercy! John Stamos almost left after the first table read. Stamos stated he ""hated" filming "Full House" but "obviously, I ended up loving it." Originally the show was supposed to be an Adult comedy, which John signed up for. Later, it was revealed that the show would feature children. Stamos felt the youngsters would steal and corrupt the show.
"Jodie Sweetin, who plays Stephanie, reads her lines, and people are dying laughing, I mean screaming. I was like, 'What's happening here?'"
Stamos told his agent, "Get me the (expletive) off this show!" after the first table read. Years later Stamos embraced being Uncle Jesse, and a fan favorite! "There was no central character on that show, I realized. The central character was love," he said.
Long days on set can be stressful, and the trio of fully grown male comedians found lots of ways to relieve that tension, including stripping down to their knickers. On set, Saget, Stamos, and Coulier were notorious for their proclivity to play practical jokes on one another.
They'd been working for a long while on a scorching day when they had the 'brilliant' notion of acting out a scene without wearing any trousers at all. The cast and crew generally felt that the take without trousers was hilarious, but the parents who were watching backstage with their children saw everything and were not happy.
Dave Coulier never had any difficulty passing wind while working on the set and never stopped what he was doing to do so. In his book Saget goes on to say that the scent was strong enough to cause the cast members to scatter and leave the set in any way possible.
It was because Coulier's gas had the power to spread across the entire stage, no one was ready to put up with the foul scent it generated. Throughout all eight seasons of Full House, at least one of his nasty rips was featured in each and every one of the show's gag reels.
Every one of the four young actresses did a fantastic job representing their sisterhood roles. It is conceivable that this was one of the main reasons Full House was such a great success. Despite Cameron-Bure (D.J. Tanner) and the Olsens' (Michelle Tanner) best efforts, Full House writer Jeff Franklin had Sweetin in mind for the character of Stephanie throughout the audition process.
She is the only character in the complete cast that did not have to go through a lengthy audition. Sweetin appeared on Valerie, a TV show, when she was just four years old, and Franklin was certain that she would be great for the role of the middle daughter Stephanie Tanner.
You'd assume that a nappy changer would be included in the budget for dealing with babies, but during extended hours of filming, Bob Saget was compelled to tidy up the Olsen twins more than he intended. Saget stated in his memoir, that he didn't want to be holding a child with a smashed filled diaper for a long scene.
He didn't want the nappy to produce a rash or soil his television baby's famous booty, so he took the effort to remove the aforementioned stuff from the diaper, leaving his TV baby poo-free for most scenes. After Saget died, Mary-Kate and Ashley remembered him as "the most loving and generous man."
Jodie Sweetin, the middle kid of the comedy family, was 13 and 'unemployed' when Full House ended. She went downhill after starting to drink during the wedding of her costar Candace Cameron when she was 14. Jodie went through counselling and addiction in high school and then later on college.
After she found addiction counselling, relapses cost her multiple marriages and custody of her first child. Jodie Sweetin has gone through a lot to live a life that anyone would envy. She became sober after having children in her twenties and has been sober for many years. Her recovery helped her build the wonderful life she now has and prepare for her successful second chance in show business.
The oldest and most treasured way to pass the time is doodling, and this cast was no stranger to doodles. The adult cast members couldn't get enough of doodling on important papers durring meetings. More often than not the cast woud draw d*cks as a way to make meetings or off screen time go faster.
By and large instead of taking notes, the cast, particularly Bob Saget, would scribble all over the pages of their recently printed scripts. Saget freely admited to having the maturity level of a fifth-grader when he drew d*cks all over papers and then proudly showed Coulier and Stamos his primitive creations.
