Full House Cast Reunites as John Stamos Receives Bob Saget Award

Watch: Why John Stamos Turns Down ‘Dancing With the Stars’ “Every Single Season”

Everywhere John Stamos looks, there’s the heart of Full House. 

As the actor was honored with the Scleroderma Research Foundation’s Bob Saget Legacy Award Oct. 13, he was supported by his former costars from the 1990s sitcom including Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin and Lori Loughlin. 

And while no one will ever know what happened to predictability, the Full House alums are, at least, consistent when it comes to showing love for each other. As Stamos—who starred as heartthrob uncle Jesse Kotsopolis in the beloved series—walked the red carpet, he took time to pose with Cameron Bure, Sweetin and Loughlin. 

True to their ‘90s roots, Cameron Bure opted for a plaid set reminiscent of her character DJ Tanner’s style. Meanwhile, Sweetin proved she’s still as sweet as her character Stephanie Tanner, sporting a pink satin dress and a bead necklace. 

Loughlin, for her part, complimented her on-screen husband—she played Jesse’s wife Becky Kotsopolis in the series—in a blue, sheer dress with gold detailing, while Stamos wore a classic black suit.

Meanwhile, Stamos’ support from another costar will have you saying, “have mercy.” Dave Coulier—who played best friend Joey Gladstone to Stamos’ Jesse and Bob Saget’s Danny Tanner—also phoned in to show support for his longtime pal. 

“I want to congratulate you, John, on receiving the Bob Saget Legacy Award,” Coulier said in a video message shared at the Cool Comedy Hot Cuisine event. “You and Bob have always been like beautiful sisters to me, and I love you very much.”

The comments obviously had Stamos and the entire crowd saying, “Cut. It. Out,” but the most sentimental part of the evening for the “Forever” singer was, of course, receiving the honor named for his late friend Saget.

“People talk about, you know, missing someone,” Stamos told People during the event, “but we never talk about really what they’ve left behind. Bob left this behind. Sure, there’s television, sitcoms and reruns and whatever. But this is a legacy. This is something to leave behind. And I just want to really acknowledge that.”

Naturally, when it came to Stamos continuing the legacy that his late friend started to honor his sister Gay Saget, who died from scleroderma in 1994, it was easy for him to say, “You got it, dude.”

“Bob’s sister got scleroderma, which he spent the rest of his life advocating and raising money for this horrific disease,” Stamos added. “Bob, we just ended up being best friends. And then we were just there for each other through all the ups and downs of life — divorces and marriages. But I just loved him so dearly.”

Funny BusinessWhile it’s hard to imagine the show as anything but the wholesome family sitcom it was, Full House creator Jeff Franklin originally intended for there to be more stand-up comics in the mix than just Dave Coulier‘s Joey Gladstone.His original concept was for House of Comics, a comedy about three comedians living under one roof. When it became clear that ABC was looking for something more in line with Family Ties and The Cosby Show, he changed course a bit.

Bizarro DannyThough late comedian Bob Saget was Franklin’s first choice for widowed father-of-three Danny Tanner, he was stuck in a contract as an on-air contributor over at CBS’ The Morning Program. So, when the original pilot filmed, John Posey assumed the role.Once Saget got fired from his gig, however, Franklin let Posey go and brought him aboard. Posey would go on to appear on shows like Seinfeld, ER, NCIS and, more recently, Teen Wolf and How to Get Away With Murder.

Meet Uncle…Adam Cochran?!In the original pilot script, Danny’s brother-in-law was named Adam Cochran. But John Stamos didn’t like the name, so it was changed to Jesse Cochran. After season one, he exerted even more influence and had the last name changed to Kastopolis to bring his own Greek heritage to the character. The sudden surname switcheroo was explained away as Jesse using a stage name to make himself sound more rock-and-roll. Because, sure, nothing is cooler than Cochran.

Twin TempermentOf the dozens of sets of twin babies who “auditioned” for the role of Michelle Tanner, what earned Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen the role that would turn them into icons for the rest of their lives was the fact that they were the only ones who didn’t cry once. After all, you need to make sure that fussy babies aren’t going to ruin your takes while filming.

No Love From Uncle JesseIn the beginning, though, Stamos wasn’t exactly a fan of the Olsens. Turns out that their placid auditioning was something of a fluke. “They cried a lot in the beginning,” he told reporters in 2015, confirming the rumor that they were even briefly replaced by another pair of twinning red-heads who didn’t fare much better, allowing for the Olsens to return. “So, yes, that was true.”

A Strange SecretFor some reason, the producers decided that they didn’t want the world to know there were two babies playing Michelle Tanner, so for seasons two through seven, they employed a bit of trickery in the opening title sequence and credited them as “Mary-Kate Ashley Olsen.” It wasn’t until the eighth and final season, after they’d exploded in popularity and the charade was no longer even remotely believable, that the credit evolved to Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen.”

A Near-SeparationAs the fraternal twins grew older and it became easier to tell them apart, the producers also considered letting one go, reportedly aiming to just keep Mary-Kate as the sole actor playing Michelle. Ironically, it was Stamos who put his foot down and said that he didn’t want one to have to be fired. What a difference a few seasons makes.It wasn’t just the twins who had found a place in his heart. Their younger sister Elizabeth Olsen also became close with the cast after frequent set visits. She even made a special appearance as “Girl with Flowers” in a 1995 episode.

The Other Full House TwinsIf you pay very close attention throughout the show’s first season, you’ll notice that any time the audience can see the mannequin in Joey’s room, its wearing the exact same shirt that Joey is wearing in the scene. The gag only lasted one season, but it’s a pretty involved one and begs the question: Why was Joey constantly dressing his mannequin?

A Catchphrase ThiefLest you think Coulier came up with his “Cut. It. Out” catchphrase by himself, or had it written for him in the Full House writer’s room, the comedian has admitted that he lifted it wholesale from a pal.During his time as a comedy duo with friend Mark Cendrowski prior to the show, it was Cendrowski who, while playing a suave character, would tell women in the audience, “You’re in love with me, now cut. It. Out.”As Coulier revealed to Buzzfeed back in 2014, “I told him, ‘I’m going to steal that. I’m going to use that someday.’ And he said, ‘Ah, you can’t steal that.’ So I starred on a show on Nickelodeon called Out of Control and it became my hook on the show. And when Full House started, I just brought it over and it stuck.”

A Love ConnectionAfter a season three dream sequence in which the girls were all grown up, Coulier found his first wife in actress Jayne Modean (a.k.a. the adult Michelle). They tied the knot in 1990, welcomed son Luc that same year, and then split in 1992.

The Original Becky PlanBefore she was spending time in prison for federal crimes, Lori Loughlin was best known as Aunt Becky. But that almost never happened. When she was originally cast as Jesse’s love interest, it was only intended to be for six episodes in season two. But the producers liked her chemistry with Stamos so much, they expanded the role and she never left.

Same Goes for SteveAs Scott Weinger told Huffington Post in 2012, his character Steve was only supposed to appear in one episode and not become a late seasons mainstay.”They had cast me just for this one episode where I think D.J. was supposed to be babysitting, but she really wanted to go out with this guy so she took the kids with her or something,” he recalled. “But it was just supposed to be that one episode and then, they wanted to add a character for the following season as D.J.’s permanent boyfriend, a regular character, and they asked me to play him. Of course, I was very excited.”

Nothing Rude About ThisThe only actor who didn’t have to audition for Full House? That would be Jodie Sweetin. After she impressed with a guest spot on Valerie, another sitcom produced by Miller-Boyett, Franklin offered her the role, sensing it would be a perfect fit.

Art Imitating LifeWhen it came to Joey moving into Danny’s house, both Coulier and Saget had real-life experience to draw on. And that’s because, six months after meeting in 1979, Coulier took up Saget’s offer to crash on his couch while passing through Los Angeles. The only difference? Coulier actually left after three weeks, while Joey and his many voices never vacated the Tanner residence.

In TroubleWhile it’s no secret that Saget’s comic sensibilities ran a little bluer than anything that ever aired on Full House, it turns out that the comic often got into trouble on set even when cameras weren’t rolling thanks to his, Stamos and Coulier’s antics solely meant to entertain one another.”The three of us—me, Bob and John—we got in trouble a lot. From the moms,” Coulier said on Oprah: Where Are They Now in 2015. “What we didn’t realize is that the kids are backstage and they have monitors in their rooms.”

A BromanceWith the chemistry between the three male leads a bit shaky during season one, a road trip to Las Vegas was planned during their hiatus to help them all bond. However, when push came to shove, a married Saget stayed home, leaving then-single Stamos and Coulier to go it alone. The bond built was so strong that the writers began pairing Jesse and Joey off regularly, allowing the two to share scenes as frequently as possible.

Perfect AttendanceOnly three actors appeared in every one of the series’ 193 episodes: Stamos, Coulier and Sweetin. Saget only misses the count because of the original pilot.

The San Francisco TreatAlthough the series was set in the Bay Area, aside from shots for the opening credits, Full House only ever filmed one episode on location in San Francisco: Season eight’s “Comet’s Excellent Adventure,” in which the family dog got loose and everyone went looking throughout the city for him.The locations written into the script would’ve been too hard to fake on the show’s Burbank stage, so the cast headed north for a few days.

Warner Bros.Television

Where’s Abu?When the show traveled to Walt Disney World to film a very special episode. D.J. imagines Steve as Aladdin, with Weinger actually appearing in costume. The fun of the sight gag, of course, is that the actor voiced the street rat in the 1992 animated film.

Not So TidyIf you know one thing about Danny Tanner, it’s that he loves a clean house. But if you go all the way back to season one, you’ll see that particular personality trait didn’t develop until season two. There’s even one episode in that first year where all three guys have to turn to their mothers for help to get their lives together. So much for continuity.

Life Imitating ArtJust like D.J. and Steve on the show, Candace Cameron Bure took Weinger to her real-life prom, too.

The Comet RumorTo set the record straight, the dog who played Air Bud did not play Comet. That dog appeared in one episode when his basketball skills were needed, but it was a different dog who played the Tanner family pup otherwise.

Pocket Books

From the Screen to the PageStephanie and Michelle each got their own book series at the height of the show’s popularity, with Full House Stephanie getting 33 books and Full House Michelle a total of 40. A 14-book series entitled Full House Sisters, centered on the shared relationship between the two, came next, followed by the four-part Full House: Dear Michelle, based around an advice column the youngest Tanner girl wrote for her third grade class.

From Russia, With LoveHow do you say “You got it, dude!” in Russian? In 2006, Full House was one of a group of Warner Bros. properties licensed to the Moscow-based network STS for adaptation to Russian. Topsy-Turvy House, which followed the American story closely while allowing for cultural differences, premiered in 2009 and ran for two seasons.

What Almost WasWhen ABC abruptly canceled Full House after its eighth season in 1995, an attempt was made to continue the show over on the then-fledgling WB network. The deal fell apart, though, when both Stamos and Cameron Bure decided they didn’t want to be involved.
