Five of the biggest revelations from John Stamos’ new memoir

The actor, most known for his role as Uncle Jesse in “Full House,” and Jesse’s most memorable scenes were with Michelle, the youngest of the Tanner clan played by the Olsen twins. But in Stamos’ memoir, he shared that he tried to get the twins fired when they were only 11 months old. He gave the show’s creator an ultimatum: “It’s either me or them. They’re not going to work out. They’ll ruin this show and my career.” 

 

So a new pair of twins were brought into the show who were “quiet, calm, and homely as hell.” But he reneged on his ultimatum and actually asked for the Olsen twins to come back. Ultimately, he ended up loving the twins and learned that  “Mary-Kate is stronger in the emotional scenes, Ashley scores in the comedic ones.” He also wrote that their sister Elizabeth Olsen (now known as Wanda Maximoff/ Scarlet Witch in the MCU) visited the set and “she quickly becomes my new favorite Olsen.”

 

Stamos shared that the late Bob Saget was jealous of his onscreen relationship with the Olsen twins and Dave Coulier. Stamos said he didn’t even think Saget was right for the role of patriarch Danny Tanner because he was not an actor but a comedian. 

 

“Bob is the humblest egomaniac I’ve ever met, but he undercuts his narcissism by being so damn lovable. A walking contradiction, he makes up for his self-inflicted insecurity by being a self-inflicted aggrandizer,” he said. “I know Bob is wickedly talented. I just don’t tell it to his face at this point. But If I want to learn anything about comedy, I need to study Bob . . . Bob and I tolerate each other and attempt to avoid interfering with each other’s creative processes, though it can be challenging.”

 

But the three lead male actors bonded when each of them had sisters who got sick: “Bob, Dave, and I are no longer three guys who work on the same show; we are brothers worried about amazing women slipping away from us,” he wrote. “All the fear, fighting for family, and frustration of loss has pummeled down some of our pettiness on the set. We’re seeing not only what is important in our own relationships with each other, but also our relationships with the fans out there who are struggling with issues of life and death.”

 

Stamos learned of Saget’s death in 2022 after he received a call from his publicist, sharing the TMZ story and then a text from Candace Cameron Bure. Then Kelly Rizzo, Saget’s wife called. He told Coulier and Lori Loughlin.

 

“When you lose a best friend, you lose a piece of your history,” he said. The “Full House” cast gathered at Saget’s home and grieved together.
