John Stamos spoke candidly about his time on the hit family-friendly sitcom “Full House,” and his comments may surprise you.
Appearing on last week’s episode of hot wing interview show “Hot Ones,” Stamos, who starred on “Full House” in the late 80s through the mid-90s as Uncle Jesse, admitted that he didn’t have very fond feelings for show at first – and even attempted to quit.
Stamos goes on to say that, at the time, he felt like he was “the star” of the show and had a “big shot” attitude in the early stages of production, so when his co-star Jodie Sweetin, who was just a child at the time, outshone him during the first table read, his ego was a little bruised. He said he vividly remembers running out to the lobby to call his agent to say, “get me the f–k off this show!”
“I fought it for a long time and then I finally said, ‘what am I doing?’ It’s a beautiful show built with sweetness and kindness,” he said, adding he came to the realization that “the central character was love,” and that “we were the best representation of a loving family – not a normal family – and it was the new normal.”
