Dave Coulier

Dave: (on Full House) Everybody in town here it seems was reading for that character because he was supposed to be a comedian. So every comedian was going in there. I just went in on an audition and auditioned. After I finished, they said, "Can you also read for the role of the father?" And I said, "Yeah, sure." So I read for the role of the father and they said thank you very much, then I went home and my manager called and said, "You got this pilot for some show called Full House." At that time, we taped the pilot episode with a different father, other than Bob Saget. So we shot the entire pilot with this other guy playing the dad. Bob was in New York doing the CBS morning program and he got fired, actually. So the creator of the show, Jeff Franklin, said, "I want you guys to screen test with Saget." And I had already been friends with Bob for years and years. It was just so strange because there we were auditioning together for this pilot that was already picked up. And ABC saw our screen test together and they fired the other guy and hired Bob. Then we had to go back and record all the scenes that the other father was in and we plugged Bob in. So it was very, very strange. A very strange start to the series.

Dave: Years ago the Red Wings made me the honorary captain of the team for the 75th anniversary of the NHL. That was their first mistake.
