"Get them out": John Stamos Got Elizabeth Olsen's Sisters Fired from Full House, Regretted it Later

In the glamorous world of Hollywood, rumors tend to spread like wildfire. One such tale suggests that John Stamos, the beloved actor who played Uncle Jesse Katsopolis on Full House, was responsible for firing Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, sisters of Elizabeth Olsen, from the show back in the 1980s. And what led to their dismissal? It was their childish behavior.

During a recent episode of the Good Guys podcast, Stamos admitted that the constant crying of the Olsen twins during a scene was driving him to the brink of insanity. Unable to bear it any longer, he made the decision to have them taken off the show. Full House, the iconic television sitcom that ran from 1987 to 1995, marked the Olsen twins' debut as child actors portraying Michelle Tanner.

Stamos confirmed this incident back in 2015 when speaking to the Television Critics Association audience. He recounted how the twins' incessant crying made it exceedingly difficult to get the required shots, leading him to declare, "Get them out...!" As a result, the show briefly experimented with other child actors, but ultimately, the producers decided to bring back the Olsen twins.

Despite this behind-the-scenes incident, the bond between Uncle Jesse and Michelle Tanner remained a cherished part of the show. However, it seems that the special connection did not extend beyond the camera. Stamos's revelation sheds light on a tumultuous day on set during the first season when the Olsen twins were going through a tough time.

Stamos vividly recalled a scene where he and Dave Coulier were handling the baby, and despite their efforts to soothe her, she continued to scream.

In subsequent years, the Olsen twins ventured into various movie and TV projects, such as Two of a Kind, So Little Time, Holiday in the Sun, and New York Minute.

Eventually, they transitioned away from acting and found success in the world of fashion design. Despite opportunities to reprise their roles on the Fuller House revival, the twins declined, choosing to continue their journey in the fashion industry.

In retrospect, Stamos expressed regret for his actions, acknowledging that he had spoken to Mary-Kate about joining the Fuller House series but respected their decision not to participate.

It appears that off-camera, the relationship between Uncle Jesse and the Olsen twins took a different turn, leaving the behind-the-scenes drama as a chapter in Full House's rich history.
