John Stamos revealed how Bob Saget's death changed the close-knit connection between the Full House cast.

Full House, which also starred Lori Loughlin, Andrea Barber and Steve Weinger, was revived by Netflix as Fuller House in 2016. Many of the show's OG cast members appeared throughout the show's five-season run.
