In an interview promoting his upcoming memoir, Stamos discussed how Full House was initially pitched to him as a show similar to Bosom Budd but with kids. However, during a table read, he was taken ab when Jodie Sweetin, who played Stephanie Tanner, received uproarious laughter and praise for her performance.

Feeling overshadowed, Stamos immediately wanted to quit the show and even asked his agent to get him off it.

Stamos had previously expressed his lack of interest in Full House from the beginning.
