The Show
The show initially was going to have a ninth season. However, the ninth season was to be on the (then) new WB Network as an old, "classic" show to help launch the new network and lineup. John Stamos (Jesse) did not like how the show was being dropped from ABC, a top three network, and moving to a fledgling new network and announced that the eighth season would be his last. Candace Cameron Bure (D.J.) also planned on the eighth season as her last, doing sporadic guest appearances during the ninth season as her character D.J. came home to visit from college during the holidays, as Cameron in real life was planning on going to college after season eight. After these two announced their departures, the others decided that it was time to call it quits, and the writers decided the series had gone as far as it could go, and the eighth season on ABC (1994-1995) ended up being the final season for "Full House" (1987/I).
Of the six original characters (Danny, Jesse, Joey, D.J., Stephanie and Michelle), D.J. is the only character to not appear in every episode; she was not in the season 6 episode Subterranean Graduation Blues.
From Olsenfan89, found here I forget which season it was but in one episode, Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) is seen wearing a man's long-sleeved flannel shirt during the entire show - unusual apparel for the girl... unless you know that in reality she was concealing a cast on her arm! In real life, Jodie had broken her arm playing soccer. The accident happened just before filming so it was too late to explain the accident in that particular episode. So they wrapped Jodie in a long-sleeved shirt to hide the thing. Then, in time for the next episode's filming, they wrote the broken arm into the script. So if you're ever watching Full House, and Stephanie is in a long-sleeved flannel shirt staying as motionless as possible, now you know why!
The set where Full House was recorded is later used to record "Friends".
Mary-Kate and Ashley
By the age of six, Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen, the twins who shared the role of Michelle, started to look so different that audiences could tell them apart. It was considered to chose one twin over the other, and have just Mary-Kate Olsen play the role. However, their fan base at the time was so huge, and co-star John Stamos didn't want one twin to leave the show, so both girls were kept in the role.
Ashley's favorite musical group as a kid was The Beach Boys. On that note, they got to work along side their favorite singers in 2 episodes of Full House.
It is said that when Mary-Kate and Ashley first started Full House at nine months old, Mary-Kate was the calmer, less fussy baby, and because her sister was crying all the time, Mary-Kate had to play Michelle for most of the scenes in Season 1.
Mary-Kate attended her dad's wedding while Ashley did not.
Ashley says that the weirdest "twin" question that she and Mary-Kate ever got was "Do you have the same birthday?"
When Ashley and her sister promoted their 2004 film New York Minute, several of their Full House co-stars met up with them to support them, including Candace Cameron, Jodie Sweetin, Bob Saget, and Dave Coulier.
It's been said that on Full House, Ashley usually played Michelle when the character had to be emotional or act bratty in some way, while Mary-Kate took over for the more tomboyish, athletic side of Michelle. "One of them was more yuppie, and the other was more Melrose," TV dad Bob Saget once said about the girls in real life.
Ashley was said to be the fussier twin when she and Mary-Kate were babies on Full House, and because Ashley cried so much throughout Season 1, her sister was forced to do most of the scenes.
Ashley and her sister became the youngest self-made millionaires in American history before they were 10 years old.
In 1992, Ashley released a children's pop album Brother for Sale with Mary-Kate. 325,000 copies were sold.
Ashley's career started on Full House. The girls enjoyed playing dress-up in the costume room. Ashley took turns with Mary-Kate playing Michelle Tanner on ABC's Full House because of child-labor laws, and the two appeared together on screen only four times during the series.
Jodie Sweetin
As a kid, Sweetin would sometimes spend weekends with Full House co-star Bob Saget and his daughters.
Jodie had the original Mr. Bear, Stephanie's treasured friend from Full House, in her bedroom. She has a replica of him in her daughter's nursery.
Out of all her Full House co-stars, Jodie says that she is closest to Bob Saget, who played her father, and Candace Cameron-Bure, who played her older sister DJ. When Jodie was in labor with her first child, Saget text messaged back and forth with her husband, asking how things were going and wishing them well.
On Full House, Jodie's character had a stuffed bear that was very special to her, "Mr. Bear." To this day, Jodie still has the original Mr. Bear, and she put the show's stage bear, which looks exactly like the original, in her baby daughter Zoie's nursery.
Jodie was about eleven years old when the cast of Full House went to Disney World to film a two part episode at the end of Season 6, and by the time, the series had become immensely popular. It's been said that fans followed Jodie into the bathroom once, and she came out crying. At that point, everyone realized that stronger measures would need to be taken to protect all the cast members, especially the kids.
In previous interviews, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have credited Jodie as their favorite co-star on Full House.
When Jodie was younger she loved wearing jeans, leggings, and mini skirts.
Jodie had a fish named "Spot"

Jodie was in a show called 'Jim henson's Mother Goose stories' where children would sit and listen to a story for half an hour. Jodie started this while she was doing the first season of Full House. Not many people know she had a second job at that time.

There was a short "mini reunion" for Full House cast members at Candance Cameron's baby shower, which, Jodie Sweetin did indeed attend.

Jodie did not even have to audition for her role on Full House. The creators had seen the 4-year-old little girl previously on another show and liked her so much that the character Stephanie was written in just for Jodie.
She appeared in the 1993 Disney Easter Parade dressed as Cinderella along with TV sister Mary -Kate Olsen who was dressed as snow white.
Candace Cameron Bure
Around the 5th or 6th season of Full House, when Candace started entering her teen years, she was a far cry from being fat, but her slightly chubby frame was a cause of concern for many people. Because Growing Pains star Tracey Gold was recovering from anorexia at the time, everyone feared that Candace may be headed in the opposite direction, so her parents hired her a personal trainer. Candace has acknowledged that weight was never something she gave any thought to when she was that age, but she respects her parents' decision and says that it all turned out fine.
After their marriage, Valeri Bure sent Dave Coulier an autographed hockey stick that said: "Dear Dave, thank you for Candace."
Full House castmate Dave Coulier introduced Candace to her husband, Valeri Bure, when she was 17.
Candace had an uncredited role in the 1992 television movie, To Grandmother's House We Go, which starred 5-year-olds Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
