Get ready to travel back to 1987 and relieve the beginnings of Full House. Host Dave Coulier is joined this week by a man who needs no introduction. He’s a dear friend and the creator of our favorite TV show, Jeff Franklin! 

Dave and Jeff take a deep dive into the early days of the show and talk about Jeff’s original concept for Full House, the audition and casting process, and what it was like unexpectedly reshooting the pilot episode with a brand new Danny Tanner. They also give a look into how the cast was (and still is) truly like a family.

Who was the original Danny Tanner? Why did John Stamos almost quit the show? How many babies originally auditioned for Michelle? Join us to find out!
