Jodie Sweetin: From Full House to Full-On Stand-Up – All Thanks to Bob Saget!

Well, well, well, if it isn’t little Stephanie Tanner all grown up and taking the stand-up comedy scene by storm! Yes, folks, Jodie Sweetin, who stole our hearts as the adorable Stephanie on Full House, recently spilled the beans on how her on-screen dad, Bob Saget, nudged her towards the world of comedy. She shared these juicy tidbits on the Full House Rewind podcast hosted by Dave Coulier on June 28. Oh, and did I mention this all started around the time of Saget’s unfortunate demise in January 2021? Talk about timing! 😅

Comedy as Therapy

Sweetin, with all the grace of a seasoned veteran, gave a shoutout to Saget and Coulier for letting her unleash her comedic genius. She said, "You and Bob really gave me permission to have unfettered comedy, to just be funny and silly and say it and to use humor to get through some really dark stuff." Now, who knew that cracking jokes could be such a profound coping mechanism? 😜

The Influence Lives On

Before Saget shuffled off this mortal coil, Sweetin joined the Full House gang for the Netflix spinoff Fuller House (because why not milk the nostalgia cow, right?). Between 2016 and 2020, they brought back the magic, and Sweetin clearly soaked up all the comedic vibes. She reminisced about feeling honored that her jokes were given the nod by both Saget and Coulier. Ah, the sweet validation! 🥹

Remembering Bob

Fast forward to early this year, Sweetin commemorated two years since Saget’s departure with a heart-wrenching Instagram post. She described the surreal feeling of his absence, still expecting his texts in their group chat. “You will always be missed,” she wrote, calling him the best TV dad. Cue the waterworks! 😭

So, there you have it, folks! Jodie Sweetin’s journey from sitcom sweetheart to stand-up star is a testament to Bob Saget’s enduring legacy. He may be gone, but his influence is clearly alive and kicking!
