John Stamos Initially Demanded Olsen Twins Be Fired from ‘Full House,’ Later Insisted on Their Return

John Stamos found the Olsen twins' crying disruptive during filming of the first episode and demanded they be fired.
The show’s producers replaced the Olsen twins with another set of twins after Stamos’ complaint.
Stamos then demanded the Olsen twins be rehired just days later when their replacements were unsatisfactory.
The Olsen twins went on to star as Michelle Tanner for the show’s full eight season run.
Stamos and co-star Bob Saget clashed on set but eventually found common ground; Stamos gave a eulogy at Saget’s funeral.
