Dave Coulier’s new podcast, “Full House Rewind”, is stopping in its tracks amid the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike.

Dave Coulier is pressing pause on his Full House Rewind podcast.

Full House Rewind, the rewatch podcast hosted by Dave Coulier, is pushing the pause button on the release of new episodes until the SAG-AFTRA strike is over.

It’s a "Full House" of nostalgic look-back podcasts from the beloved sitcom’s cast. Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber, who played Stephanie Tanner and neighbor Kimmy Gibbler, respectively, just released a rewatch podcast for the series on iHeartPodcasts titled "How Rude, Tanneritos!" Their co-star, Dave Coulier, who played Joey Gladstone on the series, also released a rewatch podcast a week ago on PodCo, titled "Full House Rewind." Despite the close timing of their releases, Sweetin and Barber told People in a joint interview there’s "no competition at all." "Dave's is so different, too, than what ours is," Sweetin explained.

My Netflix provides a consolidated view of users’ downloads; a list of TV series and movies they have given a “thumbs up” to; shows and films saved to their My List watch list; trailers they have watched; reminders they have set for upcoming releases; a list of titles that they’re in the middle of watching; and what they’ve recently watched.

Apparently, there was almost a world where John Stamos didn’t portray Uncle Jesse on Full House!

John Stamos is best known for portraying Uncle Jesse in the ABC sitcom Full House. Although Stamos loves the recognition he gets from the show, it wasn’t always like that.

“Full House” creator Jeff Franklin is going down memory lane on Dave Coulier‘s new series, “Full House Rewind”. Franklin appeared on the first episode of the PodCo series, where he and Coulier reminisced about the pilot episode of the popular family comedy, which starred the late Bob Saget, John Stamos, Coulier, Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin, Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen.

To this day, fans of Full House see Uncle Jesse every time that John Stamos steps onstage or onscreen in a new role. However, the actor just revealed that he almost quit the show before it became a classic.
