In her memoir “UnSweetined,” Jodie Sweetin details her long history of substance use issues and her struggle to get sober. Her harrowing experiences ended up helping John Stamos after his 2015 DUI arrest, and he later credited Sweetin for helping him celebrate four years of sobriety.
In 2019, Stamos honored Sweetin’s advocacy for addiction recovery by presenting her with the Writers in Treatment’s Experience, Strength and Hope Award. “When I finally humbled myself to ask for your help, I realized that the perky little blabbermouth had become the master of wisdom and was right by my side during some of the most difficult days of my life,” Stamos said of his co-star, per Variety. “Thank god, my wife and my new son will only know me as a sober husband and father. This is Jodie’s legacy in my life.”
So, while Bob Saget may be gone and fans no longer have new “Fuller House” episodes to look forward to, it’s nice to know that the show’s cast members have a hand to hold onto everywhere they look. And perhaps fans will get another reboot someday; some members of the cast told “Today” that they’d love to revisit their characters again. “I think Bob would want that,” Andrea Barber said. In fact, Saget told Entertainment Weekly in 2016, “What we’re expecting it to do is be so beloved by the fans that later there will be a ‘Fullest House.'”
