‘Full House's' Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber reveal Mr. Woodchuck's shocking price tag
His jokes were wooden — but Mr. Woodchuck cost some serious green. On the August 5 episode of Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber's 'Full House' rewatch podcast, 'How Rude, Tanneritos!,' the co-hosts and longtime friends discussed the story behind Joey's (Dave Coulier) beloved cheeky sidekick. 7 Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber during 'How Rude, Tanneritos!'

'I learned this from reading Jeff's book: this puppet cost $25,000,' Barber, 49, revealed, referring to the series' creator, Jeff Franklin. 7 Dave Coulier as Ranger Joe with Mr. Woodchuck in 'Full House.'

You don't even know how expensive that was. You don't even know.'' 'It was built by the Henson Muppet Monster Workshop,' she added of the Jim Henson company. 'They have a special little Muppet fleecing that they use. I got to touch a Hanson Muppet monster creation, even then.' In 2016, Coulier, 65, hosted a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) where he was asked if he managed to keep any memorabilia from the 'Full House' set after the series ended in 1995. 7 Dave Coulier with Mr. Woodchuck in 'Full House.'

Despite the original Mr. Woodchuck's tragic death at the paws of Coulier's ironically named pup, the fan-favorite puppet made a surprise return in the 'Full House' sequel, 'Fuller House,' which aired on Netflix from 2016 to 2020. 7 John Stamos as Uncle Jesse and Dave Coulier as Ranger Joe with Mr. Woodchuck in 'Full House.'

'Full House' creator admits 'this' episode is one of the show's 'worst': 'It was just from another planet'
Full House creator Jeff Franklin recently shared what he thought was one of the series' "worst" episodes, which may be a surprise to some fans. Franklin joined Andrea Barber and Jodie Sweetin on the most recent episode of the How Rude, Tanneritos! podcast to discuss the highs and lows of the Full House's third season. When asked what he believed was the worst episode of season 3, Franklin shared his "controversial" pick: "Tanner's Island," the season premiere. "It had so much potential and cost so much money," Franklin said. "And we went to so much trouble and it was so silly. It had no real storyline. It had no emotional through line. Nobody learned a thing." "Tanner's Island" is the first episode of season 3. It follows the Tanner family's hijinks during their vacation to Hawaii. They sail to a seemingly deserted island, then lose their boat, causing mayhem. Uncle Joey (Dave Coulier) gets hit in the head with a coconut. The gang later realizes they are actually near a Polynesian cultural center and Uncle Jesse (John Stamos) ends the episode by singing an Elvis Presley and Sweetin expressed surprise at Franklin's choice, but agreed that, while "Tanner's Island" was fun to shoot, it was not a strong episode. "It was just from another planet," Franklin said. Listen to the full How Rude, Tanneritos! episode with Jeff Franklin below. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

Jodie Sweetin says Dave Coulier sent 'horrifying' 'Full House' AI image to costars: 'I didn't get it'
Dave Coulier is keeping that Uncle Joey spirit alive and well in the Full House cast group chat. Jodie Sweetin revealed that Coulier likes to liven things up via group text much like his character livened things up in the Tanner household during the beloved sitcom's run in the '90s. Most recently, the comedian shared an AI-generated photo of the cast as "goths," which Sweetin told PEOPLE was "horrifying" at first. "Like, aged-down goths. And for some reason, there was a Kourtney Kardashian lookalike in there who was supposed to be Becky," she added of the character played by Lori Loughlin. 'But me and the Olsen twins were the same age, except for Mary-Kate, who actually looked like she does today." Sweetin explained that the late Bob Saget, who played beloved patriarch Danny Tanner, was also in the image depicted as Geddy Lee, the lead singer of Rush. "It was just a very, very strange thing. Dave made a joke. I didn't get it," Sweetin said, adding that she eventually understood. "I was like, 'Oh, sorry actually, the joke was great.'" The reveal that the Full House cast keeps an active group chat alive came right before several cast members reunited for iHeartRadio's How Rude, Tanneritos! Wedding Special live event. Sweetin and her podcast cohost and castmate Andrea Barber hosted the Sunday event that saw former costars Loughlin, John Stamos, Scott Weinger, and Marla Sokoloff reflect on their time on the show. The event marked one of the handful of times the show's cast members have reunited since Saget died in 2022 from head trauma after accidentally hitting his head in a Grande Lakes, Fla., hotel room. Coulier was among the stars missing from the reunion, as were Sweetin's TV sisters, Candace Cameron Bure, and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. While Coulier couldn't make the live event, he has made an appearance on the How Rude, Tanneritos! podcast before. In April, he opened up to Sweetin and Barber about learning that he'd beaten stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma and that his son, Luc, and daughter-in-law, Alex, had welcomed their first child together on the very same day. "I got the good news the day the baby was born," Coulier told his former castmates. "So I heard the news and I was so excited, and then Luc called us and he said, 'Hey, the baby just was born.' And so, I mean, it was an amazing day." Coulier noted that Luc and Alex welcomed a "healthy, great little baby" named Chance Lee. "He's 7 pounds, 6 ounces, and we will see him, I think, in 12 days," he added. "Because we're in Michigan and they're out in Sacramento."The comedian also recalled feeling like he'd accidentally "killed the moment" after delivering a real stinker of a joke in the family group chat following the announcement of Chance's birth. "I said to my son — everybody was teary-eyed and everything and [was] texting when the baby was born — and I said, 'I cannot wait to see that kid's expression on his face after he pulls my finger for the first time,'" Coulier recalled. "And there was just like, no one responded. It's like, 'Okay. I killed the moment.'" Thankfully, he explained that Luc messaged him back a few minutes later, telling him, "I just got that."
