John Stamos on Full House in 1987

Has there ever been anyone as cool as Jesse Katsopolis? Jesse was Danny’s brother-in-law, who moved in to help out with the girls. He is best known as the frontman for Jesse and the Rippers (maybe you saw them at the Smash Club!), as a lover of king of rock ‘n’ roll Elvis Presley, and for that beautiful, beautiful head of hair. Have mercy!

John Stamos—2012

John Stamos has really done it all. After Full House wrapped, he’s done television: four years on ER and a recent stint on Glee. He’s been on Broadway in Bye Bye Birdie. He’s played with the Beach Boys, including on their recent 50th-anniversary tour. And somehow, at the age 50, he has managed to look hotter than ever (it's definitely the hair!).

Bob Saget on Full House in 1987

Wake up, San Francisco! Danny Tanner was everyone’s favorite morning talk show host (at least in San Francisco) and resident neat freak. He was heartbroken by the death of his wife but managed to hold it together for his three daughters, thanks to Uncle Jesse and his buddy Joey.

Bob Saget—2010

Full House was Bob Saget’s first major role, and it led to hosting gigs on America’s Funniest Home Videos and the game show 1 vs. 100. He played a parody of himself in a recurring role on Entourage, and these days you are probably more familiar with his voice... from the future: He provides the voice of Ted Mosby narrating the story to his kids on How I Met Your Mother.

Dave Coulier on Full House in 1987

Joey Gladstone had been Danny’s best friend since they were kids, so naturally when Danny needed help, Joey packed up Mr. Woodchuck and his best Bullwinkle impression and moved right in. He was a man of many gifts. During the eight years, he worked as a stand-up comedian, an advertising jingle writer, and a radio host with Uncle Jesse. But most of all he was always good for a laugh. Cut. It. Out.

Dave Coulier—2011

Dave Coulier hasn’t had a lot of high-profile projects since the end of Full House (though he was on Skating with Celebrities), but he continues to tour and do stand-up around the country with the family-friendly Clean Guys of Comedy tour. And, of course, we will always be left to wonder whether or not his ex-girlfriend Alanis Morissette was really singing about him in “You Oughta Know.”

Candace Cameron Bure on Full House in 1987

Despite her questionable taste in best friends (Kimmy Gibbler?), D.J. Tanner was one cool chick. Her high school boyfriend Steve was Bayview High's star wrestler! And no one could rock puffy bangs like D.J.

Candace Cameron Bure—2012

After Full House ended, Candace Cameron married hockey player Valeri Bure in 1996, and continued to star in TV movies, and guest on shows like Boy Meets World. But when she had her child in 1998, she took a break from acting to focus on her family. (She now has three kids.) These days she is acting again, and just finished up a three-year run on the ABC Family show Make It or Break It.

Jodie Sweetin on Full House in 1987

Stephanie Tanner definitely had middle-child syndrome, but luckily she could always rely on her best friend and confidant Mr. Bear. Out of the three girls, she got the best catchphrase: "How rude!"

Jodie Sweetin—2012

Things haven’t been so easy for Jodie Sweetin since the end of Full House. She developed a crystal meth problem, which she wrote about in her memoir UnSweetined in 2009. Today she’s doing better and getting the help she needs. Jodie is currently engaged to Morty Coyle and has two young children.

Lori Loughlin on Full House in 1987

In the second season of the show, Danny was stuck with a cohost on "Wake Up, San Francisco" named Rebecca Donaldson. Little did he know that she would also fall in love with Jesse and soon move in to his already full house (get it?).

Lori Loughlin—2012

Lori Loughlin has continued to work steadily since the end of Full House in TV movies and other series. She guested on Spin City, The Drew Carey Show, and Seinfeld and starred in her own short-lived series, Summerland. Most recently she spent three seasons on 90210.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen on Full House in 1987

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen on Full House in 1987

Michelle Tanner was played by a set of twins. They were babies when the show began, and so Michelle grew up the most over the show's run. She was never cuter than when she was telling Uncle Jesse: "You got it, dude!"

Ashley and Mark-Kate Olsen—2012

The Olsen twins? Never heard of them. We kid, we kid. Of course, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen went on to become gazillionaires after the end of Full House, launching an incredibly successful line of videos, clothing, books, and whatever else tweens might want to buy. Today they are more into adult fashion and have been mainstays on both best- and worst-dressed lists.

Andrea Barber on Full House in 1987

Who can forget Kimmy Gibbler? She was D.J. Tanner’s best friend and everyone else’s worst nightmare. The wacky neighbor was the staple of any great '80s sitcom (see also: Urkel; see also: Mrs. Poole), and the Gibbler never disappointed. Hola, Tannerinos, indeed.

Andrea Barber—2012

These days Andrea Barber stays out of the limelight. She retired from acting and is now married with two kids. She did play Kimmy Gibbler one last time, though, in 2012, for a Funny or Die video with Dave Coulier.
