Jodie & Andrea are back with Candace Cameron Bure in Part 2 to talk about their shared history on two of the most memorable sitcoms of the modern era.
Hello, everyone, Welcome to part two of our interview with fellow she wolf Candace Cameron Burret. This was a long overdue catchup and it filled my heart with so many sweet memories. So Fanorritos, please put your hands together for Candace.
I was thinking about are on Fuller, I think because those memories are way more recent.
Totally yeah follows.
But when we were on the seventies cruise, that was hilarious to me with our.
Moms, Yes, our moms, the yeah, just I don't know.
There was something. Were you on a scooter on that at one point? Andrea, I feel like you because you were pregnant.
Still I was pregnant, did I I feel like I maybe I rode in on the scooter. Wait, that wasn't when Jody had a broken leg.
No, I didn't have a broken leg.
In No, you didn't have your broken leg.
Yeah.
All I know is I had to hide hairspray in my armpit and then bring up.
Right and bring out a giant can of hairspray, right, and you pulled it off extension. Hiding hairspray in your armpit for years, it's.
Just so natural.
Well, that's when Lee Majors and Lindsay Wagner, right, were on the show, and they're used to single cam.
Yeah, tell you, Lindsay Wagner, speak up. You have to project right, And she's like, yeah, You're like, oh, that's right, I'm not laughed.
Yeah, I don't have a mic on, you know what.
That's another thing too, is we've been watching all these old episodes and seeing how often our moms were in the background of.
Various scenes the Bachelor auction.
One mom stood up at that inappropriate joke. I was horrified. Bob makes a joke about He's like, hey, you know, I could go all night and and my and.
The person and that stands up randomly waiting the thing is my mother.
And I was like at the time, I didn't get the joke, you know, And now I'm like just clutching my pearls mother.
Yeah.
But there was a lot of jokes like that that really just went over all of our heads that now I'm like.
Oh, yep, that's full House. Yep in a nutshell.
What do you have a best and least.
Favorite episode of Full House that you can think of? We've all agreed on what the worst episode is, so I've just I really yeah, yeah, universally universally Sea Crews third episode.
Which you guys weren't even really in, Like the girls get shipped off to Grandma's Yeah, and the guys are on The guys are on.
A boat with Danny.
They want to fish, but there's no fish, and then the three girls show up from Jesse's old band.
Yeah, and it's just.
The whole thing anyway, But that the joke was that my mom had always been like, that was the I didn't like that episode. And then when we had Jeff on, we asking like, what was an episode you didn't love.
And he was like, secrews, it's just not a great episode.
We were like, oh my god, like, yeah, it's a visual Yeah, that was the one.
And Lenny wrote that one too, so we didn't let him get away.
We're like, what were you You know you got between that and the Star Wars Christmas episode, it's almost funny.
Yeah for Lenny.
Oh okay, so that's yeah, that's universally the worst.
I mean, there was almost two hundred episodes. I don't even know, yeah, and I haven't watched them in so long.
But if it is the one thing you remember really enjoying.
Like the prom prom episode first Kiss.
I did not like the prom episode.
No, not that I didn't like the episode, but again, embarrassing teenager stuff. Yeah, so that was like not as enjoyable because in that storyline, Steve's ex girlfriend was like prom queen.
We go shopping before and we show.
Up in the same dress, right right, And of course you know, I'm I'm got my chubby cheeks and my my body, right, it's my body. I'm not going to shame my fifteen years.
You're beautiful, but I have.
My I have my body.
But the girl that played the ex girlfriend, you know, it was righter than me and three inches or four inches taller than me, and it's a lot older, the same dress and it was like leg so it was like here, like, clearly, she looks way better in the dress than I do. So again it's like those teenage Yeah, that makes sense.
What about Fuller fave least and most favorite episodes of Fuller?
I mean I always say it's new Kids on the Block and that or one of the best, and that legit was one of the best kids jacket on, Yes, And I think the reason why also that was I mean, there were multiple reasons why that was one of the best episodes.
But it was true about about four or five of them, four or five reasons, well for really the fifth.
One facet.
It was it was like a lifelong dream had finally come true because we had wanted them on Full House for so long.
We kept asking can you get new kids? Can you get new kids? And either they couldn't or wouldn't. I don't, I don't know.
So then to have them on Full House, it just felt like the circle of completion.
We were like, we finally got this.
We did it.
It was such a big win. It was such a big win.
And then it was just fun.
And then to have the concert at the end and singing, and it was just a fun episode.
Like I loved that one and loved having them. It was genuine excitement.
Me and Andrea, Oh my god, I'll never for YouTube.
Were losing your mind, like they were on set, and Andrew's in the hair and makeup, Sure You're in Sandy's chair getting your hair done, and it.
Was like, oh my god, it was so adorable. I love you.
Guys were here excited and I was like, I can't even name all of them, but I'm so happy that you guys.
Are happy, and you know, like my sister came, Bridget came to that episode, all of a couple of her friends, so all of us that you know, forty to fifty, they all showed up for the audience concert.
They were so funny.
All of our new kids, friends and family came for that episode and then.
They were all the extras in the concert. It was awesome. I mean, genuine excitement. Everyone was totally thrilled. That was fun.
That was so that was definitely one of the highlights.
But I think the other the other highlight for me in a different way, was very much our backyard wedding. Yeah, it just it was so cool to have everyone there. Yeah, as I mean to have the guys from the show, I mean the guys back, and then walking down.
The aisle and our moms again we're sitting there.
Yeah, and your dad de Barbes yep.
And then we had so many guest actors that came back, came back.
Virginia, Marla was there, David Lipper, David Lipper.
Might have been there, Yeah, David was there, Yeah, Marla, the what guy.
They whatever, guy, Scott Menville, Yeah was there.
So yeah, so and Joey McIntyre was there.
Oh yeah, it doesn't get better than that.
So that was a cool That was a cool big.
Do you think, Okay, be honest, do you think DJ should have ended up with Steve or Matt?
What's your honest opinion?
The deep dive in here, I'm I'm a deep dive.
In here because I haven't opinking news.
So funny or we can delete this if you want to think if my opinion changed, I because I'll tell you.
What it did.
And my answer is I think DJ ended up with the right person. Okay, I think it needed to be Steve.
Okay.
However, I will say that before that, while they kept talking about it in season three and season four, I and Scott's like one of my favorite people in the world, So this is nothing.
Of course, Scott, Yeah, of course me.
I had. I was pushing for Matt.
Okay, I was pushing it for Matt because John Brotherton's great, I mean said it was in chemistry.
Chemistry, Yeah, yeah.
There was, and that's and that's what we kept all going back and forth with And when I say we, I was talking about like producers, writers, heads of networks. Yeah, talking about it and with with John Brotherton. There was definitely chemistry, like, there was fun. There was he's such a fun comedian also, so and it felt fresh. It kind of felt like hot.
It was like the hot.
Well because we've you've known Scott for so long and he is like a brother or a cousin, you know.
What I mean. Like you're like, there's literally I love you in a completely platonic, non sexual.
At all, not a lot sense a way in the last but I love you, but not like that, you know what I mean?
And that and like you know, Scott, Scott does remind me of my brother a lot.
Oh gee, which is always a recipe for really strong atteraction.
I don't yeah, no, that's not yeah, being like you remind me of my brother.
It was never a Stephen DJ like had their moment and and now they're just.
They're such they're best friends.
I'm like, I could see marrying Matt and having Steve as her best man totally.
I could have seen you, right, I could have seen that that's how they were, And yet Scott would have taken that so personally, No, he would be like, wow, I just right, is it my hair? Is it? Yeah?
He would have like we would have never heard the end of that. We never would have heard the end of that.
So I'm glad for all of our sake and Scott's that that DJ pixel.
But looking at it from a viewer perspective, I think it was very satisfying DJ and Steve ended up together.
I think it was really cute.
And you know what, who doesn't want to marry their best friend? I mean, isn't that really the goal? You really do want to marry your best friend?
Yeah?
Yeah, but you know, we all know something spicy is always nice.
Right, Yeah, but yeah, at some point you're like, look, I don't I just let's just talk, you know, don't touch.
Me of both worlds because they're two really great guys.
Yeah, true, yep, Hey, anything can happen San Francisco, modern times, you know. But yeah, it was, and like it was so fun to bring in new people though and have sort of that different energy. But like when the you know what they called the Legacy Cast, when like everyone from sort of the OG cast was back together, My god, I just remember we'd all be like either sitting together in the living room or in the kitchen or and just inevitably getting in trouble because we were all being loud wherever they were trying to rehearse some scene elsewhere.
Yep, Adam always coming over going sh like.
We didn't even go to our dressing rooms that often because.
We could just sit on the blue couch because we just want to hang out because we're all friends.
Yeah, we would just sit on we would sit on the sit on the blue couch. Guys.
I would kick us out.
I would.
I would give anything for Fuller House to be back on again. I mean, it was such a highlight of my career in getting with you guys every day, and people like Chris and Adam and.
Who were a d who were amazing.
Yeah.
Yes, like we just had this fabulous crew and we again were like a family, just like on full House. But those are some of the best, just the best memories of working.
Like I just was excited to go to work every day. I was excited out with you guys. I was excited to read the script every week and go have fun.
Yeah, work hard, but have fun in the process.
Man, what I would have another five years of that show.
I will say too.
Even people that I talked to that worked on Fuller as crew or whatever, have said they stay in closer contact with people that they worked with on Fuller House than they have with any other group of people that they worked with on any other show.
Like they just and I don't.
I always say, I'm like, I don't know what little bit of magic like touched this show and this cast and whatever that just kind of connected everybody.
But it really was something unique.
Yeah, well it starts at the top, you know, with Jeff, and then moves to John, Bob and Dave and Laurie creating that family atmosphere, and then they passed that on to us so that we could help create that atmosphere when it was our turn to yeah, the grown ups.
That's so I don't know if i'd say that.
Do you guys know that Elias is? Elias played Max on Fuller House, the Middle Son.
Do you know that he's going to college?
Yes? I wrote his letter of one of his letters of recommendation, So did I you know he's old enough to go to college? Seventeen?
He what a year early, early wo nine, So.
He yeah, asked for the letter recommendation, which I happily wrote. But I was like, under one condition, you have to FaceTime me because I haven't seen you in so long because you don't live in La anymore. So since then we've been keeping in touch and it's just like my heart is so happy.
That's really see. Elias and I did a thing.
I was reading a story or I saw it posted again on NPR because NERD, but it.
Was a story about this.
School in rural Maine where this little boy and his best friend started, inspired by Max Fuller, started dressing on I believe it was Wednesdays, Dapper Wednesdays, and they would dress in suits and go to school and remember that story, and that was inspired by him, and so I read about it and I found the teacher and sent a message and was like I.
Love this, this is so sweet whatever.
And then I hit up Elias and I was like, would you want to do a FaceTime like for this class? And it was like a small little classroom, and so we did a FaceTime with these kids every and they've started now the whole a bunch.
Of kids at the school do it.
They've been getting donations so that kids who maybe don't have dapper outfits can find stuff.
They've got little bow ties for whoever wants to wear them. Ties, jackets, all dresses, whatever, now.
The teachers, some of the teachers do it on Wednesdays, but it has like it's now become a thing over the last couple of years of school that they do this little dapper Wednesdays that was inspired by Max Fuller and Fuller House.
So it was really sweet. We did a little FaceTime and saw these kids and they were all dressed up and it was super cute. I love it. Right, Yeah, that's so sweet.
Wait, it's still like, I mean, very very much relevant and happening.
Can we go down memory lane real quick and remember our girl's trip to O High?
Sure we wrapped Fuller House.
Like I was looking through like old videos and pictures from that time, and it was raining, and.
Yeah, drove up there in my car, just trying to do the that's right.
We all met at the Starbucks and we all got in the car together and I think we went into Starbucks and and people were like, you know, like right, yeah, and then we're all in the car being insane, and then god what he couldn't get the TV to work?
Really tried.
Yeah, Jodie had to fix the TV and fix the TV.
I was samming it out there and uh, we did the weird masks.
We had two rooms, like a like a.
Two bedroom suite.
Yeah, oh had her bedroom and Andrew and I shared.
Yeah, there was like a queen and then like two queens or something.
And yeah, we did yoga.
We went to yoga, We went to the spa.
We did those weird face masks that shriveled our skin up.
Yeah, strange proof. It was the hannicured masks.
Yeah, and we put it on and then it was like great, Yeah, it was the strangest thing and like video creatures. Yeah, yeah, we were like weird little secreature.
Was such a good trip.
That was our gift to each other for the wrap of the series. Wrap of Fuller House, we're like, let's just get away for a girl's weekend.
And yep, and it was great.
Yeah, thanks Debbie camera Camera's freight. Debbie was up.
She lives up there, O'Brien. We saw. Yeah, well that's right. We have the lovely brunch. Oh we were Sophie.
Good eats good eats.
Man.
Now I want to go back to It was fun.
I want to do it again. I know, let's do it again.
Please.
That was super super well, well, well, when we wrapped fullest house. Uh, and we're little old ladies. There we go and we no longer need those handicure masks to look shriveled up.
Then well, yeah we can go. We can go.
Then I'll still be trying to fix the TV. You know, we'll have our private labeling the screwdriver or anything.
But yeah, yeah, we'll have a lunai. It'll be great.
So CCB, what are you working on now? What's next? What are you excited about? What can you tell.
Us the The biggest thing that's happening right now is I have a movie that's releasing in theaters at the end of April, April twenty six, the movie called Unsung Hero and guys, it's such a beautiful movie. I hope that you'll go see it, and I hope that everyone.
Listening to this will go watch.
But it's a pretty phenomenal movie about the small Bone family. And you might be familiar with them. They if you listen to contemporary Christian in the nineties, you would know Rebecca Saint James and she's a multi Grammy Award winner.
And then the.
Band for King and Country who is they are? I met them actually they came on the view and performed, but they're also multi Grammy winning and they are on like contemporary Christian but also regular pop radio. And it's their story about how they immigrated from Australia to the US, lost every single thing that they had and a family of seven kids, and rebuilt their lives together. It's really powerful and it's beautiful. And the title in itself unsung Hero. You know, it depends on who you relate to in the movie because there's so many characters that you can relate to. But the unsung hero in that movie for me is their mom Helen, who is really the backbone of their family, keeping them together through all of those really difficult trying times.
And they had each other, you know, they made their family the way I.
Saw I saw pictures, I think, and I had seen Kelly recently for coffee and she said that her and Laurie went to the premiere.
Yeah, I had a little pride of screen in LA and we're actually having our big premiere next week in Nashville Events and then Yeah theaters at the end of the month.
So that's so, you wear an amazing wig in this movie. I do, I do, and an access accent.
Yeah, it's playing like a lady from Alabama. She's a real person, miss Kay. And the whole movie is a true story, right. I play a Southern woman that had a big influence in their life that that helped them get back on their feet. But the other exciting thing for me is that my company, Candy Rock produced the movie. Yeah, along with Kingdom Story and then Lions Gates.
So nice.
That's all exciting stuff.
Yeah, it's huge. That's great.
Congratulations, that's very exciting. Definitely want to see it.
Yeah, in theaters.
I mean that's a huge that's the getting theatrical releases these days are not is not easy.
Yeah, I know.
So we're super nice.
