Actor Dave Coulier explained on a recent podcast how the name of his 'Full House' character, Joey Gladstone, originated from a stoner joke.

Much like his 'Full House' character, Dave Coulier is full of jokes. During a recent episode of his podcast, 'Full House Rewind,' the actor explained how his character’s last name, Gladstone, was born. 'I got to pick my own last name. Did you know that? My character's last name,' he told guest Debra Stipe, who appeared in three episodes of 'Full House' as Cindy.

The hit ABC sitcom, which starred Coulier, the late Bob Saget, John Stamos, Lori Loughlin, Candace Cameron Bure, Jodi Sweetin, Andrea Barber and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, ran for eight seasons, from 1987 to 1995. While the show grew in popularity as it aired, its first season wasn't well-received by critics. 'When you start a show, you are just kind of doing the best show possible, and you are trying to please people,' Coulier told Fox News Digital in June 2022.
