John Stamos wants to make a movie out of
Full House. Not since the talk of adapting
Hello, Larry has a rumor caused such an enthusiastic uproar.
The original show featured a widowed father (Bob Saget) who turns to a wacky friend (Dave Coulier) and his brother-in-law (John Stamos) to help raise his three daughters after his late wife was killed by a drunk driver. Yes, that was the set-up for one of the lightest of lightweight comedies.
According to Moviefone, Stamos says he's putting together a project that would
not include the original Full House cast. That would save us all from watching a 90 minute exploration of how two sickly sweet, perky Olson twins became desperately thin, tragic drug addicts. Cue the laugh track.

With the season more than half over, I can honestly say that I would have liked fewer "U-Turn threatens Nancy" moments and more of the brutal humor that Weeds is known for. Ditto for the "angry Valerie" scenes. Something tells me that she'll be around for the remainder of Season Three, and that spells trouble for my favorite band of drug dealers and suburban malcontents.

If anyone missed it over the weekend, the more notorious half of the Olsen Twins was given the opportunity to write about her favorite handbag. But this little ditty wasn't for a woman's magazine, or for a gossip rag like
InTouch. Nope, Mary-Kate Olsen wrote
185 words on her favorite Chanel bag for
T:Style, a quarterly magazine insert in the Sunday
New York Times (Bob
mentioned this in his "Out of the Blogosphere" report earlier in the week).
Wow. I know the
Times has gone after celebrities to provide bylines in the past, but the names you see are along the lines of Steve Martin, Woody Allen, and Larry David. You know, people who know how to write. I don't think any had the rudimentary ninth-grade writing skills that Mary-Kate demonstrated in her little blurb. More after the jump.
