Danny Tanner Almost Had a Different Dad | Durham News

Jodie Sweetin spills the tea on Full House’s pilot: Danny Tanner almost had a different face—John Posey filmed the entire pilot before Bob Saget swooped in. Despite Posey’s charm and the cast’s bond with him, Saget was always the creator’s dream choice. A scheduling conflict with The Morning Program initially blocked him, but Jeff Franklin fought hard to get Saget, even reshooting the pilot at huge cost. The young cast was heartbroken to say goodbye to Posey, who later found success—including a role in Teen Wolf with his son. Saget’s casting? Pure magic.
