Stamos, Saget and Coulier Going All Out for Full House Super Bowl Reunion

As the clock ticks toward the Super Bowl kickoff, few people are working the pre-promotion circuit quite like John Stamos, Bob Saget and Dave Coulier. The former Full House co-stars make a reunion appearance in Dannon's game day ad for its Oikos Greek yogurt line, and the trio isn't wasting one moment of its renewed pop-culture relevance. 

On Wednesday, the avuncular triumvirate hosted a Reddit "Ask Me Anything" session, in which they tackled tough questions like, "How can I join Jesse and the Rippers?" and "To each of you, what is your favorite type of pie?"

Next, they were on to Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, where they reprised their Full House roles and hairstyles in a sketch (which you can watch below) about helping Fallon overcome his anxiety about hosting The Tonight Show.

If you need still more of these three, you can watch a litany of videos created during their Dannon shoot on the brand's "Bromance" microsite. And if you need more than all that, you may have a serious problem and need professional help.


    



Oikos Super Bowl Ad Likely Won’t Satisfy Full House Fans

If Dannon's Super Bowl ad teaser left you hoping for a Full House-themed spot in the big game, you're probably going to be disappointed.

The Oikos Greek yogurt ad starring John Stamos is now live on YouTube, and, as you can see below, the anticipated appearance by fellow sitcom stars Bob Saget and Dave Coulier barely even registers as a punch line.

In fact, the ad largely plays out the same as 2012's Oikos Super Bowl spot, focused on Stamos romantically sharing a yogurt with a ladyfriend. But this time, instead of getting headbutted, he gets cockblocked (sorry, mom, there's no other word for it) by his Full Housemates.

For a :30, it's a lot of setup without much payoff. But then again, the same could be said of Stamos' multiple attempts at dairy-centric seduction.

If you're still craving more Stamos-Saget-Coulier shenanigans, check out Dannon's "Bromance" microsite, where you can find a few low-budget clips of the TV uncles clowning around. Or just cross your fingers and hope that the 2015 Super Bowl's inevitable Family Matters reunion turns out more fulfilling.

In Honor of Movember, Please Dad, Grow Back the ‘Stache

We hope you’re not too tired of Movember, because we have a fun moustache-related item today. Two creatives over at Reno agency The Glenn Group started a website to get their dads to grow back their signature ‘staches. (So far one of the fathers has started growing it back, while the other has not.)

On Grow It Back Dad, they explain the reason for the site’s existence “If your old man had a mustache, and like ours, he did the unthinkable by shaving it off and going around bare-lipped, then this site is for you. We have the tools you need to get your dad to grow his ‘stache back, all while getting involved in the epically good cause that is Movember.”

If you were expecting, like me, for this to be accompanied by photos of their father’s nifty seventies moustaches, you’ll be disappointed. This is a pretty glaring omission, as you’d think shots of the fathers with and without their facial hair (and then with the facial hair re-grown) would be the backbone of the campaign. But fear not, there are plenty of shots of other people’s father’s moustaches over at Grow It Back Dad’s Facebook page, and also this funny picture of what Full House era Bob Saget would look like with a Hulk Hogan moustache: photo

If you’d like your dad to grow back his signature ‘stache, Grow It Back Dad has a form letter you can use to send dad a heartfelt email. If that won’t work, there’s also a petition to persuade your father that the world really misses that hair under his lip. There’s also a link to the Movember site, and a link to the Facebook page, where you can upload photos of your dad’s moustache — or just some random funny ‘staches. Enjoy the Movember madness, and we hope your dad listens to reason and grows back his lip warmer.
