Candace Cameron Won't Read 'Full House' Co-Star Jodie Sweetin's Memoir

Jodie Sweetin's new memoir 'Unsweetined,' which details some of the unsavory personal elements of her TV childhood background, won't have one reader among its ranks: former 'Full House' co-star Candace Cameron.When asked this week if she had read Sweetin's book, which came out in November, Cameron, who played Sweetin's older sister on the late 80s/early 90s TV show, shook her head, smiled and said, "I have not."
"Well, I am a little curious, but I can pass," Cameron told Inside TV at Tuesday's JCPenney "Joy of Giving" party in West Hollywood.
'Make It Or Break It' Interview With Candace Cameron Bure & Peri Gilpin
by Maggie Furlong, posted Jun 19th 2009 6:00PM
For all the attention gymnastics gets every Olympics, it's about time someone made a show about it. But ABC Family's new original series 'Make It Or Break It' (premieres Mon., June 22 at 9PM ET) isn't a reality show -- it's a scripted drama that centers on aspiring gymnasts. Stories revolve around the high level of competition in the sport and how the pressure affects not just the girls, but their families as well. The show also marks a return to series television for two TV favorites -- 'Full House' alum Candace Cameron Bure, who plays the girlfriend of one of the girl's dads, and Peri Gilpin, of 'Frasier' fame, who portrays a mom of one of the young gymnasts. We got them to admit that neither was ever a gymnast herself ... either from lack of opportunity or just plain lack of skill (ahem, Peri).
AOL TV got the exclusive scoop from both stars on their new show and took a look back at their most iconic roles -- and the friendships and hairdos they've kept since. -- By Maggie Furlong
'Full House' Cast: Where Are They Now?
by AOL TV Staff, posted Jun 2nd 2009 6:00AM
Ratings for 'Full House,' which began its run in '87, were low at first, with critics panning the cheese factor of the San Francisco-set sitcom. For its second season, ABC moved the Tanners to the family-friendly TGIF lineup, and the show about a widower raising his three daughters with the help of his brother-in-law and best friend found its groove. (Cheese factor? What cheese factor?)Running eight seasons, 'Full House' became iconic pop candy for Generation X. Just a taste of what it gave us: eye-rolling references for later dorm-room talks, John Stamos' "bad guys just need a hug" lesson -- and the Olsen twins, adorable-little-Michelle-turned-billion-dollar-empire-controlling entertainment tycoons. Name another sitcom with a track record like that ... Exactly.

Did you ever think when you were watching a pre-teen Keshia Knight Pulliam play a no-longer-cute Rudy on the last years of The Cosby Show that she was going to grow up to become a slamming hottie? Neither did I. But if you've seen her act or host one of those child star clip shows recently, you know that's exactly what happened. She's one of the more surprising entries on this list of ten child actresses from 1980s TV shows that became hot adults, courtesy of our new best friends at Wikia.com.TV Squad Hot Topics
