'Get them out!' John Stamos admits he tried to have the Olsen twins FIRED from Full House

John Stamos didn't always like the Olsen twins when he worked on Full House, and he is not ashamed to admit it.

The 51-year-old actor admitted as much while speaking to reporters of the Television Critics Association in Beverly Hills, California on Thursday.

His admission came a week after a clip from Lifetime's upcoming The Unauthorized Full House Story showed the Uncle Jesse character requesting new babies after poopy diapers ruined a shot.

'It's sort of true that the Olsen twins cried a lot,' John replied after being asked about the scene from the behind-the-scenes TV movie, which had been released on July 29.

'It was very difficult to get the shot,' he added, saying that his reaction was 'Get them out!' when neither of the girls seemed ready for the spotlight.

Unfortunately for John and the other adult members of the cast, replacement babies did not help the situation.

'They brought in a couple of unattractive redheaded kids. We tried that for a while, and that didn't work,' explained John, who was at the press event to promote his upcoming FOX comedy, Grandfathered.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, now 29, were then brought back to Full House, soon becoming the sitcom's breakout stars.

The twins shared the role of Michelle Tanner - the youngest daughter of the show's family - during Full House's original 1987 through 1995 run.

When the sitcom ended, the Mary-Kate and Ashley went on to even greater fame in a series of movies marketed toward pre-teen audiences - their final movie was New York Minute in 2004.

Both of the twins eventually left acting, however, and are the only original Full House cast members not signed-on to return in Netflix's upcoming reboot series, Fuller House.

'The Olsen twins are teetering whether or not they’ll be around,' Netflix's Ted Sarandos told the TCA on July 28.

'There's a bunch of opportunity for them if they choose to. But they're not in the current creative.'

John, meanwhile, will not only act in Fuller House but is also one of the reboot's executive producers.

He revealed on Thursday that the cast of the new show had shot two episodes already - Fuller House is expected to air on Netflix starting in 2016.

Lifetime will beat Fuller House in getting its version of the beloved comedy on-the-air, with The Unauthorized Full House Story scheduled for August 22.

The cast and crew of Minority Report, The Grinder, Empire and Scream Queens were among other attendees at TCA panels that day.
