* BandOfBrothers: He, Creator/JohnStamos, and Creator/DaveCoulier became close friends during ''Full House'', and were known to hang out together anytime they could, all the way up until Saget's death.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Troll}}: Saget was known to be one of the biggest pranksters in Hollywood. Stand-up comedian Brad Williams (who is a dwarf) once related the story of how Saget asked if he wanted to meet John Stamos; when Williams (who had grown up watching ''Full House'') responded enthusiastically, Saget then informed him that Stamos had achondrophobia -- a fear of dwarfs. Williams was thrilled to be in on the joke, then waited until Saget had distracted Stamos before running into the room and humping Stamos' leg, which led to Stamos screaming in terror and Saget ending up on the floor because he was laughing so hard.
