Actor Jodie Sweetin clarifies a common misconception about Joey Gladstone and reveals how he is actually related to the Tanners in Full House.

I don't know why people thought Joey was an uncle to the girls just like Jesse is when Danny's school relationship with Joey was addressed in a season two episode. I love when Danny was like, "We have horrible middle names!" when him and Joey read the pledge that they wrote as kids that they buried with their time capsule items. :D :D :D

God bless you always!!!

Full House's "Uncle Joey" Mandela Effect Explained: Why You Think They're Related (https://screenrant.com/full-house-uncle-joey-mandela-effect-not-related-explained/)

Many Full House viewers have long believed that the Tanner girls referred to Joey as "Uncle Joey," but it's simply a case of the Mandela effect.

I never thought they once called him Uncle Joey, but I've noticed in the past couple of years, people refer to him as that. On a thread on Facebook, this article was posted and I commented that it's my pet peeve when people call him Uncle Joey. This comment got some backlash. They're upset that I don't think it's right to call a close family friend aunt or uncle. But that's NOT what I said. I was simply saying that the girls never called him Uncle Joey. It was just Joey. But plenty of people on that thread are stating otherwise. So, I've decided to binge the whole series to find out. I have no social life, so I can do something like this, lol. Anyways, I'm in the middle of season three right now and not once has he been called Uncle Joey.

The show producers should have had Joey and Danny be brothers, instead of best friends. That scenario would have made more sense and a lot less weird about letting Joey live in his (Danny's) house rent free and helping raise three girls.

This may sound ironic, but had I could've genuinely believed Joey and Danny as brothers had they stuck with John Posey as Danny instead of Bob Saget. If you ever get a chance to see the original, unaired pilot, John Posey's interpretation of Danny Tanner was arguably, closer in-line to what Dave Coulier had to give.
