>>> We are family.
It's supposed to be about fun,
celebration.
And houseful of people who love
you.
>> True story.
>> I want to be a part of that
don't you?
>> Welcome back to "Access
we just surprised Jodie with her
"Fuller house" cast mates.
You play an ex there, right?
>> They're engaged.
>> Again?
>> Since the first season.
Second season?
>> Yeah.
With you.
>> Did you start off?
How did you come into this?
You came into a pre-existing
fuller house.
>> Yeah.
No pressure.
They're family for 30 years and
then little old me is like can I
join?
>> You fit in quite well.
We love you instantly.
>> Amazing.
Incredible journey.
It was bizarre because I have to
apologize.
I was not -- I didn't watch when
I was a kid because I didn't get
it.
I'm sorry!
>> I'm kidding.
>> I wasn't star struck when I
first started.
I was like this is going to be a
great experience and they were
so lovely.
And then we got to the first
show.
The very first show we taped in
front of an audience and it was
like Elvis Presley concert.
>> It is crazy.
>> Crazy.
I realized maybe I'm part of a
huge phenomenon I wasn't aware
of.
And it was -- it's been
incredible.
Like family.
>> Yes.
Juan Pablo is in.
Been brought into the fold like
--
>> Thick.
>> Yeah.
Part of the Fam now.
>> I feel like we wanted to see
the existing characters and so
part of the story lines and
everything with this?
>> Oh yeah.
Although as the cast has grown,
when everyone is back, I think a
Thanksgiving episode, third
season --
>> 30 people.
>> It was like -- I think we set
the record for the most people
in a sitcom scene that actually
had speaking roles.
Like 21 of us or something like
that.
With Nikki and Alex and Jesse
and Becky and everybody.
We have a huge cast.
>> Are any of the guys on set a
little threatened by you?
You know?
>> No.
>> The suave.
>> I am.
>> Stamos.
You have good hair.
He has good hair.
>> I love the sort of friendly
rivalry that there is between
John Stamos.
More like Jesse.
We adore each other with John
but it's fun to play alongside,
you know, John because he's such
an amazing, amazing, fun --
>> You never know.
Sometimes he'll change the
lines.
Where are we going?
What's happening?
>> Did they know about your
past?
I see your cross.
Do they know that you were --
>> Candace knew.
>> Candace knows?
>> I did know.
I remember I think -- because we
were -- when he got cast we were
like, who is he?
>> Who's that?
>> Who's that guy?
He can't sit with us.
No.
>> Not at all our table.
>> We were looking him up.
I was like, oh!
>> Yes, yes.
>> Oh my gosh.
Embarrassed.
>> So good.
>> We'll talk "Dancing with the
stars" coming up because I have
a beef and a bone to pick.
>> Any critiques or pointers
when he was on?
>> You were on.
>> I was on.
I think in the beginning I said
have fun but it's an interesting
ride.
It always is.
>> All right.
We have a game.
It is our -- day three of the
reindeer games, folks.
All right.
Bring in the nutcrackers.
Let's team up.
We have Jodie and kit.
>> Here we go.
>> The Latin lightning coming to
the nutcrackers.
>> What is this?
>> Do we need these?
>> You guys just grab nuts and
crack them.
That's how it works.
>> I can't get this over my
hair!
>> Safety first.
>> Hang on a minute.
Is there a key to cracking a
nut?
I'm serious.
>> Get it on the side, on the
rim.
>> I like your color.
>> Has to be cleanly cracked.
>> No dirty nuts.
Here we go.
30 seconds.
Ready, set, go!
>> Go, go.
>> Don't go for the hazelnuts.
>> I've never cracked a nut in
my life.
>> Not clean.
>> These are impossible.
>> Get an almond.
>> Easy one.
>> Oh!
>> Go big.
Go for the big ones.
The bigger the nuts the better.
>> What are these nuts?
I've never seen --
>> You know what?
I'm so glad we have the eye
protection.
>> Here we go.
>> Aah!
>> Done.
We got one, two, three -- people
right there.
We got nuts.
>> Nuts for days.
>> I don't know but you know --
nutcracker.
>> Your nuts are on the floor.
>> Thanks for entertaining us,
guy.
Saturday at 8:00.
On the Hallmark Channel.
We loved it.
>> Coming up, talking dancing.
So many people really upset
about this.
Because I picked you to win and
I'm upset.
>> I remember that.
I remember that.
>> Did the right person get the
mirror
mirror ball?
