Jodie Sweetin, known for her role in the sitcom Full House, revealed she recently received a one-cent paycheck from the show's residuals. The disclosure came on the April 21, 2026, episode of the McBride Rewind podcast, where she spoke to host Josh McBride. @DailyCaller reported that Sweetin highlighted how streaming has ended traditional syndication payments.
"I got a one-cent check the other day," Sweetin said. She explained that "there's no syndication anymore because it's all in streaming. Who gets paid for that? " The actress noted that residuals were more substantial during the first run of syndication.
Sweetin described the income as unpredictable. "You don't know how much it's going to be or how often they're going to run the show," she stated. In her 20s, she said, there would be money from residuals, but it was not reliable.
"People think I live some extravagant life," Sweetin told McBride. She detailed her current situation: "I drive my 2023 used Hyundai Sonata that I love. I rent my house.
It led to the 2016 spin-off series Fuller House. The show launched the acting careers of John Stamos, Lori Loughlin, Dave Coulier, Candace Cameron Bure, Andrea Barber, and Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. Full House also bolstered the stature of Bob Saget, who was popular as a stand-up comedian at the time.
@DailyCaller reported these details on the show's impact. Sweetin volunteered at Babylist Beverly Hills to distribute baby and personal care essentials for families impacted by the LA Fires on January 28, 2025, in Beverly Hills, California. The event took place at the Babylist Beverly Hills Showroom & Shop.
