John Stamos Had a 4-Letter Reaction to the Title of His New Fox Show

Grandfathered star also juggles Fuller House

After striking out with TV pilots for much of the last decade, John Stamos is thrilled to be starring in Fox's new sitcom, Grandfathered, playing a bachelor who discovers he is both a father and a grandfather.

"This is the show I've been waiting for for 10 years," Stamos told reporters at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour Thursday. (And indeed, his show is the best new broadcast comedy of the fall.)

But he's less enamored of the show's title, which "still catches in my throat," said Stamos.
