Big changes in Jimmy Fallon’s life are keeping him up at night. To his good fortune, Bob Saget is here to help sing him a goodnight lullaby — a G-rated, Danny Tanner lullaby.
Saget, with the aid of his “Full House” costars John Stamos (Uncle Jesse) and Dave Coulier (Uncle Joey), appeared in-character on Wednesday night’s “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” to lull a pajamaed Fallon to sleep. In the scene, Fallon rises from his bed and beckons Danny — “Dad!” as Fallon calls him — to his room. Fallon explains that he’s troubled by the thought of leaving “Late Night,” at which point Uncle Jesse and Uncle Joey stroll in to lend a hand.
The actors repeatedly had a difficult time keeping a straight face — Uncle Joey’s impersonations of Johnny Carson, Jay Leno and his ventriloquist dummy from the sitcom, “Mr. Woodchuck,” had everyone on set breaking into a grin; and the three “Full House” stars made plenty of inside jokes that had the crowd in laughter and Fallon on the verge of losing it like in the old days of “Saturday Night Live.”
Watch Danny, Uncle Jesse and Uncle Joey put Jimmy at ease and sing Elvis Presley’s “Let Me Be Your Teddy Bear” below.
