"Full House" was one of my favorite shows as a child next to "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" and "Lizzie McGuire." It began in the fall of 1987, well before I was born, and ended in the spring of 1995. I watched these mostly as reruns when I was older. "Fuller House" is a spin-off of "Full House" with the same plot. D.J. is mother to three children and has two other women helping her raise them, Kimmy and Stephanie. If you're a fan of "Full House," "Fuller House" is a show you should take the time to watch.
Here are more reasons to watch it.
1. Nostalgic catchphrases
"You got it, dude."
Even though Mary-Kate and Ashley aren't in this show, in one of the trailers D.J., Kimmy and Stephanie call Michelle and say, "You got it, dude."
"Cut it out."
"Have mercy."
How rude!
2. They break the fourth wall.
You'll know it when you see it
3. They poke fun at Donald Trump.
I'm not going to give away the jokes in the first episode, but they exist! I'm also aware that the following GIF is a skit from Fallon and not the show.
4. Guest Stars
5. Dancing
From Kimmy dancing Hammertime to a group dance, there's plenty in the first episode alone.
6. Singing
Be prepared for tears!
7. It's on Netflix.
That means it's time to make a date with your best friend (even if that's your bed), make some popcorn, and get ready to have an awesome night.
8. Single mom feels
D.J. Tanner has three boys and is raising them on her own since the passing of her husband. Stephanie gives up her world DJ tour to help out her sister. Kimmy and her daughter also move in to help out.
9. So much nostalgia
They live in the same house, D.J. has her old bedroom, the cast from Full House is still around, there are references to "Full House" and to movies and events that occurred while Full House was filming.
10. Puppies!
Comet had Comet Junior who had Comet Junior Junior, and now Comet Junior Junior is pregnant!
11. New talent
Kimmy's daughter Ramona (Soni Bringas), D.J.'s children, Max (Elias Harger), Jackson (Michael Campion), and Tommy (Dashiell and Fox Messitt) are all new to the scene as well as Comet Junior Junior and the puppies.
But don't take my word for it. Watch a trailer:
Listen to Ellen:
Watch it! You know you want to!
