Quote:
"If you're doing a show and you're not an executive producer and own it, then you get residuals which can amount to checks from $2 to $2,000."
If this is what Sagat is getting, I can guarantee Kimmy Gibbler is getting a lot less.

University salaries are all over the place. While tenured professors and higher ups are getting a huge amount, there are also a ton of people in academia working for next to nothing. In fact, many positions available to graduate students and recent graduate students are unpaid.

She also wasn't an "Assistant Director". She was an assistant to the director, big difference:

The Huffington Post. After graduating, The Huffington Post also reports that she worked as the assistant to the director of International Programs at Whittier College.
Whittier college is a small college with a total attendance of about 1,800. She's basically an administrative assistant at a college about 5% the size of Mount Royal. Doubt she's rolling in it. Things have changed a little now, but actors really got shafted back in the day.

Not that I would know that at all
After the twins said no to returning, Stamos suggested that they contact Elizabeth to see if she'd do it. Her agent laughed at them and said there was no chance she would ever do it.

ah I misread

If she came in as Scarlett Witch and made them all fight to the death it would be an awesome show.

They could even have the crabby neighbour, Ultron wearing a straw hat secretly trying to destroy them.

We could call it a Full House of Avengers.

There's a real nostalgia thing happening on TV.

I mean they bought back Boy meets world (To be honest Girl Meets World is probably going to be better then this).

This one will have the curiosity factor but I doubt that many people watch beyond the first couple of episodes. I mean the original series was terrible and not very funny.

so they're building off of a bad premise.

Unless Kimmie starts shooting heroin into her eye balls.

I couldnt even finish that. I cant even watch the trailer.

Granted I never really watched the show so I'm probably not a great demographic.

I know my 11 year old daughter is super excited for this and so are her friends. They are all big fans of this show and have been for about a year. I don't know where it came from but one day she came home and started watching them on Netflix. She has watched the entire run twice and so have her friends.
Maybe we are not the audience they are going for?

Would make sense if Stephanie would put her boobs away for 5 seconds and Uncle Jesse wasn't insanely creepy.

That is the only reason I'm going to watch it, and it makes sense everyone has a creepy uncle touchy

You lie! There was never anything funny about Full House. It was the Family Circus of sitcoms.

Well today is fuller house day, how do I know? Well my daughter was up way faster than normal this morning to watch it. I watched most of the first episode with her as I was getting ready and it is pretty much what you would expect. Laugh track, basic jokes etc. But I have to say, damn those girls grew up.....

The AV club review was hilarious, it stated that its like a porn parody of Full House without the sex.
