Default Netflix to air 'Full House' reunion, spinoff

Quote:
Co-star John Stamos announced Monday night on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" that Netflix has ordered up a reunion special, followed by a spinoff series called "Fuller House."

The show will feature Candace Cameron Bure, who played eldest daughter D.J. Tanner in the original series -- which aired from 1987 to 1995 -- as the recently widowed mother of three boys.

Never really cared for the show much myself, but my wife is sure excited about this.

Smart way to do it, use the reunion episode to fuel the ratings of the spinoff..

I will give it a go just for nostalgia. TGIF occupied some prime years of my childhood.

I want this to be Batman dark, and the actual story lines of the actors could make that happen.

Sure make the oldest one DJ or whatever her name is a recent widow who's also an extreme evangelical Christian who shunned her family until she became desperate and then came crawling home.

the middle sister a recovering meth addict,

The youngest one suffers from anorexia, and also somewhere along the line she was captured by an evil hidden corporate entity who cloned her, her clone is a intellectual failure that runs around doing thumbs up and saying cool dude.

John Stamos character, his last wife (from the original show) vanished on a family camping trip to the Grand Canyon. Jessie spends a lot of time in singles bars.

What's his names character Dave Coulier a failed comedian, the world stopped laughing at his lame jokes 20 yeas ago. Now he's accepted a job as a low level paper shuffler at a 3rd rate insurance company and he's started collecting guns and naming them.

The other dad, stopped being wholesome now he's got a raunchy sense of humor and recently got fired from his job as a teacher for crossing the line.

Kimmy Gibbler or whatever her name is, the only successful member of the original story, she got a doctorate and is the dean of a local university, she comes by not to be goofy but to rub everyone's faces in her success.

The twins that John Stamos (Jessie) and his wife had, are estranged they left home shortly after their mom vanished and became low level meth dealers, they're currently serving a dime at Parchman federal pen.

Man this series could write itself.

I need five million bucks, some blow and some inspiration prostitutes.

I wonder if this will make me hate Full House again.

Does make me think of what an odd inspiration Dave Collier was for "You Outta Know". I just can't dissociate him from his "Full House" role.

Absolutely terrible show, I despise most sitcoms but this one was incredibly bad. Almost as bad as Bob Saget's standup where he's all edgy and swears. I guess we're supposed to be suprised. Seems like the classical overcorrection, trying to regain credibility as a comic after the family friendly shows.

Hate this show as much as Big Bang Theory and 2 and a Half Men. Same garbage.

That is Bob Saget, he wasn't over correcting for anything. That was his stand up pre-Full House and post-Full House.

Have to admit, I have never seen any Bob Saget standup pre 1987, will just have to imagine how horrible it must have been. I think I was watching Louie Anderson, Gallagher and Howie Mandel back then, hahahaha.

...And he won't shut up about that time he got a BJ in a movie theatre from an aspiring singer who wrote a successful song about it.

I think Full House is worse by so much. It's Family Circus unfunny.

Nothing makes a man feel older than a TV show from my youth trying to capitalize on the nostalgia factor. Lets hope Seinfeld does not get any bright ideas.

Jodie Sweeten (Stephanie) is a recovering meth addict who now sports a massive pair of implants. Should make for quality family viewing.

So some photos from the new show have come out. Stephanie Tanner always was a bonermaker for me, and now she will continue to be. Don't judge, she's a year older than me. (spoiler for size)
NSFW!
