Full House To Return
 

TGIF classic family sitcom 1987-1995 is in the early stages of devleopment of setting up a sequel. Its said to revolve around both DJ and Stephanie, hope it will not be like the ill fated Brady Brides but having grown up with the series and watching it in syndication to this day I am excited at the possibilty of what awaits. At times people were not all on board speciifcally Saget wanting to go back to his roots and Stamos's typecast fear. Stamos is much more interested these days and the only holdout might be the world of fashion beckoning the Oslen twins specically the edgier Mary Kate. I do wonder if its related to the Boys Meets World sequel that also has such a fan following and a cotemporary series of the TGIF same lineup. Its just in the pre-production stage but hope it goes full speed ahead. Thoughts?

I really hope this is true, as I LOVE Full House...but considering how little information there is, I can't be sure if this is gonna really happen or not.

First we get the Boy Meets World sequel and now Full House with Stephanie and DJ?!

I have heard over the years that Candace would be up to doing this...and Im sure Jodie would as well. I know the cast have always kept in touch and often do stuff together.

Ugh, what's next? Saved by the bell 2? The Fresh prince of bel-air the sequel?

As a fan of Full House; I think it could really work. The only people I'm sure you won't see is the Olsen twins.

I think Ashley Olsen would be up for a brief appearance. She unlike Mary Kate no longer acts however is the more willing to interact with fans and the Full House family. So if she can find time in her executive fashion duties and get Mary Kate's blessing I think Michelle will not be out of the question.

I would feel more comfortable if we get a report that both Candace and Jodi signed contracts. There was a statement that Vince Vaughn was set to produce a Brady Bunch follow up featuring Bobby's blended family back in late July 2012 but have not heard any more of it. Doubt it would interest me unlike this but its nice to know we got a chance of a follow up. I really wanted a tv movie reunion to fix the Danny/Vickie romance like Return To Mayberry fixed the Barney/Thelma Lou romance. Maybe I can get my wish if this get get into development. Fingers crossed. Hope it will go the way of Boy Mets World rather than the Brady Bunch follow ups.

Hmm, Link not working, I get the page not found screen. But I found a cached version of the page here.

However I found the source of the story here.

Hasn't that already happened two or three times? They tried to continue on with Saved by the Bell: The College Years which was very much short lived. Then, there was Saved by the Bell: The New Class which still had Mr. Belding and Screech returned later.

I found out why it did not work Tigerclaw, apparantly it was a rumor that ABC had picked up and spread to other sources. Dammit, I was looking foreard ot see a show I grew up with in a new light and fixing loose ends.

Ah, It was an April Fools joke.

Considering valid sources picked it up and the cast is crazy about each other reuninted about three to four times a year it seemed legit. Not to mention this is Novemeber 4th not April 1st. I do think something will get into the works due to all the private reunions they have.

Even with this being a hoax, it sure makes sense it would be believable, considering how Hollywood sure is milking this 80s nostalgia wave. I mean in the past few years there's been reboots, or news of reboots of: Dallas (2012 TV series), 90210 (2008 TV series) (early 90s but still close enough), Murder, She Wrote, Knight Rider (2008 series), RoboCop (2014 film). The Karate Kid (2010), Nightmare on Elm Street (2010), 21 Jump Street (2012), Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps (2010), Footloose (2011), Clash of the Titans (2010), The A-Team (2010 film), Tron: Legacy (2010, sequel to the 1982 film)...

Shall I really go on...? :lol:

Hmmm....maybe.

Although:

For years I said Family Matters should get a sequel series following the family of the married Laura and Steve. To make it easier on Jaleel, I saw married life kinda "mellowing out" Steve making him more "normal" allowing him to not have to do the freakin' Urkle voice. I mean a series where we see Urkel's kids practically writes itself.

I don't know. I watched it during its original run in elementary school, but cannot being myself to watch it once it went into syndication. Its something that does not hold up with me. Full House is beleiveable because of their close relationships. I don't know about the relationships of Jalel White and gang. I know the actress who played Harriett finally had enough of the show's refocus to the point of recasting the last several episodes. I admit to calling it The Steve Urkel show around age 8-9 so I guess that proves her point. No one complianed when the Crappy Days post-Richie( it was Happy Days with Richie) focused on Fonzie the superhuman though.

I'll admit the sci-fi (and Urkle) focus later in the series was a bit weird, but I think it's something a sequel series could remove in favor of standard family sitcom stuff.

Maybe. It will take a cast warm to each other like the FH cast and not be too busy with other projects, a stable of fans already into the idea, and a smart tv executive to put together a workable premise that the studio and cast can appreciate.

I feel like the family sitcom died with TGIF in favor of adult sitcoms. It was the staple of televsion for decades now its just Disney live action as the only remotely family sitcoms out there since the mid-late 90s'. I really hope that changes. I am not asking for another I Love Lucy or even something like Full House but something on the main four to five networks that is a successful family sitcom.

F*ck Urkel, GOD I hope we never see a spin-off for that sh*t. I think the entire world had enough of f*cking Urkel about 4 seasons before the show was cancelled.

As for Full House, I always loved that show and could be behind a follow-up, but it'd be kind of sad in a way, too. Aside from Stamos, who was a legitimately talented actor and musician and was therefore going to be successful no matter what he did (as his stints on E.R., etc., would prove), literally nobody else in the cast has done anything important in the entertainment industry in 20 years. Even Sagat's claim to "fame" these days is pretending (?) to be a washed-up burnt-out drug addict. A spin-off/reunion show could risk becoming a very sad, depressing, "Look! None of us have ever moved on from this show!" kind of thing.

As for the Olsens, f*ck them, too. I can't stand them. I can't stand how they somehow are considered "Icons" in the fashion industry, despite dressing like homeless people. I can't stand how Mary Kate more than likely had some involvement in Heath Ledger's death, but got out of testifying simply by crying a lot (Ever see the photos from when she got served a summons on the streets of NYC, where she immediately breaks into a full-blown crying fit? They're hilarious. She definitely knows more about what happened to Heath than she's telling, but she's rich, so we'll never ever know).

If they do a Full House reunion I'd hope they DON'T get involved. Sweetin's the hot one nowadays, anyway; they don't need Michelle.

A reboot focusing on DJ and Stephanie?

Let's call it Two Pair.

:lol: Clever, very clever. :lol:

And totally agreed. They both turned out pretty nice.

Balki and Larry :D

Balki , now with Texan accent : "....don't be raaaaaaaaaa-diculous !"

Larry : "Balki , I never thought I would say this....but could you talk the way you normally do ?"

:lol::lol::P

I kind of wish they'd do a Full House spin-off myself. I also liked Family Matters and Perfect Strangers, too. I doubt they'd come back, but that would be neat.

A series revolving around DJ and Stephanie, eh? As in, maybe, a single mother whose sister moves in to help raise the kids? All boys, just to make it difficult? Kimmy Gibbler lives in the basement?

:teek:

So....Straight lased Mom DJ, cool Aunt Stephanie and Gibbler as Joey?

That would be... perfection.

Ain't it, though?

I could definitely see that if they wanted to do it.

I'm all for giving Andrea Barber something to do.

Don't forget Dustin Diamond's porno. He probably made everyone on set call him Zack though.

What turned out to be a heavily advertised rumor by notable sources might actually happen after all. Its no secret that the cast has always been close and still get together often in private with looks at their get together in social media that they offer us fans. Now, the man who was the most eager for the show to end is trying to get something going yet again. John Stamos. It mentions that John has an ownership stake in the show. How is that? I have not heard that before. So chalk this up to pre-production and more legit but still yet to happen.

I couldn't imagine it, but a series focusing around DJ and Stephanie could be nice. I remember when I first started watching the show. I was a 1st grader when the show first started. Used to watch every week and Stephanie was my favorite since she was closest in age with me. lol

I can say this, though, I watched it for its entire run, unlike Boy Meets World or Family Matters.

They already did that and it was crap. It was called Saved by the Bell the New class and had all new characters minus Screech and Belding ( Is that how you spell his name? ) They also did Save by the Bell : The College years for a third series, that was way before this reset stuff.

If this works out I at least hope they tell us D.J and Steve got married and had kids, the way it ended it seemed like they were getting back together.

DJ and Steve seemed happily married in the ep of The Neighbors they were in. No kids tho. *lol*

I never got around to watching that after I could not find it on TV or online. Can you link the episode on this thread? It wasn't Steve and DJ that Candace and Scott were playing but what were the characters names? It would not be surprising if there were certain character traits like Steve's endless appetite that never seem to make him gain a pound.

Agreed, more Kimmy Gibler!

Hmm, I wonder if Danny Tanner would still be hosting the 'Wake up, San Francisco!' show... :D

Bob Saget commented on this yesterday afternoon. The news was said to be broken prematurely since nothing is off the ground yet. Lori loves her castmates but is unsure if its a good thing to revive something people cherish including herself. Also, if Michelle would be involved it would most likely Ashley in select few scenes since she occasionally joins up with the rest while Mary Kate has moved on.

This just in. Reports of Netflix reaching out to Franklin to put together a Full House revival of sorts hit the internet on April 2nd leaving us to believe it was possibly another April Fool's Prank even if a day late like before. It turns out a deal has been struck with information to follow tomorrow! This is Jeff franklin's viral tweet and John Stamos is scheduled to appear on Kimmy Kimmel Live tonight so perhaps it will be revealed there or it could be a coincidence.

So here's what I got... Drum roll... There will definitely be news tomorrow! I think you'll like it. Sorry to be a tease!

Wow... the plot to the Full House spin-off is depressing!

DJ is recently widowed pregnant veteranarian with 2 boys (ages 12 and 7). In comes Stephanie (the Uncle Jessie of the show as she's now an "aspiring musician/singer"), Kimmie Gibler (a single mom), and Kimmie's daughter, Ramona to help DJ out. Yeesh. :ohwell:

Either way it's officially gonna be on Netflix.

I hope tho it's explained right off what happened to her husband considering that it wasn't at all explained till the last season of Full House that the mom died in a car crash.

Do you mean the girls' mother? I swear they mentioned that first season.
