Storyline

This is a story about a sports broadcaster later turned morning talk show host Danny Tanner and his three little girls, D.J. (Donna Jo), Stephanie and Michelle Tanner. Before the show begins, Danny Tanner's wife is killed by a drunk driver. So he needs help raising his three little girls. He asks his rock musician brother-in-law, Jesse Katsopolis, and his comedian best friend, Joey Gladstone, to move in with them. As the show goes on, Jesse gets married to Rebecca Donaldson, Danny's co host of the talk show. The two have kids of their own, who are twins, Alexander and Nicholas Katsopolis. However, the show is about what happens as the story is going on.

Goofs

During the final season, a door is added in the kitchen directly from the hard camera. In the series revamp "Fuller House" the extra door is now gone as the kitchen is much darker than it was in the original.

The Best Show

I think Full House is one of the best shows ever made. I grew up watching it, now it's part of my past. I'm so glad ABC Family and Nick @ Nite are showing it now. I know I can always find something to watch on television (since it's always on). Although I don't know why Joey moved in (who has their friend move in to help them raise their kid?), I was still glued to every episode, even the boring (like the final episodes) ones. Personally, I think the plot of some of the episodes (such as Jesse not finishing high school or Stephanie being pressured to smoke) are still relevant today. It teaches kids a lesson, without them realizing they're being taught. And it's funny. I honestly still laugh at the same old jokes, because it's funny. And that's why it's the best show.
