Back in 1995, our favorite TV family, the Tanners, had their finale. We thought we would never see them again, but they have returned! We waited twenty years for this classic to get a reboot and Netflix delivered. Here's a review of the first season of "Fuller House."
Your favorite family is just as funny as you remember!
Everyone is back together and just as funny as ever! Expect to see all of your favorite "Full House" memories eluded to or quoted. Danny, Jesse, and Joey are exactly the same. Now that the girls are all grown up, they're pretty funny too!
There's a new parental trio!
The three girls essentially function the same way as the men that raised them: DJ is the responsible parent like Danny, Stephanie is in the music business and is the cool aunt, and Kimmy serves as a best friend comic relief much as Joey did. The dynamic between these three feels authentic and really works. Although it seems like Danny, Jesse, and Joey style parenting, today there are a lot of new challenges with electronics and popularity of the Internet, smartphones and social media. The trio is new to parenting, so they're learning as they go along. (Sound familiar?)
And a new set of kids!
The "Fuller House" kids are, of course, similar to DJ, Stephanie and Michelle. But kids have changed a lot in the last twenty years, and these guys reflect it. This new batch of kids are age-wise similar to the generation before them at the start of the series: Jackson is roughly the same age as DJ, Max is around Stephanie's age, and Tommy is an infant. You can't forget Kimmy's daughter Ramona, who is the same age as Jackson, definitely has an odd-functioning friendship that reminds us of their mothers.
Kimmy Gibbler has the funniest scarves!
Back in the day, Kimmy always wore the strangest outfits -- even by 90s standards. Now that Kimmy is grown up, mostly, she wears more mature clothing. Except these scarves. They are hilarious and awesome and I want to make them!
Steve comes back!
DJ's first love returns -- and he still loves her, which makes things complicated. I won't say any more for the sake of spoilers, but I'm so glad he came back! I always loved Steve.
All of the nostalgia...
Everything you loved in the original is back. Positive values, 90s dance moves, retro fashion, catchphrases, the characters you loved, and deep conversations. Everything I wanted and expected "Fuller House" to be, it was!
