 Full(er) House is coming back, bitches Yasssss. The 12-year old version of Libs just had a screaming, crying meltdown of happiness. Quote: ‘Full House’ Reunion on Netflix Is Officially Happening
April 20, 2015 | 09:42PM PT
Variety Staff
It’s official –“Full House” will return to television for a 13-episode sequel on Netflix in 2016, the streaming service confirmed.
John Stamos, who played Uncle Jesse on the popular family sitcom, broke the news Monday night on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”
Called “Fuller House,” the revival series will focus on Candace Cameron Bure’s character, D.J. Tanner, who is a recently widowed and pregnant veterinarian. Her younger sister and aspiring musician Stephanie Tanner (Jodie Sweetin) and her childhood best friend, Kimmy Gibbler, (Andrea Barber), along with Gibbler’s feisty teenage daughter Ramona, move in to help D.J. raise her two sons — rebellious 12-year-old J.D. and neurotic 7-year-old Max — and soon-to-arrive baby.
Stamos is set to produce the show and reprise his role as a guest star. Discussions with original “Full House” stars Bob Saget, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Dave Coulier and Lori Loughlin regarding guest appearances in the new show are “ongoing,” according to the Netflix release.
“Full House,” which aired on ABC from 1987 to 1995, followed Danny Tanner (Saget) and his large family in the wake of his wife’s death.
“As big fans of the original Full House, we are thrilled to be able to introduce Fuller House’s new narrative to existing fans worldwide, who grew up on the original, as well as a new generation of global viewers that have grown up with the Tanners in syndication,” said Cindy Holland, vice president of original content for Netflix, in a statement.
In a joint statement, executive producers Robert L. Boyett, Thomas L. Miller and Jeff Franklin said: “The continued support of ‘Full House’ fans of all ages for the last 28 years has been astounding. It is an honor and a thrill to catch up with these beloved characters and explore their lives today. The love you saw on the show was real. The cast has remained a loving family off screen all these years. We are as excited as our fans to finally bring ‘Full House’ back to life.”
On “Jimmy Kimmel,” Stamos said he, Franklin (who created the original series), Boyett and Miller had been planning the spinoff for years.
“It’s a labor of love,” Stamos said on the show. “We’ve been literally trying for so many years to do it right, and I think we’ve finally got it perfect.”
When Kimmel asked if Saget would appear on the show, Stamos replied, “He better.”
News of the “Full House” reunion broke earlier this month on TVLine. A spokesperson for Netflix said at the time that the story was “just a rumor.”
“Fuller House” comes from Miller-Boyett Productions and Jeff Franklin Productions in association with Warner Horizon Television for Netflix.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches I fucking loathe this show. This is the most unnecessary reboot ever.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches thompsoncory wrote: It's the worst piece of garbage ever. That's part of its appeal, though. It's so fucking corny that it's incredible. I can't wait for this. Especially since it sounds like Michelle and Joey, by far the show's worst characters, won't really be involved. Huzzah.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches Despite her heavy religious leanings, Candace Cameron Bure is a fairly likeable personality and I'm kind of digging the idea of centering a spinoff around her. And of course Stephanie and Kimmy. It could be a lot of silly nostalgic fan, a la Girl Meets World.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches So happy the rumors were true! I still love Full House (I still watch it all of the time on Nick at Nite and my boyfriend hates me so much for it). Yay!

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches It's especially bizarre coming from Netflix. Just doesn't feel like the right fit, but this would never survive on modern primetime. Maybe 8:30 on Fridays after Last Man Standing.
Does Netflix offer any original sitcoms of the multi-camera variety?

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches The natural fit probably would've been ABC Family, but it'll have more buzz on Netflix, which is obviously red hot right now.
At least it didn't end up on the Disney Channel like Girl Meets World.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches Is it wrong that all I could think about is that Comet has been dead for probably 20 years.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches Carly Rae Jepsen is doing the theme song to this inevitable shitfest. It depresses me. She deserves so much better as her album this past year was the best.

Re: Full(er) House is coming back, bitches Jodie Sweetin is looking pretty good after her stint with meth.
Is this going to be single-camera or will it include a studio audience/laugh track?
