Full House Show Analysis

America’s favorite sitcom, Full House, was dearly missed after having a very successful run for eight seasons. While the show came to an end in 1995, according to Business Insider “not only had Full House anchored ABC's Friday night comedies and stayed on top for most of its seasons, but it's still airing 40 times a week in repeats” (Nededog 1). The popular show had many fans hoping that there would be a reunion for years. Fortunately for them, there was, however, a little different from a traditional one. In 2014, there were talks about creating a spin-off. There were reports that Warner Brothers Television was considering a series reboot.

Things did not start to go into motion until 2014. According to Business Insider, Full House creator, Franklin, had thought about creating the new show for years."We had started back in 2008 trying to get this happening and it didn't come together and there wasn't anybody interested in any serious way, which was baffling to me because it's so hard to launch a show these days that any leg up you can get is crucial” (Nededog 1). John Stamos signed up to be the executive producer, and cast originals Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber all agreed to be a part of the project. Hiring the cast was very important for this sitcom. Most of the originals came back to give the ‘reunion feel.’ Warner Brothers hired a casting agency who hosted multiple casting calls. Some of the new actors that had been hired were Michael Campion as Jackson Fuller, Elias Harger as Max Fuller, Soni Nicole Bringas as Ramona, and Juan Pablo Di Pace as Fernando. The producers did very well with getting most of the characters from Full House to come back. During the first season, they were going for more of a reunion theme, so they had actors like Stamos, Bob Saget, Dave Coulier and Lori Loughlin come back for surprise visits. Casting these actors in the spin-off gave the audience just what they were looking for. To see the entire Tanner family household coming back together for the first time in years. This increased audience viewings because people loved the funny moments and characters in the original series. In the series, the audience can hear famous old lines such as ‘ head mercy’ and ‘how rude.’ The producers and the casting director did a good job implementing old characters and also add new characters to the show who still move the narrative along. An audience member can still re-visit memories, but also enjoy a new show with a different story
