Finally, after 21 years, Full House has returned. Fuller House is even fuller – with the debuts of new characters; Max & Jackson Fuller, as well as Kimmy Gibbler’s daughter, Ramona. Fuller House will make you laugh, cry, and reminisce of old moments from the 90’s sitcom. Episode 1 kicks off with a bang – the gang is back and celebrating their last few days in their childhood home before it is sold. After Stephanie is overheard crying on the baby monitor, her sister Stephanie and best friend Kimmy decide to stay and take care of the kids. That is the main premise of this re-boot, the family will not only be taking care of DJ, but her kids.

Kimmy is now a party planner, Stephanie is a DJ going by the stage name ‘DJ Tanner’, and the youngest of the Tanner family, Michelle, is a fashion mogul living in New York City. Uncle Jesse and Rebecca have two grown up twins, while Danny Tanner is still hosting “Wake Up, San Francisco!” The 13-episode series is filled with dancing, smiles, and heart-warming moments. DJ’s ex-boyfriend, Steve Weinger, appears on the show, as well as Matt Harmon, both of whom are competing in a “bachelorette-like” contest to date DJ. Who does she pick? Well, you’ll have to watch to find out!

Some highlights in the series include the gang attending a San Francisco Giants game, Stephanie playing at Coachella with the help of Max, DJ’s son, and Kimmy re-marrying her ex-husband Fernando. There are tons of exciting dance scenes, as well as hysterical scenes that will have you laughing until the end of the episode. I really enjoyed the series, especially because I wasn’t sure if I wanted to watch it. After the first one, I was hooked and couldn’t get enough. I wish they made more than 13 episodes!
