Netflix On The Verge Of Officially Ordering 13 New Episodes Of Full House
Yahoo – Everywhere you look, everywhere you go, there’s a… classic TV series being reborn. And TVLine can exclusively confirm that the revival craze has extended to the Tanners of San Francisco. According to sources, Netflix is thisclose to ordering Fuller House, a 13-episode multi-cam continuation of Full House to star Candace Cameron Bure as D.J. and Andrea Barber as her BFF Kimmy. Fellow Full House vets John Stamos, Bob Saget and Dave Coulier are being eyed to make guest appearances, with Stamos having a producer role, as well. An appearance by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen is seen as less likely, however, but fans can dream. The project is being shepherded by the original show’s creator, Jeff Franklin, who will exec-produce alongside Thomas L. Miller and Robert L. Boyett (both of whom also EP’d the original). Reps for Netflix and Warner Bros. declined to comment for this story.
Here’s a show that I will act completely excited for and will probably never, ever watch a single episode. Its like Girl Meets World or any sort of other old school, throwback revival. These things are better as a 5 minute Jimmy Fallon skit like they did with Saved By The Bell as opposed to a 13 episode season. There are like real life actual quality shows that struggle to land a full season like that. To be honest the business model doesnt even make any sense because the only people who care about Full House are old now and after watching one second of it will realize its not the same, and the young people of today dont even know what it is. Theres like nobody to watch this show. I guess people will binge just about anything these days though.
There would only be 3 reasons to tune into this. 1) Aunt Becky. Still a smoke:
But she aint in it.
2) Stamos. Still a smoke:
But he aint even in it. Just a producer. So that just leaves us with:
3. Bob Saget. Still not a smoke:
But it will be hilarious to watch him in the updated version now that everyone knows how much of a fucking creep he is. Danny Tanner was the most wholesome dad on TV and nobody knew that behind the scenes Saget was a goddam perv. Now seeing him on camera with DJ and Kimmy knowing full well he wants to fuck them will be pricesless.
PS – If we can get some Gia appearances I’ll watch for 10 more seasons:
