Things I learned while watching Full House in my 30s...

Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...


I've been having a lot of snow days and 2 hour delays lately. This has led me to start DVR'ing episodes of Full House. I know. As if I need another avenue to waste time. Did you know there are like 14 episodes of Full House on a day? (Don't worry, I only watch the "good" ones.)

Dang, I loved this show when I was a kid! I sent fan mail to Candace Cameron and Jodie Sweetin. It was definitely one of my favorite shows. But as I watch it as a 31 year old, I realize really it was absolutely ridiculous...


1. Danny Tanner was the funniest person on this show. My favorite thing he ever said: "Am I the raddest baddest dad a a kid ever had?"

2. Parents could just walk into schools... I watched an episode where Danny just waltzed into Steve's wrestling practice. Yeah right! It would not go down that way anymore.

3. Michelle was a BRAT. I fast forward through all her scenes.

4. They had a lot of "very special episodes". Like the one when DJ had an eating disorder for a day. (I'm not making fun of eating disorders, but I am making fun of getting one and overcoming it within a two day period!)

5. Whenever someone learned a lesson, you would hear a violin and then a faint saxophone in the background.

6. Uncle Jesse was actually very hot.

7. Joey was really creepy. He wasn't related to anyone in the house. What the heck was he doing there? Helping with the girls when Danny's wife passed away, I know, but at some point things were under control. I guess he didn't have family or any girlfriends so he wanted to live there.


And now for fun... a little Buzzfeed for you!

When Michelle made hundreds of dollars from her lemonade stand and bought a donkey.

    1. I know, if my students talked the sass she talked... there would be problems!

  3. I may or may not have watched the entire series as an adult in undergrad. I couldn't stand Michelle either. Also, I wish that every time I was about to learn a lesson the violin and sax would start playing. It would be very helpful.

  4. So funny. My sister loved this show! I felt the same way about 90210. I loved it when I was in middle school but now as an adult when I watch the old High school episodes I think how cheesy it was!

  5. Don't you get secondhand embarrassment for the characters??? 90210 was sooo over dramatic.

  6. I never realized that about Uncle ("uncle"???) Joey. Maybe that was for the best.

    Also - Family Matters was a great show around that time period.
