You know when I liked Michelle the most?

After each episode had ended, and I didn't have to see her for the rest of the night. Then I thought she was great.

BWAH! You owe me a juice and a keyboard.

I liked her most when she was being a dumb kid and not 5 going on 25. Do the writers really think the general viewing public likes kids to act and speak that way? It's so annoying.

My favorite Michelle moments were from when Stephanie and DJ put the closet bar thru Danny's wall. Michelle's jaw drops and it's funny in how wooden and overacty it is. She also did it when Minnie ate Joey's sandwich. Later in the same episode when she's trying to keep Danny downstairs and blocks the stairway and says "You can NOT go upstairs!" in a really serious voice.

I also laugh at "Guess what?! Politeness week is OHVORE!"

Hee. Looking back, Teddy was awesome, and Denise had moments as well. Taj Mowry and Jurnee Smollett were so cute and actually acted like children. If only the Olsens had learned something.
"You awe a stwaaange kid."
Apparently Jurnee is filming a movie with a really impressive cast (Eartha Kitt, Anna Deveare Smith, Tracie Thoms - who isn't that well-known but should be), and she appears to be the lead. Good for her.

I don't mind Stephanie picking on Kimmie, because Stephanie was supposed to be kind of bratty, but who the hell is entertained by Danny and Jesse picking on Kimmie? They're grown-ass men! She's eleven! That's nasty!

It is so funny how everyone here hates Michelle!! My dad used to ask me change the channel whenever Full House was on cause he couldn't stand that "bratty goober"!! I myself was a little bit bratty so I made him watch...haha he still hates this show!

Watching one of the Ranger Joe eps right now, and I was wondering, why are Michelle's friends/classmates a part of the show? Normally a show like that would hire child actors. I can understand Michelle getting into it 'cause she's Ranger Joe's niece. Those kids were so fuckin' annoying the way they'd shriek the Ranger Joe "song."

For some reason, Nicky and Alex remind me of Jekyll and Hyde.

Ha, ha, I SO agree with that about the annoying delivery of "RANGER JOE"
which was always 'sung' in the key of ... Q... or some other non-musical note. I remember there was some cheesy local show called "Ranger Charlie and Roscoe" that was sort of like "Ranger Joe." There was also some rip-off on another channel, and I know the rip-off show got their child audiences from schools (I remember some kids from my school going, you see). So I suppose it's possible for stupid "Ranger Joe" to have used normal kids, but still.... why were they always the same ones?

I also loved Teddy because he was going to make Michelle sleep in the kitchen with the dog.

That is all.

Hee, was he really? When was that? I can't believe I would forget such an awesome moment of canon Michelle-bashing.

When Michelle called Jesse "Uncle Tattletale" and ran away to Teddy's house, he told her they had no more rooms and she'd have to sleep with the dog. It was great!

Haha, that's awesome. Glad to know that there was at least one person who didn't think every little problem Michelle had was the Worst Thing Ever To Happen To Anyone Ever.

Shit, I really have to say that I think Teddy is the best actor to ever be on this show. That little boy had charisma. I know he had a show some years back [Smart Guy] and appears on Disney sometimes but it's a shame he's not a bigger star. I wonder if he [it's Tahj Mowry, right?] ever has contact with Mary-Kate and Ashley anymore? I bet not.

In that episode where Michelle runs away to Ted's house, of course when Michelle shows up, Ted's family is sitting in the livingroom, having sooo much fun playing some cardboard game. That's what all families do in their sparetime.

There's an Indian version of Full House on one of the Indian channels my parents get! Check it out. It has English subtitles, but I wasn't really paying much attention. The episode was something about writing a jingle. Weird. I wonder if there are any other Full House copycats out there.

Dammit! Michelle made me laugh today. I hate when that happens!

It was during the "Tanner Family Fun Day" episode when they went to that seafood place. Stephanie had ordered octopus, but she didn't want it and put it on Michelle's plate. Michelle pushed it away and said, "Ew gross! Kill it, Daddy!" I guess I laughed because it seemed like something a REAL child would say.

Why did I never notice that these people are always lined up? Whenever the girls come into a room, they line up. Either tallest to shortest, side by side, single file, or staggered. Would it have been that hard to shoot the scene with one of them on the couch?

I saw one of the Olsen twins at Bungalow 8 (a club in NYC) last week. They are SOOOO short... like 4 feet something. Short and skinny. Anyway, the girl went right to the front of the bathroom line like it was nothing. HATE!

This made me laugh so hard!!! Stupid bitch.

I hate Michelle just as much as everyone, but then I re-watch them and I think "Aw man, how can I hate her? She's just a kid." And I feel bad.

I love "No fun, no fun, looking at the waaallll." the one time Danny punished her. ('Course it lasted all of five minutes.)

You don't have to feel bad for hating Michelle, or maybe my view of little kids is jaded by now... but I don't feel bad at all for hating her.

Kinda weird that he's got his own set of always together twin sisters. Tia and Tamara Mowry from Sister, Sister. They're pretty much like Mary-Kate and Ashley (lived together, went to the same college, I don't think they've ever worked separately) except they don't cling to each other in photographs. Plus nobody's really ever heard of them, so they seem to have turned out normal.

OT-Tamara is on Strong Medicine /OT


I liked Teddy and Aaron the best out of the younger kids. I remember when Aaron showed up on an episode of Roswell once. Scared the shit out of me cause in my mind he never grew up

WuhwuhwuhwuhWAIT. He was on ROSWELL?! Which episode?

Wasn't Aaron on an episode of Smallville, as well? I still remember him from Kindergarten Cop: "Boys have a penis; girls have a vagina." Word, gracie: in my head, he hasn't grown up either.

I went to a Shins concert back in April, and the opening band was an awesome one from New Zealand, called The Brunettes. They rocked the house, and had a real cool B-52s feel to them. Anyhoo, their closing song? Don't know the name, but it sounded cool. But then the whole band (all 7 of them) turned around, while my friend and I were going, "What are they doing?" They turn back and they--along with two other guys who came onstage--put on Michelle masks (from the FH days, perhaps aged 8 or something) and started singing "Mary-Kate and Ashley...Mary-Kate and Ashley..." It was way creepy.

Yeah, Aaron was a great child actor. Miko Hughes looks exactly the same to me, but obviously older.

Funny, I seem to like the kids that aren't actually main characters more than the regular [save for Stephanie in the early seasons, she grew annoying later though].

I hate Michelle. Glad I'm not alone. The Yankee doddle episode is on. Damn the kid who plays Derek is talented. Is he doing broadway now? At the age of 6 or 7 and he sings like that? It wouldn't surprise me. I love Teddy. I love all her friends. Even Aaron. Who was a pest. I just found it funny. Unlike Michelle, I just wanted to kick her arse. Ewww... Ew... Ew... Ew... Ew... Is it just me or is Danny in a tub with Nickie and Alex very disturbing. Ewwww.....

(snip)

At least Tahj is more likeable & smarter than his 2 stupid sisters Tia & Tamera.

Why do I feel sorry for Stephanie everytime that I watch this sucky show?

Because Michelle was OMG SO ADORABLE and all the family's love and concern went to her. Ever notice that Stephanie didn't get or do anything special at Jesse and Becky's wedding party? Or the infamous Disney World episodes? (Yes, Stephanie got to be the princess at the end of the day, but only after The Great Michelle had her reign over everyone) Too bad things didn't go the way the cast thought they would, with Jodie being the breakout star. Almost anything would have been better than what Dualstar did with the Olsens during/after Full House.

Also, when Stephanie became a teenager, they just ended up recycling most of DJ's storylines, which made her character boring, unlike the earlier seasons. It was also lame how they tried to make the Stephanie/Gia/Michelle bantering like DJ/Kimmy/Stephanie. It just didn't work, and it made Gia and Michelle seem awfully stuck-up to each other. Their exchanges didn't have the humor Stephanie and Kimmy had.

In short, I feel sorry for Stephanie as a character. So much glory taken away by the Olsen twins, who weren't even cute! What was the attraction to her?

Am I the only one who thought DJ and Steve were awfully serious to be in high school? He was always at their house, he tracked them down in Disneyland, he knew all of their business... It was almost like they were married.

Part of me also disliked the relationship because of the gratuitous kissing scenes. Maybe they put those there for the teenage romantics, but it grossed me out.

Today was the Olsen Twins 19th Birthday.

Well as former NBA star Derrick Coleman used to say: Well Whoop-Dee-Damn Doo!

Poor Stephanie.

Ah, a child/teen star reaches the age of nineteen. You know what that means, kids! Crash! Burn! Cocaine!

Or, they develop an eating disorder which they vhemently deny.......

oh wait



Guess the Olsens are ahead of their time.



*ahem*

WE'RE HUMAN! WE'RE PUDDING! HUMAN PUDDING!

Nope that bothered me too. I always figured they intended for DJ to follow in her parents footsteps and get married really young. I mean wasn't Danny supposed to be turning 30 the first year the show was on the air which meant DJ must have been born when he was around 19-20?

Anyway that's a pretty common theme on lots of sitcoms though isn't it? The teen dream romance that lasts forever (but of course is never consumated - well except on Roseanne) and the kids always seem to end up getting married. Yeah, that is so real life - sheesh.

Michelle was an annoying monster who acted repulsively at Disneyworld. She did not deserve to be the princess.

Nevertheless, wasn't Stephanie in MIDDLE SCHOOL during that episode? If so, she did not deserve to be standing in line.

No. I thought the kissing scenes were remarkably clean if they were that committed, but I don't think they were unusually into each other. Couples I knew were like that. And I do know of about ten marriages still holding up and happy that were highschool sweethearts. Most are my parents' age but at least one I can think of is about DJ/Steve's age (i.e. just a few years older than me)

Well, I can at least give the Olsens enough to say they were actually cuter as little kids, opposed to how they are now. At least they weren't anorexically skinny, with all the boho clothes literally hanging off them.

This always bothered me too! It just seems so unlikely that Danny Tanner would be the type to have a kid right outta high school. I don't know why, but it was always so jarring in my mind- Danny a father @ 19/20.

I think they said on a couple of occasions that Danny and Pam eloped right after high school, and D.J. was born when they were about 19, which is rather young, yes, but they were married and apparently in La-La-Land... They've given clues about his age here and there throughout the show (his 30th birthday the year D.J. was 10; he and Joey going to their college reunion the year D.J. was 13; etc.).

I need you to settle a debate for me!

Was there ever an episode where Joey accidently put "magic mushrooms" that he found in someone's coat pocket in the pasta? I have a friend who insists this happened, but I can't for the life of me remember.

Thanks!

I heard that one. It was the same episode that one of the girls heard a ridiculous story and, being gullible, believed it and posted a question about it on the internet. No, that never happened! Your friend is full of crap or is just nuts.

This happened in A Very Brady Sequel.

My friend had a very vidid memory of this and I insisted that there was no way it could be.

Your answer makes a lot of sense and will easily settle this debate. Thank you!

Tim Matheson rocked that scene. That was great.

Even though everyone here knows that the series finale wasn't a true finale, there is one clue that shows that this was originally a season finale:

If it was a true series finale, someone (most likely Michelle) would have used the term "full house" in the very last line of the show. Similar to when the very last line in the Happy Days finale was "To happy days".

Is it bad that I can't bring myself to finish watching my S1 DVDs and have since put them up on eBay? I'm sick of hearing about MK&A every time I turn around, and since the story came out about John Stamos letting his friend sleep with that girl when the girl thought it was JS, I can't stand to look at him anymore. Ugh.

Yeah, it's a pretty sleezy thing to do, but if you're willing to sleep with someone because you think they're a C list celeb, you pretty much put yourself at risk for a variety of things.

What got me about that John Stamos story was that he actually admitted to it. Why would he do that? It's such disgusting behaviour (whether the woman put herself at risk for a variety of things doesn't change the fact that him and his friend pulled an asshole move imo).

IIRC she was 10 or 11 so 4th or 5th grade.

Yeah, she would have been 10-11 in that episode.

I might start buying the boxsets once they start releasing more of them. Why am I obsessed with this show?

ETA: Stephanie looked MUCH better without bangs, like in the Disney World episodes.
