Actually, since I bought the first two seasons on DVD I've noticed that Michelle was pretty much thrown in our faces from the very beginning. I listened to commentary from Jeff Franklin on one of the episodes and he literally spent over half the episode talking about Michelle/Olsens and how great they were! He almost said not one word about the episode he was recapping, it was really pointless for the most part.

Does anyone know which episode it is where Stephanie has her fantasy where everyone is singing and dancing about how great she is? What season is that and the name of the episode if anyone knows? That, for some reason, was my favorite as a kid. Is it the same as the Mo-town Philly dance episode?

Do you mean the "She's Dancing" number? If so, I think it's the "Gotta Dance" episode in season 5 and yes it's the Motown Philly one. Heh...Stephanie really has an awful singing voice.

It was Danny fantasizing about her dancing though, not Stephanie herself. You can find that episode on YouTube, posted by fullhouse16. It's a pretty long fantasy sequence - just when you think it ends, it's still going on. I hated that, but to each his/her own.

I actually like it being extended just because when you think it's over, it suddenly switches to Danny going for the high-jump or pole-vault or something. It's not technically random, but it's pretty funny.

The fantasy sequence is pretty funny... especially Becky kicking and dancing around while she's 9 months pregnant.

Thanks! It is definitely one in the same. It's like the 'caffeine pill episode' of "Saved By the Bell" to me - cheesy dance sequence and all. I don't know why but I love it.

Someone on the Wiki site was having too much fun the other day and posted Michelle and Comet got married by a dog preacher and had some kids/puppies. It sounds like some people on the site have too much free time.

I saw part of one today I like a scene of Danny/Joey as boyhood friends and little Jesse running around chasing girls.

I just caught the end of an episode where Uncle Jesse's in a recording session and his band includes a pianist/lead vocalist (himself), 2 guitarists, 1 keytarist, 2 saxaphonists, 1 trumpet player, 1 drummer, 1 bongo player, and 2 backup singers.

Does anyone know where a clip from the "Goodbye Mr. Bear" episode can be found? I think the home video showing the girls their mother was one of my favorite scenes from the entire series, but I can never seem to catch that episode on rerun. Thanks!

The episode where Minnie, Comet's mother, travels all the way from Ohio to have her babies in the Tanners' house was on earlier, which made me realize I hadn't seen it in ages. Is it one of the rarely-shown episodes like the earthquake episode? And why? They also seemed to skip over the episode where Comet gets his name, though I can't remember the main plot of that one...

Stupid question I'm sure, but why was Minnie in Ohio to begin with? Didn't the Tanners find her in San Francisco early in the series run, and didn't Jesse mention that he would like to take the girls over to see both Minnie and the puppies once the owner came to pick her up? Do I really care that much that I'm asking this?

Also, I never realised that Comet wasn't around from the very beginning and that we originally met him as a puppy. Very cool.

I don't think we saw Minnie until that episode. She just showed up at the house and they all liked her. And yes, Jesse promised to take the girls to Ohio to visit a dog they'd known for an hour.

Heh. Remember when Minnie gave birth on Jesse's bed? As they all stood around watching, Jesse commented, "This is the most amazing thing that has ever happened in my bed."

Er, I doubt that. :)

Rather odd and adult moment for a family show.

I LOVED Comet. That's my favorite breed of dog.

I named my own Golden Retriever after Comet, despite my parents protests. That's how much I loved that dog. Also, I was five years old and Full House consumed my life then.

A girl I went to school with named her dog Comet. And it was a small, shaggy black dog.

So the book club that I belong to also sells dvds, and this is their blurb for Full House: The Complete 6th Season 4-dvd Set, which they are selling:



Wonder twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen- I love it so!
And- Michelle is supposed to be age 6/7 in the 6th season, right? Because good gawd did they- what's the word I am looking for where you age someone down? whatever it is, that's what they've done. I remember Michelle always being in dresses, (because my youngest sister for some reason was the same way- child didn't wear a pair of jeans until about the 4th grade, always wearing dresses, and it cracked me up because mom finally got her girly girl daughter), but I never remembered Michelle being dressed so age inappropriately- Michelle on the cover of the 6th season dvd set is wearing this wide collar dress with huge buttons on it and a huge bow in her hair, I would've put the kid's age as 3 years old, tops.

Found this parody on youtube of Michelle dying. It's pretty damn funny.

Michelle Dies.

Hilarious. Thanks for sharing.

Very good. Thanks for sharing.

Edited to remove link.

You know, there are like 12 kids in Michelle's pre-school class, and she's the only one stupid enough to open the birdcage. I'm glad Aaron tried to call her on her shit. He always did, even though he always "came around" in the end.

How old was Michelle supposed to be? I really can't believe that she would take the class pet (especially one that could fly) out of its cage without permission. Even as a toddler she had a sense of entitlement.

What the heck kind of bird was he anyway? He was really cool-looking.

What always bugged me about Michelle was her horrible diction. She mumbled constantly and had about a half-dozen speech impediments. I understand that the twins were young, but come on! I find it hard to believe that there were no speech therapists available. A presumable five-year-old should not be calling herself "Meeshew Wizbif Tano."

I think she was at the age where most kids have that "Give me" mentality, not thinking to ask before they stick their grubby little hands out and grab it for themselves, so I (grudgingly) give her a pass on not asking first before opening the cage. And I suppose she was too young, and therefore probably a little too stupid, to realize that the bird would just fly away instead of hop directly into her hand and sit for story time with her.



Bwah!

And yet, she was more coherent than Nicky and Alex ever were at that age.

Yeah, that's why I asked what age she was. My preschool, intelligently, never had class pets because the youngest kids were two and were obviously not old enough to be around class pets. But by age four-five, I sure as hell knew better than to do something like that, and no one else in my Kindergarten class ever freed the class pet! Although if they had, there likely wouldn't have been much of a problem. We had a turtle.

And, good point, that. Why did none of the "babies" on Full House ever speak coherently? Just bad luck in that department, did the fact that they were twins have something to do with it, or did they mistakenly think it was cute? These are the questions that keep me up at night.

She was three at the time. Just the right age to still be that dumb, I guess.

Deleted- 'cuz it's redundant!

Yes, I know that's why she did it:



We're just pondering if at that age she would be that dumb.

Come to think of it, it's really weird that they would have a flighted bird as a class pet and/or not have some kind of lock on the cage - it's just asking for trouble even if the window is closed.

But even if that's what she thought, it bugs me that she would open the cage without asking or waiting for permission.

Seriously. That's another one of those "writers deliberately defying common sense for the sake of the plot" things, because in real life, I'm pretty sure a preschool class would NEVER have an unclipped bird as the class pet and/or not put a childproof lock on the cage. Of course one of the kids is going to open it!

I saw Bob Saget's comedy act tonight. I am still reeling from the shock of how unfunny it really was. I don't shy away from raunchy humor, as long as it's funny raunchy humor...this wasn't. He was just trying to shock people that Danny Tanner can be dirty, but he didn't add in the funny. My best friend and I went figuring we would just make fun of it because it would be Danny Tanner talking dirty, which it was. However, it was so much worse than we expected. My brother however thought it was great, so it's all in what you find funny. I'm just glad it only cost $5 and lasted about an hour. Halfway through my friend turned to me and asked me when it was going to be over.

Ok, pop quiz: Does anyone remember the "talk" Becky gave to DJ after DJ went all crazy about Kimmie Gibbler's pool party? I remember it involved "The Ugly Duckling" and then Becky suggesting DJ be happy with herself while eating chicken breasts or something.

For some reason this is driving me crazy and they aren't showing that rerun lately it seems. Can anyone help?

Actually, catndahat, I believe the "ugly duckling" thing came from the peptalk that Danny, Jesse, and Joey attempted to give DJ after her first boyfriend dumped her because she wasn't pretty enough. But yeah, I think you're right about Becky giving her a post-eating-disorder peptalk which was basically about how DJ needed to be moderate when dieting instead of just starving herself... Then DJ ended up all happy and cured and balanced and saying that she was going to start by eating salad without salad dressing or something to that effect... Sorry I can't be more helpful, I haven't seen it for years either. :).

agockows, that sucks about Bob Saget's show. It does seem kind of pathetic that he still feels the need to distance himself from his Danny Tanner character in his act. After all these years you'd think he'd have come up with something other than just the shock value of him not being his character. Gee, Bob, the rest of us figured as much when we saw your real name in the opening credits back then.

Wasn't it Danny who gave her the speech that "cured" her? Something about her friends liking her because she was fun to be with not how she looked. I think Becky said it was okay to lose a little weight (before she knew that DJ would develop an "eating disorder") and that she should just eat lean chicken and other suggestions and then DJ said "I'm trying to keep my mind off of food!".

Danny gave D.J. that "Lesson of the Week" talk. Becky merely gave her some advice on low-fat foods, and that was in the middle of the episode before D.J. started starving herself.

That's right! Sorry, my bad. It was totally Danny.

Heh, you'd think I'd remember a miraculously-curing peptalk like that better, huh? :)

My cousin made fun of that episode. Didn't DJ faint ?

Oh yeah, remember it was when they were taking Michelle to the kiddie gym and everyone else did the insane aerobics class but DJ was on the Stairmaster or something for 30 seconds, fainted, and Stephanie freaked out.

The DJ Teen Trauma episodes stick in my head, I guess.. I really remember that one and the one where DJ is alienated by the girls wearing lycra in middle school and had to eat lunch in the phone booth.

Now that we established that this was actually during the episode where DJ's first boyfriend dumped her, I do remember the pep talk (sorry to say). Becky told DJ about a boy she liked who liked blondes, so she dyed her hair with peroxide. Her mom told her not to worry about what a boy thinks of her; that she should just be the best Becky she can be, then made her stand there and list all her good points. Becky then made DJ do the same thing, then told DJ that the guy blew it and she is the best.

That probably did way too much for my nerd rating.

How dare you think D.J. isn't pretty enough for you, Jonathan Brandis! RIP...

Danny definitely gave her the "ugly duckling" talk, and then DJ, horrified, ran away. Becky had overheard the boys talking and I remember her exact quote: "You only give her the ugly duckling talk if it's some other kid!"

The guys gave the "Ugly Duckling" story, Becky reamed them out and told Deej a story about herself when she was younger (don't remember what she said) and then DJ felt better.

For some reason, that episode was kind of corny.

Why should I buy season 6 on DVD? Full House stopped being remotely funny by season 6 (mainly because of you know who.). The Michele & Steve wedding makes me sick, Nicky & Alex absolutely sucked (I'm still wondering why they're even on Full House in the first place.), Jesse getting his diploma in the 6th season was a complete bore fest, the Christmas episode was very nauseating, Disney World episodes were absolute torture, Stephanie wasn't as cute as she used to be, & Michelle was horrible as usual. So overall, I think seasons 6-8 are downright awful & I don't think the DVD versions of those seasons are worth your time & money. I also think season 6 was when that Macaulay Culkin wanna be (Derek) showed his face. Next to Michelle, he is the 2nd person on Full House that I really hate.

Well, the sixth season had the "a door named dad" episode, plus Kimmy's "hash brown cake" sixteenth birthday party.

I liked the later episodes when DJ was older. She was cuter, had boyfriends, styled her hair. She was far more annoying in seasons 1 and 2 when she had weird hair and was uber bratty. Although Michelle gets progressively more annoying as the years pass.

I really wanted to hurt that kid.

Thanks Halfpint Ingals, for the video clip of Mr. Bear and Pam!

I hate the episode with Sid. I can't believe Michelle got to pick and I can't believe she chose the cutout.

That's one of the episodes that I can't watch because it fills me with so much rage. There are a lot of those. And the number increases with each season. I don't think that's a coincidence.

She's such a moron. Another episode that fills me with hatred of Michelle is when she brings home the donkey. And then they sing the Three's Company theme song... OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

What was the name of that utterly annoying young gay boy who hung out with Michelle? (Hey! Michelle was a fag hag! Who knew??) He sang the most cringe-inducing version of "Yankee Doodle Dandy" ever? I'm not implying that I've ever heard a fantastic version of the song...
