Full House TV Show By Rick Brady At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Full House was a dramatic comedy TV show that aired on ABC for eight seasons and 189 episodes! It was about a father (Danny Tanner, played by Bob Saget) who had lost his wife when she was run over by a drunk driving his car! He simply couldn't care for his three daughters the way that he wanted to because he had to work to support them so he asked his number one pal (Joey Gladstone played by Dave Coulier) and his wife's brother (Jesse Katsopolis played by John Stamos to help him out and ensure that his girls always had someone around who truly cared about them. In the second season, the sweet and beautiful wife of Jesse (Becky Donaldson played by Lori Loughlin) joined the show and offered Danny's girls the mother figure that they so badly needed.

Audiences loved all of the characters on Full House but the one that was definitely most beloved was Michelle Tanner who was just barely over one-year-old when the series began and was nearly nine-years old when ABC took it off the air. It was seeing that character transformed from a baby into a young girl for so many years that made viewers feel like they were a part of the Full House family! Add to the fact that Michelle was played by two twin sister (Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen) and you might see why many fans found Full House irresistible! Mary-Kate and Ashley's mother in real life actually wanted to pull them off the show after the first year in order to give them a "normal" youth. The show's producers must have had nervous breakdowns when they heard that the twins who were responsible for a very significant percentage of Full House's viewership were going to leave! They quickly offered a dramatic increase in the twins salary and mom just couldn't refuse!

The main reason for audiences "sticking around" for the entire eight seasons of Full House was that the characters became almost like real friends and family! Who wouldn't like having a totally devoted father like Danny Tanner or a really cool uncle Jesse or an adopted uncle Joey that you could depend on whenever dad wasn't around? And we actually watched the Full House kids grow up! We first met Michelle Tanner as a 6-month-old baby and watched her grow into a sweet 8-year-old! Steph Tanner matured from a mere 5-years-old into a teenager. D.J. Tanner literally blossomed from a 10-year-old child into a young woman in her last year of high school!

Let us not forget another important Full House character. Becky Donaldson joined the show in the 2nd season as Danny's co-host on his morning TV show and soon began dating Jesse. She brought a much needed female touch to the show providing Jesse (eventually) with a wife, the other guys with a female influence and the Tanner girls with a much needed mother figure. In the 5th season, Becky also gave birth to twin sons and Full House again had baby twins on the show!

After being cancelled by ABC, a brand new network called "The WB" actually wanted to purchase the rights to Full House and keep it on the air! John Stamos was the first to announce that he wouldn't sign for a 9th season. He didn't like being "saved" by a new, minor network and felt he'd rather leave the series with his head held high. Then Candace Cameron said that she wouldn't sign because she wanted to attend college. There wasn't really any desire to go on from the other players either as literally all of the cast and writers refused to sign with the WB.

Well, everything good in life must eventually come to an end! There aren't many shows that grab a viewers' soul like Full House did and fans will eagerly await their next chance at enjoying such a delightful family series!
