- What is this?
- In San Francisco. All right.
- This reminds me of Family Matters for some reason.
- Oh, wait. I might know what this is.
- Is this Full House?
- (gasps) Full House?
- Oh, Fuller House.
- Fuller House.
- Yes! Fuller House! Dude, I'm so excited about this!
- "February 26."
- This makes me sad.
- Aw, the set still looks the same.
- See, they're showing the house and everything.
Like, this means nothing to me.
- "Life is..." (gasps) (surprised) No!
- Wait, are you serious?
- (D.J. Tanner) Gosh, it feels good to be back.
(dog barks) - Is this Air Buds?
- (Stephanie Tanner) I'll grab little Tommy.
- Don't hate me, but I never watched Full House.
- (Uncle Jesse) Max, the hair, huh?
- (Uncle Joey) Yeah, Max, cut it out. - This doesn't feel right.
- (little boy) Cut it out.
- (Danny) Jackson, can you watch your brother?
- My life will be full.
- (another boy) Yeah, yeah, I got him. - ...er. (chuckles)
- (Kimmy) DJ, you don't need movers. You got us.
- ♪ Won't take nothing but a memory ♪
- (Danny) Welcome home. - ♪ From the house that ♪
- I'm so happy.
- Good job, Netflix. Good things come from Netflix.
- I'm so ready for this. You have no idea.
- What? ♪ (music concludes) ♪
(confused) What was that?
- Oh, I'm happy. That's nice.
- I'm sad they didn't show anybody though.
♪ (funky theme music) ♪
- Oh. Now they're showing everyone.
- Who is that?
- Okay, it's all of them.
- Oh my god, Joey.
- Hello, John Stamos.
- Oh, Bob Saget.
- They're so old.
(overlapping chatter)
- Okay, I still don't know what this is. I'm completely lost.
- This is so crazy, and they have kids now of their own.
- They really don't want you to see anything about this show.
- This is great. I found a new season to watch.
- So cute. I hate how they're so short though.
That's all they show. I want to see more.
♪ (punk rock music) ♪
- (Finebros) All right, so what did we just show you?
- Absolutely no idea.
I thought it was Air Buds, 'cause I saw the dog, but I guess not.
- The trailer for Fuller House.
- Fuller House.
- The Fuller House promo!
- Fuller House, the sequel to Full House.
- (Finebros) These were teasers for Fuller House,
the new show that's reviving the old sitcom.
- Okay, I've heard of Full House, but I had no idea.
I've never seen it.
- (Finebros) Did you ever watch the original Full House?
- No, and everybody's like, "What? You don't watch Full House?"
- I've seen bits and pieces of it.
I haven't seen any full episodes.
- Yes, I have.
John Stamos, his character was pretty great.
- Jesse, John Stamos, is bae.
- DJ and Steve original OTP. I love them so much.
- I used to watch it,
'cause they showed it a lot on Nick at Nite.
- Probably started Nick at Nite.
I just made a bunch of people feel old
by telling them that that was on Nick at Nite when I was a kid.
- (Finebros) So the plot of the original Full House
is that Danny Tanner's wife dies,
and then he gets his brother-in-law Jesse and his friend Joey
to come help him raise his three daughters.
- The plot of Fuller House is that DJ, the oldest daughter,
her husband dies,
and gets her sister Stephanie and her friend Kimmy
to come take care of her kids. - Oh. How original, Fuller House.
- Dude, this girl does not have good luck.
Her mom dies and then her husband dies?
- That's sad. Why did her husband have to die?
Why do people have to die?
- (Finebros) Why do you think the producers
chose to make the plots so similar?
- Probably 'cause people don't like change.
- People don't like change, man.
Even though we need it, we don't like it.
- It's what sells.
It's what everyone liked about the original show.
- They could've come up with something better.
That's literally exactly what the plot is, except for with girls.
- It was such a good show. Just leave it there, you know?
You're just gonna ruin it.
- Yes, it is identical to the original story line.
But it's a story line that we love.
- (Finebros) Does it ruin the old Full House at all though
that when you watch it now, you know, oh, DJ--
when she goes her, her husband's gonna die?
- (stammers) Well, huh. I didn't think of it that way.
- That's sad. That's weird.
- It makes it pretty sad that,
oh yeah, all the suffering her dad went through--
she's gonna have to go through it.
- That's a terrible thing to think. But at the same time,
you're just like, "That's gonna be a good sitcom."
- (Finebros) So almost everyone is coming back for Fuller House
except for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. - Oh, they're not?
- (in disbelief) Wait. What?
Why would they not want to be a part of the most amazing sitcom
in the universe?
- (Finebros) Why do you think they decided not to do the show?
- Well, I mean, obviously the show was somewhat a long time ago.
And they all have their own careers now.
- I think they're just being pretentious,
and they don't want to come back.
- Maybe it's just 'cause, you know, when a famous sports player
will retire, they'll just hang up the jersey.
- They want to be known for something other than Full House.
- It'd be a good thing if they were in it,
because they're in the original.
So how could they not be in the new show?
- (Finebros) Does it take away from the show at all
that there's no Michelle Tanner?
- Yeah. They were a big part of it. They, like, made the show.
- It's impressive how many people they've managed to bring back.
You don't expect them to have every single cast member.
- (Finebros) So we now have some pictures showing you
the cast from 30 years ago, when the show started,
to now what they look like today.
- (excitedly) Before and after? (gasps deeply) Yes!
- (Finebros) First, DJ, Stephanie, and Kimmy.
- Aw.
- Oh my god.
They're adults!
- DJ looks the same.
- Kimmy kind of looks the same.
- Stephanie looks different.
She grew up a lot.
- (Finebros) And then Danny, Jesse, and Joey.
- Wow, they got old.
- Oh my gosh, Joey looks so old!
- Danny Tanner.
He did not age correctly.
- Holy crap! His hair!
A mullet. Not the best choice.
- Jesse looks the exact same. I don't like that he doesn't age.
- (Finebros) The show also had a lot of catchphrases.
- Oh man.
"You got it, dude." That's the one I remember.
- (Finebros) Why don't you think there's catchphrases
in shows today, when shows like Full House and other '90s shows
would always have catchphrases? - Because we're so lame now!
- Maybe it's 'cause they take themselves more seriously.
- Everyone in today's world is so critical of everything.
So anything cheesy, they'll just be like,
"Oh, that's too cheesy. I don't want to watch this."
- A catchphrase is like one of those things where,
when you hear it, you remember the show.
I don't know why shows wouldn't have catchphrases today.
- (Finebros) So are there catchphrases
in the shows that you're part of? - Yeah!
I remember one line I said was, (snootily) "Like, duh!"
And they brought it back a few times on Bunk'd.
- (Finebros) So Full House dealt with serious issues
but mostly was a lighthearted show,
famous for resolving the episode's problem at the end
with cheesy dialog and cheesy music.
Do you consider Full House to be cheesy?
- It's not cheesy as much as it's not showing you real problems.
- The cheesiness is just the '90s.
That's just how things were back then.
- It's human about what it does.
It's not trying to be dark or gritty.
I find it endearing.
- No one likes real life. Real life sucks.
We like the cheesy stuff,
when it all's supposed to get better at the end.
TV shows nowadays don't have that same kind of feeling to it.
- (Finebros) So finally, what do you think
is appealing to people so much to have a show like Full House
come back when it's been gone for so long?
- People can't get over '90s nostalgia, man.
- "Nostalgia" is the one word.
People love just to reminisce about their past.
- I think it's stupid, to be honest.
It's just like, leave it in the past.
It was really good in its time.
- It's really cool, because you grow up with these people,
and you have so many memories with them.
And you get them back, and it's like you're seeing an old friend
for the first time in years.
- If people grew up with the show,
it becomes a part of their life.
But then when they see it go away,
it's kind of like a little part of them dies.
So when they see it come back,
that's when they get really excited and everyone's just frantic
and like, "Oh, we all have to meet up somewhere
and watch this show, because this was our childhood."
- (Finebros) So do you hope that, decades from now,
you will be asked to come back for the revival
of any of the shows that you were part of as a child?
- I would love to do that. I think that would be awesome.
When the show ends, it's just like, that's it.
Like, there's no more episodes, and we just freeze them in time.
We always think, what will happen
to our characters in the future?
We want to know.
