Show Summary

Full House ran for eight seasons and was one of the few primetime sitcoms to have more than 190 episodes. Early in its run, Full House received awful reviews for being too "cheesy," but it still became a popular favorite with audiences, even as the reviews remained negative throughout its run.

    Corny show, but I kinda like it. hide show

    Even though I own every episode on DVD, I've got to admit that it's not one of the better shows to run in the nineties. The show could be very predictable, and most of the jokes they used were cheesey. And a few of the plots could be a little babyish sometimes but there were some out there that were pretty OK. I had some problems with this show. For one thing they included too many touching moments and it's like in almost every episode, it involved hugging and some comforting words from Danny. Another thing I didn't like was Michelle. Sure, she was cute, don't get me wrong, but she was obsessed and overused. Worst of all, the writers made her such a brat. Sometimes the girls (all of them) could be brats. And this show had sometimes acted like an advice giving show cause in just about every one, Danny gave obvious advice to his daughters. But, I will admit, Full House was a funny show even if the jokes could be corny. And I wish the series finale would've been better, but all in all, this was a good, but cheesey, show. Final Grade: 75/100.

    Don't let nostalgia cloud your mind...this show was horrible hide show

    This has to be one of the worst sitcoms that I have ever seen in my life. In fact, I don't even know why this is called a sitcom. It wasn't even funny. Every episode was like this: One of the girls does something bad, the dad has a talk with the girl, this awful sappy music plays, the dad says that he loves the girl anyways and then he gives her a hug and the audience goes "Aww!". Come on, where is the comedy in that? I watch sitcoms to laugh, not to be preached at. If this show was around nowadays, it probably wouldn't even last a whole season. Not to mention, the acting was horrible, the writing was juvenile and the plots were pretty much the same in every episode. Quite frankly, if you seen one episode, you have seen them all. If you are under 12, you might like this show. Other than that, avoid this like the plague.

This show doesn't have those adult comedy alot of people watch and thats another thing i love about this show! Although the sad stuff annoyes me sometimes since i kinda hate drama and sad parts this show makes it better! This show also has heartwarming scenes and everday things in this one show and im not suprised this show is so popular it deserves to be popular!

    9.5 Superb

    A good show, especially in the later seasons. hide show

    Full House used to be a show I hated. When I saw my sister watching it, I just took about 20 seconds to see what it was, and then I announced that I hated it. But I saw her watching it again the next day. I decided to just watch the whole episode and see what the big deal was (the episode was A Pinch for a Pinch), and I enjoyed it. Of course, I have shows that I like more than this one, but Full House is still a good family sitcom. Heck, not every sitcom lasts 8 seasons with 192 episodes, insanely large merchandising (books, dolls, a board game...etc.), and so many fans.

    Now, here's where I'll judge it in different areas:

    Family entertainment: A-

    Full House does a good job of keeping the family entertained. The first two seasons, however, don't really appeal to me as much in terms of humor (it seems the majority of humor is supplied by cuteness), yet the show is almost good enough to make me laugh in the 8th season.

    Episodes like Sea Cruise (my least favorite) can get boring while episodes like Michelle Rides Again glue you to the TV.

    Sound: B+

    The music can sometimes be a little repetitive, and thus mildly annoying, but overall, the sound quailty for Full House is quite good.

    Video: A

    Good picture quality, indeed. Not much else to say, other than that, though.

    Moral Values: B-

    Well, for a family sitcom, you'd expect moral values, right? They sure did a very dang good job of having those in the first half of the show. But you'll notice, as the show went on, the lessons either weren't as strong, didn't make sense, or just weren't there.


    Final words:

    If you like family entertainment, you've come to the right place.

    Final Show Grade: A-
