'''''Full House''''' is<!-- Do NOT change to "was" per WP:TVLEAD --> an American television [[sitcom]] created by [[Jeff Franklin]] for [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]]. The show is about the recently widowed father [[Danny Tanner]] who enlists his brother-in-law [[Jesse Katsopolis]] and childhood best friend [[Joey Gladstone]] to help raise his three daughters, [[List of Full House and Fuller House characters#D.J. Tanner|D.J.]], [[Stephanie Tanner|Stephanie]] and [[Michelle Tanner|Michelle]], in his [[San Francisco]] home.

==Plot==
After the death of his wife Pam, sports anchor Danny Tanner recruits his rock musician brother-in-law (Pam's younger brother), Jesse Katsopolis, and stand-up comedian Joey Gladstone, his best friend since childhood, to help raise his three young daughters in [[San Francisco]]—D.J., Stephanie, and Michelle. Over time, the three men, as well as the girls, bond and become closer to one another.

In season two, Danny is reassigned from his duties as a sports anchor by his television station to become co-host of the morning show, ''Wake Up, San Francisco'', and is teamed up with Nebraska native Rebecca Donaldson. Jesse and Rebecca ("Becky") eventually fall in love and get married in season four. In season five, Becky gives birth to twin sons, Nicholas ("Nicky") and Alexander ("Alex").

==Production==

===Casting===
[[File:Full House (Original pilot).jpg|thumb|[[John Posey (actor)|John Posey]] as Danny Tanner in the unaired pilot (shown with Sweetin and Cameron as Stephanie and D.J.)]]
The producers' first choice to play the character of Danny Tanner was [[Bob Saget]]. Saget was not available to appear in the [[television pilot|pilot]] due to his commitment as an on-air contributor to [[CBS]]'s ''[[The Morning Program]]''. The producers instead cast actor [[John Posey (actor)|John Posey]] to play Danny. Posey only appeared in the show's unaired pilot; which is included on the DVD release of Season 1.

[[John Stamos]]'s character was originally named Jesse Cochran; Stamos reportedly wanted his character to better reflect his Greek heritage, so producers decided to change the character's surname to Katsopolis (beginning with season two).

To comply with [[Child labor laws in the United States|child labor laws]], twins [[Mary-Kate Olsen]] and [[Ashley Olsen]] were cast to alternate in the role of Michelle during tapings. The girls were jointly credited as "Mary Kate Ashley Olsen" in seasons two through seven because the producers did not want audiences to know that the Michelle character was played by twins. The sisters occasionally appeared together in [[dream sequence|fantasy sequences]]. ''Full House'' was one of the few shows on TV where a baby character grew up in front of the cameras, with viewers witnessing all the development stages of the twin actresses.<ref name="latimes ca-4995"/> Saget recalled he would often get complaints from the child actors' moms because he wouldn't watch his language while on stage.<ref name="people vol-53-no-25"/> [[Jodie Sweetin]] was spotted in a guest spot on the show ''[[Valerie (TV series)|Valerie]]''.<ref name="people vol-53-no-25"/> [[Lori Loughlin]] was hired in 1988 for a six-episode romance plot with Uncle Jesse but ended up staying until the end of the show.<ref name="people vol-53-no-25"/>

All seven of the original cast members remained with the show through its entire eight-year run, with five characters added to the main cast along the way. D.J. ([[Candace Cameron Bure|Candace Cameron]])'s best friend Kimmy Gibbler ([[Andrea Barber]]) was a recurring character in seasons one through four, who was upgraded to a regular in season five. Loughlin's character Rebecca Donaldson originally appeared for six episodes in season two; producers decided to expand her role and made her a regular the following season. After marrying Jesse, they have twins Nicky and Alex, who make their debut in season five. As babies, the children were played by Daniel and Kevin Renteria, and in season six, the roles of the twins were succeeded by Blake and Dylan Tuomy-Wilhoit. The last main character added was Steve Hale, who was D.J.'s boyfriend in seasons six and seven. He was played by [[Scott Weinger]].

===Taping===
The series was created by [[Jeff Franklin]] and executive produced by Franklin, along with Thomas L. Miller and Robert L. Boyett. The series was produced by Jeff Franklin Productions and [[Miller-Boyett Productions]], in association with [[Lorimar-Telepictures]] (1987–1988), [[Lorimar Television]] (1988–1993), and then by [[Warner Bros. Television Studios|Warner Bros. Television]] (1993–1995) after Lorimar was folded into Warner Bros.' existing television production division.

Although the series was set in San Francisco, the sitcom itself was taped at the [[Warner Bros.|Warner Bros. Studios]] in Los Angeles. Outside of certain excerpts in the opening title sequences, including [[Alamo Square Park]]'s [[Painted Ladies]], the only episode to have actually been taped in San Francisco was the first episode of season eight, "Comet's Excellent Adventure". There were also a few episodes which were filmed on-location elsewhere, most notably [[Hawaii]] in the season three premiere "Tanner's Island", and at [[Walt Disney World resorts|Walt Disney World]] for the two-part sixth-season finale "The House Meets the Mouse".

The series experienced heavy turnover with its writing staff throughout its run. The first season in particular had at least three writing staff changes, with Lenny Ripps (who remained with the show until the early part of the fourth season, by then serving as a creative consultant) and Russell Marcus being the only writers surviving the changes through the entire season. Show creator and executive producer Jeff Franklin was the only writer to remain with the series throughout its entire eight-season run (Franklin also wrote and directed several episodes during the first five seasons). [[Marc Warren (TV producer)|Marc Warren]] and [[Dennis Rinsler]] joined the series' writing staff in the second season as producers and remained with the show until its 1995 cancellation; Warren and Rinsler took over as head writers by season five and assumed [[showrunner|showrunning]] duties as executive producers for the sixth season to allow Franklin to focus on ''[[Hangin' with Mr. Cooper]]'' (''Full House'' served as ''Cooper''{{'}}s lead-in when the former aired on Tuesday nights during the [[1992–93 United States network television schedule|1992–93 season]]).

===Theme song===
The show's [[Theme music|theme song]], "Everywhere You Look", was performed by [[Jesse Frederick]], who co-wrote the song with writing partner Bennett Salvay and series creator Jeff Franklin. Various instrumental versions of the theme song were used in the closing credits; the version used during seasons three through eight was also used in the opening credits in some early syndication runs, although the song was almost always truncated to the chorus for broadcast. Seasons one through five used a longer version of the theme song. In [[Broadcast syndication|syndicated]] airings, the line "you miss your old familiar friends, but waiting just around the bend" replaced the lines starting with "how did I get to livin' here, somebody tell me please..." (after [[Freeform (TV channel)|ABC Family]] acquired the series in 2003, it became the first television outlet to air the long versions of the theme since the series' [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] run, which were included only in select episodes from the first five seasons, whereas the full version was used in most episodes during those seasons). [[Hallmark Channel]] reruns have used four different cuts of the theme song, including the full version.

===Cross-marketing===
ABC used the show to launch other family sitcom hits throughout the early 1990s on Fridays and other evenings such as ''[[Home Improvement (TV series)|Home Improvement]]'', ''[[Family Matters]]'' and ''Hangin' with Mr. Cooper''.<ref name="latimes ca-4995"/>

The actor [[Dave Coulier]] sold the Mr. Woodchuck puppet he made on the show to the toy store [[Toys "R" Us]].<ref name="latimes ca-4995"/>

==Episodes and ratings==
{{Main|List of Full House episodes}}
''Full House'' originally aired on Fridays from September 1987 to August 1991, which spanned the show's first four seasons, and later became the flagship program of ABC's newly launched [[TGIF (TV programming block)|TGIF]] block in September 1989. The show was briefly moved to Tuesdays during the 1987–88 season and then aired twice a week on Tuesdays and Fridays for a few months in order to help the series build an audience. It remained on Fridays permanently for the next three seasons, as the show's ratings increased. ''Full House'' was moved to Tuesdays full-time for season five and remained there until the series ended in 1995. While the show's first season was not very successful, finishing 71st that year, mostly because it was a new series placed in an 8 p.m. [[Eastern Time Zone|Eastern]] timeslot (most freshman series start out in protected time slots preceded by successful lead-ins), the show quickly became popular during its second season as it was placed immediately following the established hit show ''[[Perfect Strangers (TV series)|Perfect Strangers]]'' (which was also produced by Tom Miller and Bob Boyett). From season three onwards, it was ranked among [[Nielsen ratings|Nielsen]]'s Top 30 shows (a ratings increase which allowed the series to move back to Fridays at 8 p.m.).{{citation needed|date=May 2020}} By the fourth season, the series jumped to the Top 20 and remained there until the seventh season (the series peaked at the top ten during seasons five and six).{{citation needed|date=May 2020}}

In 1995, despite the fact the show was still rated in the top 25, ABC announced that it was canceling the show after eight seasons due to the increasing costs of producing the series. By the end of the show, the average cost of one episode was $1.3 million. Plans to move ''Full House'' to [[The WB]] network fell through.<ref name="latimes ca-4995"/> The one-hour series finale was watched by [[List of most watched television broadcasts|24.3 million viewers]], ranking No. 7 for the week and attracting a 14.6 household rating and a 25 percent audience share.{{citation needed|date=January 2017}}

==U.S. syndication==
Warner Bros. Television Distribution handles the domestic and international syndication rights to the series. During the summer of 1991, reruns of the early seasons began airing in a daily daytime strip on [[NBC]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.curtalliaume.com/nbc_day.html|title=nbc_day|work=curtalliaume.com|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020409024925/http://www.curtalliaume.com/nbc_day.html|archive-date=April 9, 2002}}</ref> Starting in September 1991, Warner Bros.

Josh Jackson wrote in a positive review: "''Full House'': The absolute definition of the 'family sitcom' in the late '80s/early '90s. Unlike the [[Blossom (American TV series)|''Blossoms'']] of the era, ''Full House'' wasn't about the '[[very special episode]]'; it was just wholesome, family friendly entertainment all the time, which has become all the more humorous in the years that followed as former viewers learned just how foul-mouthed Bob Saget could be in literally any other context. This, though, was the television equivalent of [[cotton candy]]: airy, saccharine, and totally insubstantial. Even if you watched a ton of ''Full House'' episodes, I'll bet you barely remember the full plot of any of them."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Jackson |first1=Josh |title=The 80 Best TV Shows of the 1980s |url=https://www.pastemagazine.com/blogs/lists/2014/11/the-80-best-tv-shows-of-the-1980s.html?a=1 |website=Paste |access-date=30 October 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141113003934/https://www.pastemagazine.com/blogs/lists/2014/11/the-80-best-tv-shows-of-the-1980s.html?a=1 |archive-date=13 Nov 2014 |date=11 November 2017}}</ref>

==Reunions==
During Bob Saget's final season as host of ''[[America's Funniest Home Videos]]'', six other ''Full House'' cast alumni (John Stamos, Dave Coulier, Candace Cameron, Jodie Sweetin, Andrea Barber, and Lori Loughlin) reunited on the May 9, 1997, episode (the episode which preceded Saget's final episode as host of that series).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sweetin.com/images/afhv/|title=Full House invades America's Funniest Home Videos – 5/9/97|work=sweetin.com|access-date=February 3, 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120124125225/http://www.sweetin.com/images/afhv/|archive-date=January 24, 2012|url-status=live}}</ref>

I'm not 100% sure, but it would probably take place in the first few years."

In 2012, eight of the ''Full House'' cast members reunited in Los Angeles for their 25th anniversary. Publicists for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen said that they "weren't able to attend, given their work schedules."<ref>{{cite web|last=Krumboltz|first=Mike|title=A 'Full House' reunion|date=September 24, 2012 |url=https://tv.yahoo.com/news/a--full-house--reunion----with-two-vacancies.html|publisher=Yahoo!

On July 19, 2013, the original Jesse and the Rippers (the band which Jesse Katsopolis served as frontman until he was voted out in season 8) reunited on ''[[Late Night with Jimmy Fallon]]''. The group performed a medley of covers including [[the Beach Boys]]' "[[Forever (The Beach Boys song)|Forever]]", [[Elvis Presley]]'s "[[Little Sister (Elvis Presley song)|Little Sister]]", "[[Hippy Hippy Shake]]", and ending with the ''Full House'' theme "Everywhere You Look". Bob Saget and Lori Loughlin made cameo appearances.<ref>{{YouTube|Dor96YnM_qo|Jesse & The Rippers Reunite (Late Night with Jimmy Fallon)}}</ref>

In January 2014, Saget, Stamos, and Coulier appeared on ''Late Night with Jimmy Fallon''. They each reprised their characters, while Fallon dressed in child's pajamas in a bed framed by four gigantic pencils, similar to Michelle Tanner's bed from the show. Saget, Stamos, and Coulier said some of their famous catchphrases from the show, as well as singing "The Teddy Bear" song.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.buzzfeed.com/jordanzakarin/the-men-of-full-house-reunited-jimmy-fallon-o|title=The Men Of "Full House" Reunited To Help Jimmy Fallon With His Nightmares|last=Zakarin|first=Jordan|publisher=Buzzfeed|date=January 30, 2014|access-date=January 30, 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140131021422/http://www.buzzfeed.com/jordanzakarin/the-men-of-full-house-reunited-jimmy-fallon-o|archive-date=January 31, 2014|url-status=live}}</ref> Stamos, Saget and Coulier also appeared together in a 2014 commercial for [[Groupe Danone|Dannon Oikos]] [[Strained yogurt|Greek Yogurt]] (for which Stamos serves as spokesperson) that debuted during [[Super Bowl XLVIII]], days after their appearance on ''Late Night''.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2014/01/23/super-bowl-2014-ads-full-house-reunion-for-dannon-oikos-yogurt/ Super Bowl 2014 ads: "Full House" reunion for Dannon Oikos yogurt] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150511063802/http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/early-lead/wp/2014/01/23/super-bowl-2014-ads-full-house-reunion-for-dannon-oikos-yogurt/ |date=May 11, 2015 }}, ''[[The Washington Post]]'', January 23, 2014.</ref>

All Seasons of ''Full House'' are available on [[Amazon Prime Video]] in various countries and with different languages.

===Book series===
{{unreferenced section|date=October 2017}}
[[List of television series made into books|Books based on]] ''Full House'' are geared toward children primarily between the ages of 8 and 14. Warner Bros., which holds the rights to ''Full House'' and its associated characters, would not permit others to use their characters and selected who could write books based on the television series. The books are based on the ''Silhouette'' romance novels by [[Mills & Boon]]. ''Full House Michelle #7: Summer Rhapsody'' is a Silhouette Special Edition #75 by [[Nancy John]] and Laura O'Neil in February 1983.

The series includes the following:
* ''Full House Stephanie'': These 33 books were written from the [[Narrative mode|point of view]] of the Tanners' middle daughter, Stephanie Tanner. They take place with Stephanie in a different middle school, likely because of a slightly different [[redistricting]] plan compared to the one mentioned in season seven's "Fast Friends". She has different best friends as well, Allie Taylor and Darcy Powell. Though these are book creations, she has known Allie since [[kindergarten]], and there are several places in the first five seasons of ''Full House'' where fans think an unnamed [[Extra (actor)|extra]] could be Allie. This series begins with Stephanie being pressured to join a clique called the Flamingos, by completing a series of dares. She almost does the last one, though she is not sure if she wants to before D.J. catches her trying to steal Danny's phone card. Stephanie explains tearfully what was happening, and D.J. helps her to understand what the Flamingos were really up to: they wanted to use the phone card to call their boyfriends. Stephanie and the Flamingos become fierce rivals. ''Hip Hop Till You Drop'', ''Two for One Christmas Fun'', and ''Ten Ways to Wreck a Date'' are the most popular.
* ''Full House Michelle'': These 40 stories are told from Michelle's point of view. The first 27 feature more of her, and the other Tanners', home life than others, though some focus on events at school, whereas the last 14, the "Michelle and Friends" series, focuses mostly on Michelle and her classmates. Unlike Stephanie, Michelle goes to the same elementary school but is in a different class. Two stories were translated and published in Japan in February 2007. Super special ''My Best Friend is a Movie Star'' came out in September 1996, and along with ''The Substitute Teacher'' and ''How to be Cool'' are the most popular.
* ''Full House Sisters'': These 14 books focus on Michelle and Stephanie's friendship and comical situations that occur between them. The sisters often alternate points of view in the story.
* ''Full House: Dear Michelle'': These four books were published several years after the others stopped being produced. They take place with Michelle in the third grade, where she writes an [[advice column]] for her class paper.
* ''Club Stephanie'': 1997–2001 revival series with Stephanie and her friends.

===Russian adaptation===
In 2006, ''Full House'' was one of a group of Warner Brothers properties licensed to Moscow-based network [[STS (TV channel)|STS]] for adaptation to Russian. The show, ''Topsy-Turvy House'' (Дом кувырком) followed the plots of the American version with changes to accommodate cultural differences. It ran for two seasons, beginning in 2009.<ref>{{cite news|last=Brennan|first=Steve|title=Warner Bros. opens up scripted formats in Russia|url=https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/warner-bros-opens-up-scripted-139072|access-date=September 4, 2015|work=The Hollywood Reporter|agency=Associated Press|date=March 10, 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150924205520/http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/warner-bros-opens-up-scripted-139072|archive-date=September 24, 2015|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|last=Beckerman|first=Marty|title=The Untold Story Of The Bonkers 'Full House' Russian Remake|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/2156179/full-house-russian-version/|access-date=September 4, 2015|work=MTV News|date=May 14, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150818122701/http://www.mtv.com/news/2156179/full-house-russian-version/|archive-date=August 18, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref>
