To you. Doesn't mean it's not doing well (Girl Meets World).

Full House (a little bit too much cheese for me but there IS an audience for it) is actually doing well on Nick@Nite and pulling in around a million viewers a night and it airs a billion episodes in a row. I'd imagine Nickelodeon would be interested. They've been trying to launch sitcoms for a little while now. They tried Scott Baio and now are trying one of the Mowry girls, which seems to be doing better, I guess. Don't watch or follow the ratings for it.

I could see it getting GMW #s if it's done right.

I'd imagine it would focus on Candace Cameron Bure (who is all over the place after Dancing with the Stars ended) and DJ. Kimmy and Stephanie move in with DJ and they raise their kids together, or help one of them raise their kids. It's not too hard to sort of guess due to who is involved in the project. Only so much they can do.

The show isn't for everyone, but it's a very popular show. VERY popular. It only ended on ABC because it was so expensive. The WB nearly picked it up when they were launching.

I find Full House to be one of the worst shows ever created. I can see its appeal to children though, as it was very much geared to kids and tweens.

But damn, as an adult with no children, I could never watch this show. It's beyond corny and unrealistic. Too much of this show can give me a tooth ache with its saccharine nature.

This possible reboot needs to be on Disney or ABC Family, it could never do well on a network TV channel is this current climate.

The only things I ever liked about this show the first time around were Bob Saget, Lori Laughlin, Candice Cameron, sometimes Dave Coulier.

I'm tired of these remakes that never go anywhere and are a cheap cash grab.

Frankly the first one ran too long as it was.

Same. Weren't D.J. and Kimmy in college by the time the show was over? It seems to me that having the oldest child graduate from high school and leave the (full) house was the perfect time in which to wrap things up.

      Thank you very much for the information!!! All the episodes that person sells are the ones which appear or have appeared in youtube, and some have wrong dates.  Due to that, I guess some people, who have rare and inedite episodes, refuse to upload them in internet, because then, others make money. I hope ABC create a place in the net where we can see all the available episodes they must have, as Retro tv did with the Doctors!!!! Retro tv did an awesome job!!!! Have a look :

      Dina was Jack, Ashley and Tracy's mom on Y&R.  Joanna was Lauren Fenmore's mother, played by Susan Seaworth-Hayes.

      The funeral was not onscreen - only the Brooks returning home after the service. Not aware of any available clips.

      I would only add that Sam Ratcliff is frequently named in regards to certain AW comedic turns.  And, we know from Carolyn Culliton (tweet 2024) that Sam & Gary put their heads together & came up with that gorilla.

      Yes, Stacy does this both for early DAYS & early GH. I have written some for her, for DAYS. But just one tiny point & that is that she only deals with DVDs. I realize that is not the point of your posting but it seemed the right thing to clarify. I know that you know that video tapes is past, not present.

      Hahahha I think sleeping with almost all of your daughters's boyfriends and husbands and getting pregnant... definitely gives Brooke the right to top 1 place. Long live the whore of Beverly hills.

      CurlyQGrl has DVDs of some episodes, that they can sell, but that doesn't matter. What is helpful: they describe the scenes on the tapes, so you can read that as recaps without ordering anything. Doesn't really give storylines, though, which is what you asked for.  Here's the links anyhow. full menu https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/menu.html GH page https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/menu.html GH 1960s https://www.angelfire.com/tv/curlyqgrl/gh/eps/gheps1960s.htm

      I would argue that Another World never played "everything" for laughs. Even when there were comedic scenes in some storylines there were other storylines that were not intended as comedy.  You give 1988 as the end point, and Mary was on the canvas from August 1986 to February 1989, so she must have overlapped with the despised laughs you are referring to at least half of the time she was there. I honestly can't recall any real comedy that Mary would have been part of. I don't think she was lighthearted about choosing between two husbands, MJ's prostitution, Kathleen's death, or even her son Scott dating her daughter Cheryl.  I would have said that the amount of comedy depended on the head writer and there was more comedy under Richard Culliton and Gary Tomlin in 1984 than subsequent headwriters. I guess there was an outbreak of more comedy when Cecile kidnapped Cass from his wedding in 1986, but in general the Sin Stalker wasn't presented as funny, Mitch's return wasn't funny, John's arrival wasn't funny, Reginald wasn't funny. The tone was serious even if the plots verged on the ludicrous. And maybe that's what you mean -- but I would make a distinction between intentional comedy and storylines I can't take seriously for other reasons.
