So, the show was and isn't for everyone. But I sort of roll my eyes at the 'bad' reviews because it comes off as "the cool thing to do" by trashing the show. It's actually fairly funny and I'm already on Episode 7. Yes, I'm a sick person. It's a rough start, but it starts to flow well later on.

 

It's exactly what a Full House continuation should be. The cheese is there, Stamos hamming the camera is there, it's a nostalgia filled fun time.

 

The pilot/reunion is basically the finale the show should have had.

 

The kids are well cast. Danny Tanner remains a neatfreak with a hot wife. Him and his grandson Max cleaning together is cute. There's a Comet Jr. Jr. and now a Cosmo. Stephanie's still spouting off How Rude! and they capture everything about Joey in the pilot and the episode where he babysits the kids (I think Episode 3).

 

Stamos returns in the second episode with more hamming and winking to the camera, but they capture Jesse as well with his Elvis loving.

 

I'm not seeing any chemistry with them forcing the very good looking John Brotherton on Candace Cameron Bure. It's not working. Meanwhile, Weinger and Bure have instant chemistry again. Steve still carries a torch for DJ and they make it obvious (Steve returns in Episode 7). And they touch on his love for food.

 

They drop a surprising real bomb about Stephanie. But it's a few hugs and they move on, which is fine. But it sets up the character.

 

Andrea Barber slipped back into Kimmy Gibbler like it was nothing. All three women do a good job recapturing their characters. And the love/hate between Stephanie and Kimmy is thankfully still there (and touched on again in Episode 6 ... just throwing this out there: "The Gibbler Gallup"). Soni Nicole Bringas as Ramona is great. She has great timing and does a really good job. And Kimmy's lothario ex Fernando is sort of hilarious at times.

 

Basically if you love Full House, the show captures everything about it and is what a reunion show/continuation should be. JMO. Tons of nods and play on nostalgia.

    • I'm fighting for my life on another board for my husband Brandon and I'll do it here too lmao
    • I don't expect Lois to be the same person she was 25 years ago, but she's definitely lost a lot of what made Lois unique.  It's clear the show doesn't know how to write for her, and the sole purpose of Lois is to hide this Gio secret.  It's a shame she doesn't interact with more of the canvas.  It's a waste of Rena's talents. I like Brook Kerr most of the time.  She can be hit or miss.  I totally get what you are saying about her line readings too.  I honestly think the character really suffers being stuck in the Curtis pairing.  She's much better than Tanisha Harper's Jordan lol.
    • Friday and yesterday's episode is what daytime television should be. The other shows airing could take a page from yesterday's show.  I loved the rage, hurt and anger Nicole unleashed on Ted.  Daphnee should be up for an Emmy nom for these scenes.  It broke my heart to see how Dana had locked Eva out.  I do feel sorry for Eva.    I am still bumfuzzled as to why Leslie/Dana went to the DuPree's and asked them to accept Kat UNLESS Eva is really Kat's twin (and really Nicole and Ted's daughter that maybe they though they lost or an embryo Dana/Leslie stole??) I loved how Anita and Vernon both shot her down.    Ohhh and let me just say Friday and yesterday was the MOST fire I have seen Martin have since the show started.  Maybe Brandon Clayborn is coming into his own with the role finally.    
    • You've been seeing him all along. You just didn't know it was him, I guess.

    • Where to for Dana? She's pissed off the Duprees (most of the cast), alienated her daughter and will she be welcomed by the Have Nots at the diner? Maybe she can befriend Ashley and Derek and liven up their story.
    • Melissa Ordway announced she was moved to recurring back in November but is still credited with the contract cast members.
    • I think of Evan as a smarmy bast*rd. Maybe you'll like that description. You certainly have him pegged correctly since he is just a soldier following "Admiral" Iris's marching orders.  
    • So far the only interest I've seen from Evan to Amanda has been listening to Iris's orders to go and seduce her.  So far he hasn't been successful... but who knows. Amanda is unbearable at times. Entitled, spoiled... idiotic. Iris... so blatantly manipulating her and Amanda takes the bait. But I guess... when she gets in trouble... she'll have a chance to learn. That's what makes these shows so interesting.    Oh, no, don't worry. You haven't ruined a thing. Evan has not been on my radar that much... he was not one of the characters I was caring particularly... so nothing much has been changed for me. I don't think he has the stuff to ruin Rachel's life. He's just a pretty guy that can follow orders. Iris on the other hand... is dangerous.

        P.S Maybe Evan will surprise me. Who knows. 
    • The show has gone back to 10/10 entertainment! I'm glad that I was right in feeling that what were experiencing were growing pains. I'm sure they are not over yet, but I'll know that we always comeback to quality drama. I think it's going to be a hell of ride (in a good way) from this moment on. BTG has that magic that not a lot of shows have. I'll update more... when I'm done catching up.
