After 20 years of releasing no new episodes of Full House, TVLine, a TV-centered website, has announced Netflix might be making a 13-episode spin-off focusing on Candace Cameron Bure as D.J. Tanner and Andrea Barber as Kimmy Gibbler.
John Stamos and Bob Saget are also expected to appear on some episodes.
While Netflix has yet to confirm that this is happening, some Ball State students are excited about the prospect of the return of the show.
Tara Alves, freshman special education major
"I feel like I’m kind of afraid it’ll be a let down, because Full House was so great. I don’t want them to make it all gross and sexual. I have a good feeling about it. It could be awesome if they take the same family values. I don’t know [if it will be good], I think I’ll be disappointed anyway. They certainly can’t get the Olson twins to be on it anymore."
Nicole Bruce, sophomore psychology major
"I think it’ll be really exciting, but it’d be nice if they toned down Kimmy’s personality a bit because she’s really obnoxious. I think it’ll be great, just based on the fact that it is Full House."
Justin Griffiths, junior telecommunications major
"I like what they did with Boy Meets World, so if they did what they did with that, it’ll be fine. I think mixing some of the old cast with that, it’ll be fine. I’ll at least watch the pilot and go from there. It’s hard to say [if it’ll be good], it just depends on how they target it—if it's at 90s kids—yes. For new kids, it’ll be hard to get into."
Emmy Murphy, sophomore telecommunications major
"I’m excited. I think it’ll be different, but it’ll still feel nostalgic. It depends on how it turns out. Some of the kids shows now aren’t good, but if it has the same [90s] feel, it’ll be good. I'll probably watch the first episode and decide if I like it."
