“Full House” Revival Considered

“Full House” Revival Considered

Warner Bros. TV is reportedly taking into consideration a revival of the “Full House” with the original cast of the show. The possible return of the show is lead by John Stamos, who played Uncle Jesse on the show. Together with Stamos are Bob Boyett and Jeff Franklin, the original executive producer and creator of the show.

Among the other cast members who are involved in the revival are Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin, Andrea Baber, Bob Saget and Dave Coulier.

The original cast remained close to each other and some of them have hinted that they are open to a revival of the show. Coulier, Saget and Stamos appeared at the “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon” looking like their characters in the show. Stamos mentioned at “Watch What Happens Live” that a revival of the show was being considered. He revealed that a twist on the sequel was being developed, but they have no idea if the “Full House” revival will come true.

Since another family-friendly show from ABC was revived recently, a revival of the show was not far-fetched due to its popularity. Repeats of the family sitcom reported have a primetime average of around 1.5 million viewers. The show also has a good teen fan base, which is a demographic that was not yet born when the show was cancelled in 1995.

Although the show was part of the Top 25 shows from 1987 to 1995, it was cancelled by ABC due to costs. The staff was offered a pay-cut to allow the show to go on, but it was not enough.

The studio proposed a revival of the show last year, but it did not push through. The proposal included a 90-episode lineup was proposed if the first ten episodes would reach a particular rating. However, with the increasing popularity of the “Full House” on Nick at Nite, a revival is expected to create interest among the new generation of viewers.
