When it comes to wealth, there’s being rich, where you can live a fairly charmed life in reasonable luxurious comfort and not have to worry too much about your own finances anymore, and then there’s having fuck you money, where you can throw cash around with wanton abandon because you’ve got it literally pouring out of your ears and thus can buy and do pretty much whatever the hell you want.
Netflix has fuck you money.
And as such, they’re doing what they want, whenever they want. To wit, the online streaming giant is now apparently right on the verge of reviving much beloved 90s family sitcom Full House for a full 13 episode “reunion series.”
Why? Because Netflix has fuck you money, that’s why.
The series will apparently run under the title “Fuller House” and centre on Candace Cameron Bure and Andrea Barber, reprising their original roles as D.J. Tanner and her best m8 Kimmy Gibbler.
Original cast members Bob Saget, Dave Coulier and John Stamos would all be in line for sporadic cameo appearances in the series, with Stamos also signed on to take a producers role in the production.
The whole thing is being spearheaded by the original show’s creator Jeff Franklin, with OG EP’s Thomas L. Miller and Robert L. Boyett also coming back on board.
No word yet on whether the production has attempted to reach Mary Kate and/or Ashley Olsen to return to the show, nor has there been any word on if the role of Michelle Tanner would require twin magic on set to accomplish, given that nappy and napping breaks seem like they would be somewhat less of a priority nowadays.
The original Full House series ran for 8 seasons and 192 episodes, debuting in 1987 before being cancelled by the US ABC in 1995 due to rising production costs, despite the show’s continued ratings success at the time.
All your childhood memories are being reborn, my friends. And it’s all because there are a few ordinary people, just like you and me, who now have fuck you money and can do crazy things like this.
It’s a great day for America, everybody!
