    Uncle Jesse Still Has it Going On

    Not that he's the star of the show by any stretch of the imagination. Regular guest appearances for sure.

    But the first episode, in character John Stamos remarks "We all still look good!" and it's true. Everybody looks the same. Well, you know, older in the kids' case. But not like washed up drugged out crazy haired former child stars you sometimes see pictures of.

    It's Still a Family Friendly Show

    The thing that made TGIF and Full House appealing to my whole family sitting and watching together back in the day was the fact we all enjoyed it. The edgy cousin to my biblically minded grandmother, we all enjoyed Full House.

    Fuller House continues the trend of being something everybody in the family can enjoy.

    It's Actually Funny

    A strange thing kept happening while watching Fuller House. A strange noise my wife and I kept making - laughter.

    There are comedy shows on broadcast television, that we enjoy watching, but we never do anything more than blow air out of our nose.

    Fuller House had us guffawing.

    The Kid Actors are Great

    There is a saying in acting "never act with pets or kids" because your performance will be forgotten because of how cute your co-star is'.

    Now, not only are these kids cute, but they're talented. The stand out is young Elias Harger, the middle child. He's hilarious, he has a bright future in front of him.

    The Nostalgia of the Old Set is Too Real

    The fact that they faithfully recreated the set to look like it did all of those years ago makes it feel like home just by looking at it on TV! I mean, seriously, I expected the TGIF theme song to start playing at any moment.

    I loved the fact they addressed the nostalgia at one point with an episode that featured the couch.

    Lots of Singing and Dancing Routines

    These actors and actresses aren't just talented perfomers of the dramatic arts they're also pretty good at singing and dancing. Don't be surprised to hear Stephanie sing a song, or see Kimmie and DJ bust a move.

    Each Episode Has its Own Lesson

    From coming together as a family to lessons in responsibility, each episode has that classic feel that the old Full House had. They overcome problems as a family with love/dancing /lucha libre wrestling.

    It's Better Than Just About Everything Else on Broadcast TV

    Seriously, while watching the show my wife and I kept saying between the writing and acting there's nothing better on TV!
