Netflix really wants to make itself the best thing that ever happened to television. First, it brought back
Arrested Development. Now, the streaming service is eyeing a reboot of another beloved sitcom from our formative years,
Full House. TVLine
reports that Netflix is "
thisclose" to ordering 13 episodes of
Fuller House, a multi-cam continuation of the beloved show that ran from 1987 to 1995 on ABC.
Per TVLine, the new episodes would focus on the lives of D.J. Tanner (Candace Cameron Bure) and her best friend Kimmy Gibler (Andrea Barber). "Fellow Full House vets John Stamos, Bob Saget, and Dave Coulier are being eyed to make guest appearances, with Stamos having a producer role, as well," TVLine notes. "The project is being shepherded by the original show’s creator, Jeff
Franklin, who will exec-produce alongside Thomas L. Miller and Robert L.
Boyett (both of whom also EP’d the original)."
No word yet whether the most important characters would be returning. We're talking about Michelle and Comet, of course. Also, if this news isn't true, we have one thing to say to TVLine, Netflix, and Warner Bros. (
