Who would think a sitcom about a widower trying to raise his three daughters, along with his
brother-in-law and bumbling best friend, would have become one of the most treasured television
shows of its era?
But that's exactly what happened with Full House, which aired from 1987 to 1995.
In 2016, the show was revived as a Netflix original, Fuller House.
But who didn't come back?
And what has everyone been doing since 1995?
Candace Cameron Bure
Bure, who played eldest daughter D.J. Tanner, has been incredibly busy since Full House
ended.
In 1996, she married former NHL hockey player, Val Bure.
And over 20 years later, the couple is still happily married with three children Natasha,
Lev, and Maksim.
Bure has continued to work steadily, appearing quite frequently in both made-for-tv movies
and network shows including ABC Family's Make It or Break It.
In 2014, Bure joined the cast of Dancing With The Stars, partnering up with Mark Ballas.
The following year, Bure signed on to co-host ABC's long running daytime talkshow, The View.
She then quit the show in 2016, citing the reason as being too busy with other projects,
including Fuller House and her work with the Hallmark Channel.
Jodie Sweetin
Following her on-screen sister's dance-steps, in 2016 Jodie Sweetin, aka "Stephanie Tanner,"
appeared as a contestant on the reality competition Dancing With The Stars.
In 2017, she co-starred in Hollywood Darlings on Pop TV, a show People called an "unscripted
docu-comedy series."
Sweetin plays a fictional version of herself alongside two other former child stars: Beverley
Mitchell from 7th Heaven, and Christine Lakin from Step by Step.
But, life hasn't always been this sweet for Sweetin.
For many years, she struggled with an addiction to crystal meth.
She explains her experience on an episode of Dancing with the Stars:
"Drugs and alcohol just sort of numbed everything.
I was on cocaine and ecstasy and, you know, alcohol and all of that."
Once she was clean and sober, she wrote her 2009 memoir, unSweetined.
Sweetin has also been married and divorced three times and has two daughters, Zoie and
Beatrix.
In March 2017, Sweetin's ex-fiance, Justin Hodak was arrested for violating the restraining
order the actress had against him.
Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen
Ashley Olsen and twin sister Mary-Kate shared the role of youngest sister, Michelle.
But the Olsens probably won't be appearing on Fuller House any time soon.
After Full House ended, both sisters continued to act, co-starring in Two of a Kind from
1998 to 1999.
They followed it up with several direct-to-video movies including Passport to Paris, Winning
London and New York Minute.
Since then, Ashley has left the acting up to sister.
In 2007, Mary-Kate took a recurring role on Showtime's Weeds in 2007, followed by the
independent film The Wackness, and the 2011 movie Beastly.
Both Olsens, however, have had a big impact on the fashion world with their lines The
Row and Elizabeth and James.
In both 2012 and 2015, the sisters were named "Womenswear Designers of The Year" by The
Council of Fashion Designers of America.
As far as their personal lives go, Ashley Olsen has dated an interesting roster of men,
including Jared Leto, Lance Armstrong, and 58-year-old art dealer Richard Sachs, but
the two have since split.
On the other hand, Mary Kate Olsen's romantic life has been a little more stable.
On November 27th, 2015, Olsen married Olivier Sarkozy, half-brother of Nicolas Sarkozy,
former president of France.
She told The Edit that since getting married, her life has become incredibly normal.
She says,
"I have a husband, two step-kids and a life; I have to go home and cook dinner.
I ride horses on the weekends."
Andrea Barber
After Full House, Andrea Barber — who played Kimmy Gibbler — had a life full of normality,
telling Katie Couric on the "Katie" show that she graduated from Whittier College with a
degree in English, and later got her MA in Women's Studies at the University of York
in England.
According to a 2011 interview with The Mom-o-logue, Barber married Jeremy Rytky and had two children.
She told the publication that she was over Hollywood:
"Acting was a really cool childhood hobby, and I got to experience amazing thing.
But just like kids play soccer growing up, many don't turn into professional soccer players.
I wanted a different career as an adult."
Luckily, Barber changed her mind and took on her role again on Fuller House.
Bob Saget
Since Full House ended, Bob Saget, who played the family patriarch and resident neat freak
Danny Tanner, has kept himself quite busy.
In 1998, he had a short, but infamous cameo in the Dave Chappelle stoner comedy Half Baked
that would have left Danny Tanner in shock.
In addition to a series of guest appearances, Saget also appeared in the starring role on
the sitcoms Raising Dad in 2001, and on Surviving Suburbia in 2009.
TV viewers also heard Saget's voice every week from 2005 through 2014 as the narrator
on the hit sitcom How I Met Your Mother.
In 2014 Saget authored his second book, a memoir called Dirty Daddy: The Chronicles
of a Family Man Turned Filthy Comedian.
In addition to his work on screen, Saget continues to successfully tour performing stand-up.
John Stamos
Ever since Full House, John Stamos has been a force in Hollywood.
He has appeared as both a series regular and guest star on many shows, including 65 episodes
of the hit drama, ER.
But 2015 was an especially big year for Stamos in both positive and negative ways.
That June, he was arrested for a DUI.
On the Howard Stern Show, Stamos admitted to struggling with both drugs and alcohol,
saying,
"I was on some medications, antidepressants and that damn Ambien, I'm so happy to be off
that."
However, the same year, Stamos was also able to show off his funny side again, this time
starring in the sitcom Grandfathered.
Unfortunately, the show was canceled after just one season.
Currently, Stamos is producing and appearing on Fuller House.
Dave Coulier
Dave Coulier made his mark as the funny Uncle Joey on the series.
When Full House ended, he continued to tour as a "clean" stand-up comedian.
In 2015, Coulier told the Huffington Post,
"Over the years, I've continued to do stand-up.
When I do a performing arts center or a theater or a college, people say, 'You don't swear,
do ya?'
And I really never have."
In recent years, he has appeared on two reality shows — The Surreal Life and Skating With
Celebrities.
But perhaps one of the most memorable roles Coulier has played in pop culture, is confirming
that he is indeed the infamous subject of his ex Alanis Morissette's 1995 hit song,
"You Oughta Know."
Lori Loughlin
Lori Loughlin played Rebecca Donaldson-Katsopolis, aka Aunt Becky.
Loughlin was married to producer Michael Burns from 1989 to 1996.
She later married Mossimo Giannulli — of the Mossimo clothing line — with whom she
has two daughters.
Throughout the years, Loughlin has continued to work in television.
Her first major project post-Full House, was the cop comedy Hudson Street co-starring Tony
Danza.
She's had a slew of guest appearances and regular roles on various television shows
and movies, including the WB's Summerland, the 90210 reboot, and of course, her Fuller
House guest spots.
Loughlin currently stars in Hallmark's period drama, When Calls the Heart.
Marla Sokoloff
Marla Sokoloff was only 12 when she played Stephanie Tanner's infamous bad girl BFF,
Gia.
After Full House, Sokoloff landed a variety of roles, guest starring and recurring on
many shows, including Party of Five, Desperate Housewives, and The Fosters.
However, she's played some larger roles as well, most notably as Lucy Hatcher on The
Practice.
In 2009, Sokoloff married Alec Puro, a television and film composer, as well as the drummer
in the band Deadsy.
They have two daughters together, Elliotte Anne and Olive Mae.
In 2017, Sokoloff returned to the big screen as Mindy in A Happening of Monumental Proportions,
alongside Katie Holmes, Bradley Whitford, and Common.
It gets Fuller
It appears as though most of the cast of Full House, despite their life challenges, have
come out on top.
Not only that, but Fuller House has also been a hit for Netflix.
In December 2016, Variety reported that the show was renewed for a third season.
The following month, Forbes announced that the third season would be "supersized," increasing
the number of episodes from thirteen to eighteen.
Season 3 is set to premiere on September 22, 2017, marking the 30th anniversary of the
very first episode of Full House.
We marked our calendars!
