Yeah, that was a fun show. One of my aunts in Pennsylvania got the Baby doll with the pullstring and every time you would pull it in front of my overweight uncle, it would say “Hello, fat guy!”

I know Aunt Becky was hot but does anyone remember Jennifer and Mary Anne from ‘Perfect Strangers’? They were pretty smokin’ too.

OMFG I already TOLD you people- her parents were deep into the Heaven’s Gate cult!

Didn’t Alan Thicke write a few of the theme songs for these TGIF shows? Or maybe I’m wrong.

Does anyone remember the series finale of “Dinosaurs”, in which they basically all died? I can’t recall the exact details, something to do with the dad’s evil boss messing with the climate, but I do remember being distinctly depressed at the end of that half hour. Pretty morbid stuff for a TGIF show.

Though, poor Papooli kicking the bucket in the Tanner house…well, I don’t think I’ll ever get over that.

Who was Papuli? Papouli? Papooli?

Whatever.

And what was the Jesse’s doppelganger’s name?

Papoulo was Jesse’s great grandfather, I believe, and they showed up in an episode where their relatives from Greece arrive to celebrate the Great-Grandparents’ anniversary.

And his cousin’s name was Stavros.

I think the world is a better place now that I know other people spent their childhood watching TGIF and Kissyfur.

STAVROS!!!
The funniest name for a stereotype ever.

Uncle Jesse was the icon of TGIF. His ever evolving hairstyle, Jesse and the fucking Rippers, Aunt Becky, have mercy…he had it all!

No love for “Going Places,” the show that lasted for about half a season, starring Heather Locklear and Alan Ruck (Cameron Frye)?

“No prob, Bob.”

Waldo Geraldo Faldo dancing his ass off during a slow dance number.

Cody and Patrick Duffy beating the shit out an entire bar full of bad actors (including the original Green Power Ranger) to save Dana?

The mysterious disappearance on Suzanne Somers’ character’s sister & mom, including the beauty parlor.

The dance of joy.

One of a select few episodes of Full House that had both Olsen twins in it. One Olsen played Michelle, the other played her Greek cousin (using the magic of a black wig!!!). DJ also got married in the episode to some Greek dude, by walking around a table. I shit you not.

Any episode of Full House that featured Jesse Cochran (his original last name) and his fabulous mullet.

Are you sure you’re not confusing that Step By Step episode with a Family Matters with Jason David Frank? Kinda looked like B-Real from Cypress Hill.

BTW, Jason David is back on Power Rangers (Not in the spandex, though).

You’re probably right about Jason. I guess it was someone else in the Roadhouse episode of Step By Step.

That episode has the pussiest bikers in TV history. They fight the son and father ONE AT A TIME, even though if they all ganged up on the pair, they could easily kill them.

I do recall that. I was probably like 11 or something and I recall thinking it was a f*cked up way to go out…but they’re dinosaurs.
What did you expect?

Two words: Kimmy Gibbler

Didn’t the Full House gang go to Hawaii and perform with the Beach Boys, or was that a dream?

Step by Step, day by day…

I love when they play actual songs on Full House, but they can’t afford to have the actual band sing the songs, so they have the singers of the Full House theme sing it.

I think you might be getting your episodes mixed up.

One was when DJ won tickets to see the Beach Boys, but she could only take one other person.

The other was when they went on vacation to Hawaii, and got lost.

Hawaii episode was great. “The Menahunes! I DO believe!”
