Why a Benjamin Franklin quote put 'Full House' fans on 'Fuller House' watch
Candace Cameron Bure and John Stamos reacted as talk grew of a 13-episode Netflix revival called 'Fuller House.'
"Full House" fans got a fresh reason to pay attention when talk of a revival picked up and cast reactions followed almost immediately. What changed is not an official launch, but a report that Netflix is close to reviving the sitcom as "Fuller House," with a few familiar names already tied to it.
The reported update is that Netflix is nearing a deal to bring back "Full House" under the title "Fuller House" for a 13 episode run. The project would reportedly center on Candace Cameron Bure returning as D.J. Tanner and Andrea Barber coming back as Kimmy Gibbler. Bob Saget and John Stamos were also said to be in line for guest appearances.
That is the part that affects longtime viewers of the original series, which ended 20 years ago, as well as the actors most closely linked to the new version. What has not changed is the lack of an official confirmation from the cast in the reaction that followed.
Cameron Bure responded quickly on social media, posting a message that played on the uncertainty over whether the news was real or an April Fools joke, while also directing followers to a new movie she appears in. Stamos took a different route, sharing a line attributed to Benjamin Franklin: "Believe none of what you hear, and only half of what you see."
Other cast members had not publicly addressed or confirmed the reported revival. No start date or release timing was given in the reaction tied to the rumored return, so for now, the biggest movement is the buzz itself, and the cryptic way some of the Tanner family orbit has chosen to answer it.
