Product Description

Half the fun in following a long-running series comes from watching the cast grow and change. In Full House's final season, Joey (Dave Coulier) grows out his hair, seventh-grader Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) starts wearing makeup, and preschoolers Alex and Nicky (Dylan and Blake Tuomy-Wilhoit) form complete sentences. Other (non-cosmetic) developments: Jesse (John Stamos) forms a new band--and dubs them Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets (yikes!)--while senior D.J. (Candace Cameron) prepares for college. As in years past, the best episodes incorporate dream sequences. In "Making out Is Hard to do," Jesse imagines he's the subject of a documentary--with Kimmy Gibler (Andrea Barber) as his wife. "My Left and Right Foot" mixes humor with horror when Michelle (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) imagines she's a circus clown because her feet are growing so fast. The third-grader also appears in the season's low point, "Claire and Present Danger," in which she dresses up as a trash-talking floozy (tiny tarts are rarely a good idea). After eight years, Full House hadn't run out of steam, but family sitcoms were on the wane. Though the show was never the coolest or most cutting-edge, its life lessons still apply. Sometimes it could even be unexpectedly insightful, as when Danny (Bob Saget) remarks, "When kids seem the least lovable, that's when they need love the most." He jokes that he stole the line from his Ziggy calendar, but truer words were never spoken, and the Tanner household was never short on love. Fans who missed the final episode ("Michelle Rides Again") will also be pleased to find that the writers came upon a clever way to unite Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen onscreen. That's right: two Michelles--in her imagination, of course. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Good conclusion July 24, 2009
Lundlover (Lincoln, NE)
Not meant to be a thorough review, but season 8 is a fitting conclusion to an excellent series. I can put Full House in for my kids and leave the room knowing that the content will be just fine. You can't do that with many shows anymore. So great family fun, and an excellent value.
10 out of 10 for Full House Season 8! December 6, 2008
Minnie Mouse (South Australia)
This show was an unlikely hit, yet it is adored by so many! The last installment of the series is a must-have addition to any Full House fan's DVD collection. If you like the series and you're considering buying this season, I'd say go for it! Just keep in mind that there are no special features unfortunately.

My 20 year old daughter grew up with Full House and still loves to watch the old shows. She has every season on DVD and loves them.
