Introduction: Nearly 30 years after the Tanner family first appeared on television in Full House in 1987, its sequel hit Netflix, showing how much the Fuller House cast and characters had grown up from the original. When it first premiered, Full House was a hit for ABC, introducing one of the most beloved families in sitcom history and launching cast members into stardom. The original series followed a newly-widowed father of three young girls and his attempts to raise them alongside his brother-in-law and their best friend. Fuller House kept the same premise, this time centering around DJ, the oldest of the three Tanner daughters, and her three sons. As a family show, Full House had cast members of all ages, who, along with the audiences, were able to grow up with the series during its 8 seasons. A new generation was able to do the same when Fuller House premiered in 2016 and ran for 5 seasons, introducing a new cast of young stars while bringing back familiar faces. While not everyone from Full House returned for Fuller House, viewers were able to see most of the main cast and how they had grown, aged, and changed since the late 80s and early 90s when the sitcom was airing.
