The absence of Pam also allowed for the introduction of other essential characters, such as Aunt Becky and Uncle Jesse, who played crucial roles in the Tanner family’s lives. John Stamos's dreamy Uncle Jesse Katsopolis was like the cool uncle you always wanted. Dave Coulier's comedian Joey Gladstone was the slightly lame, but goofy fun friend of your dad's.

From ‘General Hospital’ to ‘Big Shot’: John Stamos’ Life on TV

I have so many wonderful memories of her, and watching how proud she was of you, and of all of us, those last few years is something I’ll never forget. The “Full House” and “Fuller House” family rallied to Barber’s side by mourning her mother’s death in the comments. In "Fuller House," Joey is married to a woman named Ginger (Laura Bell Bundy). The couple met while Joey was continuing his standup career in Las Vegas. It seems that the two were very busy, as they ended up having four children together.

During the episode, the characters took turns telling their favorite stories about Pam. It was the season finale of Season 2 of Full House called "Luck Be a Lady (Part 2)," and in it viewers find out Danny Tanner met Pam in 10th grade and the two eloped very young, causing Jesse to beat Danny up, breaking one of his ribs. There are other really sweet stories about the girls singing "On Top of Spaghetti" with their mom and how they each inherited a different aspect of their mother's personality. According to Stamos, he only realized the alleged actions were abuse when he was writing the book — though he did have a moment of clarity before. When writing an acceptance speech (the award was for his advocacy for abused children), he started to reflect on the babysitter's actions.

He even went to the series’ original soundstage for inspiration. “Stepping foot back on that set was very personal for me,” he recalled. Aside from disappointed fans, John Stamos was also “heartbroken,” but was proud upon learning about their success as founders of luxury fashion brand, The Row. “We were disappointed, but we understood,” he said on a 2021 episode of Watch What Happens Live. Although the theory that Michelle died earlier than portrayed seems feasible, it has never been addressed by the showrunners and remains a speculation. After Full House, Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen had other obligations and focused on the fashion industry, running multiple brands.

It was Danny's advice that guided his daughters — DJ (Candace Cameron Bure), Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin), and Michelle Tanner (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) — through many a sticky spot throughout their young lives. His speeches even helped his close friends and roommates – Joey Gladstone (Dave Coulier) and Jesse Katsopolis (John Stamos) — through bumpy relationships and rough moments of their own. The series experienced heavy turnover with its writing staff throughout its run. Show creator and executive producer Jeff Franklin was the only writer to remain with the series throughout its entire eight-season run (Franklin also wrote and directed several episodes during the first five seasons). Few family sitcoms had an impact on the late '80s and early '90s like "Full House" did. Sure, it may be remembered for its corny humor and for the sentimental music that swelled whenever one of the characters learned a big life lesson.

John Stamos: Olsen Twins Turned Down ‘Fuller House’ Because They’re Done with Acting

Having not acted for years, they were reluctant to reprise their role, given their many responsibilities. Executive producer Bob Boyett reportedly said that Ashley told him she “didn’t feel comfortable acting,” and Mary-Kate felt the timing was not right. Gia is also Rocki's mother and later Matt's new girlfriend (as of "No Escape").

In "Fuller House," Nicky and Alex are all grown up -– though they have still retained their roguish nature. Now in college, Nicky and Alex have ambitions to own their own fish taco truck. To their father, it seems that the twins have very little direction, but their mom is a bit more understanding. With the boys in college, Becky begins to develop a case of empty nest syndrome.

They met Jesse and the Tanner family for the first time the day before Becky and Jesse's wedding. Kenneth and Jesse had trouble hitting it off at first, as Kenneth wasn't a fan of Jesse's "wild" ways. Nicholas "Nick" Katsopolis (John Aprea) was born in Greece, and later moved to America, where he started his own bug exterminator business. This family endeavor included his son, Jesse -– however, in the "Full House" Season 2 episode "It's Not My Job," tensions sprung between father and son when Jesse left the business to pursue his music career. When Nick threatened to disown Jesse, it was Nick's wife, Irene (Yvonne Wilder), who stepped in to mend the bridge between the two. In the end, Nick still wasn't all that happy about Jesse's new ambition, but accepted him back into the family.

In September 1972, Pam met her future husband, Danny, in tenth grade when she sat next to him in Geometry class. They eloped at a young age, which upset both of their families, causing his mom, Claire, to cry about it for a month, and even caused Jesse to get so mad that he beat Danny up. The next episode, "Sea Cruise," shows the guys on a boat cruise at night with some women having a wholesome good time. Jesse has second thoughts about his engagement when his old girlfriend re-enters his life. Joey and Stephanie go to a mother/daughter slumber party when Becky can't make it. Joey and Jesse host a children's programming, but end up breaking Stephanie's nose in the process.

Six months after Michelle was born, a drunk driver killed Pam Tanner in a car accident. We see Pam just once during the series, when the family watches an old home video. Given all the goofy comedy of “Full House,” it’s easy to forget the show featured one of the most devastating premises of any sitcom in history. In the last episodes of the entire show, the two-parter "Michelle Rides Again," Michelle has amnesia after falling off a horse, so the family tries to help her remember her life. Michelle asks, "Where is my mom?" and the family has to explain that she died when she was just a baby. The amnesia storyline was ridiculous, but at least it gave the show a way to give a final farewell to their mom Pam.

Before becoming friends with Stephanie, she has her own clique of girls that she is the leader of, and would relatively boss them around and decide what they would do. Nobody seems to have the courage to stand up to Gia, except for Stephanie, and she earns the respect and friendship of Mickey. As of 2023, Stamos had been an ambassador for the non-profit Childhelp for over 20 years. According to the organization, it "exists to meet the physical, emotional, educational and spiritual needs of abused, neglected and at-risk children."
