Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times 09/17/2018
It strives to beat out CBS for second place in the ratings. But this contrived muck isn't one of them. In fact, its entire premise of shared witless fatherhood (a la "My Two Dads" on NBC) is a great argument for birth control. Go to Full Review John J. O'Connor New York Times 09/17/2018
And so it goes, one predictable situation following another, with the actors frantically trying to keep the patient [the infant] from becoming a full-fledged corpse. Go to Full Review Tom Shales Washington Post 01/09/2018
Critics are supposed to rend teeth and gnash clothing when a show like Full House catches on, but why? The new ABC sitcom seems to follow at least one basic, if often ignored, rule of television: First, do no harm. Go to Full Review Josh Kurp Uproxx 09/17/2018
Full House is comfortingly bland. It's a bowl of white rice, spaghetti with no butter or sauce, eggs served on Saltines. You could live off it,... but you wouldn't want to. Go to Full Review Jim Vorel Paste Magazine 07/18/2018
Unlike the Blossoms of the era, Full House wasn't about the "very special episode"; it was just wholesome, family friendly entertainment all the time. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
