Though I am sure you already know what the show is about, here is a short summary of it:Full House first aired on ABC on September 22, 1987. Widower, "Danny" Danniel Ernest Tanner (Bob Saget) is left to raise his three daughters, "D.J." Donna Jo Margaret Tanner (Candace Cameron) Stephanie Judith Tanner (Jodie Sweetin) and Michelle Elizabeth Tanner (Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen) after his wife, Pam, died in a car accident from a drunk driver. So Danny asks his best friend "Joey" Joseph Alvin Gladstone (Dave Coulier) and his brother in-law Jesse Cochran (John Stamos), but by season two his name changes to Jesse Katsopolis, to help raise his three girls. It's like Three Men and a Baby, but instead it's with raising three young girls. We watch these three dads raise these girls through the trials and errors of parenting. It's not a normal family, but it's a happy one, at least most of the time. Every family has it's ups and downs.
Added to the bunch, Jesse falls in love with and ends up marrying "Becky" Rebecca Donaldson (Lori Laughlin) and they have twin boys Nicky and Alex (Dylan and Blake Tuomy-Wilhout). It sure is a "full house" with lots of love to go around until May 23, 1995 when the show came to an end, but the laughs live on in this DVD set.
This is a great buy! All 192 episodes from all 8 seasons are in this set. There are 16 slim DVD cases, 2 per season. And in each case there are 2 DVDs, making a total of 32 DVDs in the box to store in the Tanner family house.
The DVDs in this set are actually exactly the same as the DVDs sold in the individual season boxed sets. The slim covers for each 2 DVDs in the set, are also the exact same as the individual seasons sets slim cases.
What's also great about the DVDs is that they don't cut out any scenes, like they do when they are on TV. I have noticed many longer scenes that were cut off on TV. Also, the theme song isn't cut either, until the 7th and 8th season, then the song is cut; otherwise every episode has the entire song play in the beginning.
If you are one who wants to know the lyrics to the theme song "Everywhere You Look," here it is:
WHATEVER HAPPEND TO PREDICTABILITY
THE MILK-MAN, THE PAPERBOY, EVENING TV
HOW DID I GET TO LIVING HERE
SOMEBODY TELL ME PLEASE
THIS WHOLE WORLD CONFUSING ME
CLOUDS AS MEAN AS YOU'VE EVER SEEN
AIN'T A BIRD WHO KNOWS YOUR TUNE
THEN A LITTLE VOICE INSIDE YOU WHISPER
PLEASE DON'T SELL YOUR DREAMS SO SOON
EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK
EVERYWHERE YOU GO
THERE'S A HEART (THERE'S A HEART)
A HAND TO HOLD ONTO
EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK
EVERYWHERE THERE'S A PLACE
OF SOMEBODY WHO NEEDS YOU
EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK
WHEN YOU'RE LOST OUT THERE AND ALL ALONE
A LIGHT IS WAITING TO CARRY YOU HOME
EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK
EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK
I was listening to the song while writing down the lyrics. After several hearings of it, hopefully I got most of the lyrics right, but anyways, this is very close to the real words in the song.
It's great to watch with the family and you never have to worry about leaving your child watch this show alone. It may not be a classic, but it sure entertains, but more for those young ones between the ages of 8-12. However, I have plenty of memories watching this show as a child, and I still enjoy it.
Every episode has a life lesson to be learned. I think many viewers can relate to the characters' and their problems. I think that is why it stayed on TV for 8 years, even though I know the first season didn't do too well, at least those other seasons behind it helped keep it on.
The languages spoken in the box set is just English. As for subtitles for the series, well, it varies. I did check each of the seasons, but not each DVD, what the subtitles are, but I'm pretty sure that the subtitles from disk one in season one is the same for disk four for season one and the same goes for the rest of the seasons. Please let me know if this is incorrect, or if I notice that it isn't in any of the seasons and disks, then I'll update this review. Anyways, seasons one through three have English, French, and Spanish subtitles. Seasons four through five have French and Spanish. Season six has no subtitles, and seasons seven through eight have just English subtitles for the hearing impaired. I'm not sure why the subtitles are not the same for each of the seasons.
