There are a lot of things that don’t make much sense about both Fuller House and the series for which it serves as a sequel, Full House. The former, which streamed for five seasons on Netflix, finally wrapped up the story for good. And while there was a lot to be satisfied with about the ending, there are a few nagging details that just don’t make sense.
These aren’t necessarily continuity errors, but more so things that make you scratch your head and say there’s no way this could really happen.
Pulling Off An Elaborate Backyard Wedding In A Few Hours
I mean, come on. Viewers are supposed to believe that after discovering their wedding venue had been seized by the FBI on the morning of their wedding, they would be able to set up a last-minute backyard wedding?
First, the set-up looked like something that would cost an arm and a leg not to mention take hours and hours to arrange. Then there’s redirecting food, catering, booze, and so on. Plus, if they had a large wedding venue, chances are they had at least 100 people or so coming. So, what did they do, tell 75% of their guest list the wedding was cancelled, or uninvite them?
Danny’s Finances
We get that Danny was a popular morning show host for quite some time and that he also had some pretty good connections thanks to the gig.
But how did he manage to amass a fortune big enough that allowed him to afford the house DJ was living in along with his own place, a wedding for two daughters, an entirely new wedding last minute for his two daughters, to pay to fix the structure of the house after his daughter drove a car through it, and so on? He must have been a penny pincher or big saver for decades, or else morning show hosts get paid a lot more than viewers think.
Joey McIntyre Officiating The Wedding
Danny would have met many a celebrity in his day as a morning show host. But did he somehow have connections with the New Kids on the Block? And if so, why did he never pull a favor for his obsessed daughters earlier?
The fact that he was able to call McIntyre and have him show up on the fly and get a license online to perform the ceremony, is crazy. Either they’re great friends, he owed Danny a favor, or Danny paid him a pretty penny to show up.
Missing Family Members
Aunt Becky’s absence was explained away in that she was in Nebraska with her mother, but the wedding was announced far enough in advance that surely she could have made the trip back or they would come up with an excuse as to why she couldn’t. And it seems Michelle has lost touch with her sisters and is too busy with her life.
But what about Jesse’s twin boys? Were they with their mother or just doing their own thing and didn’t care about their cousins? And what about Joey’s wife and kids? Why weren’t they there?
The Whole Moving Thing
Palo Alto, where Kimmy was reportedly moving, is about a half hour away from San Francisco. Yet they all made it seem like they were moving hours away. But beyond that, why would they plan to rush out to move the day after the wedding? Did they go house or apartment hunting already and hid it from DJ?
Why not tell DJ they were planning to move but were going to start looking for places after the wedding? The way they framed it, it was like they already had places to stay. Wouldn’t it be awesome if it were not only that easy to find a new home with a closing date conveniently a day after your wedding, but also easy to back out of the mortgage or rental agreement at the last minute?!
Stephanie Being Pregnant
While it was sweet that Stephanie announced her pregnancy on the final episode of this sequel series, it also didn’t make much sense since doctors effectively told her she could not have children. She even went so far as to have Kimmy carry a baby for her as a surrogate via in vitro because she knew it would be impossible for her to get pregnant.
Of course, these kinds of miracles happen all the time. But it could be tough for some viewers to watch and potentially give them false hope.
Nearlyweds Set Up
In one episode, the kids set up a cool game show called Nearlyweds that they wanted to stream online and get the three couples to participate in. The prize? The winner gets to pick the first song they dance to.
Rather than a few sad kitchen chairs and a makeshift podium, however, they had some pro-level gear. It’s explained that the items were provided to them in exchange for ads so the kids had to give the store a plug every few minutes. But what store would go for this? And how did the kids manage to get enough of a social media following online to warrant a store loaning them what looked likethousands of dollars in gear?
Why Stephanie and Jimmy Didn’t Know Each Other
There have been comments made that the Tanners tried to stay away from the Gibblers and vice versa, with each finding the other family “weird.” DJ and Kimmy, however, were the exception. But are viewers to believe that Stephanie and Jimmy didn’t really know each other at all?
It’s possible they were in different grades but almost definitely in the same school since Kimmy and DJ went to the same school. It just seemed odd that she wouldn’t even recognize him.
What Happened To Fernando Buying The Gibbler House?
In one episode way back, Fernando makes a grand gesture and bought Kimmys’ parents house next door to the Tanners, where he supposedly lived, waiting for Kimmy to decide to move back in with him. But then the house is never mentioned again, and we never see him in it. Meanwhile, Kimmy still lives in DJ’s attic.
Does he still own that house? Will he, Kimmy, and Ramona live there? It seems like the best of both worlds so they’d have their own space but would still be a hop, skip, and a jump away. Why wasn’t that house ever mentioned?
Berta Was Willing To Lose A Big Order
It’s one thing to drop a difficult client and another entirely to drop an entire wedding party, including bridesmaid dresses, three brides dresses, three tuxedos, and more, because you’re offended by what a young kid has said about your style?
Berta was certainly a personality and a very proud woman. But it seems like business must be really good for her to be willing to give up what was likely thousands of dollars in business from a single client with a triple wedding without batting an eye.
