they were babies!


seriously? MK and A got hired because they were the only babies who didn't cry when they were held by the cast members... and they were babies not toddlers.

I agree and this DJ is too old. Not liking it so far and why do all the adults have greasy hair or bad wigs?

yeah, with how old she looked in that last scene, I thought she was looking for lori because she had just gotten her lady visitor.

Exactly. The budget of this was clearly so cheap they only got two sets of twins for MK and A, but it is glaring to see those tots playing around-13-month-old Olsons! They were born June 13, 1986, and for the show to start in September 1987, most of season one (maybe all of it), they were barely a year old! (Maybe even under a year when the first episode was made.)

Cheap outs,,., Cheap outs all around. I've even "liked" unauthorized movies. (Ya know, as far as tv movies go--lowering the bar.) The "Three's Company" one wasn't bad, the Beach Boys one also was entertaining enough. But swing and a miss, Lifetime with these "behind the scenes" films. Swing and a miss.

I'm the exact same way. I even recorded the saved by the bell movie because I thought about watching it today. No way in hell will I be watching the Full House ever again. It was a huge let down. I can watch ridiculous movies and see the good things about it but this one has no chance lol

If you looked at the cast list you'd see that they had 3 sets of twins for Michelle. Toddlers, age 6 and 9.

Yeah, you're right. I was going to revise that because when I wrote "two sets of twins" the movie wasn't even over yet. It definitely was weird they did go to the trouble to age them again later on but to start out with such older twins for the beginning!

i came here for the same reason..to see if anyone mentioned that. from what i recall the girls were 9 months when they started FH..seriously the ones portraying the twins looked at least 2. way to old.

Hey if the original cast can suck it up and deal with babies, the movie should have strived for that accuracy.

I also was like uhh couldn't they afford to get more than one set of twins? I guess not. I generally hate kids playing the Olsen twins because they have a very very specific look that makes them really unique they kind of looked like baby orangutans. I remember the baby michelle was mentioned on The unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt and they used a different baby for her image and I was just annoyed by it.

RIP Cory Monteith your fans miss you dearly

Historical movies are notorious for taking stories that would have been just as interesting if they were accurate and turning them into 90% fiction. In the pilot uncle Joey and Jessee had this hilarious scene where struggled to figure out how to change Michele's diaper and she couldn't have been even a year old. I don't think the scene they did do of uncle Joey sleep walking and then saying she needed a diaper change ever occurred but it certainly was not in the pilot. It also should be obvious that these twins were way too old to still be in diapers. They don't give their ages but they looked about 3. Right from the beginning this makes me question nearly everything else in this movie. Nobody thought twice about a baby as young as the Olsens being shown naked in the real pilot but if they did that with these toddlers it would have been child porn!
