Fuller House (TV Series) President Fuller (2018) User Reviews

Does not hit home the reality of life issues and creates a false sense of feel-good hope

[shyguygamer · 3/10 · 16 December 2018]

Sometimes Fuller House can seem heart-warming and bring a lot of "feel-good" moments, but it doesn't portray life accurately. It assures it's viewers that everything turns out the way you want in the end...and that simply just isn't true. In this episode, there is a young woman named CJ, who was going to marry Steve. Steve is now dating the show's main character, DJ. DJ ruined the wedding of Steve and CJ by professing her love for Steve, as Steve reciprocated, and wound up basically ditching CJ on the altar. Now, I've known many ladies in my life, and absolutely none of them have been forgiving of me for even the tiniest of offenses. I cannot imagine a world where a woman would forgive anybody for ruining their wedding day. But that is exactly what happens in this episode. We're led to believe that because Max and Rose, the children of DJ and CJ, are friends, this is why they even tolerate each other in the first place. Not only do the parents allow their children to associate, they then lead us to believe that CJ and DJ have a discussion and work things out and become friends again! HOORAY!! *sarcastic face* Come on now...this does not ever happen. This is like my best wishes of those whom have hurt me or I hurt would reconcile and we would be friends again and everyone lives happily ever after...but no, this isn't the case. In today's world, attempts of reconciliation are met with mroe blocking, more ghosting, more ignorance, often followed by bouts of depression and other mental health ailments. This would be not only more plausible, but also more interesting for the viewers, and more heartfelt. I do not need reassurance that my hopes and wises will be fulfilled...I need to know how to handle it when those wishes aren't fulfilled.

Nothing Good.

Max runs for class president. But girlfriend Rose already has dibs. This means their relationship (the little one they had) is over. All this is happening while DJ is trying to make amends with her mother. It needed finesse and reality. I felt like it was wasted.

Danny and Becky return. These returns are easily the best parts of these episodes. Danny is forced to get a colonoscopy on tv. All this is done for cheap laughs. Bad plot.

Stephanie becomes rivals for kid parties with Jimmy's favourite clown, Suddsy. This plot is not very good either.

We get three potentially good episodes all wasted. Typical contemporary family sitcoms.
