List of Full House and Fuller House characters
This is a list of characters from the TV sitcom, Full House.
Main Characters
Daniel "Danny" Ernest Tanner
Danny Tanner (b. 1957) is left with three young daughters to raise after his wife, Pam, dies. At the beginning of the series, he works as a sportscaster for Channel 8 News. Beginning in the second season, he is chosen to be one of the co-hosts for the station's new talk show, Wake Up, San Francisco, with Rebecca Donaldson. Much of the humor of Danny's character comes from his obsession with cleaning and cleanliness (he can often be found cleaning for cleaning's sake, sometimes even cleaning his cleaning products. As a matter of fact, "Spring Cleaning" is his Christmas.), his dorkiness and his generally "not-hip dad" personality. However, it was revealed that he went to college on a Billiards scholarship, and that he minored in darts, possibly indicating a somewhat more exciting past. Eventually moving on from his wife's death, he enters various romantic relationships through the show's eight seasons. Most notably is his relationship with Vicky Larson, first introduced in the fifth season. Their relationship reaches a climax in season six when Danny proposes to her using a firework reading "Vicky, will you marry me" during the family vacation to Disney World. However, Vicky gets offered a job in another city, resulting in their separation. File:Http://members.jcom.home.ne.jp/ajiron/jpegs/fd001da.jpg
Hermes "Jesse" Katsopolis
Jesse Katsopolis (b. 1963) (introduced as Jesse Cochran during season 1, but changed to Katsopolis due to John Stamos' Greek heritage) is Danny's brother-in-law, Pam's younger brother. He first moves into the house with virtually no experience in taking care of young children or babies, but learns quickly (sort of). In the first season, Jesse works for his father Nick's exterminating business before leaving to pursue work in advertising, frequently working with Joey. He later works with Joey as co-hosts of an afternoon radio show called the "Rush Hour Renegades," and also as the new owner of the Smash Club. Jesse's main passion is music, and struggles to "hit it big" with his band The Rippers for much of the show's early seasons. His band finally gets a record deal in the fifth season. But sadly soon after they vote him out of the band and they "hit it big" when they join Barry Williams (better known as Greg Brady on The Brady Bunch). Later in the series however, Jesse forms another band called "Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets". Jesse's biggest obsessions in life are his perfect hair, and his idol worship of Elvis Presley. His catchphrase is "Have Mercy!" He also likes to end a lot of sentences with "Huh?" such as "Put down the brain, huh?" He is usually seen as promiscuous until he begins dating Rebecca Donaldson a few months after she begins working with Danny, and they marry in the show's fourth season. The next season, they welcome twins, Nicky and Alex, and all four continue to live in the house with the rest of the family. In a later season, it is revealed that his true first name is Hermes, after his great-grandfather, but that he had it changed at a young age. Jesse continually was portrayed as a rebellious, egotistical, leather-jacket type of character, but was also shown as a caring and loving uncle as well as father.
Joseph "Joey" Alvin Gladstone
Joey Gladstone and Danny became best friends on February 23, 1968 when they were around eleven years old. A student was harassing Danny so Joey insulted the student in Danny's defense. When the other student told a teacher, Danny denied that Joey insulted the other student, preventing Joey from getting in trouble. Since both Joey and Danny saved each other, they decided to be best friends. Joey was engaged to be married at one point in his early to middle twenties. Patty, the woman he was engaged to, left him for someone else ONLY LEAVING HIM WITH A NOTE. (Patty returns in a season two episode.) He has several other girlfriends throughout the series, but is mainly known for his love of cartoons and other childlike things. It’s likely that part of this stems from his parents’ divorce. A further look, however, shows Joey to be quite multi-talented. He has a pilot's license and can fly a two-seater, out of which Jesse skydives the day of his wedding. Once on "Wake Up, San Francisco" he answers a question about cartoon violence with professorial mastery. It's also later revealed that he has a teaching license; he substitutes for Michelle's class a few times. He can give quite good advice at times. It’s just that his comical nature makes him seem like Peter Pan, the boy who never wanted to grow up. At times he tries too hard in serious situations: he once became so fierce in preparing for a hockey game that he scared Michelle (season six). And, on several occasions, he overdid the comedy part of his work with Jesse in an ad agency. It is the warm, sensitive, occasionally naïve Joey that the family loves. Joey loves being in the Tanner household - and not just because he is surrounded by the large family he always wanted as a child. In the Tanner household Joey can act silly and childlike, and nobody minds. Even Jesse, the tough guy who at times cannot stand Joey's comedy, feels like Joey is a brother. Their relationship is best described as the rocker rebel older brother and the comedic immature little brother, even though Joey is 6 years older than Jesse.
Rebecca "Becky" Donaldson-Katsopolis
Becky was born in Nebraska. An elegant well-educated woman, she found the man of her dreams in the wild Jesse. She was reluctant to admit this at first, but she found herself liking Jesse more and more. They almost eloped in Lake Tahoe at the end of season 2, then finally tied the knot in the middle of season 4. She, along with his living with the Tanners, helped to transform Jesse, although she still teased Jesse about his love of Elvis and his own hair at times. However, though these obsessions annoyed her at times even after their marriage, she was the wife part of a couple that obviously loved each other very much despite their differences. One of those differences was that she wanted him to focus more on his family, and not his music. She supported his musical efforts, but at times he went too far with it, such as when the family went to Tokyo for two weeks after he had a song, "Forever," that reached the top of the charts in Japan. Another time, she was upset that Jesse was doing his radio show with Joey and not spending time on what was supposed to be their honeymoon at Disneyworld. And, of course, there were the normal familial differences, with Becky always wanting to go to Nebraska for some holiday or other occasion, and Jesse wishing to go to Graceland. These were settled with the same love and humor that marked other situations. Rebecca also served as a mother figure for the girls at times, and one imagines that each of them confided in Becky when it came to issues regarding puberty and other topics. Her character is not quite as developed as the original cast’s, but she is still multi-dimensional. She combines the role of mother, producer of "Wake Up, San Francisco", the show she hosts with Danny, and loving aunt in a very positive and loving way. Rebecca didn't come into the picture until the second episode of Season 2, "Tanner vs. Gibbler". She had Nicky and Alex at the end of Season 5, and her role didn't really become serious until she and Jesse became boyfriend and girlfriend, most likely in the middle of Season 2.
Donna Jo "D.J." Margaret Tanner
Donna Jo "D.J." Margaret Tanner (b. 1977) is Danny's oldest daughter. She is 10 years old when the series begins and 17 at the show's end. D.J. is the only Tanner girl seen in all three levels of school—elementary, middle, and high school. She attends Frasier Street Elementary, Van Atta Junior High (named after the show's co-producer, Don Van Atta), and Bayview High School through the show's whole run. She shares a room with middle-child Stephanie at the beginning of the show, but switches rooms with Michelle in season five to have more privacy. One episode involved DJ showing warning signs of anorexia nervosa in which she feeds her sandwich to her dog, Comet, and eventually falls off an exercise machine after having not eaten for three days. Danny discovers this and gives DJ the typical eating disorder lecture, and then everything is back to normal in the Tanner household. After experiencing the usual preteen junior high boy-craziness, D.J. has her first serious relationship with Steve, first introduced in season five but becoming a real fixture in her life (and an official cast member) beginning in the sixth season when their characters return from a summer abroad in Spain. Their relationship lasts until midway through season seven, when they realize they do not have much in common anymore. During the show's final season, D.J. has on-off relationships with guitarist Viper (a new addition to Jesse's band) as well as rich-kid Nelson. Both Nelson and Viper sported mullets. In the very last episode, Steve and D.J. are reunited for her senior prom.
Stephanie Judith Tanner
Stephanie Judith Tanner (b. January 1982 and played by Jodie Sweetin) is the middle daughter. She is 5 years old when the series begins and 13 when it ends. She is the typical "precocious" child, far too cute for her own good, particularly in the early seasons. Her catchphrases of "How rude!" (later a catchphrase of Jar Jar Binks) and "Well pin a rose on your nose!" were heard frequently in the show's early years. Stephanie loves spying on older sister D.J.'s life (such as reading her diary and eavesdropping on telephone calls) and is generally the nosiest of the Tanner girls. She attends Frasier Street Elementary and DiMaggio Junior High during the series. Stephanie shares a room with D.J., and later Michelle. Her best friend in junior high is Gia Mahan, who was originally her biggest enemy. They get into various pre-teen/teenage exploits together. Of all the Tanner children, Stephanie has dealt with the hardest issues, such as teenage smoking, "make-out" parties, joy riding, and witnessing child abuse and crashing cars in the kitchen. She also is talented in dance.
Michelle Elizabeth Tanner
Michelle Elizabeth Tanner (b. November 1986) is the youngest character on the show, and is played by twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, who alternate unnoticeably in the role. Michelle is Danny's youngest daughter, the "little princess" whom he tends to spoil and pamper more than the other girls. She was just 6 months old when the show began and 7 when the series wrapped. Jesse and Joey's misadventures in taking care of her when she was a baby provided much of the humor in the show's early seasons. Michelle attends Meadow Crest Preschool and Frasier Street Elementary during the show's run. As she is a toddler, one of her catch phrases is "You got it, dude." Once Michelle started to grow up, she became the focus of a lot more storylines, as well as the majority of the show's publicity, thanks to the popularity of the Olsen twins. Her best friends, Teddy and Denise, appeared frequently in later seasons, as well as other friends include Derek S. Boyd, Lisa Leaper and Aaron Bailey. Michelle became an important role in the two-part series' finale. In this episode she is taking riding lessons, and decides to join a contest. When Danny, who decided to do this after being insulted by a woman who is entering her daughter Elizabeth in the contest, pushes Michelle to hard, Michelle and Elizabeth leave the contest to go have some fun. They decide to jump a big log, and Elizabeth prevails in doing so. However when Michelle tries to get her horse over the log, the horse gets scared, and knocks her off. Danny, Joey, and Jesse arrive in time to see the Elizabeth, and Michelle on the ground (though Elizabeth wasn't really hurt she was worried about her). When she awakens from the hospital, Michelle can't remember anything, not even her family. A day later when she returns home, she still can't remember anything so DJ and Stephanie give Michelle a tour around the house. Still, she can't remember, and Joey comes in to try to entertain her with a puppet Joey has been using in some episodes. Michelle wonders why everything the puppet says is about wood, but this still doesn't help her remember anything. Soon after, Danny, Jesse, and Joey sing Michelle the song they used to sing her to bed. It may have sounded terrific, but even with something that has lasted all her life didn't help her. Suddenly Michelle asks Danny that if she's her dad, where's her mom. Everyone is silent for a second as Danny explains to Michelle that her mother died when she was very young. Michelle begins to think even if she does get better she won't remember her. Michelle then begins to give up on trying to remember considering it too hard and "not fine" for her, and feels very depressed after this. The next day she still can't remember anything, except probably that the family always hugs (only to her: they hug everytime they leave a room they're in). A little while later her subconscience or her memory comes back to talk to her (this is probably the second time the Olsen Twins are seen together in the show). Her memory goes back into her and she soon remembers everything. Everyone's glad, even DJ who had to go to a prom, and was re-united with her former boyfriend Steve again. The series' finale ends up the family (and Steve and Kimmy) in a group hug.
Nicky and Alex Katsopolis
Nicky and Alex Katsopolis (b. November 1991) are the twin sons of Jesse and Rebecca "Becky" Katsopolis. They share a birthday with Michelle as shown in "Happy Birthday Babies"They have blond hair and are well-behaved toddlers throughout the series with no distinctions between them. They often repeat each other, as regular twins usually do. In the episode "Happy Birthday Babies" when the twins are born, Rebecca says Alex was named after "my high school teacher who inspired me to go into journalism" and Jesse says that Nicky is named after his father Nick, "who gave me great hair".
In the Full House books, it is revealed that Nicky is a little more adventurous, while Alex is the slightly more insecure one who almost always wants to be near his brother. In one episode of the TV series, when one of the twins has a cold, it evolves into a disagreement between Jesse and Becky about how to handle them. Becky worries that Jesse will turn Nicky into a rebel, while Jesse worries Becky will turn Alex into a wimp. However, this situation is quickly resolved and is never further pursued. Therefore, it is safe to say that, in the TV series, there is never a time when the characters truly have separate identities.
They are played by Blake and Dylan Tuomy-Wilhoit.
Kimberly "Kimmy" Louise Gibbler
Kimberly "Kimmy" Louise Gibbler is D.J.'s best friend. At the start of the series. Kimmy lives next door to the Tanner family, and D.J. and Kimmy met in the 6th month of Kindergarten. They were even in the same class together until 5th grade when D.J. was put in the advanced class. Kimmy has a rather outlandish personality, with quirky interests and hobbies. She often bursts into the Tanner house unannounced, and procedes to make herself at home without being asked. The Tanner family usually found Kimmy to be a burden, except for D.J. of course, although even she got fed up with Kimmy's behavior once in a while. Kimmy was also known to have a crush on Jesse. Kimmy's very eccentric parents are never seen on the show, but often are mentioned. She also frequently mentions having an older brother named Garth, and though he is also never seen, Kimmy reveals several facts about him throughout the series. For example, according to her, he has worked several jobs, including at the Piercing Palace at the Bayview Mall, in which Kimmy acquires the ear-piercing gun from him in order to pierce Stephanie's ears in Season 5. He also has a green-and-orange colored car called "Wild Thing". In Season 6, Kimmy gets her driver's liscense and takes D.J., Stephanie, and Michelle for a ride in her brother's car, which they get locked out of in the middle of street after seeing some nerds from Kimmy and D.J.'s school on the street and decide to play a game called "Ring Around The Chevy".
Steven "Steve" Hale
Steve Hale (originally introduced as Steve Peters) is D.J.'s first steady boyfriend. He joins the cast as an official member in season 6, though he made an appearance in a season 5 episode. Steve is two years older than D.J. and a star member of the high school wrestling team. He leaves the cast at the end of season 7 after he and D.J. break up, but makes a cameo appearance in the series finale the following year.
Pam Katsopolis-Tanner
Pam Katsopolis-Tanner (1958 - 1987), the girls' mother, Jesse's sister and Danny's wife, who was never actually seen in the series, except in the form of a home video when she and Danny brought Michelle home from the hospital. The video was shown in the episode 'Goodbye Mr. Bear'. She was killed by a drunk driver before the series began. She has been described as always smiling, overexcitable, and awful at punctuality.
Other Characters
Vicki Larson
Vicki Larson was played by Gail Edwards. Template:Spoiler Vicky is the type of woman who is very focused on her career, and that proves to be the undoing of her relationship with Danny. They meet and go together while Vicky is filling in for Becky (who is on maternity leave) on Wake Up, San Francisco. Later, Danny insists that she take a job in Chicago doing the news that she’s been offered once Becky returns ("Play It Again, Jess"), and that starts a long-distance relationship that goes from early season 6 to midseason 7, and which includes their engagement at the end of season 6. However, Vicky gets her dream job - anchoring the news in New York - and so she cannot come to San Francisco to stay, nor is Danny able to pull up all his roots with his family in California. Therefore, they break up, and she is not heard from again.
However, Vicky is a nice woman who gives good advice, especially when it comes to D.J.’s relationship with Steve and helping Danny to deal with it. She also acts like a mother toward Michelle at least once. When Michelle is being quite bossy during her day as Princess in Walt Disney World, Vicky reminds her that a good princess is always nice, and that’s why the people love her. The audience is given the impression that she would have made a nice mother, and one can even imagine that she has some of the same qualities as Pam did. However, her career came first.
Gia Mahan
Gia Mahan was a character on the TV sitcom Full House played by Marla Sokoloff.
Gia might be considered Stephanie’s Kimmy. Just as D.J. let Kimmy lead her astray a little at times, Stephanie got involved in a small number of wild, irresponsible things because of Gia, such as joyriding and a makeout party Gia hosted when her mother wasn’t around.
Template:Spoiler And yet, like Kimmy by D.J., Gia was shaped by Stephanie. An unknown time after her parents had been through a divorce, Gia is shown as a smoking, rebellious girl with horrible grades. She is possibly one to three years older than Stephanie, as evidenced by a comment by Michelle: "Are you ready for your third year of seventh grade?" Her horrible grades the previous year indicate she might have been held back one year. And yet, as of early season 8, we learn that because of Stephanie, Gia had stopped smoking, become more respectful to her mother, and had improved her grades.
Gia is a leader in some ways, as well. She performed in a band with Stephanie and Kimmy that failed miserably because the girls paid more attention to their appearance than to rehearsing. Despite being a relatively minor character, Gia's presence showed that Stephanie, while lacking the control of the book series, still was responsible enough and driven enough to be a great role model to a girl who was going through some problems. Gia might have led Stephanie into some temptations, but by the end of the series it was apparent that it was Gia who was changed for the better by Stephanie.
Teddy
Teddy is Michelle’s first best friend. He made his debut on the first day of kindergarten, when Joey told Michelle that the best way to make new friends was by being funny, and doing a Bullwinkle impression ("She talks with her hands on her head!") He accompanies her when she needs a buddy to sneak out and see Danny with when he goes on a date with Vicki in mid-season 5. He is also the one Michelle runs away to once later that season. He moves away to Texas in "The Long Goodbye," but when his father’s job moves him back to San Francisco, he returns. He is the typical best friend a child that age would have, and he and Michelle even consider trying to be boyfriend and girlfriend in third grade. However, they try too hard to copy what Stephanie’s magazines - and, impliedly, Stephanie herself - say is appropriate, and find that it’s no fun for children their age. So, they go back to just being best friends. Teddy was played by Tahj Mowry.
The character of Teddy is similar to T.J. from Smart Guy (also played by Mowry).
Denise Frazer
Denise Frazer is Michelle's other best friend, who replaces Teddy after he moves to Texas. Though she first appeared briefly in the episode "Girls Will Be Boys", she appeared again in "The Long Goodbye" after being switched into Michelle's class and became a reoccuring character. Denise, like Teddy was before her, becomes Michelle's sidekick and accompanies her when Michelle has an idea. In the episode "Be Your Own Best Friend" in Season 7, Teddy moves back to San Francisco, leaving Michelle to decide between him and Denise for who is her best friend. At the end of the episode, Danny makes her understand that it's possible to have more than one best friend, and she, Teddy, and Denise all become friends.
In the episode "Too Little Richard Too Late", Denise reveals that Little Richard is her uncle. When he comes to the Tanners' house to pick her up, Joey convinces him to perform at his campaign for president of the Fraiser Street Elementary School PTA. Denise was played by Jurnee Smollett.
Aaron Bailey
Aaron Bailey is the typical class bully, who acts quite annoying and rude at times. He pinches Michelle in one episode while they are in preschool. While that behavior doesn’t continue, his obnoxious ways are implied to continue through the series. Indeed, Danny remarks in an early 7th season episode that they are watching Aaron for several days "until his regular sitter stops twitching". Aaron was played by Miko Hughes.
Derek S. Boyd
Derek S. Boyd is one of Michelle's friends and appeared in several episodes throughout Seasons 6-8. Michelle first meets Derek in the episode "The Play's The Thing", when he beats her out for the role of Yankee Doodle in their class's play "America The Beautiful". Though Michelle is at first jealous of Derek for winning the part over her, she helps him recover from stage fright and they become friends. Derek is very educated and well-spoken for a boy of his age, though also a bit on the wimpy side and shows signs of being a bit obsessive-compulsive as well. As shown in several episodes, he was a very talented singer as well. Derek was played by Blake McIver Ewing.
Walter Berman
Walter F. Berman is a school friend of Stephanie Tanner. At first, Stephanie disliked him and went as far as teasing and imitating his resemblance to the duck. She even nicknamed him "Duck Face". However, after following her Uncle Jesse's advice, she learned to appreciate Walter more, even if he is a nerd.At first he thinks stephanie is his girlfriend. He is portrayed by Whitby Hertford.
Brett Davis
Brett Davis appeared in season four, a classmate of Stephanie who plays Little League baseball. He is the first love of Stephanie Tanner and possibly her first real boyfriend. In the previous seasons, Stephanie showed little interest in boys except as playmates (i.e. Harry, Duckface). D.J. teases Stephanie about her interest in Brett by clenching her heart and refers to him as "Brett-brett, brett-brett." In the episode "Stephanie Plays the Field", Brett asks Stephanie to go easy on him with the "Tanner Twister", a method of pitching created by Stephanie. Though she struck him out, at the end of the episode, she thinks he is mad at her. Brett said he would have done the same thing. They still remained Boyfriend and girlfriend
Harry Takiyama
Harry Takiyama was the first on-screen friend of Stephanie Tanner appearing in the second season. He would call her "Chief" and she referred to him as her boyfriend without understanding its full meaning. This led to a pretend wedding in the episode "Middle Age Crazy".
Cindy
Cindy was Danny's girlfriend in Season Four, but she only appeared in three episodes. She is first seen in the episode "Terror In Tanner Town", where it is revealed that she works as a dry-cleaner and this is how she met Danny. She has a ten year old son named Rusty.(whom is a terror)
Rusty
Rusty is the son of Cindy, Danny's girlfriend in Season Four. Rusty has a repuation for being a troublemaker and a prankster. In the episode "Terror In Tanner Town", Rusty spends the day with the Tanners and wrecks havoc throughout the house, including putting green hair dye in Danny's shampoo, giving D.J. and Stephanie gum that turns their teeth black, and locking Jesse and Rebecca in Jesse's room. At the end of the episode, Rusty reveals that he only did those things because he is still angry at his parents for being divorced and didn't want Danny to marry his mother. Though they have seem to cleared things up, Rusty's tricks continue into the next episode, "Secret Admirer". In this episode, Rusty writes a phony love letter to D.J. claiming to be from her crush, Ricky, the neighborhood paper boy. However, since Rusty did not write "Dear D.J." or address it to anyone and simply signed it "Hot For You", the letter got around to everyone in the Tanner household from someone else, leading to problems. Rusty appeared in only two more episodes, "Happy New Year" (in which Stephanie gets her first kiss from him, but to get him back for teasing her, she eats an onion before they kiss), and "Stephanie Plays The Field", in which Rusty was on Danny's little league team.
Nelson
Nelson was a recurring wealthy character during season 8, who dated D.J. on and off for a few episodes. Not much is revealed about Nelson's background or family aside from the fact that he is very rich and often throws parties on yachts. Though towards the end of Season 8, he reveals to have a cousin named Regina visiting in town from England, whom he sets Joey up with on a date.
Viper
Viper was a recurring character during season 8 as the young guitar player of Jesse's band "Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets". D.J. and Viper first meet when Jesse holds auditions for guitarists for the new band. They hit it off and begin to date, much to the chagrin of Jesse, who sees a little bit too much of himself in the young and wild Viper (he even has a cobra tattooed on his arm), and especially Danny, who is convinced that Viper is nothing more than a wild, uncontrollable, long-haired rock-and-roller. Eventually both Jesse and Danny learn to accept Viper, and he and D.J. date for a few episodes. Viper's last appearance on the show was in an episode where he breaks up with D.J., only to want her back a few days later, though he finds out then that she has started dating Nelson again. At the end of the episode, Viper and Nelson are so busy competing with each other to try to win D.J. that she decides she wants to date neither of them.

Pets
Comet the Dog
Comet is a golden retriever and was introduced to the show in the third season. Comet was born to a dog named Minnie. In a few episodes, Comet was played by a dog named Buddy. Buddy was born in 1988 but died of cancer on February 11, 1998. Template:Spoiler Comet's mother Minnie ran away from her home in Ohio and somehow ended up in the Tanner's backyard in San Francisco, California while pregnant. Minnie gave birth to a litter of puppies (which included Comet) on Jesse Katsopolis's bed. Minnie's owner arrived at the Tanner residence after Minnie gave birth. Once he arrived, he was so grateful that the Tanners, Jesse, and Joey had taken care of Minnie and her puppies that he allowed them to keep one of the puppies. Michelle Tanner chose to keep the one whom they called Comet.
In 1994, Michelle was constantly reminding Jesse at a time where he was busy that it was his turn to walk Comet. In the heat of the moment, Jesse told Michelle to walk Comet herself. Michelle was only seven years old at the time and not very strong, so Comet ran away from Michelle. Since Michelle was not allowed to cross the street, she only followed Comet to the end of the sidewalk. Comet spent the day exploring the city of San Francisco with a female collie. Danny Tanner happened to be broadcasting at the time he was informed about Comet's disappearance, announced the news to San Francisco, and let Michelle say some words to Comet as well. When Comet saw Michelle's message on a television in the window of a local store, he ran back home.
Sparky the Dog
Sparky the dog is a Jack Russell Terrier, who is owned by Teddy and his family. He was seen only in a few episodes. In the episode, "The Volunteer", Sparky was given four out of five stars in a dog show, which he won for his "funny walk."
