Let’s Talk About… Fuller House Season Four
Hey guys and welcome to TV Tuesday! Today I’m going to be talking about the Netflix reboot Fuller House, season four!Sometimes I really don’t know why I continue with this show, but at other times it’s funny and a complete guilty pleasure.
So this season starts on Christmas Eve where Max isn’t into Christmas and DJ can’t figure out why. It isn’t until an ornament breaks that she knows… and yet the viewer is still left in the dark. We find out soon after that it’s because he misses his father. So to cheer him up they watch old videos of them.
Now ok, this plot was beyond crazy and completely unbelievable, but I understand the point. So apparently now that Kimmy is pregnant she has this super power hearing and can hear the tiniest thing. So when their father takes a call, and movies out of the frame on camera, only Kimmy knows what’s happening… I also don’t know how she got all the information as fast as she did; she only heard them speak for a few seconds.
Apparently their father was talking to his mom about presents he hid for the kids and DJ, and so she goes to get them. Cute sentiment, but really weird exposition.
Then after everything has been said and done, it starts to snow… in San Fran… again great sentiment, but weird.
So now DJ and Steve are trying to have the perfect date to make up for lost time and everything they’ve been through the past 3 seasons. But they both set the expectations too high and get stuck in traffic, which turns into this horrible musical number…
Ahhhhhhh this is why I don’t like this show… why did they feel they needed to do a musical number by being stuck in traffic? This isn’t La La Land, uhhhhhhhhh. I hated every moment of this.
In the end they don’t go to the winery they were supposed to, but sit on hill and have a picnic, which is a lot better.
It’s hilarious how they are portraying newer technology and the way the different generations use it. When Jackson uses Facebook to declare that he and Rocky are in a relationship, but only “old” people use Facebook, and so she gets a photo on Snap Chat about it. She doesn’t want to be in a relationship, so he wants to use the landline to call her… Max goes “what’s a landline” I have to say it’s a good bit and in the end Rocky and Jackson commit to each other.
It’s funny to watch Steph get crazy over Kimmy and her pregnancy.Danny is having a hard time adjusting to retirement. All he wants to do is clean and shop at Costco. When Becky’s co-host really violates a code of conduct… because he’s already an ass, he’s gone and Danny’s back in; it’s good to see him doing what he loves.
This whole feud between DJ and Matt is back. Ugh. So they both end up on Wake Up San Francisco to promote dog adoption, but that turns into a bit of a disaster. So the two try to ruin the others business. That is, until Matt goes over to talk to DJ and runs into Danny… I get the ha-ha funniness of Danny feeling comfortable in the kid’s room to have a talk, it was still weird.
In the end, Danny talks Matt out of hating DJ and into them becoming partners again… things move quickly on this show.
I didn’t realize that Jackson and Ramona were in high school… here I was thinking they were in middle school, and the same age. Apparently Ramona is getting ready for college… when did that happen? Because of this Jackson is on a mission to find out what he’s good at, we also find out he’s a freshman. Turns out his talent is kicking a football so he joins the football team at school.
Ugh, Ramona’s new friends are so bleh. Obviously Ramona is mad and hurt, so Kimmy has a talking to the girls, but that doesn’t really go over well, but what does work is when Steph talks to them because she knows how to get to them and tell the truth. It’s nice to see.
What the hell is this two-week giftiversary thing? Why does it exist? Steve and DJ go competing to give each other bigger and better gifts and it just gets wildly out of hand. It doesn’t help that Fernando and Kimmy are trying to run the show. I’m glad it ends after too many gifts, but the gift that really works is a note Steve has.
