One of a few polls ont he biggest switches made on "Full House" - the one, everyone on antoher group says have Jodie not wear earrings fromt he start of season 6 (or whenever they knew they'd do the story "I'm Not D.J.") I wont' say anything abot the need to suspend disbelief about a performer not being a character (though that would give people more of a hint as to what to suspend), what I will do is go right to this query.

Let's play we're producers - how do you handle season 6's plan to have Jesse go back to school?

We know now he lied about graduating, and that he just got invited back for his reunion by some friends. (Most allow you to even take spouses who never went there, so if all else failed, one of his old friends could have brought him as a guest.) His lying on the application to Bouton Hall ("Be True To Your Preschool") shows that. He only talked about not going to college to Joey and Becky in "No More Mr. Dumb Guy" (Despite what a few sites say is a spoiler because someone wasn't paying attention to that episode :-)

But, some may feel something more would have been better. If so, what would you have done to make it more plausible?

#1 is easy, it says that people can easily suspend disbelief - or should be able to, anyway - and presume Jesse just lied and tricked people. With Bouton Hall as one of those clues that he woudl do that.

#2 is like #1, but it admits that while not needed, it would have been cool to see the teenage Jesse, maybe confronted by Pam about what he was doing when he was telling everyone else he was in school

#3. This one's for those who need just a little nudge toward accepting it - if they heard that he lied, then yeah, the rest could make sense. But, I'll admit, when characters tell us things we do like to assume they're telling us the truth! :-) I just think that it's easy to figure he lied back then; hey, we know what his younger days were like well enough :-)

#4. This basically says more detail was needed, plus maybe reiterating that he'd talked to Joey and Becky about college, not high school. This further scene would have let him explain in more detail what happened besides just walking out (he'd have had to have a plan so the school didn't call, or so he got the phone and his parents weren't home, etc.) This would allow his sneaky plan to be detailed, along with us seeing that he really felt badly about lying. (And, you Jesse/Becky fans always like any scenes with them, I know :-) But, just vote what you would do when faced with this problem.)

#5 basically says there was too much for even an admission of lying or a short scene with Becky to explain. This is saying that you'd like to see Jesse talk about how he'd had to leave "education" blank on job applications (or lie on them) And, what about his radio show; did the manager say she wanted Joey with him because she knew his education background and not Jesse's? If so, how? Did Joey aplpy to work there before? that's quite possible. It wouldn't take a whole lot, but a few lines in different episodes that just piont to it and help viewers understand. And, maybe a flashback or two, too.

How could Danny not know that his brother-in-law didn't graduate? They were not only related, but apparently good friends. It doesn't make any sense.

You would think that if Pam knew, Danny would..but Pam might have felt that even Danny shouldn't know. And, he apparently wasn't as close till after the accident, so he might have just been too deep intothe lie by then.

Then again, does Danny express a lot of shock when Jesse finally reveals it? I suppose maybe he *did* know, and played dumb. Hmmmm, I suppose it's possible.

I know a fellow who told his wife, but not his kids, that he was married for 4-6 months in his early 20s and it never worked out; they did it too soon. No, there were no kids, they were just like Jesse adn Rebecca at the end of season 2 when they did. This fellow's kids have never heard the 1st wife's name and have idea their dad was married before. In this case, it was because the breakup was too hard on the man, but still, there are things close family doesn't get told.
