Full House covers serious topics
On Reddit, a thread created by u/beekee404 (https://www.reddit.com/r/fullhouse/comments/v0dnbl/i_think_whoever_calls_full_house_a_cheesy_fluff/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) saw many viewers in agreement that "Full House" isn't just "cheesy fluff." This user said, "Just because it's not as raunchy or dark-humored as shows like Roseanne, it doesn't mean it's all rainbows and sunshine." Over the course of the series' eight seasons, some serious, real-life issues are tackled. This is true from the premiere episode, which sees D.J. and Stephanie grapple with how much things are changing after the untimely death of their mother.
As "Full House" progresses, it covers a number of other heavy subjects. In Season 4, Episode 8 ("Shape Up"), eating disorders and body image are spotlighted as D.J. starves herself and over-exercises to look thin for an upcoming pool party. The show also touches on peer pressure, anxiety, grief, and teen pregnancy. But each time, the situation is thoroughly discussed and those involved usually come out stronger on the other side.
Many fans were in agreement that there is more depth to "Full House" than meets the eye. For example, u/mike126beatles (https://www.reddit.com/r/fullhouse/comments/v0dnbl/comment/iahgrpe/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) said, "Yes, it could be corny at times, but it was a good clean show. It could make you genuinely laugh or cry. There were serious issues addressed and adult humor that was subtle and not over the top like modern shows." Similarly, u/AnkaBananka6 (https://www.reddit.com/r/fullhouse/comments/v0dnbl/comment/iag9073/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) described the show as "well-rounded" and praised it for balancing serious subjects with wholesomeness.
