Full House was full of mistakes! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I like the show, but it was full of mistakes. First of all, Jesse attended his high school reunion. Then on his wedding, he mentioned that he didn't wear his cap during his high school graduation cause it will mess up his hair. Finally on the episode when D.J. needed help from Jesse on her Stay in School speech, Jesse admitted he dropped out of high school. That was Full House's biggest mistake. On the first season, Jesse's last name was Cochran, then it was Katsapolis. When D.J. first met Steve, his last name was Peters. Then it changed to Hale on the next season. Could you name some more mistakes?

In the episode where Tommy Page sings to Stephanie at her 10th birthday party, in one scene you can see her running up the kitchen stairs crying, yet somehow miraculously in the next shot, she is shown running up the stairs that start in the family room.

As for Jesse changing his name from Cochrane to Katsopolis, he did that because that was supposedly his real name and he felt that because his relatives from Greece were visiting, he wanted to acknowledge his Greek heritage by changing it back to what it was originally.

Well now, those are big mistakes! I do have on explanation for one of them, though. Jesse's last name was originally Cochran, but John Stamos insisted that the producers change it to Katsopolis to reflect his Greek heritage. Still, they should've either gone with that name in the first place or left it the way it was.

Hi all,
It seems there were numerous errors in quite a few of my favorite shows, all of which were successful series that ran for years.

Apart from Uncle Jesse's high school graduation that happened, then didn't, and his changing last name, one thing that always bothered me is -- the way in the early years, Jesse was athletic with an at least average knowledge of sports, then later on, he was a klutz who knew absolutely nothing whatsoever about sports.

However, I feel that, as with the other shows that contained erors, these mistakes had no direct negative effect on the overall quality of the show.

yeah

jordojockey · 04-05-2001, 06:43 PM

Yeah, but do they have to tell you every single detail of their lives? That's not necessarily a mistake, because they may have used the boat and just not said anything in the show about it.

Artfiore1 · 04-07-2001, 11:28 PM

Jord,
Absolutely right.
We saw the inside of their bathroom a few times, but we weren't made aware of each time one of the used it.

During the eposide when Michelle falls for Steve, and they were going to have a pretend wedding. Well during the wedding steve was standing next to the door and you could clearly see his watch. Michelle tells him to come over to her,and when he gets there his watch is gone. You never saw him take it off.

I dont know if this is REALLY a mistake but in one episode Steph turns to DJ Steve and Kimmy and she says <DJ Steve I'm glad your here> then kimmy says "Hey what about me" then steph looks at Kimmy then back at DJ and Steve and says <Dj steve im glad your here> while trying to hold her laugh back... did anyone else notice that?? just thought I'd like to share that with ya...

This is extremely minor, but in one of the "Luck Be a Lady" episodes, Danny said to the girls:

"It's illegall to gamble unless you're over 21"

That's not quite phrased correctly, what he should have said was "It's illegall to gamble unless you're 21 and over"

Saying it the first way implies that people who are 21 years old can't gamble.

Yeah, that wasn't really a mistake. It was because of John Stamos' Greek heritage that he wanted to change the name. Actually, it happened before Jesse's grandparents visited. (That was in season 4, his name was Katsopolis since season 2) They never really made it clear on the show why the name was changed since even as a kid he was called Jesse Katsopolis.

Steve having two last names is definately a mistake though.

In one of the first episodes, DJ said Kimmy had four sisters. Not true. She only had a brother, Garth.

Episode where Jesey,Joey and Danny place was a pig stye and teir mothers were worried and said were gonna move in and help you take careof the children and the house, all 3 show up them 3 same ladies were never on the show after that playing their mothers.

One episode where the kids wanted to give their mom an valentines day present or was it a mothers day present and Jessey was trying to teach them to sing and Rebecca starts to sing and she can't sing to well. In other episodes she sung just fine.
