Plot summary – "drunk driver" detail
I decided to remove that from the plot (diff) as both trivia and undue weight. This is a detail about the car accident that killed Pam which is not revealed until episode 178 in season 8 ("Under the Influence") when DJ needs to tell Kimmy about what happened to her mom and doesn't want to see her best friend be killed as a result of alcohol. Pam's being killed by a drunk driver is mentioned only once in the entire series, and doesn't need to be given spotlight in the series' plot. MPFitz1968 (talk) 15:21, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
 * OK, I agree – if it's just mentioned once, it's not an important plot detail, and should be left out. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 18:10, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
 * After looking at the trivia section for the "Under the Influence" episode in the Wikia for this show, I'm scratching my head as to the relevance of the detail that Pam was "killed in a car accident", another detail that is not revealed until a bit into the series - (well into season 2, quoting the Wikia page - In "Goodbye Mr. Bear", it was told that Pam had succumbed to injuries sustained in a car accident...). I take Wikia with a grain of salt, but (since I have the DVDs for the entire series) I could take a look at every episode up to that season 2 one to see if any mention of "car accident" is made. Regardless, the series doesn't put a lot of emphasis on that point every time Pam is referenced, and it may be better to start the plot with "After the death of his wife Pam, sports anchorman Danny Tanner..." (if I recall right, that was how it was originally worded in old revisions here). Given that Full House is a sitcom, I definitely understand the producers not wanting to focus a whole lot on the circumstances of Pam's death, but "car accident" and "drunk driver" seem to be more trivial details for this series than for, say, Party of Five (which is a drama series), where there was a whole season one episode devoted to the Salinger children confronting the driver who killed their parents. Thoughts? MPFitz1968 (talk) 17:07, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Again, agreed. On this series, the salient fact is her death, not the details of the circumstances of her death. Save that for the wikia – this series isn't Party of Five. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:43, 22 June 2018 (UTC)


 * DJ saying "Mom was killed by a drunk driver" is like "Poochie died on the way back to his home planet" - it comes out of nowhere, means nothing, and is never referred to outside that episode. Paul Benjamin Austin (talk) 18:17, 22 June 2018 (UTC)


 * That's why it's in the trivia section (on Wikia) -- and doesn't really belong on WP. --Musdan77 (talk) 21:23, 23 June 2018 (UTC)

"British remake" IP editor?
I think they were referring to shows such as The Upper Hand (TV series) which was a remake of Who's the Boss?. It would have been hard to translate Full House into a British setting as the original show is very U.S. and very Californian in its style and substance. I don't think three men raising three young female children would have worked in Britain at that time either, particularly once things like Robert Black start a fearful panic among parents.

The recent edits?
Such as this: "Jodie Sweetin was spotted in a guest spot on the show Valerie."

I'll be nice and not point out that that guest spot was BEFORE she was on Full House, yet the way it's worded makes the reader think she got it BECAUSE of her Full House fame. PAustin4thApril1980 (talk) 05:45, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

Stereo Broadcasts on ABC
Does anyone happen to remember when the first stereo broadcasts began? Maybe it was Season 4 (1991) or Season 5 (1992) or earlier Moonlightfocus (talk) 10:30, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

Full House → Full House (American TV series) – Not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. In Asian countries Full House (South Korean TV series) is more popular (or popularity split) according to Google Trends. Hddty (talk) 12:24, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose, current primary topic is justified per |Full_House_(South_Korean_TV_series) pageviews. 162 etc. (talk) 15:21, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Support, given the amount of additional articles that also share this name seen at Full house, Full House should direct to the disambiguation page, and this should be adjusted with a disambiguation. See also WP:NCTVUS. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:36, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Agree with 162 etc. Looking at Full house, there's no other article that touches this one in terms of page views. Other topics existing doesn't inherently mean there isn't a primary topic. Nohomersryan (talk) 20:10, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Weak support a "full house" can mean lots of things such as the card meaning at least that we cover. It would seem better to have no primary topic for the capitalized version per WP:DIFFCAPS.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 22:36, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Oppose. The page views presented above are convincing: the American TV show remains the primary topic here. Calidum  03:49, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. Dicklyon (talk) 06:57, 28 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Support for the same reason that "Full House" is no longer just an American TV series, so specifying it in the article is clear. WatABR (talk) 03:21, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Neutral the American TV show has 4x the page views of the next topic, and all the top 3 TV shows are over a decade old. I'm not sure that's enough for a primary topic, given that the poker/yahtzee term is older (and probably the basis of the show names) for all of them.  But I'm also not sure that's not enough.

 * Support. Far too many others for this one to be primary. -- Necrothesp (talk) 14:37, 1 December 2021 (UTC)

Updates
The syndication section needs to be updated. I'm surprised they didn't delete that article you cited. 2600:1700:B270:20F0:1927:66DA:C5BF:41D9 (talk) 22:35, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
