3. Candace Cameron Bure (DJ Tanner), Jodie Sweetin (Stephanie Tanner) and Andrea Barber (Kimmy Gibbler) have all confirmed that they will reprise their roles for "Fuller House."

4. Netflix is negotiating with other stars of the show to get them to return for the spin off.

Bob Saget (Danny Tanner), Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (Michelle Tanner), Dave Coulier (Joey Gladstone), and Lori Loughlin (Rebecca Donaldson Katsopolis) are all in talks with Netflix to appear in guest starring roles.Â

5. The show almost ran for more than 8 seasons.

After ABC ended the show in 1995, the WB wanted to pick it up, but John Stamos and Candace Cameron wanted to move on.Â

6. There was almost a Full House movie.

In 2009, John Stamos wanted to produce a Full House movie. Oddly enough, he didn't want to play the part of Uncle Jesse and was hoping to have James Franco play that role. He also cast Steve Carell and Tracy Morgan as Danny and Uncle Joey.Â

Now all is right with the world!
