10 Dark Full House Moments We're Amazed The Sitcom Got Away With

Full House, the beloved family comedy from the '80s and '90s, surprised audiences with its dark and challenging storylines. The show followed the unconventional home life of the Tanners in San Francisco, where single dad Danny Tanner was left to raise his three daughters - DJ, Stephanie, and Michelle.

In 2016, almost two decades after the show ended, the Tanners returned in the spin-off sequel, Fuller House, on Netflix. However, despite having a similar premise to the original show, the offshoot failed to recapture the magic and did not explore as many dark storylines as its predecessor did.

Full House tackled the dangers of promoting unhealthy beauty standards as DJ went on a secret hardcore diet.

Eventually, she had to admit her struggles to her family after passing out. Stephanie also faced societal pressures and dealt with peer pressure.

Papouli's unexpected passing deeply affected Jesse and Michelle, who bonded over their shared loss. Stephanie experienced post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after a devastating earthquake.

Her fear of losing her dad caused her to become overly worried and dependent on him.

Full House pushed the boundaries of a traditional family sitcom by addressing these dark storylines with sensitivity and depth. It showcased the highs and lows of parenting while maintaining its unique style and charm.
