Move over boys, Granny's moving in!
mitchrmp13 April 2014
Danny is happy that is newly divorced, retired mother is coming for a visit. If you watched Season 1, you'll remember that the actress playing his mother was much younger. I actually liked her better. This actress was way to cliché for my taste. I didn't seem Danny's mother with this kind of personality. By the way, did you also notice how Jessie's parents just sort of drifted off into nothingness, never to be seen or heard from again (as far as I can remember)?

So Danny think he'll be doing the right thing by making her feel welcome. They trash the house (neatly, of course) and really make Grandma's day! She's so happy, in fact, that she decides to move in. Now, not only does Danny have to find a way to tell her she's not wanted to live under their roof, but that he doesn't like brussel sprouts!

And Oh no! Michelle has now climbed out of her crib. It's time to ditch it for a brand new bed. Oh, how I remember that time. It was a bittersweet moment when my son did that very thing, and I remember the same rule: You climb it, you lose it! I just love the relationship Jessie and Michelle have. So sweet...

Featuring Doris Roberts.
Movie-ManDan1 March 2018
Doris Roberts takes over the role as Danny mother, Claire. She comes to visit with everyone in the family feeling for her that she's recently divorced and retired. To make her feel better, Danny gets everyone to make her feel needed, when they can manage just fine without her. That makes her feel good and decides to move in. Uh-oh!

The subplot is Michelle getting out of her crib and into her first big-girl bed.

While Claire was played by a different actress in the first season, the replacement of Doris Roberts was well suited. And the main story of Danny wanting his mom to feel better but doing too good of a job is something we can all relate to. I will always like this.

Everybody loves...Full House?

It's kind of weird to see Doris Roberts playing somebody other than Marie, but she does well as Danny's mom in this. It's a shame we never saw her on this show again. I also can't help but wish that Danny had said something that his mother didn't approve of and then she would've said her famous line, "I don't like that, Danny."
