IMO, it's an '80's show since 'family sitcoms' weren't that big in the 1990's with the popularity of "Seinfeld", "Friends", "Wings", etc. And only a few like "Family Matters" & "Roseanne", which was less sugarcoated than a typical 'family sitcom' were on.
When "Full House" aired, shows like "The Cosby Show", "Growing Pains", and "Who's The Boss" were either still popular or at it's peak.

I beg to differ. Family sitcoms were HUGE with the 4-14 age bracket. I watched Family Matters, Full House, Step by Step, etc.. at least once a day if not more. Of course, then there was Saved by the Bell which I watched several times a day.

I was also in that age range, but I was more into shows like "Martin", "Married...with Children"...a 'family sitcom' on acid, "Herman's Head", etc. Maybe that's just me.

I think you guys all have good points. Wouldn't you agree it is a latecomer though? And yeah, sitcoms of all types were big in the 90s. But I agree, it is more akin to Family Ties, Cosby Show, etc. than to Friends, Seinfeld, etc. But by date - 90s fer sure ;D

Do any of you know if new episodes of Full House were made more frequently in the early years (87-90) than the late years (91-95)? It seems like they linger in the 80s on ABC Family but zoom thru the 90s episodes.
BTW the best period of the show I think was 89 to 92.
