Full House But Seriously Folks (1987–1995) Online

if you want to be big in anything involving sports or the arts, the chances are slim to none. Jesse is a struggling musician and Joey is a struggling comedian. People always reach for their dreams and often quit when the going gets tough. This episode is one of a few that say not to give up so fast.

Joey is psyched for a chance to perform a gig where a huge talent agent will scouting. Joey bombs after Phyllis Diller is asked to perform and does a 90 minute performance. Yes, this is the real Phyllis Diller, and that's cool. But you don't place a legend before a newcomer! But at the same time, legends are so hard to resist. Joey gives up on comedy and cartoons and ventures out in search of a sophisticated job. He even goes so far as to put up a poster of Lee Iacocca in his bedroom. Meanwhile, DJ is learning guitar and can't get the hang of it, and Joey's quitting of comedy gave DJ the confidence to give up the guitar.

The comedy in the club is hilarious, and Jesse and Danny's manipulation to snap Joey out of it is hilarious too. But it is the message that makes it great.

Joey gets a chance at his big break when he decides to do his routine at an amateur stand up comedy club. Things go horribly awry when Phyllis Diller selfishly outshines Joey and goes on far longer than expected. Joey decides to quit comedy for good and venture into the world of business. Joey doesn't realize that it's affecting the decision- making of DJ. I thought this episode was alright. Dave Coulier is entertaining, but he isn't dynamic enough to have an episode centered around him. The impact worked, I'll say that. I legitimately felt bad for Joey when he got his chance stolen from him. People can be such glory hounds. I've always dislikes the character of Kimmy, so thankfully her screen time was short in this one. There were some amusing things. Watching Stephanie trying to be a grown up was cute. I also enjoyed watching Jesse and Danny trying to get Michelle to workout. As cheesy as it was, calling her "Arnold Schwarzenbaby" was cute. Joey looks weird with his hair slicked back as well. Ed Alonzo (Saved by The Bell) shows up as well. The message here, is that you should never give up on your dreams.

Favorite quote.

Danny: Break a leg, Joey! Stephanie: Break a leg? Danny: That means good luck. Stephanie: Oh! Poke an eye out, Joey!

6.3/10

Joey was excited about his comedy routine. The whole family came to support him. But a famous comedian was there who blew the house away. When Joey got up do do his routine, everyone left!

Naturally, Joey is upset - so upset that he decides he's done with comedy. Instead, he plans to become a business man. But as he looks for a job and receives job offers, he turns them down. The family lets him go on, but Jesse finally realizes they must do something when D.J. gives up guitar, quoting Joey's words when he gave up comedy.

Jesse and Joey are a hoot! The best part of the show is when Jesse tries to do Jesse's comedy routing which forces Joey to do his routine and gets a big round of applause as he brings down the house!

A heart-to-heart between Joey and D. J. sets things right.
