Netflix announces final season of Fuller House


If you thought saying goodbye to Full House was rough, just wait until you have to say goodbye to Fuller House.
Just a month after Netflix released the fourth season of Fuller House, the streaming service announced the upcoming fifth season will be its last. The spin-off series first aired in 2016, bringing the Tanner family back to television screens after 21 years away. Most of the original cast returned for the revival, with Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin, John Stamos, Bob Saget, and Dave Coulier breathing new life into their characters.
Full House lasted for eight seasons, originally airing on ABC from 1987 to 1995. Creator Jeff Franklin also helmed Fuller House and served as an executive producer and showrunner on the first three seasons before being removed due to misconduct allegations, reports Deadline.
