Hey Fuller House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered S2E8: A Tangled Web, which aired on December 9, 2016. In this episode Jackson pet-sits Lola's tarantula, Dj works over time to help Max on a school project, and Jimmy makes a music video for Stephanie's latest hit. and S2E9: Glazed and Confused, which aired on December 9, 2016. In this episode with out-of-town trips planned for the adults, Uncle Joey delivers doughnuts -- and unexpected drama. Stephanie's nervous about singing on television. I thought these episodes where good not great, DJ in the first episode was just way over the top with Max's school project and I get it, that's who DJ is now, she's so far removed from the DJ we all grew up with to the point where she doesn't even feel like the same character anymore. In Glazed and Confused Joey was the worst what he put them all though with those day old gas station donuts. Shame on him! Matt came to the

Hey Fuller House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered S1E12 Save The Dates, which aired on February 26, 2016. In this episode D.J. has a date with her past that catches her off guard, and Kimmy's date with Fernando is nothing but surprises. Loved Steve's Bayside Letterman jacket, but the fake toupee has to go, like yesterday! Matt was adorable in this episode, but I will always be Team Steejay! and S2E7: Girl Talk, which aired on December 9, 2016. In this episode Kimmy hatches a plan to reunite and relaunch the girls' childhood band, Girl Talk; a vengeful video making fun of Ramona goes viral. I also complain a lot about how much I can't stand Gia, but if we have to have her to get Rocki, I'll deal with it. Popko is a giant jerk, I never could stand this guy, and this episode just cements that fact. I loved how Jackson stood up for Ramona. Join me next month when I cover S2E8: A Tangled Web, which aired Decembe

Hey Fuller House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full Full House Fuller House Podcast.

Hey Fuller House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered S1E3: Funner House, which aired on February 26, 2016. In this episode when Stephanie, Kimmy and DJ have a girls' night out and leave Joey in charge of the kids, things get wild out on the town and at home. Wasn't a fan of the nightclub stuff with the girls, but Joey babysitting the kids at home was fun to watch. and I also covered S1E9: War Of The Roses, which aired on February 26, 2016. In this episode after 1,000 roses show up without a card, D.J., Kimmy, and Stephanie must figure out which one of them has a secret admirer. This episode was kinda lackluster to me, nothing really special. Not happy with what the writers did to Becky's character though. They made her as maniac as DJ is. Join me next time for S1E10: A Giant Leap, which aired February 26,2016. In this episode Things get out of hand when Stephanie's new boyfriend, Hunter Pence of the San Francis

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Well, the time has come, we've reached the end of the Full House portion of this podcast as I covered the Series Finale, Full House S8E23 &S8E24: Michelle Rides Again Parts 1 & 2. Both episodes aired in a special 1 Hour Series Finale on May 23, 1995. I remember being so excited and yet so sad that the show I grew up watching as a child was coming to an end. I grew up with The Tanner family as I'm sure a lot of you listeners also did as well. Shared in the laughter, tears and the big moments, Jesse and Becky's wedding in Season 4 and the arrival of Nicky and Alex in Season 5. Here's the synopsis for Full House S8E23: Michelle Rides Again: PART 1: In this episode while out horseback riding, Michelle's horse runs into a tree, throwing her and causing her to hit her head. In PART 2: In this episode the Tanner family helps Michelle try to regain her memory. I think fo

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm covering the last episode in The Not So Great Of Season (IMO) Series, Full House S8E20: Up On The Roof, which aired on March 14, 1995. In this episode D.J., wanting to do an elaborate senior prank, lifts her principal's car onto the roof of the school using a crane; Becky offers to teach Michelle to cook. This episode was a step up from DJ's Choice, I'd even go so far to say I liked it a little more than Air Jesse, thanks to Joey's invention of Silly Doh, combining Silly Putty and Play Doh together for the boys to play with and Comet ends up eating some, but it's non toxic, so it's fine. Becky's "Comet's been out chasing Smurfs", joke absolutely slayed me. DJ's principal who was also Jesse's principal (wouldn't he also be Danny and Joey's as well) looks not much older than Jesse, how is that possible? The car on the roof prank was genius, but DJ's goody two shoes reaso

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm continuing The Not So Great Of Season 8 (IMO) Series with S8E16: Air Jesse, which aired on February 7, 1995. In this episode, after being recruited by D.J. to play in a charity basketball game, Jesse gets tips from Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Jesse CANNOT make a basket and knows nothing about basketball. What the heck! He played 2 on 2 with Danny, Joey, and Cousin Steve in Season 1. Did 7 years of knowing how to play just disappear? Kareem takes pity on Jesse, because apparently if you're a grown man you should automatically know how to play basketball. No way Nick Katsopolis wouldn't have taught his son how to play, he knows about baseball. He would know about this sport too. Jesse finds his magic sweet spot on the court that guarantees a basket every time the ball comes near it. He just wants his son's to be proud of him. Newsflash they already are, because you're their da

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I cover the last Series of Episodes for this Podcast with, The Not So Great Of Season 8 Series and the episode I covered to kick this off is Full House S8E12 D.J.'s Choice, which aired on January 3, 1995. In this episode Nelson and Viper compete to be D.J.'s boyfriend, and Nelson hires FRANKIE VALLI (himself) to serenade her; Michelle leads the family on a crusade to clean up a vandalized playground. Don't have much to say on this episode other than it's the weakest of the three in this Series of episodes and the Series of Full House (IMO). I could care less who DJ is romantically involved with at this point since she broke up with Steve in Season 7. Nelson is bland and basic, a Richie Rich type with a mullet and Viper is a dumpster fire of a human being. I mean he breaks up with DJ because in his mind they're moving too fast for him and then he expects her to just take him

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the last episode in the Joey's Comedy Career Journey Series, with Full House S5E6: The Legend of Ranger Joe, which aired on October 22, 1991. In this episode In this episode, Joey hits a string of great luck! He gets free cable, concert tickets and job interviews, he even gets a date with a hot girl, but then his luck runs short when his interview comes along. Michelle learns to tap and really annoys Stephanie, who taught her to tap. She annoys her so much that one day the shoes go missing...who do you think took them? Jesse debates what to name his twins, when they are born, and accidentally reveals to DJ that he has a secret about his past. We later find out that he got his name changed in kindergarten. I liked this episode, it was so much fun and had so much going on, Joey's riding high on a string of good luck, newspaper strike doesn't print a bad review on his

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the next episode in Joey's Comedy Career Journey Series, Full House S4E23: Joey Goes Hollywood, which aired on March 29, 1991. In this episode when Joey leaves for Los Angeles to begin filming his new television series with a prolific actor, the rest of the Tanner family decides to join him. I thought this was a good episode. Joey and the family get to meet Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello. Stephanie being teased about her name at school decides to change it to Dawn Ariel Tanner. Someone loves The Little Mermaid (1989) After hearing Michelle call Annette "Annette Funny-jello", I can't unhear it. Speaking of Michelle, she racks up DJ's phone bill by calling Tokyo (well hear about this city in Japan again in Season 6, Road To Tokyo) constantly since the person on the other end and her are on a first name basis. All she's doing is attempting and failing to cou

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the next episode in Joey's Comedy Career Journey Series with Full House S3E6: Star Search, which aired on November 3, 1989. In this episode D. J. and Steph try to teach Michelle not to go to sleep with her ballerina skirt on but Danny allows her to do it. Joey gives his comedy career a last chance and wishes a challenge in Ed McMahon's TV show 'Star Search'. I thought this was an ok episode, Joey gives himself a deadline to become famous or he did 10 years ago when an old video of him and Danny's college talk show is viewed by the whole family. Joey realizes that deadline is fast approaching for him to be famous enough to have his own TV show or at least be on Carson, Leno or Letterman. Somehow if he doesn't achieve this status of fame and success before the deadline, he'll feel like a failure in his own eyes. Never mind that his family will still love him no mat

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm kicking off a new Series, Joey's Comedy Career Journey Series, with Full House S1E16: But Seriously Folks, which aired on February 5, 1988. In this episode Joey's convinced that his comic debut in front of a talent scout is jinxed. I liked this episode, as it had a valuable lesson for both Joey and DJ. Joey's ready for his big night at the comedy club, with the possibility of being discovered by a talent scout from HBO looking for the next up and coming comic to give them their big break, an HBO Comedy Special. Sadly Phyllis Diller happens to be in the audience right as Joey's ready to take the stage, and boy is he upstaged since he never makes it up there and of course the audience is all laughed out once she leaves, also leaving is the HBO Talent Scout. Joey's is begging people to stay and listen to his act. It's late, they all have to get home. Joey ta

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the last episode in the Jesse and Joey's Career Duo Journey Series, Full House S6E4: Radio Days, which aired on October 13, 1992. In this episode Jesse and Joey are offered a job as Radio DJs. Jesse and Joey partnered in advertising back in Season 2 through 4, then for Season 5 they decided to each focus on their own careers, Jesse and his music and Joey with his comedy. Now in Season 6 and through out the rest of the shows run they are DJ Hosts better known as the Rush Hour Renegades. I thought this was a fun episode, a step up for Jesse and Joey getting themselves out there and heard all over San Francisco. We also see the last of Joey and The Ranger Joe Show as he can't stand his new co-host Jungle Jenny who also happens to be his boss's wife, she humiliates him in front of the kids and he ends up giving his boss an ultimatum, either she goes or I go and of co

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I continue my coverage of the Jesse & Joey Career Duo Journey Series, Full House S4E3: The I.Q. Man, which aired on October 5, 1990. In this episode Jesse and Joey's latest client asks them to compromise their morals while shooting a commercial. I thought this was a good episode, we see the last of Mr. Malatesta (Jesse & Joey's Boss), who thinks it's fine that the woman in charge of the company they're shooting a commercial for is basically sexually harassing Jesse. He pretty much tells Jesse do it or you're fired. Jesse is beyond uncomfortable with this woman and decides he can't do the commercial for IQ a men's cologne. Changes up their commercial set from a library with him wearing a smoking jacket and to a shower set with him wearing only a towel. You're selling cologne! Apparently it also comes in the form of roll-on deodorant. This episode is the bir

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen, here the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the next episode in the Jesse & Joey Career Duo Series), Full House S2E13: Working Mothers, which aired on February 3, 1989. In this episode after Jesse and Joey are offered full time jobs at an ad agency, they struggle to decide if they can do the job and still be moms to the girls. I thought this was a good episode, Jesse and Joey win over a big client for their boss with an amazing advertising pitch complete with Joey wearing many hats and playing different characters with a jingle for Hurry Mart, so catchy. On the spot their boss gives them full time positions, it's all great until DJ and Stephanie wonder who will take care of them if all three of the guys are working. News Flash, they're working while you're in school, you'll see them in the evening. Good grief. The girls (DJ and Steph) act like they're becoming latchkey kids (which for some reason was the w

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm kicking off the new Series, Jesse and Joey Career Duo Journey with Full House S2E5: Jingle Hell, which aired on November 11, 1988. In this episode Jesse and Joey start working together, while D.J. and Stephanie fight because Stephanie breaks some of D.J.'s stuff. I really enjoyed this episode, seeing the beginning Jesse and Joey's work partnership which would eventually lead them to venturing out on their own as independent advertisers and the birth of their company J&J Creative Services. Stephanie has been getting in DJ's craw as of late and she's had enough. She vows to get her back and does so rather creatively by tying Stephanie entire shoe collection together so it's like a train of shoes. Jesse and Joey learn that in order to be successful as partners they have to work together and listen to one other. A partnership can't work if one person is calling the shots an

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast, Today, I'm covering the last episode in the Best Friends Series, Full House S4E5: Good News, Bad News, which aired on October 19, 1990. In this episode DJ becomes editor of the school newspaper and faces backlash when she appoints Kimmy to a position for which she is unqualified. This was a fun and cute episode. DJ having been made the editor of the school paper, Kimmy jumps at the opportunity to work along side her best friend, however the only (I find this so hard to believe)position left on the paper was Sports Editor. There were a few boys there including Jake Bitterman (this is his last appearance on the show), we know that Jake wanted that position instead he got, copying the lunch menu. Whoopee! (NOT). After Kimmy's failed attempt at covering the school basketball team game (all she writes about is Robby Hudson the equipment manager, she doesn't even mention wh

Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered the next episode in the Best Friends Series, Full House S3E9: Dr. Dare Rides Again, which aired on November 24, 1989. In this episode Comet, the family's new dog gets his name as well as eats Michelle's ice cream. Michelle can't get over this, she'll tell it to anyone who will listen including Jesse's old school friend Pete. He and Jesse had a band back in high school "Feedback" and have a house party band reunion while Danny and Becky are in L.A. How many bands did Jesse have in high school, because in Season 4, he was also part of the band Discipline Problem. Also Danny and Becky are away on a talk show styling trip Fashion Expo '90 where they both get make overs. . Pete's carefree ways and single lifestyle start to rouse in Jesse how his life used to be before moving into the house and also before Becky. Little does Jesse know that Pete is a littl

Hey Full House Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm kicking off the Best Friends Series with Full House S2E15: Pal Joey, which aired on February 17,1989. In this episode Joey and Danny recall the day they first met. I loved this episode, it was so cute. Especially seeing how Danny and Joey met, the kids they got to play them are absolutely adorable. The young man who played Danny, Phillip Glasser, I got the chance to meet him last Summer. He was so cool. He also voiced Fievel from An American Tail as well as the sequel and the short lived television series in the early 90's. Danny gets jealous of all the time that Joey and Jesse are spending together since they've become partners in advertising and Danny feels he's being edged out of Joey's life as his best friend. Danny was being so immature and Joey calls him on it and Danny decides since Joey can't read his mind and understand the reason he's upset than Joey and he

Happy Full House Day Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm covering Full House S8E8: Claire and Present Danger, which aired on November 22, 1994. In this episode Danny asks the mother of Stephanie's friend Gia out on a date--causing Michelle to rebel. Joey is surprised when the French woman he asked out on a date arrives with her husband. Jesse is nervous about his first appearance with his new band. I thought this was an ok episode, not once I watch on repeat. Jesse's band outfit for his performance, yuck! He's trying to make a comeback with his new band, Hot Daddy and the Monkey Puppets. DJ and Viper, I will never support them as a couple. He's too old for her and doesn't treat her right (spoiler alert: he breaks up with her in DJ's Choice because their relationship is moving too fast for him and then attempts to win her back through song. Michelle could have just told Stephanie what she was feeling about b
