Look. We’re not going to talk about the fact that “Work It” debuted with 6.1 million viewers last night, and how even though that’s not too good, it’s TWO AND A HALF MILLION MORE than recent episodes of “Parks & Recreation” and “Community.” We’re just not. If we don’t talk about it, then I can just keep pretending it didn’t happen, and then I won’t end up in the hospital with a blood pressure of SO MUCH over STILL KIND OF A LOT. After all, “denial” isn’t just a river in Egypt — it’s also an inexpensive preventative measure against strokes.
Instead, I’m just going to post this video of the cast of “Happy Endings” singing the theme to “Full House,” and move right along. Let us never speak of this again.

I hope Jesse Frederick made some serious bank from this.
Ranked by Frederick theme song: #1. Perfect Strangers, #2. Full House, #3. Family Matters, #4. Step by Step, #514. Two of a Kind
Don’t be ridikulis.
Happy Endings is OK it gets very cheesy sometimes and is horrible when the needy girl does ANYTHING. I don’t think I like them enough to watch them sing…
But seriously 6.1 million people watched Work It?! seriously?! I think its time to nuke ourselves into oblivion.
Almost 17 years after it aired and the thought of “Full House” still makes my blood boil.
This is an example of nostalgia being bad
I agree Tim. I watched Full House as a child, and found it entertaining apparently. But the only thing I can remember from that show is uncle Joey saying “Cut it out” and making the hand gestures. Jesus Christ that’s depressing.
Nostalgia should be focused on things we’d actually go back to like 80′s bush, Bosom Buddies and 80′s bush.
AG, what are you talking about? “Everything Zen” didn’t hit the airwaves until like ’95.
I want to be clear about something, just so there’s no confusion. I don’t like shows like Full House or Saved by the Bell because I thought they were good or because I’m nostalgic for them. I like them because I love terrible tv/movies. SO MUCH. I could sit here for hours telling you how and why they’re all hilariously bad. And I probably will. So, there’s that.
Oh, and I also wanted to tell all of you I love you for not being like that one guy in the Kevin Smith post earlier. Sometimes I wish some of you would focus more on making jokes (that’s how I got invited to start writing here way back when), but you are all in my good graces today compared to that douchecanoe.
*thumbs up to DG*
You got it, dude!
@DG: thank you for being a friend.
Good point Danger. The difference is I could go on a diatribe about the Saved By the Bell cast’s dating history and often do when I drink Jaegermeister. I went to a trivia night and one of the categories was SBTB and I fucking killed it.
What kind of paddle do you use with a douchecanoe?
douchecanoes are powered by bro-pellers.
@DG
Thanks for the reply. To be clear, especially as an enjoyer of bad movies/tv as well, I love most of the posts about nostalgia. Full House is just the one that drives me over the edge. The new staff has been doing a great job. Keep it up!
/dick joke
It’s too bad Dave Coulier had to work the night shift and missed the episode.
6.1 million people watched Work It? 2012 is starting off as the worst year ever.
Would love to see where these 6.1 million people reside. Somehow the southeast pops into my head.
Guess the Mayans were right after all.
Don’t forget Ohio
Enough people say something is the worst thing to ever happen to TV and some people are going to slow down to look at the carnage…..at least I PRAY that’s what happened here.
Whenever conservative slam “San Francisco values” I always retort by saying that Danny Tanner, the host of “Wake Up San Francisco” taught me everything I need to know in life.
Whenever some douche talks about San Francisco values — by which they mean, ever so subtly, FAGGOTS — I always think of SFPD icons like Dirty Harry and Steve McQueen’s Bullitt.
But then I imagine they’re making out, and that proves the conservatives right. Damn you, Hollywood! Damn you!
Cool?
[www.youtube.com] Sums up my feelings nicely.
Also, I call dibs on Elisha Cuthbert
She’s made a nice recovery, for a few years there she looked like the love child Meryl Streep tried unsuccessfully to abort.
Elisha is adorable, I love this show, if this show could somehow cross over to Cougartown and have a paintball war with Community I would die a very happy man
