Netflix has released the Fuller House Season 2 trailer, showing a helping of Tanner/Gibler holiday hijinks.
The Fuller House Season 2 trailer has arrived, proving that a certain iconic San Francisco sitcom townhouse remains teeming with the zany family chaos of the Tanner-Fuller and Gibbler families. However, it’s immediately evident that weird romances are abloom from within and without.
The bizarre, The Bachelor-esque love triangle between D.J. (Candace Cameron Bure), new co-worker Matt (John Brotherton) and old high-school flame Steve (Scott Weinger) takes a poetic turn when its revealed that both guys have found new significant others due to D.J.’s over-deliberating. Plus, it seems that Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin) was sucked into a romance with a Gibbler. Not so fast, shippers! It’s not Kimmy, but, rather, her brother Jimmy (Adam Hagenbuch).
Additionally, it seems that proximity and burgeoning hormones are starting to influence the relationship between D.J.’s son Jackson (Michael Campion) and Kimmy’s daughter Ramona (Soni Bringas). Finally, dad Danny (Bob Saget) is back and, upon his 60th birthday, is fielding a personality crisis almost akin to Bud Bundy’s “Grandmaster B” rapper persona on Married… with Children.
Fuller House will arrive just in time for Christmas season when it goes live on Netflix on December 9. Check out the Season2 trailer below!

Fuller House Season 2 Release Date Announced
Netflix effectively tapped into the 80’s/90’s nostalgia-lined legacy of ABC’s former TGIF block centerpiece Full House when the 21 year-in-the-making follow-up Fuller House debuted earlier in 2016. The streaming giant quickly renewed the sanguine sitcom for Season 2 after generally positive reception seemed to dwarf the poo-pooing of jaded reviewers. Thus, with expectations high amongst the fanbase, Netflix has whetted appetites with the Fuller House Season 2 release date announced.
Netflix has officially announced that Fuller House Season 2 will be up and binge-ready on December 9, 2016. The big date drop was coupled with a new teaser poster for Season 2 showcasing the makeshift blended family of sorts who occupy the classic San Franciscan Victorian abode. As evident, primary cast members Candance Cameron Bure (D.J. Tanner-Fuller), Andrea Barber (Kimmie Gibbler), Michael Campion (Jackson Fuller), Elias Harger (Max Fuller), Sonia Bringas (Ramona Gibbler), twins Dahiell and Fox Messitt (Tommy Fuller Jr.) and Fernando (Juan Pable Di Pace) are all back and ready for more zany hijinks and culminating, heartwarming life lessons updated with a 21st century twist.
It will be interesting to see if Netflix can continue to ride the same wave of nostalgia with Fuller House Season 2 that propelled the inaugural season with such critic-defying gusto. The show will apparently be pulling out all the stops to keep its cultural hunger sated with an intriguing array of guest stars. Tapping into era-appropriate nostalgia, late-80’s, early-90’s heartthrobs New Kids on the Block, who waxed ecstatic, telling an entire generation of screaming teenagers that “You Got It (The Right Stuff)” will cameo in an episode. Additionally, Alan Thicke, who starred on 1980’s sitcom Growing Pains, which made Candace Cameron Bure’s brother Kirk Cameron a teen idol, will reportedly be a guest star in an episode.

However, Fuller House will also be advancing its Full House legacy with even more throwback characters such as a recast version of DJ's former high-school nemesis Kathy Santoni (originally played by Anne Marie McEvoy). Additionally, Nelson Burkhard, DJ’s former obnoxious, opulent, spectacles-sporting high school boyfriend (originally played by Jason Marsden,) will return in Fuller House Season 2, this time reportedly played by comedian and former Queer as Folk star Hal Sparks. Plus, we'll finally meet Joey's oft-mentioned, never-seen wife Ginger and his kids located Las Vegas. Joey's family actually became an intriguing mystery in Season 1, with some folks even theorizing that they were simply a sad delusion he concocted that his friends acknowledged out of courtesy. However, Season 2, Episode 6 will reportedly introduce “enthusiastic, upbeat, fun-loving magician” Ginger and rest of the Gladstone brood.
So, there you have it. Fuller House Season 2 will be making itself available everywhere you look on Netflix on December 9.
