Full House fans all remember Uncle Jesse’s infamous “Have mercy” line or Uncle Joey’s woodchuck puppet.

Full House has returned to TV- Netflix, where all fans can remember those moments with Fuller House.

The cast includes returning popular characters, such as Uncle Jesse, Uncle Joey, and Aunt Becky, but brings in fresh faces as well.

Fuller House still knows how to incorporate those sappy family moments that once attracted Full House viewers decades before.

While Fuller House will never compare to the original brilliance of Full House, the familiarity of the cast and set make it a comfortable update for fans.

Fuller House isn’t the only reboot of a once popular TV show available on the site, though. Netflix has recently created new episodes of the early 2000s show Gilmore Girls.

Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life explores the lives of the original show’s main characters, Lorelai and Rory.

The reboot focuses each episode on a season and explores each character’s change throughout the four seasons.

The show’s focus on issues such as romance, friendship, and family is one of the main reasons why fans will love it for the years to come.

Overall, Gilmore Girls is a lovable TV show that people of all ages can enjoy.

The reboot of the classic focuses further on these topics but also mixes in those heartfelt moments between a mother and daughter.

Popular TV shows focusing on the lives of various teens have been brought back as well, including the Canadian TV show, Degrassi.

Degrassi: Next Class revives old characters from the previous series in the franchise, Degrassi: The Next Generation, beginning in the early 2000s.

The reboot includes old faces from the franchise, also bringing in newcomers.

Even though not all the old beloved characters returned for the Netflix series, the show still contains those elements of teen drama that have kept it popular for so long.

No matter how many reboots the Degrassi franchise creates, the show’s focus on young adult lives keep teens coming back for more of the drama.

The popularity of Netflix combined with the multitude of reboots of loved TV shows assures this trend is not going anywhere anytime soon.
