Here’s everything that happened in the Fuller House series finale, and what the ending means. After five seasons, the Netflix sequel to Full House has come to an end as the Tanner-Fuller family closes its doors once again to the public just as DJ Tanner-Fuller (Candace Cameron-Bure), Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin), and Kimmy Gibbler (Andrea Barber) start their new lives together. The show’s final episode was full of cameos from familiar faces, but with some notable absences from some key characters.
Netflix split Fuller House’s season 5 into two parts – initially dropping its first 9 outings in December 2019, which ended on a surprise marriage proposal to DJ by her high school sweetheart, Steve (Scott Weinger). With both Stephanie and Kimmy already engaged to Jimmy (Adam Hagenbuch) and Fernando (Juan Pablo Di Pace) respectively, a triple wedding was inevitable – in fact, the girls even decided just that before the midseason finale. It was a jumping point for what was to expect in the remaining episodes of the Full House spin-off released in June 2020, with a majority of the outings devoted to wedding planning and other related shenanigans. Of course, there are the occasional appearances by the older cast members – Danny (Bob Saget), Jesse (John Stamos), and Joey (Dave Coulier), but for the most part, the story was focused on the ladies and their upcoming wedding.
