Candace Cameron Bure, the actress who spent eight seasons as D.J. Tanner on FULL HOUSE before reprising the role on Netflix’s FULLER HOUSE, isn’t ready to let the Tanner family rest.
“Honestly, I would love to do the third iteration of FULL HOUSE, like FULLEST HOUSE or something,” Bure told Woman’s World in comments published this week. “That would be the dream.”
Bure’s remarks land as fans keep asking whether a franchise now closing in on four decades has one more chapter in it. She didn’t mention a script, a network or a timeline — just an actress who clearly hasn’t tired of the role that made her a household name.
“It’s been a dream to have been a part of a show that has a real, true legacy,” she said.
FULL HOUSE premiered on ABC in 1987 and ran eight seasons before wrapping in 1995, then spent the following decades in steady syndication. Netflix revived the franchise in 2016 as FULLER HOUSE, reuniting Bure with Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber for five seasons, with Bob Saget, John Stamos, Dave Coulier and Lori Loughlin returning in supporting roles before the sequel series ended in 2020.

“It’s never been off the air in over 35 years,” Bure said. “FULL HOUSE means so much to so many people.”
Movieguide® has tracked Bure’s corner of Hollywood for years, and this isn’t the first time she’s talked about the show in terms bigger than ratings. She’s called the FULL HOUSE cast “literally family”, and she’s opened up about a stunt that nearly injured her while filming FULLER HOUSE, the kind of detail that shows how much of herself she poured into the reboot.
That thread runs through how Bure talks about her career more broadly. She’s described her Christian faith as something that “naturally flows” from her rather than a message she inserts into projects, and she’s said her goal was never “the next project or making more money or being a bigger star.”
A third FULL HOUSE remains an idea, not a deal — no network has signed on, and Bure herself stopped short of promising anything beyond a title she likes. Still, for a show that built its entire premise on a family that keeps coming back for each other, a leading lady still hoping for one more reunion is a fairly fitting way for the story to keep going.
Whether FULLEST HOUSE ever makes it past a wish and into an actual pitch meeting, Bure’s loyalty to the project says something families raising kids on ’90s reruns already suspected: some shows earn a legacy not because they were flawless, but because the people who made them still believe in what they were trying to do. For Movieguide® readers who’ve watched Bure navigate three decades in Hollywood without losing her footing, that kind of consistency is worth noting on its own.
