According to data from Symphony Advanced Media, season one of “Fuller House” was Netflix’s highest rated original series, pulling in an average audience of 7.33 million viewers in the 18-49 demographic in the first three days in which it was available. But viewership fell off in the second season: For example, the season-two premiere drew a 3.32 rating, down 67% from the season-one premiere’s 10.16 rating.
“Fuller House” is a continuation of the ’90s ABC series “Full House,” with veterinarian D.J. Tanner-Fuller (Candace Cameron-Bure) recently widowed and living in San Francisco. D.J.’s younger sister/aspiring musician Stephanie Tanner (Jodie Sweetin) and D.J.’s lifelong best friend/fellow single mother Kimmy Gibbler (Andrea Barber), along with Kimmy’s feisty teenage daughter Ramona, all move in to help take care of D.J.’s three boys — the rebellious 12-year-old Jackson, neurotic 7-year-old Max and her newborn baby, Tommy Jr.
Bob Boyett and Jeff Franklin serve as executive producers. “Fuller House” is produced by Miller-Boyett Productions and Jeff Franklin Productions in association with Warner Horizon Television for Netflix.
