The 1993 show spent three entire episodes setting up the series; the first show established the premise and characters and gave Martin a reason to move in with Frasier. The second spent time on the fallout, the adjustment for Frasier and Martin and the compromises that living together will mean. The third explored the relationship between the three Crane men and began the Niles and Daphne dynamic.

The last half decade saw Fuller House at the vanguard of a wave of reboots and revivals of 90s fare, including Will & Grace, Roseanne, Night Court, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Twin Peaks, Quantum Leap, The Crystal Maze and even children’s shows like Ducktales and Rugrats. For me, a middle-aged man, I choose to believe this golden age will last forever. Surely the industry’s not exploiting the last years of my relevance before the shows I love move to networks with names like “Vintage” and “Sundial” betwixt ads for stair lifts and funeral homes.
