Iconic Hit Show Full House, with John Stamos Set to Produce and Guest Star;
Discussions with Additional Full House Cast Members Ongoing
Beverly Hills, CA., (April 21, 2015) — Netflix, the world’s leading Internet TV network, has ordered a 13-episode season of a new multi-camera comedy from Warner Horizon Television, Miller-Boyett Productions and Jeff Franklin Productions. Fuller House is the long-awaited sequel to the iconic hit series Full House. Created by original Full House creator Jeff Franklin, Fuller House will premiere exclusively across all Netflix territories in 2016.
Candace Cameron-Bure, Jodie Sweetin and Andrea Barber are set to star in Fuller House, with fellow Full House star John Stamos set to produce and reprise his original role of Uncle Jesse as a guest star in the new show. Discussions with Full House stars Bob Saget, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Dave Coulier and Lori Loughlin regarding guest appearances in Fuller House are ongoing.
In Fuller House, the adventures that began in 1987 on Full House continue, with veterinarian D.J. Tanner-Fuller (Cameron-Bure) pregnant and recently widowed, living in San Francisco. D.J.’s younger sister/aspiring musician Stephanie Tanner (Sweetin) and D.J.’s lifelong best friend/fellow single mother Kimmy Gibbler (Barber), along with Kimmy’s feisty teenage daughter Ramona, all move in to help take care of D.J.’s two boys — the rebellious 12-year-old J.D. and neurotic 7-year-old Max — and her soon-to-arrive baby.
“As big fans of the original Full House, we are thrilled to be able to introduce Fuller House’s new narrative to existing fans worldwide, who grew up on the original, as well as a new generation of global viewers that have grown up with the Tanners in syndication,” said Cindy Holland, Vice President of Original Content for Netflix.
In a joint statement, executive producers Robert L. Boyett, Thomas L. Miller and Jeff Franklin said: “The continued support of Full House fans of all ages for the last 28 years has been astounding. It is an honor and a thrill to catch up with these beloved characters and explore their lives today. The love you saw on the show was real. The cast has remained a loving family off screen all these years. We are as excited as our fans to finally bring Full House back to life.”
Fuller House is from Miller-Boyett Productions and Jeff Franklin Productions in association with Warner Horizon Television for Netflix. Robert L. Boyett, Thomas L. Miller and Jeff Franklin are the executive producers of the series, which was created by Franklin. John Stamos is a producer.

21:40 - High Maintenance - HBO to produce new episodes of hit comedy
HBO GOES GREEN WITH HIT WEB COMEDY SERIES HIGH MAINTENANCE,
CO-CREATED AND WRITTEN BY KATJA BLICHFELD AND BEN SINCLAIR,
TO PRODUCE NEW EPISODES EXCLUSIVELY FOR HBO
LOS ANGELES, April 20, 2015 – The hit web comedy series HIGH MAINTENANCE is coming to HBO with six new episodes, it was announced today by Michael Lombardo, president, HBO Programming. Following a Brooklyn pot dealer who delivers to clients with neuroses as diverse as the city, the show is created and written by the married duo of Katja Blichfeld (Emmy®-winning
casting director of “30 Rock”) and Ben Sinclair (“Sisters” and “Big C”), and executive produced by Katja Blichfeld, Russell Gregory and Ben Sinclair.
“HIGH MAINTENANCE has proven to be one of today’s most highly-acclaimed online comedies,” noted Lombardo. “We are thrilled to bring this sophisticated and clever series to our HBO audience.”
“We have been growing this show organically for three years now, and we are elated to bring it into full maturity at HBO, the gold-standard of both online and televised entertainment,” said Blichfeld and Sinclair.
HIGH MAINTENANCE stars Ben Sinclair as “The Guy,” a friendly pot dealer whose clients include an eccentric group of characters, revealing the dynamics of their lives. From the unexpected and offbeat to the predictable and mundane, the witty series provides a glimpse into the daily routines of the customers and how they light things up.
The web series earned Blichfeld and Sinclair a WGA award for their episode “Rachel” and has been hailed as “wryly funny” by Entertainment Weekly, “fantastic and gemlike” by Time and “luxurious and twisty and humane” by the New Yorker. Featuring a wide array of New York artists from theater, TV and film, previous guests on the show have included Hannibal Buress (“Broad City”) and Dan Stevens (“Downton Abbey”).
In addition to presenting new episodes, HBO will also make the previous 19 episodes, which originally debuted on Vimeo, available later this year on HBO, HBO NOW and HBO GO.
HIGH MAINTENANCE is produced by Janky Clown Productions; executive produced by Katja Blichfeld, Russell Gregory and Ben Sinclair; directed by Katja Blichfeld and Ben Sinclair; cast by Katja Blichfeld; edited by Ben Sinclair.
