Full House: S6E17: Silence Is Not Golden (The Serious Episodes Series)

Happy Full House Friday Everyone,

Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast.

Today, I covered the next episode in the SERIOUS Episodes Series for April Full House S6E17: Silence Is Not Golden, which aired on February 16, 1993.

In this episode when Stephanie is paired with a classmate she hates for a school project, she finds out that his father is beating him, and is sworn to secrecy.

This episode broke my heart as a child viewer watching this episode for the first time and also as an adult reviewing the episode for the podcast.

My heart went out to Charles. Kudos to both this kid actor J.D> Daniels who also played Peter in the first Might Ducks movie (1992). He did a phenomenal job as a child of abuse.

Also Kudos to Jodie Sweetin and John Stamos as they really carried this episode towards the end, especially the scene where Jesse tells Stephanie what happened to Charles after Jesse reported his father to the authorities.

Out of all the SERIOUS Episodes I'm covering this month this to me is the most powerful and really the darkest episode EVER of Full House.

I also 100% identified with Michelle's out of control Funny Buddy phone bill, although mine was The Soap Opera Hotline for Spoilers on my favorite Soap Opera All My Children, when I was 11.

Join me next week when I cover Full House S8E9: Stephanie's Wild Ride, which aired on November 29, 1994.

In this episode Stephanie and Gia meet a couple of older guys at the mall, who invite the girls to go for a spin. When the guys turn out to be totally reckless drivers, Stephanie is torn between her better judgment, and her desire to let loose and have fun. Meanwhile, the adults all become addicted to Michelle's video game.

Have a great weekend everyone!
