Goofs
Joey states that neither Tom nor Jerry ever talked throughout the Tom and Jerry cartoons. While neither one of them talked in most episodes, there were a few episodes where Tom had one or two lines. Later Tom and Jerry were more verbal in "Tom & Jerry: The Movie".

Quotes
D.J. Tanner: Strange but true facts: Stephanie and Michelle are the exact same ages Stephanie and I were when we first started sharing a room. Isn't that amazing?
Joey Gladstone: That IS amazing. That's like Kennedy had a secretary named Lincoln, and Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy!
Jesse Katsopolis: [to Joey] What's amazing is you're able to dress yourself in the morning.

DJ's Own Room.

There is some good and some bad here. This is one of the last on a series of transitions this show is going through.

Fed up with Stephanie's annoyance, DJ goes to the adults for the umpteenth time about wanting her own room. This time, she has good points, with the clinchers being Stephanie and Michelle being the same age now as it was when she and Stephanie first started to share a room. Stephanie loves being with DJ and belittle Michelle, so at the end she is left out in the cold.

The subplot involves Danny and Joey having the hots for Jesse and Becky's lamas trainer while Becky has mood swings.

Two flaws: the subplot wasn't very funny and it feels like they forced Stephanie being obnoxious. She insults Michelle and wonders why her little sister doesn't want to share a room with her. And the scene that finally drives DJ to asking for her own room seemed way out in left field. But the pep talk between them at the end was good.

Good episode, not great.
