It's Not My Job

Even a show I love like Full House has its share of bad episodes. While none are necessarily "horrible" some are just subpar.

Jesse has been making a living as an exterminator, working for his father. Changes to his life are being made and he decides to quit the family business after he successfully sells a jingle. Jesse figures he can be a successful jingle writer after selling only one. That is so immature. Is he 6-years-old? That's like thinking you could defeat Tiger Woods in a gold tournament after scoring a hole-in-one, or you could score against David Beckham in a soccer game just because you made one lousy goal. I know that San Fransisco is a big city, but jingles don't come out like insects do. Even if they did, certainly not enough to make a living off of. I know that Jesse just wants to make a living with music, but he should have stayed in the family business until his regular music career took off. Now, he will guarantee not make as much as when he was with his family.

Jesse and his father are too similar in personalities, so they butt heads with each other.His father learns to respect Jesse's decision, but I sided with him.

The best part of this was the subplot with Stephanie being afraid of the dentist.

Jesse finds himself faced with a delimna. Instead of killing bugs, he wants to make jingles and get his music business off to a good start. But when his parents show up for supper that night, he just can't bring himself to tell them just how he feels. He feels he'll break his father's heart, and he does!

This is so realistic! How many times do we hear about families broken up because someone didn't want to do what their parents wanted them to do? But this whole problem was solved in under thirty minutes - not realistic, but a good example of what could happen if more families sat down and talked things through. His father may be hard-headed, but he listened, and that's important!
