Full House: S4E10: Terror In Tanner Town (Master Of Disaster Episode)

Hey Tanner Fans, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I covered S4E10: Terror In Tanner Town, which aired on November 23, 1990. In this episode Danny's new girlfriend introduces her mischievous son to the family. This is the first of two Rusty filled episodes that I will be covering for the month of April appropriately titled Master Of Disaster Episodes. It's interesting hows this episode came out shortly after the release of the movie Problem Child (starring the late John Ritter) which would later spawn a sequel a year later and of course preceded the biggest box office hit to grace the movie screens in November, Home Alone (I reviewed this movie over a year ago and is available to listen on the Looking Back On My Wonder Years Podcast) starring Macaulay Culkin who himself would play a bad seed of sorts in 1993's The Good Son (which I covered on the Looking Back on My Wonder Years Podcast last fall). This kid Rusty is clearly going through some hard stuff, his Dad moving out, his parent's divorce, seeing his mom dating again and using the Tanner family as an outlet for his pain and frustration through harmless pranks. I love how this comes back in Fuller House Season 2 Happy New Year Baby where Max DJ's middle son locks Ramona and Lola and also Jackson and Popko in their rooms via jump rope and DJ says how she never should have told Max about Rusty's prank. Granted if the next episode is any to judge Rusty by, I'd say he just gets off on tormenting people, no one gets hurt mind you (physically) he just loves messing with their minds as we see in the next episode I will cover later this month S4E11: Secret Admirer, which aired on December 7, 1990. In this episode The Tanners invite Cindy and Rusty over again for a backyard barbecue. Rusty writes a phony love letter which causes confusion as each member of the household reads it in turn, all believing it to be from a different person. Join me next week for a special episode for Candace Cameron Bure (DJ Tanner Fuller), I'll be covering S1E22: DJ Tanner's Day Off, which aired on May 6, 1988. In this episode D.J. skips school and sneaks down to the mall to get a celebrity's autograph. If you'd like to EMAIL The Podcast Go To: [email protected] Stay Home, Stay Healthy, Stay Positive
