Why was Full House cancelled?
In 1995, Full House was one of ABC’s top 25 rated shows.
Things were started to change during the 90’s as shows like Friends, Seinfeld, and Frasier were on the rise and family centered sitcoms were on the way out.
Despite its popularity, the show became too expensive the produce with an average of $1.3 million per episode, due to rising producer fees and cast salaries, there was simply not enough return for ABC to keep the show running.
