Happy Full House Friday Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast. Today, I'm covering the last episode in the Joey's Ladies Series, Full House S7E16: Joey's Funny Valentine, which aired on January 25, 1994. In this episode Joey thinks he has found his dream girl, comic Roxy Martin, but she turns out to be a nightmare. Honestly, this synopsis is only half right. Yes, Joey meets a female comedian, calling her a nightmare is a bit harsh. She's a sweet lady, it's just that her level of comedy is different than Joey's, while Joey likes to do impressions of characters and situations, Roxie roasts people, which to me feels like an insensitive form of comedy (pointing out someone's faults or flaws and what you don't like about them) and when Joey invites the family out to see Roxie's performance, they are immediately taken aback when she includes them in her act. Joey sees the family didn't care for her roasting of them, but then Joey gets defensive, saying "you not liking her act is the same thing as saying you don't like her as a person, is that what you're saying?" This side of Joey aggravates me, he didn't give them a heads up to her kind of comedy and that she was including them in her act, he totally ambushed them. Luckily for them, the family sees Roxie in a whole new light after sitting down to dinner and they welcome her into the fold. Roxie is the only one of Joey's Ladies that makes a second appearance on the show. We also have a side plot with a beautiful parrot called Little Sid, that is used as a sidekick for Big Sid's Electronic Store. He's so overjoyed at the return of his bird that he lets the girls pick anything from his catalog for absolutely FREE! Steph wants a Karaoke Machine (Dumb), DJ wants a BIG Screen TV (makes sense), which is funny because you know once all the flat screen TVs come on the market, that Standard Definition BIG SCREEN TV is going to a Goodwill. Danny leaves it up to Michelle (massive eyeroll) she gets the dumbest thing that she probably could have gotten for free, a cardboard standee of BIG Sid and LITTLE Sid. I hope you all enjoyed the Podcast Episode and I'll be back in MARCH for a New Series of Episodes! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: [e-mail]
