After Stamos reposted the video, Hannah shared the news with Waylen, however, her mom notes she may be too young to understand the iconic gesture.

“We have told her about John Stamos sharing her video,” Hannah says with a laugh, “but because of her age, she doesn’t really understand social media. All she keeps asking is if this means she finally gets to go on an airplane to San Francisco to meet Uncle Jesse.”

Reflecting on the positive feedback received from TikTok users and Stamos, Hannah is happy to see thatFull Houseis still relevant today. “It’s pretty awesome to know that after 37 years, the show is still a staple in households across America.”
