As you would expect, Fuller House got very nostalgic for its final season, which included an ambitious triple wedding, and some very surprising guests. Not among those to arrive for the special day, however, were Kimmy's parents, simply known as Mr. and Mrs. Gibbler. The couple has long-eluded the franchise, so why did Fuller House not introduce them, even after bringing them up in the midseason premiere? Candace Cameron Bure has some insight about that.
On paper, you would think Kimmy's parents would come to witness their daughter and son get married. (To different people, of course, with Kimmy's younger brother Jimmy having married Stephanie Tanner during the triplet of nuptials.) But like the Olsen twins unrealized return as Michelle, it never happened, and as Bure explains, for a good reason. On Fuller House's decision, Bure told Insider:
It was something that they thought about and because we knew it was the last season, I think it was hard for the writers to introduce what would have been two very significant characters.
. . . Because they would be so significant, I think they thought it would detract from the wedding.
Some could argue that NOT seeing the Gibblers was also a distraction, considering the magnitude of the event they failed to arrive for on Fuller House.
