** Malachi Pearson, who played Stephanie's friend Brian Kagan, would later go on to voice [[{{Film/Casper}} Casper the Friendly Ghost]].
* RootingForTheEmpire: A lot of fans love Davey Chu, Stephanie's opponent in a spelling bee, because somebody finally beats a Tanner at something and he gets some good digs in at her. He's also never rude or obnoxious to anyone in the episode, is a good sport throughout both spelling challenges, and Danny points out in-universe he's the DesignatedVillain to Stephanie's poor sportsmanship.
* TheScrappy: Michelle's whiny posse of friends Aaron, Lisa, and Derek fit this trope perhaps even more than Michelle herself. Special mention goes to Aaron Bailey, generally portrayed as the most obnoxious of them all.

** One example is the 1993 episode "The House Meet the Mouse" where the Tanner family visits Ride/WaltDisneyWorld. The current film at the time was 1992's ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' (in which Scott Weinger voiced the titular character), and later attractions such as Disney's Animal Kingdom (opened in 1998, five years after the episode premiered) are not mentioned. Later in the episode, Danny and Vicky are in a restaurant where the former is about to propose to the latter, until they got a call from the restaurant's owner that Michelle is missing. Back then, cellphones were a luxury item, so payphones and landlines are still in use. While losing a child is still a great concern, [[TechnologyMarchesOn but with cellphones being more affordable nowadays]] and even some kids around Michelle's age carry them, the problem could be resolved quicker by simply calling her.

** In Season 8's "All Stood Up" Stephanie is playing with some Lego Duplo blocks as she's waiting for her school dance date to pick her up. Because her date never arrives, she ends up creating the then-skyline of the New York City skyscrapers with Danny pointing out the two World Trade Centers.



** Michelle, meanwhile, constantly does whatever she wants [[KarmaHoudini with little to no consequences for her actions]], the adults virtually catering to her every whim, and even her sisters are made to look wrong or insignificant in contrast to anything she does. This is especially prevalent between the time she's a baby and when she's just starting school. As she got older and had more instances of actual punishment, such as Jesse refusing to give her the lead in the school play and substitute teacher Joey disciplining her for acting up in class, she got very little sympathy from the audience, in spite of the show trying and failing at making her appear as undeserving of this.
** The audience is suppose to feel bad for Stephanie moving into the bathroom by claiming how neither DJ nor Michelle want to share a room with her, so this was her only option. The problem is that Stephanie was particularly pushy, rude, and bratty in this episode. She repeatedly and obnoxiously butts in on DJ's study date, being hypocritical on how it's her room and she can do as she pleases while ignoring that DJ has the same right as it's also her room, finally ending with her recalling an embarrassing moment of DJ's at an amusement park ride, the same place DJ is trying to have the potential date, which is enough for the guy decline the offer and leave. This is the last straw on what convinces DJ to request her own room. When the family discusses Michelle swapping rooms with DJ, they allow Stephanie a chance to present a counter-argument, but all she does is insult and name-call Michelle and how this isn't fair to herself. But the story tries to paint DJ and Michelle as the bad guys despite them having very valid reasons for being against sharing with Stephanie.

** The show's views on education come off as outdated. During the arc about staying in school, the show seemed to have the mentality that if someone drops out of high school it's entirely the students' fault and refuses to consider the fact they don't accommodate possible learning disabilities when the dropout rate is exceedingly high for a middle-class area. Also, one episode has Jesse studying while listening to music and it's treated as a bad way to study as if there is only one effective way to study and no different ways to learn.
