Enough laughs and heart were put into this to warrant this a thumbs up. Despite not being very strong, I could relate to the main story. The problem is they kinda copped out. But this is only a 30-minute show. I am sure there are movies like this that can explain it all in much richer detail.
Let's start off with the subplot: Becky tries to get Jesse to come to her baby shower by fooling him because she knows that's the only way it will happen. Or is it? After a few close calls, Jesse dangles a big ice cream sundae in front of Michelle to get her to talk. It works. He then gathers all his macho motorcycle pals to crash the party. That's all the hilarity.
The main plot has Stephanie wanting a career in dance. Danny explains all the sacrifices but she doesn't care. He also sees it as a means of living his own success story through his daughter. She soon gets on the verge of a major dance burnout.
Jodie Sweetin was about 10 at the time of this, already doing the show for 5 years. For a child, this is a lot. I wonder if some of what happens in the episode really happened to her. Then there's Danny living vicariously through his daughter. I hate when parents do that. And I can relate to it. This is where I wish the episode got deeper into. But I said earlier, it's a 30 minute show!
