In the realm of television nostalgia, few series evoke as much affection as "Full House" and its Netflix revival, "Fuller House." However, one notable absence from the latter was the iconic Olsen twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley, who portrayed the beloved Michelle Tanner in the original series. While "Fuller House" delighted fans with the return of familiar faces, the Olsen twins' decision to opt out raised questions about missed opportunities and potential earnings.

As "Fuller House" embarked on its journey, fans eagerly anticipated the reunion of the Tanner family, only to discover that Michelle Tanner would be notably absent.

Their earnings from the original series ranged from modest beginnings of $2,400 per episode as infants to a significant $80,000 per episode in later seasons.
