Watch: Jodie Sweetin & Andrea Barber Talk "Fuller House" Season 2

Believe it or not, the Full House costars have gotten even closer thanks to Fuller House.

"Oh, for sure," Andrea Barber told E! News. "And I didn't think it was possible to get closer. Just seeing each other every day—"

"I'm actually moving into her house later," Jodie Sweetin joked.

The cast of Full House remained close over the 20 years between Full House's end and Fuller House's beginning.

"Our kids play together, it's very cool. It's a full circle moment," Barber, Kimmy Gibbler on the series, said.

"It's amazing. We've remained close over the past 20 years, but obviously you start working together again and that just kind of becomes more and more routine," Sweetin, Stephanie Tanner on Fuller House, added.

Nearly every series regular from Full House's run returned for Fuller House season one and will pop back up again for season two. Nearly being the operative word. Bob Saget, Lori Loughlin, Dave Coulier and John Stamos are all there. Even Blake and Dylan Tuomy-Wilhoit returned as Nicky and Alex, Aunt Becky and Uncle Jesse's kids. Mary-Kate Olsen and Ashley Olsen sat out Fuller House season one and season two. Season one featured plenty of jokes and gags related to the missing Michelle Tanner and season two is no different. A character breaks the fourth wall in the Thanksgiving episode of Fuller House season two and references the headline-making absence.

"It's just: open invite," Sweetin said about the missing Olsen twins.

"Door's always open, anytime they want to come," Barber added.

In addition to Thanksgiving, Fuller House season two will also see the Tanner clan celebrate a bevy of holidays, from Christmas to Halloween. For Halloween, Sweetin donned a costume that would make the walkers on The Walking Dead jealous.

"I did about four and a half hours of makeup…It was full Walking Dead…I didn't even recognize myself, literally looking in the mirror I couldn't see myself in there until I talked. It was a very strange experience," she said.

Viewers will also see Sweetin's Stephanie get more involved with D.J.'s (Candace Cameron Bure) kids and develop her singing career more. She also gets a boyfriend, viewers got a little glimpse of her love life in action in the trailer where she's seen kissing…Jimmy Gibbler. Yes, Kimmy Gibbler's brother.

"You meet Jimmy Gibbler and he's just as quirky as any Gibbler should be. Adam Hagenbuch who plays Jimmy Gibbler is a fantastic actor. I think audiences are going to fall in love with him," Barber said.
