Fuller House, the Netflix reboot of Full House, is gearing up for season 2, and it’s just been announced one of the world’s most known boy bands – New Kids On The Block – will make an appearance on the show.
The stars of the hit Netflix series Jodie Sweetin, Andrea Barber and Candace Cameron Bure welcomed the group to the set Thursday, wearing their favourite NKOTB fan shirts.

The Step By Step hitmakers – made up of Donnie Wahlberg, Danny Wood, Joey McIntyre, Jordan Knight and Jonathon Knight – will star in an episode tied to D.J.’s (Bure) birthday, which Kimmy (Barber) and Stephanie (Sweetin) manage to ruin, according to TV Guide.
In an effort to make up with D.J., her pal and sister somehow recruit NKOTB to crash the bash.
In February, Bure revealed in an interview with Rotten Tomatoes that they always wanted the boy band to make a cameo appearance on the original Full House.
“We never got New Kids on the Block,” she said.
Barber added: “We really want New Kids on the Block though. We’ll put our vote for that.”

Star and executive producer of the sitcom John Stamos told E! News: “There are a few guest stars that could be surprises for everybody that I’m working on, but as far as the show, we’re just in a better place to make a good, solid sitcom now.”
Two guest stars fans shouldn’t expect to see are Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen who played the beloved Michelle Tanner.
“We’ve tried everything. I think we’ve kinda given up,” Sweetin admitted to Entertainment Tonight, speaking about the Olsen Twins.
The duo, who are focusing their attention on their fashion brands, were hesitant to jump into acting again.
Stamos told Howard Stern in January: “They were just afraid of acting. They hadn’t acted; they don’t consider themselves actresses.”
Fuller House season two is set to premiere later this year.
