CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The "Full House" reboot, "Fuller House," premiered on Netflix to awful reviews last Friday.

Vox called it an "inescapable nightmare," while A.V. Club said it's "like a porn parody without the porn."

How rude.

Fact is, "Fuller House" wasn't made for critics or has anyone at all really with a 2010s sensibility. The show exists solely for the fans, a throwback sitcom that is unapologetically corny, silly, heartwarming, full of innuendo, often cringeworthy and, make no mistake about it, fully in on the joke.

"Some of the early episodes have a very kind of meta nod to the fact that everybody's been watching this show for 30 years," show creator Jeff Franklin told USA Today. "We all know everything about the actors and the history of the show, so we have a little fun with that."

So, if you're willing to play along through an admittedly uneven 13 episodes, here are 10 things waiting for you on the first season of "Fuller House."

Sexual subtext: "When did 'Full House' become so raunchy?" is something I found myself asking a lot watching the reboot. Some of the jokes are innocuous enough -- a veiled reference to marijuana, for example -- but an exchange between Uncle Jesse and Aunt Becky about a sex act in the final episode is downright dirty. Cut it out!

Missing Olsen twins: "Fuller House" throws shade at Mary Kate and Ashley no less than three times over the course of the season. At one point, Kimmy buys an expensive dress from the real-life twins' clothing line and remarks "It's no wonder they don't need to act anymore." The funniest bit, however, is when the girls take turns reciting Michelle's famous catchphrases like "You got it dude!" in a drunk voicemail to their absent sister.

All the catchphrases: Speaking of catchphrases, they're all here. Steph says "How rude!" in the first three episodes alone. D.J.'s "Oh Mylanta!" never really caught on back in the '90s, but producers sure seem hell bent on making it stick this time around.

Holy chalupas!: It's a classic sitcom question: what came first, the breakout character or the catchphrase? It's clear "Fuller House" wants D.J.'s middle son, Max, to be the show's breakout character as he's the only one in the brood given his own catchphrase. Whether or not "Holy chalupas!" is actually successful is up for debate.

Speaking of the kids...: While Max is the most developed character, Jackson, Ramona and Tommy often get lost in the shuffle. As far as I can tell, Jackson is a credit-card stealer; Ramona only exists to react to her mom's weird behavior and Tommy, well, he's just a baby. It's something producer John Stamos recognizes. "Next season, if we get one, I want to develop the kids more on the show," he told People. "Have them carry a little more story, a little more emotional stuff."

The pop-ins: "Fuller House" uses just the right amount of Uncle Jesse, Danny, Joey and Aunt Becky in striking a balance between nostalgia and establishing its own identity as a new show. While everybody loves hearing John Stamos say "Have mercy!" Lori Loughlin as the baby-crazed, romance-starved Rebecca Donaldson steals every scene she's in.

That's so meta: Who knew "Fuller House" would be the meta show of 2016? There are inside jokes and pop culture references everywhere. But the best one is in Episode 12, when Steve plays Alanis Morissette during his '90s throwback date with D.J. Her response asking "Do you know who that song is about?" is priceless because we know that Dave Coulier, aka Joey Gladstone, is the target of Morissette's ire in that song, "You Oughtta Know."

Choreographed dance numbers: The Miller-Boyett sitcom factory gave us "The Urkel Dance," so it's no surprise they've gone back to the well on "Fuller House." But four choreographed dances in 13 episodes seems like overkill. If you must watch one, pick the Bollywood dance number in Episode 11.

Perplexing cameos: Singer Macy Gray and Dancing with the Stars' Val and Maks Chmerkovskiy appear in the third episode. Even Gray seems confused by her appearance, reminding viewers that she, in fact, has won a Grammy. The best cameo award, however, goes to San Francisco Giants slugger Hunter Pence. Playing Steph's new boyfriend in Episode 10, Pence is clearly reading cue cards when he meets her family. He also doesn't seem to really mind when Steph breaks up with him in front of a stadium full of people. Again, how rude.

Team Steve vs. Team Matt: "Fuller House" spends much of the second half of the season laying the ground work for the love triangle between D.J., Steve and Matt. Steve is D.J.'s high school sweetheart who exists solely to pay service to the fans. Veterinarian/underwear model Matt is simply the kind of man that doesn't exist in real life. Still, D.J.'s decision at the end seems like a cop out.

"Fuller House" is now available to stream on Netflix.
