Did you really think Season 2 -- which came to Netflix on Dec. 9 -- would be the end of Fuller House? No way, Jose.

After delivering a double-whammy of nostalgia with two seasons in 2016, the Netflix-produced revival of the hit '90s sitcom Full House will return in 2017.

The whole family -- plus Kimmy -- gathered together on Christmas Eve to announce the news via Instagram.

Fuller House premiered on Netflix in February, digging into the next chapter of life for the Tanner family. A second season followed in early December.

The series focuses on sisters D.J. (Candace Cameron Bure) and Stephanie (Jodie Sweetin), who are all grown up now with kids of their own. When D.J.'s life falls into disarray, she moves back into the family's luxurious San Francisco home, splitting the responsibilities of parenting with housemates Stephanie and Kimmy Gibler (Andrea Barber).

Where the original TV sitcom focused primarily on the kids and how their lives were shaped in the midst of a similarly unusual parenting situation -- three dads, in that case -- Fuller House caters to a now-adult audience. It engages with topics -- such as infertility, online bullying, single parenting, and more -- that the original sitcom wouldn't have touched.

After the Instagram announcement went live, Bure and Sweetin expressed their own excitement about the news on Twitter.

There hasn't been any official Netflix press release to go along with the Instagram announcement, but it looks like some familiar faces will be back for Season 3. Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, John Stamos, and Lori Louglin all pop up as a wrapped gift passes from Tanner (to Gibbler) to Tanner.
