Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSteve Urkel was only supposed to appear once, but the audience's response was so overwhelmingly positive that the producers decided to make him a regular character. He became the most popular character of the show, so much that merchandise based on him was made, which included a talking doll, trading cards, posters, books, lunch boxes, T-shirts, and a limited-edition cereal called "Urkel-O's".
- GoofsGuests always walked out of the Winslow's front door and then to the left, but in the picture that is shown as the Winslows' home, there is no walkway to the left. There are a few stairs outside that lead up to the front door, but walking to the left after exiting through the front door would only lead into a wall.

Featured review
A show for the family
Family Matters was the perfect show for the family. It wasn't sappy or annoying like most of the other family shows on tv. Carl and Steve Urkel were the best characters and the funniest. The show, like others, began to lose quality over the years and met cancellation. In my opinion, the show was better than all the other TGIF shows ever.
