About this show

What matters most? Family, of course! Over its nine hit seasons, Family Matters brings us a hilarious slice of middle-class Americana — along with one of TV's wackiest characters, nerdy genius Steve Urkel. The extended Winslow family redefines the word "togetherness" as their home splits at the seams with chaos, confusion and laughter.

I have to be honest... FULL HOUSE IS LIKE 10 TIMES BETTER! I mean, I love the show, but it's always the same thing. Steve breaks something or tries to win Laura's love, Carl eats junk food, and Laura tries to push Steve away... All while Eddie brags about his good looks and charm. But I do love Harriette's sassy attitude and Mother Winslow's stories about how she was such a "Party animal" back in her day.

It's so amazing and beautiful how Steve knew all along that he & Laura belonged together from kindergarten. He told Laura in season 2 he would wait forever for her. It took Laura 15 years to finally realize Steve is the one for her after getting the double proposal & no man would ever love & adore Laura more than Steve, more than life itself. You clearly see it after watching the series that Steve's heart always belonged to Laura & they end up getting married even though it's not shown onscreen.

I loooovee looove love this show I grew up with this show!!!! I remember sitting in my family room watching it everyday. Its really such a crying shame that they can't and don't have shows like this anymore nowadays... It covered every important issue that everyone sweeps under the rug. Subjects that are so taboo today when really something should be done about these subjects. Amazing actors and actresses funny af has u peeing yourself because that's how funny they are.
