*Family Matters* was a popular sitcom that aired on ABC, chronicling the life of the Winslows, a middle-class African American family in Chicago. The series initially focused on the everyday experiences of police officer Carl Winslow, his wife Harriette, and their children. However, the show became a cultural phenomenon because of its breakout character: their nerdy and accident-prone next-door neighbor, Steve Urkel.
With his high-pitched voice, suspenders, and iconic catchphrase, "Did I do that?", Urkel's hilarious inventions and unrequited love for Laura Winslow stole the show. His immense popularity eventually shifted the series from a family drama to a showcase for his zany, science-fiction-based comedy. The classic sitcom has ended, but sign up for a reminder just in case it returns.
