My brother and sister and I watched Sabrina the Teenaged Witch every week. And the whole fam loved Family Matters! Urkel is one of the best characters ever created for TV.

The first few seasons were kinda lame, and the last two or three were pretty shaky, too. But in the middle there: priceless. Back when the family included Rachel, 3J wasn't around, Payton-Nobel still played Hariette, and Jaleel White was still young enough to play Urkel convincingly. That was the Golden Age. :big_grin:

Jaleel will forever be remembered as the world's most famous nerd and the original voice of a certain blue blur for American audiences.

Wow! Very impressive! My head is spinning! I only knew of the Perfect Strangers/Family Matters/Full House connection. Didn't know it extended to Boy Meets World, too.
How's this for a mind boggle: Salem Saberhagen from Sabrina the Teenage Witch also appeared in Boy Meets World, Teen Angel, and You Wish. So there is a Perfect Strangers/Family Matters/Full House/Boy Meets World/Hangin with Mr. Cooper/Step by Step/Sabrina the Teenage Witch/Teen Angel/You Wish connection.

The universe keeps expanding!

Wasn't the appearance by Salem a sweeps stunt? For some reason I can recall they all went back in time in different time periods, and Salem appeared in each episode for that reason.

Every show, it seems, has a time-related episode and this connection with Salem just adds to that.

Yeah, "Full House" was one of my favorite shows, never missed it.

I was there when...

Stephanie cut off Uncle Jesse's mullet! Oh, the horror!:eek:
Bahaha! How many times have we lamented about this horrific moment? :concern:

I learned such classic catchphrases as
"Have mercy!"
"You got it, dude!"
"You're in big trouble, mister!"
"How rude!"
"Nerdburger with Cheese"
"Cut...it...out!"
"It's not for you, huh?"
I still try to use those on a semi-regular basis. ><

As for TGIF shows, Sabrina the Teenaged Witch was on around the same time as Boy Meets World was and I really liked both of those shows. And Salem is AWESOME.

Oh, as for Full House storylines, how about when they are in a Casino for some reason (think it was in Vegas and I'm pretty sure it was a two-parter) when Steph (I think it was Steph) pulls the slot machine handle while Joey was away and wins the car, but they can't keep it because she had to 'fess up that she pulled it and not joey.

That's one of my faves, as is the Disney vacation one, simply due to my love of classic Disney.

Yeah, it was a two-parter...I forget why they were in Vegas too!:stick_out_tongue:

Joey gives Steph a quarter, and she puts it into the slot machine. Naturally, she hits the jackpot, but in true "Full House" fashion, Joey admits he wasn't the one who actually pulled the lever, so he loses out on the car. Or something like that.
