Family Matters Season 1 DVD:“Hi, everybody!” Fans of ’90s sitcoms know those words mean Steve Urkel has come to call, bringing lots of geeky, goofy fun with him. A spinoff of Perfect Strangers, Family Matters began as the at-home adventures of elevator operator Harriette Winslow and her multigenerational family. But midway through the first season, Jaleel White made a one-shot appearance as neighborhood nerd Urkel. With oversized glasses, undersized body, screechy voice and indomitable self-confidence, Urkel proved irresistibly funny, turning White into an overnight sensation and a new star of the show. Join Urkel and the Winslows for the 22-episode debut season of the hit series that proclaims love matters, laughing matters, Family Matters!

Family Matters Season 6 DVD: Questions of identity and destiny rise to the surface in the sixth season of this fan-favorite family sit-com. As the antics of Steve Urkel threaten to steal the show in a fit of nerdtastic slapstick, the Winslow clan shows it has more than enough heart to handle sharing the show with a bona-fide pop culture phenomenon. This is immediately evident in the season opener – a two-parter that switches around the previous season’s “Urquelle” sequence and places Carl squarely in Steve’s shoes. Eddie soon leaves the nest, for college and an apartment with Waldo, but trouble with the opposite sex send him packing for some much needed advice. While Steve romances Myra as only an Urkel can, the show flexes its serious side with episodes that examine homelessness, gun violence, and suicide. But fret not! The fantastic and the funny have ample screen time as Urkel and Eddie must fly a plane, Carl must teach Steve how to swim, Steve learns how to Kung Fu fight for Laura’s honor and the whole clan goes to Disney World!

You’d think things might get easier after surviving giant fruit and monstrous house cats but then you wouldn’t know Urkel. Quicker than a “Did he do that?” the Winslow clan and company are faced with accidental nude encounters, entomologist infatuations, IRS audits; foreign jails; Urkel on diet pills (accidentally); and the return of the one-of-a-kind Southern belle, Myrtle Urkel (also played by Jaleel White). While Myrtle renews her quest for Eddie’s affections, she forges unique alliances with the likes of Myra (Michelle Thomas) and Stefan (Jaleel White again). Steve and Laura (Kellie S. Williams) must survive their senior year, from Homecoming to Prom. Will winning Laura’s heart be Urkel’s ultimate “Did I do that?” All of this in a 24-Episode Collection

Williams), Myra (Michelle Thomas) and Maxine (Cherie Johnson) to retrieve them in this 24-Episode Collection.
Family Matters Season 9 DVD: Family Matters’ final season ups the ante with a multicharacter tour-de-farce from series star Jaleel White, while completing Laura (Kellie S. Williams) and Eddie (Darius McCrary) Winslow’s journeys to maturity.
