| Steve Urkel was a Powerful Sorcerer (Posted on 11/15/12 at 10:52 am)

quote:
We’re supposed to believe that Steve’s extraordinary accomplishments are all a result of his genius intellect, but no human being in the history of existence has been able to do the things this teenage nerd can do. If he were a real person, his scientific discoveries would have completely redefined our way of life. Steve Urkel would have singlehandedly propelled our species into its next stage of evolution. But to the rest of the characters on the show, Urkel’s miracles are treated like annoying everyday occurrences. We never see someone at the end of the episode go “Steve, maybe if you work the kinks out of your machine that turns anybody into Bruce Lee you can sell it to the military and make a fortune.” It’s as if the other characters are purposely turning a blind eye to all the fricked up things he’s able to do.
I've always thought about this myself. Steve was able to bring the world cloning, teleportation, time travel, etc.
shite even if he didn't want to share some of his inventions with the world he could have at least used his time travel machine to go kill Hitler or something. Instead he uses it to go play fricking pirate with Carl.

However, since Urkel was sort of a one-note geek, the show quickly devolved into some sort of science-fantasy farce featuring clones, transformation chambers, time-travel and evil sentient ventriloquist dummies.
In fact, the show went so completely over the top with these ridiculous concepts that the viewer can only be left with one logical conclusion.
Steve Urkel is a damn witch.

If only Urkel could have used his machines to turn himself into a more charismatic 30 something year old man, so he could begin his rise in politics through his Chicago neighborhood and and later run for the presidency where he could rule us all.
Oh shite.

I once read that the mom left the show bc it had jumped the shark.
It went from being a feel good sitcom about a middle class AA family to a science fiction show about a huge nerd next door.

That’s right, if you weren’t one of the three people still watching Family Matters in its final season (when it moved to CBS to die) then you probably don’t know that Steve and Laura finally end up together.
Did not know this...
I love how all the cast changes are sorcery

Has she been in anything since? Seems like a poor decision there
