NERDWATCH 2017 continues!!!

First Girl Meets World
Then Fuller House
SOON Extended Family Matters

 

[Zee-Row]

Reginald VelJohnson doesn't age much.

 

[Big Blue]

Uh no she was replaced

No, there was only 1 Aunt Harriete. It's as simple as googling it

 

[Teggy]

Without the beard, Reginald looks like he got...younger.

 

[Eppy Thatcher]

Dude... Eddie and Waldo turned out clean af!!!

Loved this show back in the day. This is cool

 

[freeofgreed]

Who the hell is that kneeling next to the table?

EDIT: wait that's Waldo? Holy shit...

 

[Loxley]

Hey why not let's reboot this show. I really dug it. Cast still look great. Fucking do it!

The original show had a lot of behind-the-scenes drama.

 

[Mystic Theurge]

Do the Urkel dance!

 

[HStallion]

I don't think Jaleel has any desire to play Urkel again

What about Stefan Urkel?

 

[Oblivion]

And Judy no where to be seen.

First thing I thought even before clicking.

Spoiler

And she's rightly scorned, btw

 

[The Real Abed]

Family Matters was my jam. And Carl just looks weird without a mustache. Wow.

 

[Travo]

Poor Judy.

 

[legacyzero]

Winslows still look fantastic

 

[Knightmarre]

No, there was only 1 Aunt Harriete. It's as simple as googling it

I didn't believe it either but its true.

Thats the final episode. Judy Ann Elder was Harriete.

 

[Tigress]

If they didn't have Erkel I'd be fine with the show. Talk about some one who kept harassing some one who kept telling him no and the show would treat her like a bad guy cause she didn't like being stalked. Even had one episode where she felt bad about being "mean" cause he couldn't take no for an answer. And at the end he gets the girl teaching us that it is ok to keep harassing some one you want and eventually they'll turn around.

 

[charpunk]

We're not gonna talk about Judy.

You are my favorite.

 

[Zee-Row]

Is the porno thing the reason they got rid of Judy's actress?

 

[Ronin]

I read earlier this week that they were demolishing the house.

 

[DeathPeak]

Where are the pictures of Steve? I just see Stefan.

 

[The Kree]

Harriet and Carl just decided not to age.

 

[unpopularblargh]

What kind of low res shots are these?

The EW aka easy way.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Omg didn't realize the hottest girl on that show died

 

[Baron Von Beans]

I never saw the later episodes, but this was probably my favorite show floating in the sea of "family comedies with a dash of drama from time to time". I always loved watching Urkel, seeing his awesome inventions. Despite his in your face dorkyness, I liked the guy and looked up to him somewhat.

Plus, I always wanted his car, that thing was boss as hell

 

[RiderKairuu]

Is the porno thing the reason they got rid of Judy's actress?

She didn't do porn until many years later. I can't remember if she was difficult on set or the parents wanted more money for her role..I'll have to Google that lol.

 

[Neece]

Is the porno thing the reason they got rid of Judy's actress?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question but the "porno thing" happened like a decade after they got rid of her.

 

[whytemyke]

And Judy no where to be seen.

Just like the last half of the show!

 

[FyreWulff]

Is the porno thing the reason they got rid of Judy's actress?

She went up the stairs and never came back down

 

[Fatalah]

Can someone please put the character names above each person?! I'm having a hard time identifying them.

 

[ryutaro's mama]

only if it was urkles son playing the nerd. jaleel having to take up the role again would just be sad.

You basically write Urkel in 2017 like Sheldon.

 

[The Kree]

Is the porno thing the reason they got rid of Judy's actress?

Nah, she was still a kid back then. I read that they just had trouble finding things to do with her character and she was something they could remove to save money, so they retconned her out of the show. I think they knew by that point that the show was going to be Urkel heavy.

 

[MisterHero]

Where are the pictures of Steve? I just see Stefan.

Steve became the world's first trillionaire and successfully integrated Stefan's personality without his changing machine. He still wears glasses but kindly removed them for the shoot.

The family is standing in a holographic recreation of the Winslow homestead.

 

[CampbellzSoup]

No, there was only 1 Aunt Harriete. It's as simple as googling it

Then maybe you should google it.

 

[Various Artists]

for some reason i thought the dad had died. probably confused him with uncle phil. has he been in anything lately?

He was in an episode of Always Sunny in Philadelphia last season or so.

 

[Skellig Gra]

Love me some family matters. Waldo and Richie came out the best,although they were chumps on the show so nowhere to go but up.

 

[Jest Chillin]

If it wasn't TGIF, it didn't exist.

 

[mAcOdIn]

I remember being sad that I couldn't be home to watch TGIF shows. I would see the commercials, and it always looked like such a party (they interacted with the other show characters for promos if I remember correctly). Every Friday my family had to be somewhere until like 9pm. TV life was so sad back then because there was no TIVO, internet tv streaming, or on demand stuff.

Yo, VCRs want a word with you. Don't knock one generation for being able to watch a show later when you could have too. Granted, a little less convenient than a DVR but we didn't know any better back then.

 

[Piichan]

Damn, they all aged really well.

 

[MechaX]

They got fucking Waldo out here but no Judy

 

[ryutaro's mama]

They got fucking Waldo out here but no Judy

You say that like Waldo wasn't a bigger part of the overall show than Judy who lasted, what, 1 season?

 

[maruchan]

Did the actress who played the grandma die?

 

[Ivan 3414]

They got fucking Waldo out here but no Judy

Waldo was in more episodes than Judy by the end of it, no reason why he shouldn't be there

 

[MechaX]

You say that like Waldo wasn't a bigger part of the overall show than Judy who lasted, what, 1 season?

She lasted 4, maybe 5.

But yeah... given how much Waldo + Eddie duo episodes occurred, that still might be a true statement at the end of the day.

Edit: Checked, she lasted until 4th season

 

[FyreWulff]

how the hell do carl and harriet look younger than they did 20 years ago

 

[jstripes]

I watched it every week when it first aired, minus later seasons, and I can't remember half the characters. (25 years ago, haven't watched since.)

My brain is bad.

 

[Ploid 3.0]

We had one, but I couldn't record my shows (too little to buy my own tapes. I actually forgot about VCRs hah). As I got older I started utilizing the VCR to record a lot of stupid stuff hah. I even modded non recordable tapes to be able to record. I remember bringing a vhs of me playing the final boss of FF7 to school and playing it for the class when we had a substitute teacher. Good times.

 

[vatstep]

Did the actress who played the grandma die?

I just checked and if she were alive today, she'd be 105 years old. So unfortunately, yes.

 

[Socreges]

Nooooooooo

 

[x-Lundz-x]

Man right in the feels.

 

[Guzim]

I love these photos so much. I only wish there was a photo of Carl and Steve since their relationship was so important to the show.

 

[FyreWulff]

Seriously

same person

it was like the whole TV family decided on an average age they would get to, just that some of the cast had to age backwards to get to it
