This makes me very nostalgic. I remember coming home on Fridays and watching all the Thank God It’s Friday show lineup!!! I love perfect strangers to… Bulki used to kill me! 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️💋
Yesh what happened was carl said let's go to da park in da woods far away. Carl murdered her. Came back home and said Judy ran away. He put fake tears and told his fellow cops a made up story and he said he will be doing an investigation. Personally.
I had the pleasure of meeting Ms Jo Marie last year. She was so pleasant and very beautiful. We took a picture. She recited a line from The show. I was behind the counter at work she said come on girl. She said we can pull our masks down for a few seconds to Take a picture. It made me so happy especially considering I not too long ago lost my auntie.
I ain't gonna lie, it took me a minute to realize Judy disappeared. Also I got to the point where I was telling my parents I was watching "Steve Urkel" instead of "Family Matters.
He should do Step by Step, too, and explain what happened to the little brother, Brandon, during the last season. He was barely seen in season 6 and completely disappeared in season 7 and was never mentioned again, but they were still acknowledging they had six kids, but it should have been seven, because they had Lily.
In regards to "Judy"...it was also said, back then, that "Judy's" real life mother was asking for more money and more screen time for her daughter. That is also what led to them just cutting her from the show.
If you don't ask questions you'll never get any answers and just cuz a child actors parents asked a few questions the producers basically fired the child actor? Hmm Idk about that cuz I feel that her parents would have sued the producers of the show for discrimination and illegal termination, but that's just my personal opinion on the situation.
@@MrsReggieRegg this long ass WRONG paragraph. That’s EXACTLY what happened: they wanted more money, the network said no, so she took her off the show.
Ms. Jo Marie (the first Harriet) was beautiful, hilarious and had a backbone. She was a perfect “mom” to her kids and to Carl. When the second Harriet came in, the dynamic shifted. Her character came off very entitled and whiny. I was turned off at that moment
Perfect strangers was such a good show ..omg and step by step. Family Matters hit always the serious issues ppl needed to see and be aware about .. loved them all
Yes! John Amos and Ester Rolle had strained conversations with the executives, regarding the direction of the show. It was supposed to focus on an intact black family, and instead it turned into solely focusing on JJ and his foolishness. These kids out here need one or two James in their lives ASAP!
We need Steve Harvey show !!!! And we neeeedssss hanging with mr. cooper, Romeo show, cousin skeeter. ALL THAT , lol we need to get into the whyte ppl shows too 🤣🤣🤣
Family Matters Season 4 Episode 20: The Judy That Never Was. Steve uses his time machine and goes back in time to the night when Judy was being conceived and accidentally prevents Carl and Harriette from doing the deed thus erasing Judy's existence.😆
I understand their frustrations but TALENT is TALENT. Not taking away from the other characters but Steve carried that show and the only reason I watched. He deserved the air time and the money. The experience probably traumatized that boy as a kid and left him with nothing but hurt and feeling guilty and that is wrong
The show was honestly good until the very end so maybe Judy just didn't fit in with the whole vibe of the show because I noticed between seasons one and four how the tone kept slowing increasing more and more as if ANYONE could've been written out at any given moment so I guess they didnt need Judy anymore and that it became this folklore that Jaime's parents were the issues.
In hindsight I can see why Darius started messing with Sydney Starr, they had Myrtle coming onto him for several episodes. They low key turned him out. TGIF definitely gave me nostalgia, that was a special era including In Living Colour, and New York Undercover as well. That other lady was JUST playing Aunt Viv and we finally accepted her as that and that point she was just a replacement mom it seems.
@@GAMETIME310-n8u I don't care what anyone say I think she caught her sister and her husband in the bed w each other and she couldn't handle it..RIP to her..she was soooo pretty
They don’t like him because he was to be there for one episode but took over and the whole became about him and he carried the show. I remember all us kids (I was a teen to be exact) saying, “did I do that?”, All the time. I’m sure there was mad Animosity going around that set.
She had allot of friends in the music business 🤔 obviously she was in music videos I find that stamenent interesting. I loved every single character even Waldo 😂.kellie Shanygne Williams , Michelle Thomas , Cherie Johnson do not get enough 💐 💐💐💐they were wonderful role models growing up even in there personal lives this cast and show was perfect through and through.

after watching all of these my childhood is runied , lol as a little girl who came from being abused , dirt poor , hardly any friends , i found happiness in black sitcoms i related with them bc they talked about real issues , as a child i had real issues as a kid i didn't realize that they talked about alot of the problems in the black communities as a child i only seen the problems and lessons as something i could learn from im only 24 so id have to catch all my shows on nick at night or dvd rentals i hate they none of these guys got along on any of the shows , i wish they could see how many people loved all of em , lord knows i sure did and still do , its sad , i wish the world would heal .
Man I used to love T.G.I.F. I had forgotten how much I used to love watching Perfect Strangers every Friday night as part of the lineup until it ended but I continued to watch T.G.I.F of course tho. I also remember watching family matters every day Mon-Fri at 5 p.m as my family would always watch as we had supper. I forgot Family Matters was a spinoff if Perfect Strangers until I saw this so thx

I wish they would do a reboot and have the show revolve around the kids, and bring Judy back, and have Carl, Harriette, and Rachel be reoccurring characters.
@@josephclegg3562 I think people would have been pissed by that. Then they would have had to come up with a story of where she been. Idk what they could have said.
They took their frustrations out on Jaleel,but it should've been aimed towards the writers & producers. He was a child & was not the one writing his roles
Exactly, Jaleel didn't ask to be a permanent part of the cast they probably did voice their frustrations to the writers & producers but was probably told to put up & shut up, it's our way or the highway in other words. "We're running things here Steve will be a cast regular in the meantime just show up say your lines it's our way or the highway or we'll either replace you or write you out of the show." Good grief, Jaleel was a kid the adults had no right taking their anger out on him I bet Jaleel wished he was permanently takin off the show after how he was treated.
Real talk, Steve's character did kinda of "carry" the show, but he was annoying to me. It got to the point that the shows became ridiculous with the machines changing him into Stefan...things just got stupid. And I was so annoyed by him being clumsy ALL the TIME!
Wow this is very well explained now that you put all the pieces together it makes perfect sense I have closure now on why one of my fav shows ended thank you for posting
The show actually replaced Judy with Steve. They symbolized the replacement at the end of episode 4:18 when Judy is bumped off the sofa & onto the floor after Steve plops himself in between Harriet and Carl. The final appearance of Judy was episode 4:19, Mother Winslow's wedding.
I agree about hollywoods need to put black men in dresses. They could’ve easily cast a female to play Myrtle. This really needs to end. Black men need to stop feeling the pressure to play a female role and stand their ground.
Sorry for this correction but, they weren't a suburban black family. They lived on the south side of Chicago. Unlike many other cities, you can't live outside Chicago and be a policeman, fireman, or a city employee of the City of Chicago. We have strict residency laws. No outsiders! No suburbanites!
I think Jamie's mom maybe had a problem with her daughter not getting screen time. We all know Little Richie got more parts and screen time than she did. He had a lot going on for a kid, but we never got to see what Judy's life was like while her character was in the script. Sean I swear you said some of these people's names wrong, but love you anyways Boo! I couldn't run a channel to save my life😁
I believe things would have worked out better if Harriette appearance would have been reduced, have Hariette appeared only in more necessary episodes instead of a different actor replacing Jo Marie. And I also believe if Judy would have reappeared, things would have been better for the show rating. Imagine having episodes revolving around Judy based on what's going on in this world sending the message; sexuality, sex/early pregnancies, pare-pressure, substance abuse, depression, and suicide. Then imagine Steve plays a role in those episodes.
The producers didn't force Jaleel to wear a dress and play a female character, Jaleel was ok to put on the dress and play Myrtle Urkle but after successfully playing a female character that Jaleel thought his peers at school would tease, bully and make fun of him that's when he broke down and told his dad that he didn't want to wear a dress or play a girl anymore so his dad shut that shit down but when he returned to school to praise and admiration from the other students instead of humiliation and cruelty he was shocked but pleasantly surprised and that's when he approached the producers to tell them that he's open to play Myrtle again if the situation ever presented itself which it did a couple of seasons later.
Nahhh at first Jaleel was NOT okay with playing that character & his dad even stepped in and called it off. But a few years later when he was grown he changed his mind about it 🤷🏾♂️
Keisha Knight Pulliam’s last name is pronounced PULLY-yum. And actually Cosby did want the show to reflect his real family, HE wanted Rudy to be a BOY, not girl. But Keisha won the producers AND Cosby over, impressing them with her maturity. Also Ms. Jackson’s name is MaHAlia. Now carry on witcha’ bad self.
Ooh they didn't get rid of Jamie because of budgets it was because of her greedy mother. Her mother was a no good use the kids type. I'd have to ask what her mom did because I can't remember, but I'm sure it was because of her mom.
Jaleel White has his own line of cannabis products called ItsPurpl. He has a strain called Purple Urkle. What a time to be alive. 😂

I don't think Sonic the Hedgehog would approve of it. 😏

You should do Boy meets world and talk about the racist situation that occurred on the set pertaining to Trina McGee (Angela).
He should do Step by Step, too, and explain what happened to the little brother, Brandon, during the last season. He was barely seen in season 6 and completely disappeared in season 7 and was never mentioned again, but they were still acknowledging they had six kids, but it should have been seven, because they had Lily.
