Did I Do That? A Look Back At Family Matters

Family Matters Crossovers

Family Matters started as a spin-off of Perfect Strangers, but the show also did a number of crossover episodes with other sitcoms. In season 4 of Full House during the episode “Stephanie Gets Framed,” Steve Urkel helps Stephanie Tanner deal with her anxiety about wearing eyeglasses.

Urkel’s name also popped up on Boy Meets World in the episode “Beauty and the Beast” when he sent a chain letter to Corey Matthews. The two never appeared on each other’s show, but in Girl Meets World, Reginald VelJohnson (who played Carol Otis Winslow) had a cameo as an NYPD officer. Those weren’t the only times Urkel ventured out of his own show.
