... why did they even create the Myra character? It just sucks that there was a perfect girl for Steve, and he still had to end up with that shallow bitch Laura.

Well, maybe they thought that they wouldn't have him get Laura.

I don't have anything against Laura, at all. Maybe she's a little shallow. I think it's good that Steve got the girl of his dreams.

If it had been real life, there's no way that Steve would still have considered Laura as his "dream girl" after all those rejections. There's something called giving up and moving on, no matter how much you might loved a person at first. In real life, Steve would have stopped thinking about Laura early on, even as soon as he met that nerdy girl, who he "gave away" to the president of the chess club. And then of course we have Myra, who was nicer and prettier than Laura, and who loved Steve as he was from day one. Laura on the other hand wouldn't even be seen with Steve in public before he stopped wearing suspendors and doing some other "geeky" stuff and started lowering his voice. There's only one thing, that Steve shared with Laura, that he didn't share with Myra, and that was the principle of not having sex until they were married. But regarding everything else, Myra was still the girl for Steve, and Laura was just a shallow bitch.

Maybe he might not have given up in real life. Some people are really obsessed with other people to the point of stalking them 24/7 if they could.

Some people in real life never give up. I know my ex brother in law never gave up even after my sister got a restaining order against him.

That was my thought too. Steve was strong and had a great self-confidence and didn't give up. And Laura did like him much better in the later seasons.

But the way Steve kept wanting Laura, even after all those rejections, it almost made him seem like he was one of those psychopaths, who can't take no for an answer from someone they love. It wasn't cute at all, and them getting together in the end was just stupid. I still like Steve though, up to the 9th season.

Well, We have all different opinions. And there's nothing wrong with it. I thought it was cute that they finally got together. :)

I never could stand them as a couple. It was just wrong and phony.

I agree, the chemistry was no there for them as a couple.

I know, not only that, Myra's character was too one-dimensional. When you saw her, you knew what she was going to do. So there was no need for Myra.

Furienna

Well, I totally like Myra. But since it seems like they always intended to hook up Steve with Laura, there was no point to add such a character.

Jessica

You're right. Steve and Laura ended up together, so Myra was not needed. They dated for a couple years, but they did not end up. But, you already know. I prefer Steve and Laura. Myra was good, but kinda crazy.

GCW
02-23-2008, 11:28 AM
I don't think Myra should have ever accepted the terms Steve gave in the first place. From the beginining Steve said if Laura ever starts having feelings for him, he would dump her. Think about it if a you love someone and they say to you I will date you but if the person I really love, loves me back, I am gone. Pretty shady deal.

Furienna

Yeah, but Myra really loved Steve, so she took what she could get, I guess. And when Steve told her he was going to turn himself into Stephan for good in order to get the Laura bitch, he also told her "But you always knew this could happen." And her reply was "Yeah, but I thought you would change your mind, or that she would die." So she had obviously hoped Steve would give up on Laura, when he started dating her instead. And that's what he should have done too.

Exactly, I agree, I find it so funny when you call Laura the Laura bitch LMAO, :lol: I was thinking about when Myra would be all over Steve like in the drive in and other instances and how Steve would slow her down, but I wonder if Laura was be all over him like Myra was, would he stop her the way he did Myra.

Furienna
02-23-2008, 12:31 PM
Well, that was the only thing, that Steve and Laura had in common, really. They both wanted to slow down and take it easy. So I don't think Laura ever would come on to Steve as strongly as Myra did, so that situation would never happen.

Jessica
02-23-2008, 02:31 PM
Yeah, but Steve always loved Laura more. And Myra accepted that, even though she didnt like that. And I wonder, did Steve ever really, really loved Myra? He said he did, in the episode when he was on a Talk show.

Lorimar Television
02-23-2008, 05:54 PM
Yeah, that's why she was so protective of Steve over the "bitchy" Laura. lol

Furienna
02-23-2008, 06:55 PM
Of course. She knew who was a threat.

Jessica
02-24-2008, 12:31 PM
Yeah, I thought so. Myra was a nice gitl, but crazy. Cause she always jumped on Steve and kissed him.

Furienna
02-24-2008, 12:41 PM
She wasn't crazy. She was just horny. LOL!

Jessica
02-24-2008, 05:07 PM
Ok, she was. Haha! But too much. Lol

Furienna
02-24-2008, 05:37 PM
I guess they exaggerated it for the sake of comedy. I still understand her though, and I really liked her.

Jessica
02-24-2008, 05:58 PM
Yes. I havent seen all episode yet, but does somebody know why Myra left? I mean, I've seen a clip when Steve broke up with her, and she sais it's not over. Michelle got sick, is that why, or is it another reason?

Lorimar Television
02-24-2008, 06:10 PM
No, he starts dating Laura, so he broke up with her. But, Myra was in love with him, that's why she's jump on him. BTW DCJessica, I thought you said they didn't air the later seasons from where you live.

Jessica

Ummm, so its ok for Myra to be a psychopath than? She was insane. And Steve rejected Myra. So the same can be said, even more so, for her.

You obviously hate Laura, you must have been in a similar situation as Steve and is taking it out on a fictional character...lol.

She wasn't crazy. She was just horny. LOL!

Right, but if a guy did that to her, it would be sexual harassment. It wouldn't be aw, he's just horny LOL!

The two situations are different though. Steve was after this bitchy shallow girl, who never could appreciate who he really was, while Myra loved Steve like nobody else did, and he would have been happy with her, if he only had forgotten about stupid Laura. Steve and Myra was a better couple by far than Steve and Laura.

You obviously hate Laura, you must have been in a similar situation as Steve and is taking it out on a fictional character...lol.
I don't hate Laura. But she was never the right girl for Steve, Myra was, and I hate the ending of this show.

Right, but if a guy did that to her, it would be sexual harassment. It wouldn't be aw, he's just horny LOL!
Well, it's not fair, but on TV shows, it's like girls are allowed to do things to guys, that guys aren't allowed to go to girls. Steve talked with Myra about calming down a couple of times too.

Tell the truth! I notice that a lot of black men hate Laura Winslow because they were rejected by the Lauras in their school. Black males hate on Laura Winslow the hardest.

Come to think of it, was (https://mobile.twitter.com/mattzog/status/1604401290221600768) Steve Urkel (https://www.themarysue.com/steve-urkel-was-a-creep/) really the first incel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incel) "nice guy" on television? He felt entitled to Laura because he was "nice" (https://www.reddit.com/r/TrueUnpopularOpinion/comments/11yyleu/steve_urkel_was_an_awful_character_and_made/). She kept saying no (https://www.lipstickalley.com/threads/was-steve-urkel-the-original-incel-who-couldnt-get-a-laura.4312788/) until the very end when she falls in love with him. Basically, it's arguable that women in this world, exist as nothing more than objects and if you wear them down enough (https://www.resetera.com/threads/i%E2%80%99ve-been-rewatching-family-matters-and-damn-steve-urkel%E2%80%99s-behavior-towards-laura-totally-counts-as-harassment-right.627619/), you'll get them in the end.

People keep saying that, but I can't agree with it because I have no sympathy for Laura.
She was extremely superficial and drooled over handsome *******s.

I don't know, but in my opinion, Myra is the one who was more deserving of Steve because she loved him the way that he already was. He didn't have to change in order to make her love him.

God bless you always!!!
