Eddie-He thought Eddie was cool and looked up to him so he acted different

Mother Winslow-always gave her a compliment and never did anything dumb

Waldo-Thought he was a IDIOT and always seemed be normal around him





He only seemed to be at his NERDIEST when he was around Carl, Harriet, and Laura.


For example, in the ep when him and eddie shared an APT, steve was acting NORMAL and kind of COOL. he just LOOKED and SOUNDED like a NERD but was more of a Normal Guy, especially around EDDIE

anyone agree?

Yeah. And the inventing stuff.

Friends bring out different sides of people. They compliment each other. Maybe Eddie brought out the "cool" in Urkel lol.

It does, when I was growing up and was hanging around a certain guy who I thought was the coolest, I always would tell myself, DON"T DO OR SAY ANYTHING DUMB around him-lol


It's like i knew I had to act different

Yeah, maybe he wasnt that nerdy to them, but Waldo was so not smart, and Steve is the smnartest ever, so of course he think Waldo is dumb. Even nerds can have diffrent sides, I guess.

I liked Steve's bond with Mother Winslow. Estelle was one of my favorite characters, and I hated to see her phased out as the years went on. :(

I said this in another thread...I liked their bond too, and how she'd always be extra nice to Steve!!!

I actually thought a lot of the supporting/minor characters much more interesting than Steve/Laura, etc. Estelle, Rachel, Weasel, Waldo, Maxine, Lt. Murtaugh...they were all great and brought something special to the table. I loved how Lt. would always hit on Rachel and she'd always cut him down. :rofl:

I agree, they did have a bond with each other and I enjoyed their interactions.

Yeah, I've always noticed that. He was definitely nerdiest around Carl I'd say, just because of the accidents they always had together-LOL.

Wasn't Richie always friendly to him as well?

YUP, because he wasn't nerdy around him either

Richie always called him "Uncle Steve"!! :D

He was clumsy around Carl and Harriet, irritating around Laura, bright and respectful around Mother Winslow, really smart compared to Waldo, and nerdy in school.

Richie always called him "Uncle Steve"!! :D

That I thought was really adorable!!!!

Yes, it was. He was so good with Richie, especially when he (Richie) was a real little kid. :D

The actress, Rosetta LeNoire, was getting old, and her health got worse. So unfortuneately, she had to cut down on her working hours.

Steve was always good around Richie, and 3J. They looked up to him, while no one else did, maybe because they were so much younger than him, so they didn't think he was a "nerd" yet.

LOL that you made this thread because I automatically think back to anytime Waldo is in the room with Steve.

Waldo sometimes appeared to be more of a nerd than Steve at times. Cause anytime Waldo does or says something weird or funny, even Steve is like WTF LOL:lol: .

Yeah, the grandmother always saw the good in Steve, like in the episode when it was his birthday, and she said to him: "Because we love you"

i always loved the rachel/lt. murtah thing too. i used to think rachel didnt like him because he was white. but then i realized, she didnt like him because he was a moron! how he ever made it all the way to lieutenant is beyond me. still an entertaining charachter and i remember being sad that his charachter was discontinued during season 4.

Lt. Murtah was the nerd who actually changed his name to LOU so it would match Lt. Murtah. Rachel was turned off by his moronic behavior. :lol:
Remember, he wanted to burp her after dinner! :lol:

And once, he came to a Halloween party dressed as a soffa (!), asking women to "lie down on him". Rachel was NOT impressed by that...

Lieutenant Murtaugh wasn't a nerd though. He was too much of a moron to be a nerd.

and that sofa costume reference was the last time we ever heard of him. mabye some big fat lady lady sat on him causing him to be paralized for life and forcing him to quit the police force.

Yeah, who knows? :lol:
