I wonder what the plans were for these tv shows if the minor characters were not popular or pushed more. What would Happy Days be like if The Fonz was a minor character up until Richie left? The same goes for Family Matters. Urkel kind of took over the show toward the end. What would have happened if he was a minor character?
