The Urkels
Spinoff of "Family Matters"

Takes place in 2006, Laura and Steve are happily married and living in Chicago (close to the Winslow household). Laura and Steve have one beautiful 3-year-old daughter named Danica, who is the light of both their lives. Laura works at the local news station, where she is a reporter (who anxiously wants to get to be an anchorwoman). Steve works as a science teacher at the local high school. Steve's boss/principal, Louis Duvane (Cedric the Entertainer) is a down-to-business, no-nonsense type of boss who is skeptical about how long Steve will last as a teacher in his school. Laura's brother, Eddie lives within walking distance of Laura and Steve's house, and often drops by whenever he feels like it (sometimes to their advantage and sometimes to their dismay). Eddie is still a bachelor looking for a good time...yet has found it with Laura's rival co-worker/nemesis, Brooke Bradley (Shannon Elizabeth).
