I like both of them, but Family Matters is probably my favorite of the two.

Family Matters. I used to like Full House until Michelle started getting on my nerves.

Laura Winslow is a highly underrated sitcom daughter of the '90s. Her character was a big reason the show lasted so long, IMO. Without her, Steve Urkel would only be half as interesting. She probably had more storylines than any other kid on the show, and sometimes even more storylines than Harriet. I've always looked at Laura as the D.J. Tanner of Family Matters.

Full House for me! Family Matters is a show I'd watch if there was absolutely nothing else on but it don't hold my interest as much as Full House.

Those were probably the top 5 best Family Matters characters.

Both were great and really fun in their day, but I give Family Matters the slight edge.

Both were decent but I'd have to choose" Full House" . I would've chosen family matters , but it had too much of urkel in the last few years.
