I think she put the camera in steve's glasses because at the time he was staying at the winslows home so she was envy she wanted to make sure he was not sleeping around with laura at night behind her back its obvious he had a huge crush on the girl even if she was a little stuck up at times lol

I never liked Myra, except in the first episode she was introduced.

This may come as a shock to some but I never found her to be attractive. Maybe it was the personality of the character

Myra was probably my favorite female character on this show.
The writers tried their best to make her unsympathetic, but I was always on her side.

To be honest I wouldn't overanalyze hardly anything either Myra or Steve did in the show. Both characters were intentionally written to be over the top stereotypes to be played for laughs.

Or it's most likely the fact that "she" was played by Jaleel White pretending to be a woman! When the show became obsessed with Steve Urkel and all his stupid crap it wasn't funny anymore!

The fact that she was obsessed with annoying ass, stalking Urkel and kept on chasing after him season after season when it was obvious that he had eyes for Laura was a BIG turn off.

Default Michelle Thomas (RIP) Was Great As Myra Monkhouse...

Facts!!!

Michelle Thomas went from playing Theo Huxtable's girlfriend on The Cosby Show to playing Steve Urkel's girlfriend on Family Matters and she knocked both roles out of the park. I greatly enjoyed watching her in both roles.

Her bubbly personality and kind spirit jumped through the tv screen as Myra Monkhouse. Besides being a cutie pie, with beautiful eyes and smile, she was a very talented actress that passed away way too soon at the age of 30 due to stomach cancer. During the last 2-3 seasons of Family Matters she was often in pain when she showed up on the set of Family Matters but she still put on great performances as Myra Monkhouse.

To me, what made her character special was the fact that she had no complaints where Steve was concerned. She was the only one who loved him just the way that he already was.

God bless you always!!!
