It's funny how laura would rather go out on a date with waldo then steve she was just stuck up lol, i saw the episode from season 3 Stop in the Name of Love and i think waldo and laura made the worst couple in history, it seemed like waldo behaved more normal towards maxine.

Then again, Waldo did not constantly force himself at her and stalk her like Steve did at the time.

Yeah, Waldo and Laura is the worst pairing in that show yet you people hate on the Steve and Laura relationship. You guys just hate seeing a black man falling in love with a brown skinned woman like Laura.

The reason Maxine broke up with Waldo was because he was kinda slow he never said anything that made since on every episode of the series except when someone offends him, plus Maxine thought he was a control freak he would get mad whenever she would have conversations with other boy's besides himself the guy was hiding in a garbage can to make sure no other guy comes near her for crying out loud lol.

I think that's because he was afraid that if he went out on dates with Laura and she got upset with him for doing something stupid like telling other boys at school that she slept with him her big bad brother who stands 6 foot 4 Eddie Winslow would beat him up, remember what Eddie almost did to Ted Laura's boyfriend who told his friends she had sex with him he was going to beat him up lol.

Yeah Waldo and Laura had nothing in common diff'rent personalities Waldo did everything backwards on the date what kinda guy dances fast to slow music unless he is drunk lol, we Dont hate on Laura because we think she is stuck up we Dont like how she treated Steve worse then anybody on the show its funny she treats her rude boyfriends better than Steve Urkel, the skin tone has nothing to do with Laura being darker skinned than Steve Urkel it has something to do with Laura scared to be seen around with Steve Urkel because her peers at school make fun of him and call him nerd.

Eddie didn't stop Daniel Wallace from trying to get in Laura's pants LOL. However, I kind of wished, in that episode where Daniel told Steve his intentions toward Laura right to Steve's face, that Eddie was listening on the other side of the kitchen door and went right through and kicked the crap out of Daniel!

Tia and Tamera were dogging Roger but nobody was bashing them for it. Lisa Turtle was a bitch to Screech, but nobody was jumping on her. Hillary was a bitch to Jazz but nobody was jumping on her. Whitley Gilbert, the QUEEN of bitchiness treated Dwayne like crap until she and Dwayne got involved yet nobody was jumping on her, but the moment that Laura Winslow treated Steve like crap, everybody will call her all kinds of names, and I don't think that's fair. If you are going to jump on Laura for that, do the same thing for Lisa Turtle, Hillary Banks, Whitley Gilbert, and Tia and Tamera.

I think that the reason why Laura is bashed the most about it is because she's brown-skinned, and she's not biracial. It's call light skin and biracial privilege. It seems like the only woman that can get away with being a bitch are those that fit the European standard of beauty. and since Laura looks like a regular black woman from around the way, she's dogged the most and I don't like that.

And back to Waldo and Laura. That pair doesn't fit at all. Laura is too intellectual and too much woman for Waldo. I think that Waldo and Maxine make a very good couple. Maxine is a little ditsy herself. Their chemistry is so good together. I wish that they didn't write Waldo off on the 8th season. I think that the 8th season is worse than the 9th season. They should've show Waldo and Maxine having a double wedding with Steve and Laura in the last season. Family Matters dropped the ball in later seasons.

The reason people dont bash Roger from Sister Sister was because he dressed like all the other boys at school he was not geeky or nerdy he was just desperate to get girls to go out with him on dates he was just a kid he was 14 or 15 years old that's what hormonal boys do at that age lol,Tia and Tamera friends did not bash Roger because he was not a stalker like Steve Urkel lol.

Even if Laura Winslow was light Skinned like Steve Urkels girlfriend Myra Monkhouse she would still be bashed for being mean to him, put yourself in Laura's shoes she gets hit on by boys at her school all the time in her life having guys flirt or ask her out on dates 24/7 now she has Steve Urkel who bugs her everyday with no peace that would make you kinda scared.

No matter who you wanted Steve to end up with, you have to admit in the first season, nobody would have guessed Steve and Laura would end up together. Steve didn't even show he had true feelings for her until the episode where they were "married" for a class project. In season one, Laura didn't even want Steve to be within 20 ft. of her (with good reason), but at the end of the series, she was in love with him and engaged to be married to him. How ironic, in a way.

Yeah, for a moment at first, but then I will get over it, and see what kind of man he is afterwards.

Yeah, the first season doesn't count. He had a crush on Laura on the first season, but Laura was the meanest to him on the first season I admit that, but as seasons progressed, so did their relationship. It's normal to change your feelings from hate to love. I just wish Steve and Laura would've done it sooner than season 9, and I wish that it was handled better.

Yeah he had a crush on Laura before he was even on the show but he did not stalk her until Carl Winslow tried to get him and Laura to go out on a date ever since Steve Urkel stalked the Winslows for 9 years lol, a big mystery was why on earth did Steve Urkel have feelings for Laura he spend half his life chasing after a girl when he could have gone out with lots of other girls, Carl could have told Steve that he cant come to the house bothering Laura or he will have to arrest him just to scare him away, Steve was a complete nutcase why do you think Laura went out with Waldo instead of Steve Urkel that's easy Waldo never tried to sneak into her room at night like Steve Urkel did lol.
