the series originally focused on the character of police officer carl winslow and his family: wife harriette, son eddie, elder daughter laura, and younger daughter judy (who appeared until the character was written out in season four). in the pilot episode, "the mama who came to dinner," the family had also opened their home to carl's street-wise mother, estelle (rosetta lenoire), usually known as "mother winslow." prior to the start of the series, harriette's sister, rachel crawford and her infant son, richie, had moved into the winslow household after the death of rachel's husband. the winslows' nerdy teenage next-door neighbor, steve urkel (jaleel white), was introduced midway through the first season in the episode "laura’s first date" and quickly became the focus of the show. the popular sitcom was a mainstay of abc's "tgif" lineup from 1989 until 1997, at which point it became part of the "cbs block party" lineup for its final season. "family matters" was produced by bickley-warren productions (1991–1998) and miller-boyett productions, in association with lorimar television (1989–1993) and later warner bros. television (1993–1998). as the show progressed, episodes began to center increasingly on steve urkel, and other original characters also played by white, including steve's suave alter-ego, stefan urquelle, and his female cousin, myrtle urkel.
