A Break down of the show Family Matters

[Taadow]

Yes, it had white writers and in no way shape or form do I believe its an accurate representation of a black american family but to say it wasn't a black show .


Sanford and Son had white and Jewish writers

There's a difference between a show "having white writers" and ALL their writers being white.

On Family Matters, they were doing and saying things in a non-"Black" way. You could feel it.

But it's still a black show. Again, I agree it's not authentic but a mostly black on screen cast means it's a black show. Amos n Andy was a black show and I am pretty sure everybody but the cast was white.

I used to love that show. That and the Cosby's as well as other sitcoms...but especially Family Matters and Cosby's showed blacks in a different light. Martin is my all time favorite as far as humor but Family Matters stood out the most. The Cosby sitcom stared a upper middle class black family with a doctor and lawyer as parents and they had a large family. This showed uninformed people who heavily believe in stereotypes that blacks can attain a middle class lifestyle and not live in a hood ghetto manner.

Family Matters was another show with a middle class working family where father was a cop and mother worked in retail I think. Then they had the grandma and aunt Rachael living there along with her son. Very interesting concept with the Stephan character and Steve getting in the chamber to make himself cool. I used to have a TV crush on Laura. It was also funny (but too obvious) when Steve played his cousin Myrtle who liked Eddie.

But yeah I never got why Steve didn't get on Myra. Even tho she was cray cray....she liked him for who he was and she was cute as hell. RIP to her. That show did teach life lessons but I was too young and inexperienced to see it. I'm sure a lot of us had women (dudes for bruhettes) who may not have been as fine as Myra...but they liked us for who we were even in our stages where we finding ourselves or going thru an ugly duckling stage. This show make u think that u will miss what u used to could get.

Thats the key to relationships, get with a woman who likes you for you.

I know a lot of us think Laura is overrated, but she became fine as hell in season 9

Laura was never ugly or nothing...but she lost me when she cut all her hair off.
I hate when broads do that.

sidebar: ‘member when she showed up on that episode of Moesha, and they tried
to tell us she was from France? Lmao, no. She was not.
