Family Matters
TV Series (1989 - 1998)
A perfect spin-off from Perfect Strangers: Family Matters focused on Harriet Winslow (the elevator operator from the Chronicle) and her family of sorts. Carl Winslow, her husband, was a dutiful cop, and a gruff and lovable father to three kids: Eddie Winslow, the rebel son; Laura Winslow, the smart-aleck daughter; and cute little Judy Winslow.

[show]The original ABC broadcasts, as well as the later airings on ABC Family, for episodes from the first three seasons use an extended version of the "As Days Go By" theme accompanied by clips from selected episodes. Syndication edits of "Family Matters" feature the abbreviated version of the theme used in season 4 through 6. On the ABC Family airings, there is an extended opening sequence, which presumably has not been used since the series originally aired on ABC.
[hide] - JoMarie Payton's Harriet Winslow originated in Perfect Strangers as an elevator operator. Reginald VelJohnson also appeared as Carl on the show.
- Carl, Eddie, and Laura are the only three characters to transform into a nerd. Carl and Eddie used Steve's transformation chamber and Laura become a nerd due to a Christmas wish.
