(Carl looks at the travel itinerary and sees Lake Geneva, WI. He feels embarrassed and ashamed.) Carl: Honey, I'm sorry for my earlier outburst. I didn't know that you'd take the time to give me what I wanted. Harriette: Of course I did. Every year, we always took the kids' suggestions to go where they wanted for our family vacations. They never took you into consideration because the trip you wanted to go was so boring, and they found you too much of a cheapskate. I thought it would be nice if for once, We went where You Wanted.

If I were Harriette, when Carl said he was going to the kitchen, I would've said, "there's a slice of HUMBLE PIE on a plate in the refrigerator for you. Enjoy!" And yes, Mother Winslow was VERY good at putting Carl in his place when it was necessary. I always loved when she said, "way to go, Carl" ever time Carl messed up.

This was by far 1 of my favorite scenes in FM's history IMO. I can relate to Carl in this video because I hardly ever get my way with the wife and kids either, Granted, i never flipped out like he did but at times they surprise me and It makes me feel good whenever we go somewhere I want to go :)

Eddie DeSilva Steve made the show. When he came it made the show famous . Family Matters was boring without Urkel. When he came it was better. Carl is the 2nd funniest Steve is the funniest .

[@avidfilmbuff7830]

Ephraim Nana Antwi I think the introduction of Urkel brought out the best in Carl. So I agree that Carl was the funniest character in the show, but we would never have seen this version of Carl if it wasn’t for Urkel driving him crazy.

[@eph_loves_80s74]

Avid Film Buff No Steve is the funniest character on the show. Urkel had the audience laughing in one episode. He already became an instant hit with the viewers after one episode. So Steve is the funniest Carl would be second but Steve is the first

Avid Film Buff and the fact that Steve saved Carl a bunch of times from getting killed

Family Matters Was Successful And So Relatable, Didn't Need Controversy Nor Dysfunctional Families Nor Lack Of Morality Or Lack Of Positive Family Values. Then Family Matters Had The Most Action. Off-Camera They Had A Chicago Bomber, Murder Case/Serial Killer Cases/Assignment And Gang Violence-2,000 vs 10,000 Raptors vs 15th Street Gang And Lots Of Violence/Shooting The Victims. And Eddie, Steve And Waldo, After Being In The Army, They Not Only Became Friends With The Army, But They Visited The Soldiers After Drafted And There Was War, Explosions-Fire(Happened 10 Times,). The Season Finale Had Steve Saving The Globe. And Carl Took Down Armed-Thugs On A Regular Basis. Everyone Carl Took On On-Camera Were Either Bigger/Taller Or There Were A Lot Of Them.
