Jaleel White ("Erkel") discusses pratfalls and the passions of a wannabe star at Fanboy Expo

"Steve Erkel" was a name and character I was familiar with during the 1990s although I knew nothing of the show Family Matters. I learned at the Fanboy Expo last week that "Erkel," like the "Winnie Cooper" character on The Wonder Years, was only meant to be temporary. The "Erkel" character became so popular though, Jaleel White appeared as "Erkel" on other family sitcoms during the time as well as voiced Sonic on the saturday morning cartoon, Sonic The Hedgehog.

@patrickruth153 Oh Hi! I hope you had a good as time as I did. It was because of your question I learned Jaleel White also did the voice of Sonic on tv. I just thought he did "Erkel." Thank you so much for watching. It was a pleasure meeting you there. It seems like something I may want to check out again next year. 👍
