What a delight to speak with Fred and Steve! They have DECADES worth of juicy show business experience to discuss and had a hand in HUNDREDS of Family Matters episodes!

We get behind the scenes scoops on numerous classic sitcoms they've worked on like Silver Spoons, Webster, Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley & Malcolm and Eddie. Fred and Steve also came prepared with their celebrity encounters: how Sidney Poitier dealt with a Teamster, karaoke with Donna Summer, meeting Gregory Peck at a restaurant, parking in Clint Eastwood's spot, George Clooney's dating advice, protecting a woman from Steven Seagal, Gene Wilder not being recognized at the post office, and Jason Bateman directing an episode of Family Matters!

Speaking of Family Matters, we get into Season 2's "Finding The Words" featuring Paul Winfield as Harriette and Rachel's abandoning father, Season 4's "Driving Carl Crazy", Fred getting mugged while shooting Season 8's "Paris Vacation" episodes with director Rich Correll, the studio audience's first reaction to the "Stevil" Halloween character, co-creator William Bickley and Jaleel White's discussions about a reboot, and if there was an intension for a 10th season during the show's original 90's run.

Join us for this in-depth discussion!

It was a pleasure to speak to "Family Matters" cinematographer and director Gregg Heschong! He gives us the inside scoop on stunts, the visual palette he uses for different skin tones, the live action and animation blend in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", the compliment Ted Danson gave him on the set of "Becker", shooting a multi-camera sitcom outdoors with a studio audience present, and more! Check out his IMDB, he's got CREDITS!

We've got half of the duo that created Family Matters! Bill comes on the podcast to discuss how Garry Marshall appointed him showrunner of the hit 50's-retro sitcom Happy Days at just 26 years old, what the Fonz and Steve Urkel have in common, the dramatic film performance that led to Darius McCrary's casting as Eddie Winslow, how a predominantly white staff approaches writing for characters of color, Patrick Duffy's transition from Dallas to Step By Step, and more!

Wow, we didn’t expect Season 2 to end on a heavy note and we have thoughts. Carl struggles to make peace with a traumatic incident from a year ago while he was on police officer duty. Meanwhile, on a much-needed brighter note, Steve bribes Laura into a Johnny Gill concert date and Estelle has the hots for her hunk-of-the-month calendar.

PLUS, we reflect on what we’ve absorbed from the Winslows and Urkel and each provide our five favorite episodes from the season!

We’re swinging for the fences towards the conclusion of Season 2 with a Western dream sequence! Carl fights with Steve’s dad Dr. Urkel (otherwise known as “Herb” in past episodes) over a smelly compost heap and it leads an angry Steve to want to fight Carl to defend his dad’s honor. After turning Steve down, Carl dreams of them actually dueling in a Western!

A very problematic episode that can still somehow make us laugh! Carl realizes that he has to set up Lt. Murtaugh with Rachel if he wants to keep his job. Meanwhile, Steve buys an ID bracelet from shady dealer Waldo to give to Laura as the next step in their imaginary relationship. The outcome for both Steve and Murtaugh would have you think we’re supposed to sympatheize with them, but ehhhhhh, not so much!

Two HEAVY episodes within two weeks! The Winslows and Steve Urkel are introduced to this friendly grandfatherly figure named Jimmy Holmes. He goes from sharing action-packed bush pilot stories to suddenly revealing that he’s really Jimmy Baines, the father whom Harriette and Rachel haven’t seen since they were kids. The way Jimmy chooses to re-enter and establish a relationship with his adult daughters is very much up for debate. Let’s discuss!
