"Family Matters" Packed With Lies?! | TMZ

Go home go home go home! I don’t have to take this, I’m going home.Β
LOL, Classic…my favorite was “Oops, did I do that”
+Woodley st jean
“Where’s Waldo?”
Stop by my page if you want a genuine laughΒ
Chicago’s been the worst ever not the safest you fucking idiot
You fucking idiot chicago murder rate has drop in 2008 from when it was in the 90’s. Who said chicago was the safest? I forget this is youtube and to many brainwashed zombies are on here.
+ToonsesΒ I’m from earth, what about you? Chicago murder rate has been low compared to what it use to be. And there are plenty of safe places in chicago unless you are talking about the hood. Then you could say the whole world is unsafe since people die everywhere.
+ToonsesΒ lmao totally misread his comment. Β chicago is actually experiencing lower murder rates compared to the times of yummy sandifer. please do your research before bashing someone who was actually right.
Lmfaooooo
Imagine Family Matters of today, Chiraq Edition!
Jay Love they do its called CHI comes On showtime u should check it out sometime
20 years ago, Seinfeld went out on a high note, Family Matters and Step By Step also said farewell. 1998 was the right time to end those long running sitcoms, it had to be done.
ir10031981 r i p carl breaking news
Jay Love ππππππ
This was the dumbest “interview” ever…
Janadu That was an attack, not an interview. He was surprised and they gave him no respect to ask for one. His face tells the story indeed.
Umm Carl is like 70 something and the show has been off the air for 16 years now. So what if he doesn’t know the theme song
MrSilksoul right!
That’s this person rachet way of calling you gay. Morinic.
Your prior comment says that it doesn’t matter if you are “friends” with gay people. It’s like saying “I’m not racist because I have a black friend.” SMH
The show had been off the air for 16 years (in 2014). almost 20 years now in May 2018. So who cares if he doesn’t know his show’s theme song? life exists outside of Family Matters. The same way Michael Jordan hasn’t played for and won for the Bulls since 1998.

….Were you guys bored?
No matter what happens to this world, I will always love Carl Winslow. Grew up watching this show, saved by the bell, full house, TGIF, saturday morning cartoons, boy meets world. Playing the PS1, twisted metal II, tomb raider, resident evil.
I’m loving the Twisted Metal love in this thread. TM: 1, 2 and Black forever.
TM: Head On is ok and still pretty fun also…
Lived the dream!
Crash Bandacoot!

…………so what?
Exactly

i think your known for lies in the Jvlogger community
TMZ is a tosser’s channel. It is the Nat Inquirer of Media.

Have some respect for the man. He was and still is an amazing actor. I loved him as Carl but you gotta remember that he’s quite aged since then I would understand if he doesn’t remember . TMZ is just a bunch of people who try to get the worse in actors. Other then that I’m glad Mr.Veljohnson is doing well
I haven’t seen Reginald since Family Matters ended. Good to see he’s still around and doing ok.
Jay M I saw him on “Chuck” and “That’s so Raven”.
He was on Like Mike starring Bow Wow
antoineedmundson21 he was on Meet the Browns
He was on Mike & Molly. That show also had a black cop named Carl and he lived with his grandma who is like a black Thelma Harper because in real life she’s much younger than she appears. Reginald played her boyfriend and preacher.
I saw him and harriett together in a hallmark channel Xmas movie
Reginald Johnson has been awesome since he was on Die Hard with Bruce Willis. He doesn’t need to remember Family Matters, no matter how decent of a show it was.
He was in Ghostbusters as well (as a cop.)
+D2K Prime He plays good cop roles
he was also in Turner and hooch with Tom hanks

He is still Carl Winslow
Jerry Leal Carl knows that will always be “Urkel”.
White America at work
Harlynn Grey fr brother,they wicked so be careful.
Chuck Bolderns lmao your rebuttal itself screams racism
In this circumstance it shouldn’t be a race thing but as usual it’s always a race thing smh I think it’s more about courtesy and giving just space.
get back in the kitchen b.
He doesn’t even remember his own song
Why would he know the theme song? He didn’t write it. Not like the cast had to listen to it before shooting episodes…
i bet you he knows ever word, he probably just doesn’t feel like being bothered
Brandon Smith-LaGrone , I guess saying “Oh lord!” when the paps ran up on him didn’t give it away. πππ
Crystal Downs – Lmao
“TMZ GO HOME GO HOME GO HOME!!!” Carl Winslow
Here’s a guy being kind and courteous to you jackoffs and you still have to take shots at him. No wonder you guys are so hated and few have any respect for you.
Tmz you guys are a thorn in the flesh mixed with being a parasite too! they need to go away asap!! And that commentar voice is beyond annoying!!!!! The man is much older now leave him alone!!
Every sitcom is filmed in California at a studio set , of course they weren’t in Chicago
Not every sitcom. Most, but not all.
Best TV dad from a Chicago based sitcom?!?! James Evans ring a bell?
