I thought I would share a book I found when shopping the other day Growing Up Urkel by Jaleel White (Author, Narrator), Simon & Schuster Audio (Publisher) I don’t know if you know who Urkel is but he was one of the key actors on the TV Show Faily Matters.
Family Matters was a show I watched with Suzzane and now Charlie and I watch reruns of it together. I have a question for you. Are you Team Urkel or Stephan and why? How about a snack? If so I know Urkel would ask for Cheese. What would you like and why? How about a ride in his Izeta? That was the coolest car ever.
About: Growing Up Urkel
An incisive and insightful memoir by one of the most beloved icons of nineties television Jaleel White, the actor who portrayed Steve Urkel on the hit sitcom Family Matters.
At the tender age of twelve, Jaleel White auditioned for the role of Steve Urkel, the socially inept genius, who was in love with his next-door neighbor, Laura.
Though Steve Urkel was intended to be in only one episode, Jaleel’s indelible performance catapulted Urkel into the pantheon of American pop culture. But success can cost as much as it pays. After nine years on the popular sitcom Family Matters, Jaleel is twenty-one, a UCLA undergrad, and adjusting to a world and industry that sees him as the nasally nerd in high water pants, suspenders, and coke bottle glasses.
In this wise and witty memoir, Growing Up Urkel takes you on a memorable journey through the peaks, valleys, and plateaus of fame and fortune.
