Family Matters

Family Matters is a show about a middle-class, African American family living Chicago. The show is a spin-off of the show Perfect Strangers. It focuses on the loving family composed of Carl Winslow (played by Reginald VelJohnson), Harriette Winslow (played by Jo Marie Payton and towards the end of the show she was played by Judyann Elder.), Edward Winslow (played by Darius McCrary), Laura Winslow (played by Kellie Shanygne Williams.) and the "lost" Winslow child, Judy Winslow (played by Valerie Jones in the pilot and played by Jamiee Foxworth until Season 5.). Also in the family is Rachel Crawford, Harriette's sister whose husband died and her son Richie Crawford (played by Telma Hopkins and Bryton McClure respectively.)
