And this should have been Jaleel White's main show, not that weird "Family Matters." A show about a fam with a strong father figure. When you want a comedy that showed black people living the way black people wanted to see themselves live (high, wealthy, educated), this show was groundbreaking just like "The Cosby Show."
The mom is a teacher and the father is a construction worker. What I loved about this show was it was rougher and working-class. "Cosby" gets boring after a while for that reason. As a working-class kid, this show is closer to my life. Too bad that this aired on CBS, however. This should have been on ABC, Fox, or NBC.
