Corrected entry: When Eddie comes down the stairs to ask his father again about wanting new shoes, his father says no. Eddie goes back up the stairs. Next scene, Carl walks to the kitchen, and Eddie is sitting at the counter.
Family Matters (1989)
1 corrected entry in season 1
Continuity mistake: From the outside of the house, you can see the staircase and door are to the far left of the house. But from inside the house, you have a fireplace and the staircase to the right of the door. So you know it's not the same house they use in the show.
Carl: Go home! Go home! Go home!
Steve: I don't have to take this. I'm going home.
Trivia: When this show first went into syndication, a market in New England declined to pick it up, thinking it wouldn't be popular with their demographics. They ended up providing the show for free with the agreement that the market would end up paying for the broadcasting rights if the show reached a certain ratings threshold.
Question: Is it true that the show's set was burned down? Either way, why was the show ended so suddenly (before Laura and Steve's wedding was even shown)?
Answer: It was just cancelled. Read more here: http://www.kellie.de/end.htm.
