Family Matters: Steve and Laura

Family Matters is still one of the best examples of the Black family represented on television. This show gave us a look at love in various stages, from Carl and Harriet maintaining their marriage to Mother Winslow finding love after the death of her husband. The biggest love story, of course, is Steve Urkel's (Jaleel White) relentless pursuit of Laura Winslow (Kellie Shanygne Williams). While their dynamic might be considered creepy by today's standards, at the time it felt more like a lesson that persistence pays off in the end.
