#12 Carl & Harriette Winslow - Family Matters
In 1989, the world was taken over by Steve Urkel, a geeky nerd played by Jaleel White, on the hit show, Family Matters. He was in love with his neighbor, Laura Winslow and was frequently at the home of the Winslows. The Winslow family was headed by an overweight cop, Carl Winslow, played by Reginald VelJohnson, and his stern but loving wife, Harriette Winslow, played by JoMarie Payton. Carl's mother lived there, and so did Harriette's sister.
Carl and Harriette Winslow were show's lead couple. Carl was a tough cop, but definitely wasn't one of those fit-looking men. He was a fat man. His wife wasn't that fat though.
