Alyssa Milano "Sex" Tape That's not really a Sex Tape.

It's a joke video which supports the Syrian airstrike. What alot of people don't know is that we are indirectly helping Al Qaeda. Who are the enemy forces to the Syrian government.

BLAST FROM MY PAST! He Man and The Masters of the Universe

This is going to be a weekly series bringing back my nostalgia from the 80's and 90's. He-Man MOTU was one of my favorite cartoons. And I decided to see this in 2013. And this cartoon has not aged well at all.

Ever wonder why Dick isn't a common nickname anymore?

Dick used to be a common nickname for Richard like Bob is for Robert. But as the term Dick came to mean something else by the current generation. Now you can see how hilarious these men named Dick sound.

                                                                                 RIP

And here is my favorite.

Now you know why Dick isn't a common nickname anymore.

The 3 Biggest Similarities Between Happy Days and Family Matters

Both of these shows had long runs on ABC. Happy Days lasted for 10 seasons from 1974-1984, while Family Matters lasted for 8 seasons from 1989-1998. Both shows looked radically different  from their Pilot Episodes to their Series Finale. But the similarities do not stop there.

Both Shows Started Off as Spin Offs.

Surprisingly to most viewers. Both shows started off as Spin-Offs to other Sitcoms.

Happy Days started off as a Spin-Off of the  comedy anthology show Love American Style which starred Ron Howard(Richie Cunningham), Marion Ross(Marion Cunningham, and Anson Williams(Potsie Webber). With the patriarch Howard Cunningham, Brother Chuck and sister Joanie Cunningham played by different actors. 

Family Matters was a Spin-Off of the popular TV series Perfect Strangers as Harriet Winslow(Jo Marie Payton) was a regular character on Perfect Strangers for 2 seasons as the Elevator operator, and Carl Winslow(Reginald VelJohnson) appeared in a few episode of Perfect Strangers.

  I wished there was a crossover between Perfect Strangers and Family Matters. Balki in the same room as Steve Urkel would have been a trip! Mark Lynn Baker (Larry Appleton) appeared in one episode of Family Matters, but that was as a different character. Speaking of Urkel........

 Had Breakout Characters Who Became The Focal Point of the their shows.

The Fonz                                                                                                         Steve Urkel

Arthur Fonzarelli(Henry Winkler) was originally supposed to be a minor character on Happy Days

, and Steve Urkel(Jaleel White) was created for only one episode on Family Matters. But both of these characters got so  popular with the fans that the production staffs made them the central characters of their respective shows.

Here are some classic moments from the Fonz and Steve Urkel.

Fonzie Jumping the Shark.

Steve Urkel Doing Some Kung Fu as a Bruce Lee Wannabe. Both of these shows have long "Jumped The Shark" before that.

Relatives who disappeared With No Explanation and Totally Forgotten

Chuck Cunningham                                                                    Judy Winslow

Both shows had minor sibling characters who just written off and totally forgotten by the writers by the end of each series. Chuck Cunningham(Gavin O Herley) suddenly dissapeared from Happy Days sometime after Season 1, and was written off as Going off to college on a basketball scholarship), because according to Garry Marshall, "we realized that Fonzie was really the 'big brother' character the show needed". In the final episode, Howard comments that he's proud of his "two kids". 

And there was no explanation for Judy Winslow's dissapearance. As in real life. Jaime Foxworth(who'd act in porn in a few years) parents wanted a raise, and they writers decided to write her off. Just like Chuck earlier.  The later episodes of Family Matters revised the show's history so that Judy never existed and the only two Winslow children were Eddie and Laura. 

Another oddly occidental thing between these two shows was that Happy Days and Family Matters were both produced by Miller/Boyett Productions.
