Urkel's first episode
Which episode was Steve Urkel's first appearance?
shareUrkel was first shown in just an opening scene in 4th or 5th episode in the first season. I think he tricks Carl from eating an ice cream sundae and then Urkel has it for himself. I don't think his name was even mentioned.
shareThose openings were added in for syndication later on.
Steve Urkel didn't appear until episode 13, 'Laura's First Date'

The look on Carl's face, when Urkel shows up, was priceless.
shareFirst appeared the fourth episode, then again in the 12th episode. He was only supposed to appear once but was so popular he joined the main cast at the start of season 2. The early seasons were pretty good but got too weird when Urkel started the transformation chamber story. Hard to believe it was a spin-off of Perfect Strangers, the shows were pretty different.
shareI believe his very first real appearance on the show was when he and Laura were both 12 and she needed a date to a school dance. Carl was unaware that she'd already gotten a date, so he decided to ask the next-door neighbor's kid, Steve Urkel to go out with her. He apparently was also unaware that Steve had been harboring a gigantic crush on Laura since they were in kindergarten, but had hidden it until then.
You can remember the episode by these little features:
- Steve was a short, shrimpy little guy with big glasses in a tux (tailored to his nerdy style)
- he was carrying flowers he'd stolen from the neighbor's garden, complete with the dripping roots still attached
- and when he first see's Laura, he yells very loudly "Wow! Are you wearing a bra?!"
- Laura had a dress made by Aunt Rachel that was black with turquoise ruffles, but when Harriet sees a loose thread, she tries ripping it out and ruins the sleeve, forcing Laura to put on a different dress for the dance
(this annoying "loose thread" gag showed up again 5 or 6 seasons later with a different dress)
Episode 12 Laura's First Date he gained lot of popularity millions of people around the world fell in love with him they never seen a black nerd before
